Locked out at 10pm on a Sunday — they arrived in under 25 minutes. Professional, friendly, and priced exactly what they quoted on the phone. Highly recommend for anyone in Philly.M.R., Center City, PhiladelphiaHouse lockout

Residential Locksmith in Greater Philadelphia
House lockouts, rekey, lock change, and smart lock installation for homeowners and renters across Philadelphia and the surrounding counties.
Residential Locksmith Services
We work on homes, apartments, condos, and townhouses throughout Greater Philadelphia. Every job starts with a free phone estimate.
House Lockout
Locked out of your home? We dispatch immediately and aim to reach you within 20–30 minutes anywhere in Greater Philadelphia. We use non-destructive entry whenever possible — most lockouts are resolved without drilling.
Rekey Locks
Just moved in, lost a key, or changed roommates? Rekeying reconfigures the lock pins so old keys no longer work — without replacing the hardware. It’s faster and more affordable than a full lock change and just as secure.
Lock Change
Upgrading worn or outdated hardware? We supply and install Grade 1 deadbolts, knob sets, lever handles, and high-security locks from Schlage, Kwikset, Medeco, and Mul-T-Lock. Old hardware removal included.
Lock Installation
New door, new construction, or adding a lock where there wasn’t one? We drill, prep, and install on wood, metal, or fiberglass doors. Proper backset and door prep included.
Smart Lock Installation
We install and configure smart locks from Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, Yale Assure, and August. Keypad, fingerprint, or app-based access — we handle installation and walk you through setup.
File Cabinet & Mailbox Locks
We service filing cabinet locks (including lost-key situations) and residential mailbox lock replacements.
What to Know
Before We Arrive
- House lockout: Have a photo ID or document showing you live at the address. We’re required to verify before entry.
- Rekey or lock change: Proof of ownership (lease, deed, or utility bill) and one working key if rekeying.
- Smart lock setup: Have your phone charged and your Wi-Fi password ready.
- All jobs: We provide a verbal estimate over the phone and a written confirmation on-site before work begins. We do not charge until you approve.

Quick Reference
Rekey vs. Lock Change
Rekey — best for:
Move-in, roommate change, lost keys, adding all locks to one key. Your existing hardware stays; only the pin configuration changes.
Lock change — best for:
Worn or damaged hardware, security upgrade, landlord liability requirements, or when the lock brand isn’t rekeyable.

What Residential Customers Say
★★★★★
We had our entire office rekeyed after a staff change. The technician was thorough, explained everything clearly, and finished in half the time I expected. Great service for a great price.T.K., King of PrussiaCommercial rekey

Lost my only car key. They came to my location in Norristown and had a replacement key cut and programmed on the spot. Saved me a trip to the dealership and hundreds of dollars.D.S., NorristownCar key replacement
