What I Need to Know When You’re Locked Out

I ask everyone these questions so I can get to you fast.

Where are you?

Give me the nearest cross streets or the full address. Tell me if you’re at a house, business, apartment complex, store or parking lot.

What are you locked out of?

A house, apartment, business or vehicle. For a car, tell me the year, make and model.

What’s the Best Number to Reach You?

I quote the full price on the phone, not at the curb. The $49 service call covers coming to you anywhere in my service area, day or night, and it goes toward the job.

Save my number so you can call back: 520-442-5008, open 24 hours in Tucson, AZ.

What It Costs, Before I Leave

I ask these questions so I bring the right tools for your home, business or car.

The $49 service call goes toward the job. There are no surprise after-hours charges when I arrive.

Will My Insurance Pay for the Locksmith?

Have roadside assistance through your car insurance? It may cover the cost. Keep your receipt and send it in to get paid back.

Why I Check That You’re Allowed In

For a Vehicle

Have these ready:

The registration, title or insurance card, plus a photo ID that matches the owner.

For a House Lockout

Have a lease, a utility bill, a mortgage statement or an ID with that address ready.

Left Your Driver’s License Inside?

You can often show it’s yours another way, like your Arizona MVD Now account on your phone. Tell me when you call, and we’ll sort it out before I head over.

How I Get You Back In

I get you back in 24/7 in Tucson. I open most door locks, including many Kwikset smart locks.

Picking comes first: I try picking or bypassing the lock first, every time.
Deadbolts and knobs: I use bypass tools or lock picking on both.
Cars and trucks: I open most cars, trucks and heavy-duty vehicles with lockout tools made for them.
Homes: I pick or bypass most home deadbolts and knob locks to get you back inside.

Will You Drill the Lock if It Can’t Be Picked?

Yes, but only as a last resort, after everything else fails. I carry replacement locks and can match the color, style and key. Be careful with anyone who goes straight to drilling. See our House Lockout Page.

What Happens After I Get You In

I tell you the price before I start, including what a replacement would cost. If a locksmith's first move on an ordinary lock is to drill, that's a red flag. See house lockout page.

I check that the lock still works, for example that the key turns and the bolt moves. If it was damaged before I got there, I’ll tell you whether it needs a rekey or a new lock, and what that costs.

What If the Key Isn’t in the Car?

You may not know if the keys are in the car. That’s why I ask for your car’s details first. If the keys aren’t inside, I can make a new key once we confirm it.

Does a Spare Key Cost More Late at Night?

Here is the tip nobody mentions until it's too late: get a spare key. A spare made during the day costs less than an emergency key at 2 a.m. on a Sunday. See car key replacement.
