Locksmith FAQ

How do I know a locksmith is legitimate?

Ask for their business name and license (if your state requires one) before they arrive, and confirm the price verbally before any work starts. Be wary of a locksmith who won't give a business name over the phone or quotes a very low price then raises it on arrival.

Should I rekey or replace a lock after losing my keys?

Rekeying (changing the internal pins so old keys no longer work) is usually cheaper and faster than full lock replacement, and is sufficient in most cases unless the lock itself is damaged or outdated.

How much does a locksmith cost?

Cost depends on the service, time of day, and number of locks involved — evening, weekend, and overnight calls typically cost more than business-hours service. Use our estimator above for a rough range.

Are smart locks actually secure?

Quality smart locks from reputable brands generally meet standard security grades and add convenience features like remote access and codes for guests — but always check the specific security rating rather than assuming all smart locks are equal.
