Expertly Resolved FAQ: Broken Key Extraction
Do I need to make an appointment or can you come now? expand_more

Both work! For emergencies, we prioritize your call. For scheduled work like lock installation or rekeying, we can book appointments that fit your schedule. Tell us your preference when you call.

How soon can you get to me? expand_more

Arrival times are subject to location, traffic conditions, and current dispatch volume. We prioritize emergency lockout requests and maintain a network of mobile technicians across the region to ensure a professional response. We provide an honest, professional arrival estimate during your initial consultation and maintain active communication as our technicians depart.

What should I do while waiting for the locksmith? expand_more

Prioritize your safety by staying in a well-lit area or nearby open business. Please avoid attempting forced entry or DIY bypass techniques, as these often lead to structural hardware damage that can complicate the resolution and lead to unnecessary hardware replacement. Have proof of property ownership ready to present to our technician upon arrival. We will maintain communication as our mobile lab transit to your location.

What if my commercial lockout also triggers the alarm? expand_more

We work with you to coordinate with your alarm company before entry. Many clients have us on their authorized list. If needed, we can wait while you contact monitoring to prevent a false alarm response.

Do I need to prove I own the property during a lockout? expand_more

Yes, for your protection and ours. We require valid ID matching the address, registration for vehicles, or other proof of residency. This protects you from unauthorized entry. If you're a renter, a lease or utility bill works too.

Will you damage my lock getting me in? expand_more

No, our trained technicians use professional non-destructive entry techniques. We have specialized tools and training to unlock doors without damaging your locks, doors, or vehicle.
