"Needed both door and ignition locks rekeyed on my older Chevy Silverado after losing my key ring. Kwikey handled it all at my workplace parking lot. New keys for everything, tested multiple times. Extremely convenient and affordable."
"Commercial safe moved and installed in our back office. These things are incredibly heavy but the team did it professionally without damaging floors or walls. Also showed us how to program the combo."
"Key wouldn't come out of the ignition on my GMC Sierra. Steering wheel wasn't locked—it was the ignition switch. Kwikey replaced it in my driveway and now it works perfectly. No tow truck needed!"
Everything You Need to Know About Lock Change After Break-In
What information do you need when I call? expand_more
For the most efficient service, have ready: your location (address or cross streets), type of lockout (home, car, business), vehicle year/make/model if automotive, and any details about your lock type if you know them. This helps us dispatch the right tech with the right tools.
Will unlocking my car cause any damage? expand_more
No. We use professional air wedges and long-reach tools designed for car entry without damage. These are the same tools AAA technicians use. Your car will look exactly as it did before we arrived.
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.
Are you available on holidays? expand_more
We do our best to accommodate emergencies during holidays and extended hours. Our mobile service operates Mon-Thu & Sun 7:00AM-10:00PM and Fri 7:00AM-4:30PM. We are closed on Saturdays. If you have an urgent lockout during our operating hours on a holiday, give us a call and we'll do everything we can to help.
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 you bring hardware with you or do I need to purchase locks? expand_more
Our mobile units are stocked with a comprehensive inventory of Grade 1 and Grade 2 locks, deadbolts, and high-security hardware. While we carry components from industry-leading brands for same-day resolution, we can also source specialized hardware to meet your unique architectural or security requirements.
