Emergency locksmith FAQ
Should I call the police before a locksmith after a break-in?
Yes. Call 911 or the police first, keep everyone safe and leave the damaged lock as it is until it has been documented. Then call us to secure the door.
How much does an emergency call cost?
It depends on the lock, the job and the time of day. We give you a quote on the phone and confirm the price on site before work begins.
Can you open a safe or file cabinet?
Yes. We open locked file cabinets, safes and office doors and can repair or replace the lock afterwards.
