Locked out, a key snapped off, or a door that won't secure after a break-in. Call the dispatch line, say where you are, and get a price before anyone sets off.
Dispatch line
Prices are quoted on the phone first. The final figure is confirmed before work starts.
Don't push the broken piece deeper or try superglue. A locksmith can usually extract the fragment and the lock keeps working. Key extraction is posted from $19.00 for home and business locks and from $100.00 for vehicles.
Call the police first if anyone may still be inside or you need a report. Take photos. Then a locksmith can repair or replace the damaged lock and reinforce the strike so the door closes securely tonight.
The listed hours are Monday through Sunday, all day. Availability still varies with demand and distance, so call to check for your address. Ask whether night rates apply.

Yes. Expect to show ID or proof that you live at the address or own the car. It protects you.
Most can be picked or bypassed. If a high-security lock needs drilling, you should be told and given the cost first.
