One mobile locksmith. Every residential lock service.

Most residential locksmith calls fall into a handful of repeat scenarios: a lockout, a rekey after moving, a smart lock upgrade, a post-break-in priority change, or a one-off oddity like a stuck patio door or a broken mailbox key. We handle every one of them from the same van. No second visit, no second invoice, no "we will have to come back tomorrow."

Our technicians are ALOA-certified (Associated Locksmiths of America, the U.S. trade body), and our automotive team holds NASTF VSP authorization. For residential work that translates to: trained on every major brand (Schlage, Yale, Kwikset, Baldwin, Emtek, Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA Abloy, Schlage Primus), every smart-lock platform (August, igloohome, Aqara, Level, RemoteLock), and every common home-security hub (ADT, Vivint, SimpliSafe, Ring, Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit).

We are mobile-only. Every job happens at your door, whether that is your driveway, your garage, your condo unit, or your gated entry. No shop visit required. Fixed phone quote before our crew leaves the depot. No on-site upcharges, no surprise fees, no "we will know when we get there" pricing.

How It Works

From your call to working locks in 5 steps

Same protocol for every job. No surprises, no upselling on site, no second visit needed.

  1. 1

    Call us with the basics

    Tell us what you need (lockout, rekey, smart lock install), how many doors, and any complicating factors (broken key, damaged frame, smart hub model). We give you a fixed phone quote.

  2. 2

    Mobile tech dispatched in 15-30 minutes

    ALOA-certified, background-checked technician in a marked vehicle. You receive an ETA via SMS. Photo-ID verification on arrival is standard.

  3. 3

    On-site assessment

    Tech inspects the existing hardware, confirms the scope matches the phone quote, and walks you through any options (e.g., rekey vs replace, smart vs traditional).

  4. 4

    Non-destructive service

    Lishi picks, decoders, and bump-resistant techniques first. Drilling only when every alternative fails. New hardware aligned and tested before sign-off.

  5. 5

    Final test, keys, and warranty

    You operate every lock yourself to confirm. New keys (3 cut by default), spare cylinders, smart lock app credentials, and written warranty handed over. Paid by card, Zelle, Apple Pay, or cash.

Common Scenarios

When people actually call us

Six real-life situations that account for the majority of residential locksmith jobs. Recognize yours? Most are same-day.

Just closed on a home

Full-home rekey within 24 hours of closing. You have no idea how many copies the previous owner gave to landscapers, cleaners, neighbors. $50-$200 buys you peace of mind.

Tenant moving out / new tenant

Standard turnover rekey between tenants. Some landlords switch to smart locks with rotating codes to avoid coordinating physical key handoffs forever.

After a break-in

Priority same-day dispatch. We replace every compromised lock with high-security hardware and document the work with photos for your insurance claim.

After divorce or separation

Discreet, fast rekey of all entry points. Includes mailbox, garage, and any safes. We can also remove a previous spouse from existing smart-lock apps.

Short-term rental / Airbnb host

Per-stay rekey gets expensive. Most hosts switch to igloohome, RemoteLock, or August smart locks with codes that auto-generate from your booking platform.

Upgrade after a security scare

Neighborhood break-ins, a lost key found in a public place, or suspicious activity all point the same way. A high-security cylinder swap (Medeco, Mul-T-Lock) and restricted-keyway system buys you key control no big-box store can copy.

Rekey vs Replace. Which one do you need?

Rekey ($25-$50/cyl) changes the pin configuration inside your existing lock. Same hardware, new keys. Best for: post-closing, tenant turnover, lost keys, divorce. Replace ($75-$200/lock) swaps the entire lockset. Best for: broken hardware, dated style, upgrade to high-security (Medeco, Mul-T-Lock) or smart locks (Schlage Encode, Yale Assure). For most homes after moving in, rekey is the right call and saves 60-75%.

Why Trust 4Keys Locksmith?
Stop! Don't Get Scammed by "Fake Locksmiths"

Your home is your security. The wrong locksmith can drill out hardware that did not need drilling, leave you with a bill 5x what was quoted, or (worst of all) hand a copy of your key to someone you do not know.

Background-Checked Techs

Every dispatched technician passes a background check. We know who is at your door.

Non-Destructive First

Lishi picks, decoders, bump-resistant techniques. Drilling is the last resort, never the first.

Fixed Phone Quote

No "starting at $19" bait. Real total quoted before dispatch. No on-site upcharges.

Warranty in Writing

New hardware installations come with a written hardware + labor warranty. Service issues: we come back, no charge.

FAQ - Residential Locksmith FAQ

Got questions? We have answers. If you don't see your question below, call us anytime - we're available 24/7.

Lock rekeying typically runs $25 to $50 per cylinder. A full-home rekey (front, back, garage entry, side gate, usually 4 to 8 cylinders) runs $50 to $200 total with all keys matched to one. Done on-site in about 45 minutes. Significantly cheaper than full hardware replacement ($75 to $200 per lock). Final price quoted on the phone before dispatch.
Rekeying changes the internal pin configuration of your existing cylinder so old keys no longer work. The visible hardware stays the same. Lock replacement swaps the entire hardware for new. Rekey is right for: after closing, tenant move-out, Airbnb turnover, lost keys, or divorce. Replace is right for: broken hardware, outdated style, upgrade to high-security or smart locks. Rekey saves roughly 60 to 75%.
All major brands: Schlage Encode, Yale Assure, August Wi-Fi (4th gen and View), Kwikset Halo, igloohome, Aqara U200/U300, Level Lock+, and RemoteLock. We install same-day with full Wi-Fi pairing, family-code generation, and integration with ADT, Vivint, SimpliSafe, Ring Alarm, Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and SmartThings. For short-term rental hosts, we configure auto-rotating guest codes tied directly to Airbnb, Vrbo, or Hospitable.
Call us immediately for same-day priority dispatch. We replace every compromised lock with high-security hardware (Medeco M3, Mul-T-Lock MT5+, ASSA Abloy DC, or Schlage Primus). We also document the work with timestamped photos and a written report you can hand to your insurance carrier or HOA. Most insurance policies cover lock replacement after a forced-entry incident, so keep the invoice.
Yes. We install Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA Abloy DC, and Schlage Primus deadbolts. All four lines are pick-resistant, drill-resistant, bump-resistant, and use restricted keyways. That means keys can only be duplicated by an authorized dealer (not Home Depot, Lowes, or kiosks), so you maintain key control. Best fit for valuable homes, multi-family buildings, and rental properties.
Yes. Two paths: (1) per-stay rekey at $50 to $95 per turnover, or (2) one-time smart lock install with auto-rotating codes tied to your booking calendar. Compatible platforms include igloohome (linked to Airbnb), RemoteLock (PMS integrations), August (manual codes), and Schlage Encode (with Smart Things or Resort Stays bridge). Most hosts who run more than 3 turnovers a month find the smart lock pays back in 4-6 months.
Yes. We service USPS-approved cluster mailboxes (CBU), wall-mount residential boxes, freestanding curbside, and condo mail room systems. New keys typically cut in under 10 minutes on-site. For HOA cluster boxes we coordinate with property management when required.
Yes. We open combination dial, electronic keypad, and biometric residential safes including in-floor and wall-mounted models, gun safes (Liberty, Cannon, Browning), and document fire safes (SentrySafe, Honeywell, First Alert). Manipulation, decoding, and bypass techniques first. Drilling is the last resort and rarely needed.
Yes. We dispatch 24/7/365 with a real on-call ALOA-certified technician. Not a national call-center redirect. Most overnight residential calls are front-door lockouts, locked-out-of-condo, and patio sliding door lockouts. Non-destructive entry tools (Lishi picks, bump-resistant techniques) so no damage to the door or cylinder. Night rates are published upfront.
Yes. We carry HOA-approved cylinder profiles (Schlage, Kwikset, Baldwin, Emtek) and finishes (satin nickel, antique brass, oil-rubbed bronze) to match architectural standards. For gated communities we coordinate with security/concierge for tech access and arrival notification. Master-key systems for HOA common areas (gym, pool, mail room, package room) are part of our standard offering.
A restricted keyway is a patented key blank profile that can only be cut by authorized dealers. Standard keyways (KW1, SC1) can be duplicated at Home Depot, kiosks, or any locksmith. Restricted keys (Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA Abloy DC, Schlage Primus) cannot. That means when you give a key to a contractor or housekeeper, you control whether they can copy it. Critical for estates, valuable homes, multi-tenant properties, and offices.
Fixed phone quote. The number we give you on the call is the number you pay. The only exception is if the actual scope is materially different from what was described (e.g., you said one cylinder, it turns out to be a high-security commercial unit). And even then, we explain the adjustment and get authorization before any extra work begins. No on-site upcharges, ever.
