Locksmith Questions & Answers
Straight answers to the questions Baltimore customers ask us most about car keys, lockouts, rekeys and lock changes. Still not sure? Call or text (443) 699-8083.
How Do I Know the Price?
Tell us what you need and we can give you an estimate on the phone. The final price is confirmed on site before we start, because some problems only show up when we see them: a lock that is broken inside, a key bought online that can't be programmed, or a key with a missing chip. Nothing starts without your OK.
Locked out of your house? We get you back in fast, without damage. We also rekey locks after a move or a lost key, and replace worn or broken locks and deadbolts.
Office or store lockouts, commercial lock changes and rekeys, so only the right people have keys. We work with offices, shops, warehouses and rental properties.
New car keys, key fobs and push-to-start keys, cut and programmed right at your car. Locked out? We open your car without scratches, 24 hours a day.
Car Keys
Can you make a car key if I lost all my keys?
Yes. We come to your car and cut and program a new key on the spot. No original key needed, and no tow truck to the dealer.
Is a locksmith cheaper than the dealer?
Usually, yes. And you skip the tow and the wait for an appointment, because we make the key where your car is parked.Master keys & cylinders
Can you program key fobs and push-to-start keys?
Yes. We program new and spare fobs and smart keys right at your car.More about panic bars

Most American and Asian brands: Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevrolet, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Jeep, Dodge, Ram and more. Call us with your year, make and model.Storefront locks & keypads
Lockouts, Home & Business
Will you damage my door or my car?
No. We use tools made to open doors and cars without damage. Drilling a lock is only a last resort, and we tell you before.
Should I rekey or change my locks? Rekey if your locks work fine and you just need new keys; old keys stop working. Change them if they are worn, broken, or you want an upgrade like a deadbolt, smart lock or high-security lock.
