Real reviews from Raleigh homeowners, drivers, and businesses we have helped.
“I left my keys in my car late at night in Raleigh. I called and they came out and got me in with no damage at all. Really good help when I needed it.”
“David was a lifesaver! I locked myself out and he came over, was super friendly, explained what he was doing, and got me back in without any damage.”
“Great service from David! He showed up on time, was very professional, and got the job done. He made the whole process stress-free, and the price was fair too.”
“Great prices and great work. You won't be disappointed. I will definitely use them again if I need help.”
We start at the door, not with a sales pitch. We look at the lock, the frame, and how the door sits, because a sticking deadbolt is often a frame or strike problem rather than a bad lock.
Once we know what is going on, we lay out the options in plain terms. Sometimes a rekey solves it, sometimes a worn lock is better replaced, and we will tell you which way we lean and why.
You hear the price before any work starts. If the job changes once we are into it, we stop and talk it through before we keep going.
When the work is done, we test every door we touched, hand back your keys, and make sure the lock turns the way it should from both sides.
Most of the calls we take for high-security locks fall into a handful of familiar shapes. Here are a few we see often around Raleigh and the rest of the Triangle:
A tenant hands back the keys and the landlord needs the locks changed before the next renter picks up theirs.
A house was on the market with a lockbox, and the owner wants the showing keys voided once the sale closes.
A front-door deadbolt has started to drag, and turning the key takes two hands on a cold morning.
A family moves into a resale home off North Hills and wants every exterior door working on a single key before the first night.
If we spot something else worth knowing about, a loose hinge, a strike that is about to give, a door that is dropping, we will mention it. You decide what to do about it.
We keep the work area tidy, clean up after a drill or a hardware swap, and leave your door looking like we were never there apart from the lock working better.
For lockouts and rekeys on a home, we may ask for proof that you live there or have the right to be on the property. It protects you as much as anyone, and any honest locksmith should do it.
How many doors or locks are involved changes the math. Keying several locks alike in one visit usually works out better per door than calling us back for one lock at a time.
The condition of the door and frame plays a part. A lock that fails because the door has dropped or the strike is chewed up needs that underlying issue fixed, not just the lock swapped.
The type of lock or hardware matters. A basic cylinder is one thing; a high-security or restricted system is another, and the parts cost more because they do more.
Where you are and when you call factors in too, and we will give you an honest arrival window for your spot before anyone is committed to anything.
What a job costs comes down to a few honest things, and we would rather explain them than hide behind a vague number.
On homes we work with the lock types you already know from the hardware aisle, from standard knob and lever sets to single- and double-cylinder deadbolts, plus keypad and smart locks for keyless entry. We can keep your doors on one key or set up separate keys where that makes more sense.
If you are not sure what you have or what you need, that is normal. Tell us what the door is doing, or send a photo, and we will point you the right way before anyone commits to anything.
We are a mobile locksmith based in Raleigh, which means the work happens where you are. Around the city we get out to the Village District, Five Points, Midtown, and Hayes Barton regularly, and we cover the wider Triangle including Knightdale, Chapel Hill, Holly Springs, Garner, and Apex.
Because we live and work here, we are used to the doors and hardware common to this area, from older homes inside the beltline to the newer subdivisions and offices going up around the edges of Wake County. That local footing is part of why High-Security Locks tends to go smoothly rather than turning into a guessing game.
Our goal is always the least invasive route. Most lockouts and rekeys leave no marks at all, and where drilling is the only option we will tell you before, not after.
In most cases, yes. If your existing key and cylinder are compatible, we can key new hardware to match so you are not adding keys to your ring.
