What affects the price for house lockout?
The exact price for house lockout depends on your specific lock, hardware, and timing. The technician inspects the situation on-site and confirms the exact price before any work begins:
-
Type of lock
A standard knob lock is simpler than a deadbolt, a smart lock or a high-security cylinder.
-
Number of locks engaged
A door with both a knob and a deadbolt locked takes longer than a single latch.
-
Non-destructive vs. drilling
Most locks can be opened without damage. If drilling is the only option, the technician explains why and confirms the price first.
-
Extra work after entry
Rekeying or replacing a lock after you're inside is quoted separately before work begins.
The technician tells you the exact price before starting. No work begins without your approval.

House Lockout FAQs
Will the lock have to be drilled?
Usually not. Most residential locks can be opened by picking or bypass tools without damage. If a lock can only be drilled, the technician tells you and confirms the price before doing it.
What proof do I need that I live there?
A photo ID with the address, or a document such as a lease, utility bill or mail addressed to you. If those are inside, they can be checked once the door is open.
I rent my home. Can I still get help?
Yes, as long as you can show you live there. Check your lease first — some landlords require you to contact them, or to give them a key if a lock is changed.
Should I rekey my locks after losing my keys?
If lost keys could be linked to your address, rekeying makes the old keys useless. It can often be done during the same visit — ask the technician for the quote.
Can a technician open a smart lock?
Many smart locks have a backup keyway or emergency battery contacts. Tell the dispatcher the brand so they can confirm before sending someone.
