About this service

An emergency lock problem never picks a good time. Keys disappear at the end of a long shift. A door slams shut with the stove still on. A key snaps in a lock at night. Our emergency service exists for exactly these moments. One call routes you to the nearest of six verified Eastern Connecticut bases, and the closest available locksmith heads your way.

When to call

  • You are locked out of your car, home, or business.
  • A key broke off inside a lock or ignition.
  • A child, pet, or running vehicle is involved and you need priority dispatch.
  • A lock failed and you cannot secure the property.
  • You lost your keys and worry someone else has them.

How it works

Tell us where you are

Call or text your town and what happened. If a child or pet is inside, say so first and we prioritize your call.

Closest base responds

Dispatch routes your request to the nearest available verified location, so travel time stays short in most Eastern Connecticut areas.

Damage free entry first

We confirm your ID and ownership, quote the job before starting, and use non destructive methods first. Most emergencies end in one visit.

What to expect

  • A real time ETA confirmed before anyone drives.
  • A clear quote before any work begins.
  • ID and ownership verification at the door, which protects you.
  • Professional picks, bypass tools, and air wedge systems before anything invasive.
  • A working key or secured lock before we leave.
