About this service

Home lockouts happen to careful people all the time. A door swings shut on a windy day. Keys stay on the kitchen counter during a quick trip to the mailbox. A smart lock battery dies at the worst moment. Whatever the cause, we come to you, confirm you belong there, and open the door the gentle way first.

When to call

  • Your keys are inside and every door is locked.
  • A key snapped off in the deadbolt.
  • The lock turns but the door will not open.
  • A smart lock is dead or unresponsive.
  • A roommate or tenant change means your key no longer works.

How it works

Call or text your address area

Tell us your town and the type of door. Houses, apartments, condos, and rentals are all fine. Proof of residence may be required for rentals.

Closest locksmith arrives

Your request goes to the nearest verified base. In many Eastern Connecticut neighborhoods that keeps the wait short.

Gentle entry, then a quick check

After ID and residence verification and a clear quote, we pick or bypass the lock without damage in most cases. We then test the lock and flag any wear that caused the problem.

What to expect

  • Non destructive entry as the default, not the exception.
  • Drilling only as a last resort and only with your approval.
  • A working lock when we leave, not a broken one.
  • On the spot rekeying available if you want old keys to stop working.
  • Respectful service at your front door, day or night.

House Lockout questions

Can you open apartments and rentals?

Yes. We serve apartments, condos, and rental homes. Bring photo ID and be ready to show proof of residence, such as a lease or a utility bill.

Will my lock survive the entry?

In most cases yes. We pick or bypass first. If a lock is already broken, we explain your repair or replacement options before touching anything.

Can you rekey while you are here?

Yes. If you are worried about lost keys, we can rekey the lock in the same visit so old keys stop working immediately.
