24/7 Emergency Lockout Service
24/7 Emergency Lockout Service in Austin, TX
Nobody plans to stand on their own porch at two in the morning. When it happens, you want somebody who picks up the phone, gives you a straight price and actually turns up.
-
Non-destructive entry first
We pick, bypass or decode the lock before anything gets drilled. Nine calls out of ten the lock you are standing in front of is the lock you keep.
-
Straight pricing on the phone
You get the service call fee and the labour range before we roll. No 19-dollar bait and a four-figure invoice at the door.
-
Round the clock, all year
Nights, weekends, Thanksgiving, the Fourth of July. The dispatch line is answered by a person, not a queue.

Common questions
How fast can somebody get to me?
Most calls inside Austin city limits are covered in 20 to 40 minutes. Out toward Dripping Springs, Elgin or Liberty Hill it runs closer to an hour, and dispatch will tell you the honest number when you call.
Will you break my lock to get in?
Only as a last resort, and never without telling you first. Standard residential and commercial locks are picked or bypassed. High-security cylinders occasionally have to be drilled, and we say so before we start.
What do you need from me?
Proof you belong there. A driver's licence with the address, a lease, a utility bill, or vehicle registration and photo ID for a car. We ask every single time.

Locked myself out at eleven at night with a toddler asleep upstairs. Quoted me on the phone, arrived in half an hour, had the door open in under five minutes without a scratch on it. Charged exactly what was quoted.

We turn over about forty units a year and they handle every rekey. Invoiced to the office, keying schedule emailed the same day, never had to chase them.

Property manager, North Austin

Dealer wanted a tow plus two days for a lost Kia key. These guys did it in my driveway in about an hour for a lot less. Two keys, both tested before he left.

Panic bar failed on a Friday during service. They came out after close, fixed it properly and talked me through what the inspector would be looking for.
