Can you make keys for older cars?
Yes — even classic and pre-transponder vehicles. Older cars are often easier because there's no chip to program; just a key to cut.
Do you do safe lockouts?
Yes for most residential safes — Sentry, Liberty, First Alert, Honeywell, gun safes, and many others. Some high-security commercial safes require specialty service, which we'll quote separately.
Are your technicians background-checked?
Yes. Every locksmith on our roster passes a background check before going on calls. You can ask any technician for ID and license on arrival.
Are you available 24 hours a day?
Yes. Our line is staffed 24/7, including weekends and holidays. A real human answers and dispatches the closest available technician.
How fast can you get here?
Typical response in our core service area is under 30 minutes. Outer service zones may run longer — we'll give you a realistic ETA on the call.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We are a licensed, insured locksmith company and carry general liability insurance. Ask any tech for proof on arrival.
Do you accept credit cards?
Yes — we accept all major credit cards, debit cards, and most digital wallets. Payment is processed on-site after the work is done.
Will you damage my lock?
Non-destructive entry is our default. Picks, bypass tools, and air wedges open the vast majority of locks with no damage. Drilling is a last resort and only used when the lock has already failed mechanically.
Can you make a car key with no original?
Yes. We can cut and program a replacement key or fob even if you have zero copies left. We'll need the title or registration showing ownership and a photo ID.
How much does a typical lockout cost?
Cost varies by time of day, distance, and lock type. We give a full all-in quote on the phone before dispatching. We don't quote a low service fee and then surprise you with add-ons.
Do you serve Destin?
Yes — Destin is at the center of our service footprint. We cover Destin, Miramar Beach, Crystal Beach, Holiday Isle, Sandestin, Henderson Beach.
