A Locksmith That Comes to Your House
Most home lock problems do not wait for business hours. A key snaps off in the deadbolt on a Sunday night, the back door stops latching after a cold snap, or the closing on your new house in Empire Ranch finishes and nobody can say how many copies of the old key are still out there. A residential locksmith who drives to you solves the problem where it is, at the door.
We work out of a fully equipped vehicle, so the tools, key blanks and common replacement hardware are already with us when we arrive. That means most jobs are finished in a single visit: we can rekey the locks on a whole house, fit a new deadbolt, or get you back inside after a lockout without leaving to fetch parts.
Homeowners, renters, landlords and property managers all call us for different reasons. Owners usually want better security or keys that match. Landlords want old tenants’ keys to stop working before the next move-in. Renters mostly call when they are locked out. Whichever group you are in, the first step is the same: call, describe the door and the lock, and we will tell you honestly what it needs.

Rekey, Replace or Upgrade?
A lot of callers ask for new locks when what they really want is new keys. If your hardware works well and you like how it looks, rekeying changes the inside of the lock so old keys stop working, usually for less than replacing it.
Replacing makes more sense when the lock is worn, damaged, cheaply made or simply not the style you want. It is also the route to take when you want a different type of lock, such as a keypad deadbolt for a rental or a smart lock for the front door. Our lock change and installation page covers those options in more detail.
Not sure which you need? Describe the lock and what you want it to do, and we will tell you which option fits.
Rekey
Same lock, new key. Old keys stop working.
Replace
New hardware for worn or damaged locks.
Upgrade

Winter, Garages and Other Carson City Lock Problems
Carson City winters are hard on door hardware. Cold mornings, snow melt and wind-driven grit get into exterior locks, and a lock that was a little stiff in October can refuse to turn by January. Forcing a frozen key is the quickest way to snap it inside the cylinder. If a lock is stiff, call before it fails completely; cleaning, lubricating or rekeying a worn cylinder is much easier than an emergency lockout at 6 a.m.
The door between the garage and the house is another common call. Many homes in North Carson, Silver Oak and the newer subdivisions use it as the everyday entrance, so its lock wears out faster than the front door. We can rekey it to match the rest of the house or replace it with a sturdier deadbolt.
We also see sliding patio doors that no longer latch, mailbox-style cabinet locks on rentals, and side gates with keys nobody can find. If it locks with a key, ask us about it.

FAQ
Residential Locksmith FAQs
Do you come to my house, or do I bring the lock to you?
We come to you. We are a mobile locksmith, so the tools, key blanks and common hardware travel with us and the work is done at your door.
Can you make all the locks in my house work with one key?
Usually, yes, as long as the locks share a compatible keyway. We can rekey them to the same key, and if one lock does not match we will tell you and suggest a replacement that does.
Do you work for landlords and property managers?
Yes. Rekeying between tenants, spare keys for new renters and replacing damaged locks are some of our most common jobs for rental owners in Carson City.
Are you really available at night and on weekends?
Yes. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays. Call and tell us where you are.
What should I do if my outdoor lock is frozen?
Do not force the key, because it can snap inside the lock. Warm the key in your hand or use a lock de-icer, and if the lock still will not turn, call us before it gets worse.
