Seattle, WA
There is no shop counter to drive to. SOS Mobile Locksmith works out of equipped vans, so car keys are cut and programmed at the vehicle, locks are rekeyed at the door, and business hardware is repaired on site. Rated 5 stars across more than 220 Google reviews, licensed and insured, with the line answered 24 hours a day across Seattle and the surrounding King County area. Tell us what happened and where you are, and you get a real price before anyone is dispatched.
Key cutting machines, transponder programmers, cylinders and door hardware all travel in the van. That is what makes one visit enough for most jobs, whether the work is a car key made at the roadside, a house put onto a single new key, or a storefront lever that has stopped latching.
You hear the full cost on the phone, based on your hardware or your vehicle, not after the van pulls up.
Doors and vehicles are opened without damage wherever the lock allows it. Drilling is a last resort, never the opening move.
The phone is answered around the clock, nights, weekends and holidays included.
Residential, commercial and automotive work, plus the lockout, rekeying and smart lock jobs that sit across all three. Every one of them is finished at your address.
Home lockouts, deadbolt and handle set installation, lock repair and high security upgrades for houses, condos and apartments around Seattle. House keys are cut on site, so spare keys and key duplication happen at your door instead of at a hardware counter. Schlage, Kwikset, Yale and Baldwin hardware are standard stock in the van.
Master key systems, high security cylinders, panic bars and exit devices, access control and office lockouts. Most commercial calls come after staff turnover, or when a storefront door stops latching once the weather turns, and both are handled without shutting the business for the day. Panic hardware is fitted with local code considerations in mind.
Car key replacement, spare keys, transponder and chip key programming, key fob and remote replacement, broken key extraction and ignition work. Keys are cut and programmed at the vehicle, which takes the tow to a dealership out of the picture. Subaru, Mazda, Toyota, Honda, Ford, Hyundai, Kia, Jeep, Nissan and Audi are among the makes covered.
04 . Lockout Service
House, apartment, office and car lockouts, opened without damage wherever the lock allows it. Have photo ID and something showing the property or vehicle is yours ready before the technician arrives, and the opening itself usually takes minutes.
Rekeying changes which key turns your existing cylinder, so old keys stop working while the hardware stays on the door. It is the usual answer after a move, a lost key or a roommate change, and it costs less than new locks. Every exterior lock in a home can normally end up on one key.
Keypad, Wi-Fi and biometric locks fitted and set up properly, including on older Seattle doors that were never drilled for them. We also say when a standard deadbolt is the better buy, because a smart lock on a misaligned door is still a door that will not latch.
Routing built on how Seattle actually moves, from the Downtown core and Belltown out through Capitol Hill, Ballard and West Seattle.
Each van is a working shop: key machines, programmers, cylinders and door hardware, which is why most jobs finish on the first visit.
The quote comes before the work. If the job turns out to be different from what was described on the phone, we say so and requote instead of adding it at the end.
Trained locksmiths who arrive in a marked vehicle and carry identification, working on homes, vehicles and commercial doors.
SOS Mobile Locksmith is a service area business, so there is no storefront to visit. Coverage runs across the urban core and out into the surrounding cities. If you have searched for a locksmith near you and are not sure your address falls inside the area, call and ask before you book anyone.
Mobile locksmith service reaches the following Seattle ZIP codes:

Usually yes. Most smart locks are built for standard deadbolt prep, and plenty of older Seattle doors already have it. Where the bore, backset or stile does not match, the door can be drilled and mortised to take the new lock properly. If the door itself has dropped out of alignment we deal with that first, because a smart lock on a door that will not close is still a door that will not close.
Yes. Offices, retail units and multi-tenant buildings can be put on a master key plan, so a manager opens every door with one key while each tenant or department keeps access only to their own space. Existing cylinders can often be reused, and the system can be rekeyed later when staff change without replacing the hardware.
The year, make and model of the vehicle, the address where it is parked, and whether you still have a working key. That is normally enough for an exact price on the phone. Have photo ID and proof the vehicle is yours ready as well, since no locksmith should be cutting a car key without it.
Both. House, office, mailbox and padlock keys are duplicated on site, and a working key can be cut by decoding the lock when no original exists. Car keys need programming to the vehicle as well as cutting, and that is done at the roadside too.
Rekeying keeps the lock you already own and changes which key turns it, which is the cheaper and faster answer after a move, a lost key or a change of roommate. Replacement earns its cost when the hardware is worn, damaged or too weak for the door, or when you want a high security or smart lock. We tell you which one applies before any work starts.
Yes. SOS Mobile Locksmith is licensed, bonded and insured under WA License #SOSMOML760DF. Washington covers locksmiths through general business licensing rather than a dedicated trade license, so the registration a locksmith publishes is worth checking before you let anyone near your locks.
