Being locked out is a problem that goes from a minor annoyance to completely ruining your day in a matter of minutes. Whether your keys are sitting on the kitchen counter, dropped somewhere during your morning commute, or the lock mechanism itself has completely failed- we get you back inside quickly without wrecking your door, your frame, or your car.
Sometimes a lockout isn’t caused by a missing key, but by a catastrophic hardware failure. Over time, metal fatigue can cause a key to snap cleanly off inside the lock cylinder, or the internal turn-cam can bind, freezing you out even if you have the right key in your hand.

Non-destructive entry first. We exhaust every picking and mechanical manipulation technique before trying anything invasive. If a lock has suffered a structural mechanical failure and absolutely must be drilled, we replace the core right then and there so your property is secure before we drive away.
Strict ownership verification. Before we turn a single pick or unlock a vehicle door, we confirm your physical ID and verify proof that the home, office, or vehicle belongs to you. It is a mandatory security step that keeps our community safe and everyone honest.
Fast routing across the city. We keep our mobile workshops heavily stocked and positioned for rapid dispatch throughout Belltown, Downtown, Capitol Hill, Fremont, Wallingford, First Hill, and the surrounding Seattle neighborhoods.
Forced-Entry Damage Repair: If an intruder warped your strike plate or split the wooden door jamb, we install heavy-duty strike reinforcement plates and longer structural screws to rebuild the door’s integrity.
Emergency Lock Replacement & Upgrades: We instantly replace compromised locks with high-security, pick-resistant Grade 1 deadbolts to ensure an intruder cannot return through the same entry point.
Interim Security Measures: If custom architectural commercial doors or specialized hardware are completely destroyed, we secure the entry points using heavy-duty temporary hardware to keep your inventory safe while permanent replacements are ordered.
Almost never. Professional picking works the internal pins exactly the way a normal key does, leaving the lock completely undamaged and fully usable. Drilling is strictly a last resort used only if the internal gears of the lock have suffered a total physical collapse.
Yes. We do not use old-school “slim jims” that tear up internal door wiring. Our modern automotive opening tools use soft, protective wedges and coated rods designed specifically to bypass car locks without touching your paint, clear coat, or interior trim.
For a house or apartment, a state ID or driver’s license showing the matching address is perfect. If your ID is locked inside, we will open the door, allow you to retrieve it, and verify it then. For businesses, a utility bill or lease agreement matching your business license works. For cars, we look for a matching registration or vehicle title.
Yes. If you are locked out because your keys were stolen or lost in public, simply opening the door leaves your property vulnerable. Once we gain entry, we can rekey the cylinders right from our mobile van so the missing keys will never work again.
Most electronic keypad locks feature external battery contact points or a hidden mechanical override keyway. If your smart lock fails completely due to a mechanical breakdown, we use digital bypass diagnostics or non-destructive picking to grant entry without destroying your expensive smart hardware.
