Emergency Lockout Service Cost: The Basics

Think of it as a true home service for your doors and locks: you call, we come to you, and the job gets done at your door. Home & Business Lockout Service means getting you back into a locked house, apartment or office quickly, without damage to the door, the frame or the lock, and we quote it upfront on the phone.

Our route also takes in Old Westbury, Roslyn and Albertson — call from any of them.

What We Take Care Of

Typical work on these calls includes:

• Office and storefront lockouts for owners and authorized managers
• Damage-free entry with professional picking and bypass tools — no drilling unless there is no other way
• Locks rekeyed on the spot if your keys were lost or stolen rather than locked inside
• House, apartment and condo lockouts at the front, back, side and patio doors
• Broken keys removed from the lock and a working key cut while we are there
• Residential and commercial hardware, from standard to high-security

What to Expect

Most calls follow the same simple pattern:

1. Call (516) 750-0433 and tell us the address and which door you are locked out of.
2. We give you a price and an arrival time before anyone is dispatched.
3. The technician confirms you live at or manage the property, then opens the door without damage.
4. If the keys are gone for good, we can rekey or change the lock before we leave.
5. We leave you our number in case anything else comes up.

Before You Call

• Have ID with your address ready; we confirm authorization before every job.
• If a key breaks in the lock, leave the piece in and call us rather than digging at it.
• Smart lock batteries usually warn you weeks ahead — replace them early.

How Quotes Work

For emergency lockout service cost, the quote comes down to:

• How far the property is from our nearest technician
• The type of lock and how secure it is (standard knob, deadbolt, high-security cylinder)
• The time of day — late-night, weekend and holiday calls can cost more
• Whether you also want the lock rekeyed or changed

A quick description of the lock or a photo of it helps us quote even faster.
