The number you confirm is the number you pay the locksmith on completion. Any on-site change needs your explicit yes before work starts. Never "starting at", never a "$19 service call", never "and up".
| Job | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Home / apartment / business lockout | $95–140 · non-destructive entry first |
| Car lockout | $95–140 · any make, keys-in-trunk included |
| Car key replacement / all keys lost | Exact price shown before dispatch — depends on year & model |
| Rekey / lock change | Per-lock price shown before dispatch |
Industry benchmark (Locksmith Ledger's national price survey, 2024): average service call $94, labor $104/hr, after-hours $151/hr. If a phone quote sounds dramatically cheaper than that, that's the famous bait — the $19 quote that becomes $300 at your door. Our prices are locked in the system before dispatch precisely so that can't happen here.
Every provider in the network holds a California BSIS locksmith license. Where the provider has supplied their number, it's shown with your offer — verify any locksmith license (ours or anyone's) at search.dca.ca.gov.
