WHAT WE HANDLE

  • Keys Locked Inside

    Keys left on the counter or table while the door locked behind you. The most common residential lockout. We open it without damage.

  • Deadbolt and Knob Locks

    Standard Kwikset and Schlage deadbolts, knob locks, handlesets. Non-destructive entry on all common residential hardware.

  • Broken Key or Stuck Lock

    Key snapped off in the cylinder, or the deadbolt will not turn. We extract broken keys and cut replacements on site.

  • Rekeying After Entry

    Lost or stolen keys? We rekey on the same visit. One trip, one invoice. New keys cut before we leave the driveway.

HOW HOME LOCKOUT SERVICE WORKS

  1. Call or Request Online

    We pick up within 30 seconds, day or night. Give us your address and lock type so we bring the right tools.

  2. Technician Dispatched

    Your nearest licensed technician is routed immediately. Median Central Austin arrival: 14 minutes.

  3. Ownership Verified

    We confirm you are the homeowner or authorized resident. Driver's license or lease document. Quick and straightforward.

  4. Non-Destructive Entry

    We assess the lock and use the least invasive technique. Most deadbolts and knob locks open in under 20 minutes without damage.

  5. Lock Tested and Options Reviewed

    We verify the lock functions correctly after entry. Rekeying or spare key cutting available on the spot if you need it.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE ARRIVE

Non-Destructive Entry on Austin Homes Since 2010

The first tool out of the bag is not a drill. Our technicians carry picks, bypass tools, and tension wrenches calibrated for Kwikset, Schlage, Baldwin, and Medeco cylinders. Hill Country humidity accelerates pin corrosion in older Austin homes, particularly in Hyde Park and Clarksville bungalows with original hardware from the 1960s. We factor that into the approach before we put tension on anything.

After the door is open, we test the lock from both sides and confirm the deadbolt throws cleanly. If the mechanism is worn or the key is marginal, we tell you on the spot rather than letting you find out at 11 p.m. next month. Rekeying takes another 10 to 15 minutes per cylinder and is quoted before we start.

  • Non-destructive entry on standard and high-security deadbolts
  • Broken key extraction and on-site key cutting
  • Rekeying available on the same visit

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long does it take to unlock a house door?

Most residential lockouts are resolved in 15 to 30 minutes from our technician's arrival. A standard knob lock takes 5 to 10 minutes; a deadbolt 10 to 20 minutes. High-security cylinders or antique hardware in older Hyde Park or Clarksville homes may take up to 30 minutes. We assess the lock type when we arrive and give you an honest time estimate before we start.

Will you damage my lock or door?

Non-destructive entry is our first approach on every job. We use picks, bypass tools, and shimming techniques calibrated for each lock brand. Drilling is a last resort, reserved for locks that cannot be picked without creating a risk of further damage. In the overwhelming majority of residential lockouts, the lock and door frame are untouched when we leave.

Do I need to prove I live here?

Yes. A driver's license matching the property address is the fastest option. If your ID shows a different address, a lease agreement, utility bill, or mortgage statement also works. This step protects you: it prevents someone from calling a locksmith to enter a home that is not theirs.

Can you rekey or cut a spare key while you are already on site?

Yes. Our service vehicles carry key cutting equipment and common residential cylinder blanks. If you want to rekey after a lockout, that adds roughly 10 to 15 minutes per lock. We quote the rekeying cost before we start so there are no surprises on the invoice.

What does home lockout service cost in Austin?

Most residential lockouts in the Austin area run $75 to $150 depending on the lock type and complexity. We quote the price before we begin work. The rate is the same at midnight on a Sunday as it is at noon on a Tuesday. If you need rekeying or a spare key cut, we quote that separately.

Can you reach my neighborhood in Round Rock, Pflugerville, or Cedar Park?

Yes. From our Central Austin dispatch, Round Rock and Cedar Park average 20 to 25 minutes via MoPac or I-35. Pflugerville and Georgetown average 22 to 28 minutes. Call us and we confirm your exact address and give you an honest drive time before we dispatch.

Is your technician licensed to work in Texas?

Yes. Texas DPS Locksmith License #B19847. Every technician dispatched is employed by and insured through Pros On Call. We carry that credential on every job and will show it on request.
