Home lockouts we handle
Every lockout starts with a few quick questions: the address, which door, and which locks are set. Then a locksmith heads your way the same day, day or night.
Deadbolt locked
A deadbolt slides deep into the frame and often needs a different approach than a knob lock. Tell us it is set when you call.
Deadbolt lockoutsStorm or security door
A storm door or security door in front can add a second lock to open. We ask about it before the drive.
Second-door lockoutsKeys lost across town
When the keys are gone for good, we get you inside and can rekey the lock so the lost keys no longer work.

How a home lockout call works
Call us
Call 678-338-8566 any hour. Share your address, which door, and whether the knob, the deadbolt, or both are locked.
A locksmith heads out
We set your call for a same-day response. Keep your ringer on and wait somewhere shaded or at a neighbor's place.
Your door opens
The locksmith checks the lock and how the door sits, then works it open, aiming for non-destructive entry where the lock allows.
Test before they leave
Grab your keys and test each lock from inside and outside while the locksmith is still there, then talk through next steps.

Emergency lockout FAQ
Can I call in the middle of the night?
Yes. We answer 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call 678-338-8566 any hour.
How soon will someone come?
Every lockout call gets a same-day response from our Dunwoody base.
Will you damage my door or lock?
Non-destructive entry is the aim, meaning opening the lock without breaking the door or the lock. Whether that is possible depends on the lock and the door.
What should I tell you when I call?
Your address, which door, whether the knob, the deadbolt, or both are locked, whether the door is wood or metal, and whether there is a storm door in front.
My keys are lost, not locked inside. Can you help?
Yes. We get you back in, and rekeying is an option so the lost keys stop working while your door hardware stays in place.
Is it a good idea to have ID ready?
It helps to have proof of residence handy once you are inside, such as an ID or a utility bill showing you live there.
