Searching "locksmith near me" usually happens in the middle of a problem: a locked car, a lost key, a door that will not open. Before you call, here is how Locksmith on Wheels works, in answers to eight common questions.
8 questions, answered
1. How fast can you get to me?
Our average arrival across metro Atlanta is 15 to 30 minutes, depending on where you are and the traffic. When you call, we give you an honest arrival time.
2. Will I know the price before you start?
Yes. Our starting prices are published on our pricing page: car and house lockouts start at $89, new car keys at $129, and rekeying at $49 per lock. The final price depends on the job, the make and year of the car, or the lock, and we confirm it on-site before any work begins.
3. Can you make a new key if I lost my only one?
Yes. We can make and program a new key from scratch for your vehicle, even if you have lost your only key. The technician comes to where the car is parked, does the programming on-site, and tests the new key before the job is finished. Our guide to lost car keys with no spare walks through it.
4. Does my car have to be towed to a dealership?
No. We cut and program the key where the car is parked, so it never has to leave the spot.
5. What do I need to show you?
A valid photo ID and proof of ownership. For a car, that is the registration, insurance card, title, or bill of sale. We check it before any lock or key work begins, which means we would not open your door for anyone else either.
6. Do you work on my car?
We make and program keys for most makes on the road, from Ford, Toyota, and Honda to BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Tesla. Find yours on our brands page, with the starting prices for that make.
7. Do you work on homes and businesses too?
Yes. House and office lockouts start at $89, rekeying at $49 per lock, and lock replacement at $99. For businesses we also handle master key systems and high-security locks. More is on our home and business locksmith pages.
8. When are you open, and where do you work?
We work Tuesday through Sunday from 7 AM to 7 PM, Wednesday until 5 PM, and we are closed on Mondays. We cover Atlanta and more than 20 surrounding cities, listed on our service area page, and if your area is not on the list, call and we will confirm. We take calls in Spanish too.
