A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE HELPS
Make the right
next move.
Practical guidance before you book a locksmith or buy a new key or lock.
FOR DRIVERS
Make a spare while you still have a key.
Ask about a backup key before the only working one disappears. Bring any existing keys and tell us whether you need a remote, a starting key, or both. Some keys need programming in addition to cutting.
FOR HOMEOWNERS
New home? Think about old keys.
You may not know how many copies a previous occupant shared. Ask about rekeying compatible locks, and mention whether you want several doors to use one key. Matching keyways and hardware condition affect the options.
FOR BUSINESS OWNERS
Start with how the door behaves.
Tell us whether the key is hard to turn, the latch misses the strike, or the door does not close. The problem may involve the door or alignment as well as the lock. Photos of the hardware can help prepare for the appointment.

BEFORE YOU CALL
Good questions.
Clear next steps.
Can you help if I lost all my car keys?
Call with the vehicle’s year, make, and model, and say that you have no working key. Replacement and programming options vary by vehicle. Confirm the required identification and proof of ownership when booking.
Can I get a spare key instead of a full remote?
The answer depends on your vehicle and the functions you need. Some options unlock the door without starting the engine. Explain whether you want door access, engine starting, remote buttons, or all three.
Can you program a key fob I bought online?
Check with us first. Part number, frequency, compatibility, and whether a fob was previously used can affect programming. A similar-looking remote does not guarantee a match.
Why does my new key unlock the door but not start the car?
The blade may match the lock while the vehicle still requires a correctly programmed transponder. Other faults can also prevent starting. Tell us what the key does and which warning messages appear.
Do you work on every vehicle?
Call to confirm your exact vehicle. Key systems differ by make, model, year, and equipment. We’ll discuss whether your service is available before you arrange a visit.
What should I do if my key breaks in a lock?
Avoid forcing another key or pushing the broken piece farther in. Describe the lock and where the key snapped. Ask about extraction and whether the hardware needs further inspection.
What if my ignition key will not turn?
Do not force the key. Tell us whether the issue is new or has become worse over time, and whether a spare behaves differently. The key, ignition, or steering lock can each affect the symptoms.
Can you help with a house lockout?
Call with the address, door type, and a description of the lock. Ask what identification or evidence of authorized access you will need.
What is the difference between rekeying and replacing a lock?
Rekeying changes which key operates a compatible existing lock. Replacement changes the hardware itself. Condition, compatibility, and your security goals help determine the better choice.
Should I rekey after moving into a home?
Consider who may still have copies of the existing keys. Ask about changing access and whether the current hardware is suitable for rekeying.
Can several doors use the same key?
Sometimes, when the locks use compatible keyways and the hardware supports the change. Let us know which doors you want included and what brands or models are installed.
Can you install a keypad or smart lock?
Call about your door and the hardware you want. Door dimensions, existing preparation, power, and compatibility should be checked before installation.
Is a sticking lock always a broken lock?
No. Door alignment, worn keys, or other hardware can contribute. Explain whether the lock behaves differently with the door open or closed so the appointment can address the symptoms.
Do you service business locks?
Call about commercial lock repair or installation. Share the door type, hardware photos if available, and whether the issue involves access, locking, or closing.
Can you come to my location?
Call to discuss mobile availability for your address and the service you need. Ask about arrival estimates and any travel or service-call charges.
How much will my locksmith service cost?
The work, parts, vehicle or lock type, location, and timing can affect the price. Ask for an estimate, what it includes, and how any changes will be approved before work begins.
How long does a job take?
Timing depends on the service and what the technician finds. Ask about both the arrival estimate and expected work time. Parts availability or additional diagnosis may affect the appointment.
What identification should I bring?
Ask which ID and proof of ownership or authorized access your specific service requires. For a vehicle, have its details and any working keys ready.
Where is the shop?
Our address is 221 St James Ave, Suite 3A, Goose Creek, SC 29445. Use the directions link on this page and call before visiting to confirm current hours and service availability.
What if a child or pet is trapped in a vehicle?
If anyone is in immediate danger, call 911 first. Do not wait for a routine locksmith appointment in a life-threatening situation.
