Home lockouts, lock changes, rekeys and smart lock installs for houses, rowhomes and apartments across Philadelphia, by a mobile locksmith who comes to you.

What Are Residential Locksmith Services?

Residential locksmith services cover everything that keeps you in control of who gets into your home. That means getting you back inside after a lockout, fixing or replacing locks that stick, rekeying after a move, cutting spare keys and installing deadbolts or smart locks. At Affordable Lock & Key we work on houses, rowhomes, condos and apartments all over Philadelphia, and we bring the tools and hardware to your door so most jobs get done in one visit. Front door, back door off the alley, basement entry or storm door, we can take care of it.

Why Are Residential Locksmith Services Necessary?

Your locks are the first thing standing between your family and anyone who shouldn't be inside. Keys get lost, copies get handed out to contractors and roommates, and locks wear out after years of daily use, especially on older doors that swell and shift with the seasons. A lock that sticks or a key that only works half the time usually fails at the worst moment, like late at night or on your way to work. Calling a residential locksmith early keeps a small problem from turning into a lockout, and it gives you peace of mind that only the right people have a key.

What Is Required For Residential Locksmith Services?

Most home jobs only need a few things from you. Tell us the address, what's going on with the lock and which door it's on, and whether you'd like to keep your current hardware or upgrade it. If you're locked out, it helps to have an ID or a piece of mail handy so we can confirm the home is yours once you're back inside. For lock changes, think about how many doors you'd like on the same key. We'll explain your options and give you the price before we start.
