Locksmith questions, answered

Jasper is typically 15–25 minutes. Cordova and Sipsey are often 20–30 minutes. Sumiton and Dora are often 25–35 minutes. Empire is often 25–40 minutes. Those ranges assume we are free to roll from our Jasper base. If we are on another job, the window we give you includes it.

Car and house lockouts are the simpler calls. Rekeying is priced per cylinder. A metal key costs less than a transponder key or a push-to-start fob, and an all-keys-lost job costs more than a spare. Call (205) 235-2476 for the total, trip included. Declining the quote costs nothing.

7:00 AM to 7:00 PM Central Time, seven days a week, including most holidays. We close at 7:00 PM. Weekend calls inside those hours use the weekday rate.

Cash, credit card, debit card, or tap-to-pay, including Apple Pay and Google Pay. The amount is the amount quoted on the phone.

Yes. Keypad and Wi-Fi deadbolts, and standard deadbolts, fitted so the bolt lines up and the strike is in the frame. A misaligned door is part of the conversation, because it burns smart-lock motors out.

Yes. House and rental rekeys are priced per cylinder. Commercial rekeys can include a master key so the owner keeps access while the old staff key dies. The owner or manager has to authorize it.

Call and name the road. Some addresses just past Dora, Sumiton, or Empire are still reasonable. Some are not. You will get a direct answer instead of a van that never quite arrives.
