Locked Out in ATX? We Got You!

When you're locked out at 2am on Rainey Street or need a quick rekey after moving into your Mueller townhome, you need a locksmith who actually knows Austin—not a national call center routing your request to whoever's available. We've been serving Austin homeowners, businesses, and drivers since 2008, from historic Hyde Park bungalows to downtown high-rises, with 20-minute emergency response and upfront pricing that doesn't change after midnight.

Our technicians navigate Austin traffic patterns like locals because we are locals. Whether you're locked out near the Domain during lunch rush or need a commercial lock upgrade in Warehouse District before your grand opening, we know which route avoids the I-35 backup and gets us there fastest. We service every Austin neighborhood: Downtown, Clarksville, East Austin, South Congress, Zilker, Westlake, Tarrytown, Triangle, and surrounding areas like Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Pflugerville. If you live or work in the Austin metro area, we'll be there in 20 minutes or less for emergencies.

Emergency lockouts start at $89—period. No "service call fees" that magically appear on the bill. No surge pricing at 3am when you're stranded outside your 6th Street apartment. We quote the full price before we start work, and that's what you pay whether it's Tuesday afternoon or Saturday at midnight. Need a deadbolt rekey after buying that East Austin bungalow? $120-150 for standard residential locks, with multiple locks getting you a better per-lock rate. Commercial master key system for your office near the Capitol? We'll give you an honest estimate based on your door count and security needs—typically $120-180 per lock depending on hardware complexity.

We handle everything from basic house lockouts to complex commercial access control systems. Lost your only car key to that 2019 Honda in the Mueller H-E-B parking lot? We'll cut and program a new transponder key on-site. Building out a new office space in the Domain and need a master key system that lets managers access all doors but keeps individual offices private? We design and install commercial systems daily. Moving into a foreclosure in Clarksville and want every lock changed before you move furniture in? We'll rekey your whole house in one visit. High-security restricted keys for that Westlake executive office where you can't risk unauthorized copies? We're authorized dealers for Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA, and Schlage Primus systems that hardware stores can't duplicate.

Austin isn't our "service area"—it's our home. We've installed smart locks in Tarrytown mansions and rekeyed locks in Triangle condos. We've extracted broken keys from ignitions in the Austin-Bergstrom airport parking garage and installed panic bars on South Lamar retail storefronts. We've helped UT students locked out of their West Campus apartments at 1am and set up master key systems for property managers with 50+ units in East Austin. Every job gets the same careful attention whether you're spending $89 or $8,900, because our reputation in this city matters more than any single transaction.

When you call Austin Locksmiths, you're calling a local business that answers its own phones, employs local technicians, and lives in the same neighborhoods we service. We're not a lead generation company farming out your job to the lowest bidder. We're not a national franchise with rotating staff who barely know where Zilker Park is. We're Austin locksmiths who've been serving this city since before "Mueller" meant a neighborhood instead of an airport. Call us at (512) 354-0025—a real human will answer, not a robot or a call center in another state.
