Home/Lock change
New locks installedWorn-out builder-grade locks, broken cylinders, doors that won't latch right? We replace residential and small commercial locks with new hardware at your place — standard, high-security, smart locks, deadbolts and door knobs. Brought back from the truck, installed and tested while you watch.
A lock change is the right move when the existing hardware is worn, broken, or just not good enough. We bring quality replacement locks to your door, install them, test them, and clean up. You can choose what level of hardware — basic builder-grade replacement, mid-tier (Schlage B60), or high-security (Mul-T-Lock, Medeco) for doors you want to harden.
Smart locks are a great upgrade if you'll actually use the features. Code entry for the cleaner, auto-lock at bedtime, and a phone unlock when your hands are full. We install Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, Yale Assure, August Wi-Fi, and the Nest x Yale. Setup includes the physical install, the network pairing, and a quick walkthrough so you know how to add codes later.

We focus on one specific slice of Chatham and Effingham county — the Highway 21 corridor, the five cities around the Port of Savannah, and the communities sitting next to them. That focus matters. We know which subdivisions have Cluster Box Units (CBUs) versus individual mailboxes. We know that the doors at Sanctuary Cove tend to have Schlage in a specific finish. We know which businesses on Pooler Parkway open early and which ones don't unlock until after 10 AM. When you call, you get a locksmith who already knows your area — not a dispatch center routing you to whoever picks up.
We carry parts and have the tools to service the most common residential, condo and commercial brands installed across the Georgia coast. If you have a brand not listed, just call — there is a good chance we still service it.
Tell us what happened, where you are, and what hardware is involved. We explain the work and give you a time window.
For lockouts we confirm photo ID and proof of ownership or location. For installs we confirm the door type and what you want.
A technician arrives in our service vehicle with the parts, blanks and programming gear most jobs need.
You see the work tested in front of you. You pay only for what was agreed before we started.
Before we arrive, take a clear photo of your driver's license and have a second photo of your registration, lease, deed, or rental agreement ready. Having both ready cuts the visit time roughly in half and protects you from someone calling a locksmith on a property that isn't theirs.
Locksmith work depends on a few honest factors: the type of lock or vehicle, distance to the job, and any parts that need to be supplied. We handle evening calls the same as daytime calls during our regular hours — 9 PM is treated the same as 9 AM. We explain what's involved when you call so you know what to expect, and we never start work without your go-ahead.
We work daily across these neighborhoods and ZIP codes, plus everything in between:
