What we do for Surrey homes.

Rekeying after a move, replacing worn-out hardware, or tightening up a front door that's no longer as solid as it should be — residential locksmith work is the backbone of what we do in Surrey.

Surrey's housing mix is wide: older bungalows in Newton and Guildford, townhouse complexes in Fleetwood and Clayton Heights, newer detached homes in South Surrey, and high-density strata buildings going up fast around King George station. Each property type has its own lock-and-hardware profile, and the right call for a 1970s Fleetwood rancher is different from the right call for a brand-new Clayton strata unit. Our licensed technicians know the difference, carry the hardware to match, and quote you before any work starts.

What's included in a residential call

  • Residential lockout — entry without damage to door or frame
  • Rekey existing deadbolts and knob sets to a new key (keeps the same hardware)
  • Lock change — full removal and replacement with Grade 1 or Grade 2 hardware
  • Deadbolt installation on doors that currently only have a knob lock
  • Door strike plate upgrade (replaces the builder-grade 2-screw plate with a deep-anchor security plate)
  • Patio and sliding-door lock service
  • Window lock installation
  • Smart lock supply and installation (keypad, app-controlled, or both)
  • Key duplication for family members or tenants
  • Security consultation — a quick walk-around to flag weak points before they become problems

Typical price ranges

We quote on the phone before dispatching. The numbers below are typical ranges for Surrey residential jobs — final price depends on the lock grade you choose, the number of cylinders, and whether any door adjustment is needed. All prices include labour and standard hardware unless noted.

ServiceTypical range
Home lockout (entry)$85–$140
Rekey — 1 lock$35–$60
Rekey — whole house (3–5 locks)$90–$160
Lock change — single deadbolt (hardware included)$120–$220
Deadbolt add (new installation)$150–$250
Smart lock supply & install$250–$480
Security strike plate upgrade$60–$100

These are ranges, not quotes. Emergency or after-hours surcharges apply for 2 AM lockouts or same-day weekend installs. We'll always tell you the number before we start work.

How it works

01

Call or book online

Phone gets you the fastest response — we take your address, confirm the service, and give you a price range on the spot. Book online for scheduled work like a whole-house rekey after a move.

02

Technician on the way

A licensed locksmith departs from the nearest Surrey dispatch point. We send you an ETA. Average arrival across Surrey is around 22 minutes; South Surrey and White Rock runs can be a few minutes longer depending on traffic on Highway 99.

03

Work quoted, then done

On arrival the technician does a quick assessment, confirms the final price, and gets your go-ahead. Most residential jobs — a single lockout, a rekey, a deadbolt swap — are done in 30 to 60 minutes. We leave the door fully functional, lock cylinders adjusted and tested.

After a move in Surrey: why rekeying matters

Surrey's rental and ownership turnover rate is high — particularly in the Newton townhouse corridors, the strata complexes near Guildford Town Centre, and the new builds coming online along 152nd Street in South Surrey. Every time a tenancy changes, the previous keys are still out there. A realtor key, a landlord's spare, a contractor who held a copy — you don't always know who has what.

Rekeying is the straightforward fix: a licensed locksmith changes the internal pin configuration of your existing cylinder so every old key stops working and you get a fresh set. It costs far less than replacing the hardware entirely, and it takes about 15 minutes per cylinder. If you're moving into a Surrey home and you're working with a budget, rekeying the front door and the back door the same day you get the keys is the single most cost-effective security step you can take.

Strata and townhouse properties in Surrey

Surrey has a large and growing strata housing stock — from older bare-land stratas in Cloverdale to the high-rise towers going up in Whalley and around King George Boulevard. If you own a strata unit, confirm with your strata corporation what the rules are on exterior lock changes before booking. In most BC stratas, owners can change the lock on their unit entry door as long as the new hardware matches the building's suite-entry specification and a copy of the new key is provided to the corporation. We're familiar with the standard strata hardware specs and can advise on compliant lock grades when you call.

Frequently asked questions

Can you rekey my house to all work on the same key?
Yes. We can rekey all the cylinders in your home — front door, back door, garage entry, suite locks — to work off a single key. This is called a same-key setup and it's one of the most common residential requests we get. We carry the pinning equipment on the truck.
How long does a whole-house rekey take?
A typical Surrey home with three to five lock cylinders takes about 45 to 60 minutes start to finish. If there are more cylinders, or if any of the hardware is old and needs extra attention, it may run a bit longer. We'll estimate the time when you describe the property on the phone.
What lock brands do you carry for replacements?
We stock Schlage, Kwikset, and Weiser — the three brands most commonly found in Surrey residential properties. For high-security upgrades we also carry ASSA Abloy and Medeco cylinders. If you have a preference, mention it when you call and we'll confirm availability before dispatching.
My strata says I need to keep a key on file. Will that be an issue?
Not at all. We can cut a spare key from the new cylinder for your strata corporation at the same visit. Just let us know when you book. The strata's key requirement doesn't change the cost or the process — it's just one extra key cut at the end of the job.
Is there an after-hours charge for a 2 AM lockout?
Yes — we're transparent about it. Late-night and early-morning calls carry a surcharge that reflects the real cost of having a licensed technician on the road around the clock. We quote the full price, including any surcharge, before dispatch. No surprises on the invoice.
Do you work in White Rock and South Surrey?
Yes. We cover all of Surrey, White Rock, and the surrounding territory. South Surrey and White Rock are served from the same dispatch as the rest of the city. Travel time to the far south end can be slightly longer, particularly during peak traffic on Highway 99, and we'll give you an honest ETA when you call.
