Our locksmith services in Buckhead, GA
We deliver four core service categories adapted to the mix of residential, commercial, and automotive needs in Buckhead. All work includes a 1-year warranty on labor and parts.
Residential locksmith in Buckhead
Our residential locksmith services help protect Buckhead homes, condos, and apartments with comprehensive security solutions:
Lock installation & repair. Whether you’re upgrading to high-security deadbolts or replacing worn-out hardware, we install and repair all types of residential locks. We work with trusted brands like Schlage, Kwikset, Yale, and Medeco. If your locks are sticking, keys are hard to turn, or you’re dealing with a broken mechanism, we’ll diagnose the issue and recommend repair or replacement based on what makes the most sense for your situation and budget.
Rekeying and key duplication. Rekeying is one of the smartest and most affordable ways to secure your home after moving in, losing keys, or ending a relationship. We change the internal pins of your existing locks so old keys no longer work, saving you the cost of replacing all the hardware. We can also rekey multiple locks to work with a single key for convenience. Need extra copies? We cut duplicate keys on-site for standard and high-security locks.
Smart lock setup & access control. Modern Buckhead homes often feature smart locks that let you control access from your phone, create temporary codes for guests or cleaners, and receive alerts when someone enters. We install and configure popular systems like Schlage Encode, Yale Assure, August Smart Locks, and Kwikset Halo. We’ll connect them to your Wi-Fi, integrate them with your smart home system (Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit), and show you how to use all the features confidently.
Master key systems. If you manage a multi-unit property or have several entry points you want to control differently, a master key system gives you flexibility. You can have individual keys for specific doors while keeping one master key that opens everything. This is especially useful for landlords with multiple units in Buckhead apartment buildings or homeowners with separate entrances for guest suites or home offices.
Safe, gate, and mailbox locks. We don’t just handle front doors. Need a new safe installed or can’t remember your combination? We open, repair, and install residential safes. We also service gate locks for backyard security, mailbox locks for apartment complexes, and cabinet locks for valuables. If it locks, we can help.
Local example: We recently rekeyed multiple high-end locks for a townhouse near Peachtree Battle Avenue after a new homeowner moved in.
Commercial locksmith in Buckhead
Our commercial locksmiths secure offices, retail stores, and restaurants in Buckhead Village and the Lenox Square area with business-focused solutions:
High-security locks & master key systems. Commercial properties need locks that can withstand heavy daily use and resist picking or forced entry. We install high-security cylinders with restricted keyways, which means keys can’t be duplicated without authorization. This is critical for businesses handling sensitive information or valuable inventory.
Access control & restricted keyways. Electronic access control systems let you manage who enters your building and when, all from a central system. Employees use key cards, fobs, or PIN codes instead of traditional keys. You can grant or revoke access instantly, track entry logs, and set time-based restrictions (like preventing after-hours access for certain staff). This is ideal for office buildings, medical practices, and any business where security and accountability matter.
Panic bars & exit devices. Fire codes require commercial buildings to have panic bars (also called crash bars) on emergency exits. These devices let people exit quickly during an emergency by simply pushing the bar, but they prevent entry from the outside. We install, repair, and replace panic hardware to keep your business compliant with safety regulations while maintaining security.
Keyless entry and employee rekeying. Employee turnover means keys change hands frequently. Instead of wondering who still has a copy, rekey your locks whenever someone leaves. It’s faster and cheaper than replacing all your hardware. For businesses that want to eliminate keys entirely, we install keyless entry systems with PIN codes or card readers. No more worrying about lost keys or unauthorized copies.
File cabinet & internal office locks. Protect confidential documents, petty cash, and employee records with secure file cabinet locks. We rekey, replace, and repair locks on filing cabinets, desk drawers, and storage units.
Local example: A retail store in Phipps Plaza requested a same-day lock replacement after a keyholder turnover. We handled it quickly and discreetly.
Automotive locksmith in Buckhead
Our automotive locksmith services cover all vehicle types across Buckhead and nearby Midtown Atlanta, from luxury cars to everyday vehicles:
Car lockouts. Locked your keys in the car? It happens more often than you’d think, especially in parking decks at Lenox Square or Phipps Plaza. We’ll get you back in your vehicle quickly without damaging the paint, windows, or door seals. Our technicians use professional tools designed specifically for automotive lockouts, so you don’t have to worry about scratches or broken parts. We handle cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans from all manufacturers.
Key fob replacement & programming. Modern vehicles use electronic key fobs instead of traditional keys. If you’ve lost your fob, need a spare, or your fob stopped working, we can help. We cut and program replacement fobs for most makes and models, including luxury brands like BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, and Audi. Programming requires specialized equipment to sync the new fob with your car’s computer system, and we handle the entire process on-site. This saves you a trip to the dealership and usually costs significantly less.
Transponder key cutting. Most cars made after 1995 use transponder keys with a chip inside that communicates with your car’s immobilizer system. If the chip isn’t programmed correctly, your car won’t start even if the key fits. We cut new transponder keys and program the chip so your car recognizes it.
Ignition repair. If your key won’t turn in the ignition, gets stuck, or the ignition cylinder feels loose, you likely need ignition repair or replacement. Worn ignition cylinders are common in older vehicles or cars with heavy key rings that put stress on the mechanism. We can remove the old cylinder, install a new one, and cut keys to match. In some cases, we can repair the existing ignition and save you money.
Broken key extraction. Keys break off in locks and ignitions more often than people realize, especially if the key is worn or you’re forcing it to turn. If part of your key is stuck inside the ignition or door lock, don’t try to dig it out yourself, you could push it deeper or damage the lock. We have specialized extraction tools that safely remove broken key fragments without harming the lock mechanism. Once it’s out, we can cut you a new key on the spot.
Local example: A driver locked keys in their SUV near Chastain Park Amphitheater. Our technician unlocked it in minutes without damage.
Emergency locksmith in Buckhead
Our emergency locksmith services are available from 7 AM to 11 PM, seven days a week, for situations that can’t wait:
Home & office lockouts. Getting locked out of your home or business is stressful, especially late at night or during bad weather. Whether you lost your keys, left them inside, or your lock suddenly stopped working, we’ll get you back in quickly. We use non-destructive entry methods whenever possible to avoid damage to your door or lock.
Burglary damage repair. If your property has been broken into, securing it immediately is critical to prevent further loss. We repair or replace damaged locks and door frames, install temporary security measures if needed, and help you assess what upgrades might prevent future break-ins. Many insurance companies require documentation of lock damage, and we can provide detailed invoices for your claim.
Urgent lock rekeying or replacement. Sometimes you need locks changed immediately, whether it’s a domestic situation, a terminated employee who won’t return keys, or a lost key that had your address attached. We carry common lock hardware and can rekey or replace your locks the same day. If you need something more specialized, we’ll install temporary secure locks until your permanent hardware arrives.
Lost key issues. Lost your only key and don’t have a spare? We can create new keys for most residential, commercial, and automotive locks. For cars, we can cut and program new keys even if you’ve lost all copies. For homes, we can rekey your locks so you don’t have to worry about whether someone might find your lost key and know where you live.
We typically arrive within 30-45 minutes, depending on traffic conditions along Peachtree Road and Roswell Road.
