Your local locksmith in Roswell, GA
Roswell isn’t like other Atlanta suburbs. You’ve got historic homes near the Square that are over 100 years old sitting a few miles from brand-new construction in East Roswell. You’ve got busy Canton Street with its restaurants and boutiques, quiet neighborhoods like Martins Landing, and commuters fighting traffic on Holcomb Bridge Road every morning.
That mix means lock and key problems here aren’t one-size-fits-all. The vintage mortise lock on your 1920s bungalow needs different expertise than the smart lock on a new build in Horseshoe Bend.
Jefferson Locksmith Atlanta is based in Tucker, about 25 to 35 minutes from most Roswell locations depending on traffic. We’re not a national call center. We’re a local team that’s been serving North Atlanta for years, and we know the difference between a quick rekey job in a subdivision and a careful restoration repair on an antique lock.
Typical response time to Roswell: 25 to 40 minutes depending on your location and traffic on GA-400 or Holcomb Bridge.
Locked out in Roswell? Here's what to do
Locked out of your home
Whether you’re in a historic cottage near Roswell Square or a newer home in Saddle Creek, don’t try to force the door open. You’ll damage the frame, the lock, or both, and end up paying more than a simple lockout call.
Call us, stay somewhere safe, and we’ll get you back inside without damage. If you’re a renter, we can provide documentation for your landlord. Learn more about our residential locksmith services.

Residential locksmith services in Roswell
Roswell’s housing stock is unique. You’ve got antebellum-era homes in the Historic District, mid-century ranches, 1990s subdivisions, and brand-new construction. We work on all of them.
Lock installation and upgrades
From basic deadbolts to high-security Medeco and Schlage systems. If you just bought a home, we recommend rekeying your locks before you move in. Previous owners, their relatives, old contractors, real estate agents… you never know who has a copy of your keys.
Historic home lock repair
Older Roswell homes often have mortise locks, antique hardware, or non-standard door preparations. We repair and restore vintage locks when possible, and we know how to find compatible replacement hardware when the original is beyond saving. More on our door lock repair services.
Smart lock installation
Want keyless entry? We install August, Yale, Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, and other smart locks. Great for families juggling kids, dog walkers, and house cleaners who all need access at different times.
Key duplication
Need spare keys for family members or a pet sitter? We cut standard keys on-site. Visit our key duplication page for details.
Mailbox, garage, and interior door locks
We handle more than front doors. Bedroom privacy locks, garage entry doors, mailboxes, storage units: if it has a lock, we can help.
Commercial locksmith services in Roswell
Roswell has a thriving business community. Restaurants and boutiques on Canton Street, medical practices near North Fulton Hospital, professional offices along Alpharetta Highway, and retail at Roswell Town Center. We serve them all.
Master key systems
If you manage multiple doors, a master key system lets you access everything with one key while restricting employee access to specific areas. Ideal for office buildings, retail stores, and property management companies.
High-security locks
For businesses handling cash, patient records, or sensitive inventory, we install commercial-grade locks that resist picking, bumping, and drilling.
Access control systems
Keypad entry, card readers, and electronic locks. We install, program, and service access control for offices, gyms, medical practices, and retail locations.
Panic bars and exit devices
Fire code requires panic hardware on emergency exits. We install and repair push bars to keep your business compliant.
Storefront lock repair
Glass door locks, aluminum storefront hardware, and commercial deadbolts. We repair and replace locks on all types of business entrances.
Business lockouts and rekeying
Locked out before opening? Employee turnover? We rekey locks quickly so you don’t have to replace all your hardware.
Automotive locksmith services in Roswell
Modern car keys are expensive. Dealerships charge $300 to $500 for a replacement fob and make you wait days. We do it on-site, usually in under an hour, for significantly less.
Car key replacement
Lost your only key? No problem. We cut and program replacement keys for most makes and models: Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevy, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, and more. See our car key replacement services.
Key fob programming
Push-to-start vehicles need proximity fobs. We supply and program replacements on-site, usually faster than the dealership can even schedule you. Learn more about key fob programming.
Transponder key cutting
Most cars made after 2000 have transponder chips. We cut and program these keys to sync with your vehicle’s immobilizer.
Ignition repair
The key won’t turn? Ignition cylinder worn out or jammed? We diagnose and repair ignition problems without a tow truck.
Broken key extraction
Key snapped off in the door or ignition? We extract it safely and cut you a new one on the spot.

Customer reviews
We bought a 1940s home near Roswell Square and needed all the old locks serviced. Jefferson’s technician actually knew how to work on the original mortise locks instead of just trying to replace everything. Really appreciated the expertise.
