In this blog entry, the professional Daytona emergency lockout service team here at Green Locksmith Daytona will detail some commonly asked questions that we get asked regarding our 24/7 emergency Daytona lockout services.
Do lockout prices depend on the lock type?
Usually lockouts cost the same amount of money. Sometimes there’s an odd lock that will need to be drilled and replaced – a process that generally the Daytona locksmith experts here at Green Locksmith Daytona try to avoid. This may cost a different late than typical lockout service or rekeying service.
How do locksmiths open house doors?
There’s a few ways that locksmiths use to open residential doors, usually using standard lock picks, specialized lock picks, bump keys, and other tools. In nearly 100% of lockouts, we can pick the rock without damaging the existing lock or door. However, in the event this cannot be done we will replace the lock, providing you a higher quality lock that provides you with more robust security.
Can locksmith open apartment doors?
Many apartment buildings use high security keys that are somewhat harder to pick. In cases of apartment front door locks, our team will need to get permission from the apartment owner in order to pick the front door lock.
Can you make a new key from a lost key?
Yes, depending. This is a pretty common request with apartment buildings. Building managers might keep key copies in cabinets. Tenants might not want to change their key, as the key might be on a master key system. Our team can easily make a key for the existing lock that will allow YOU to access the property and still allow apartment managers to easily access units for easy repairs or in emergency situations.
