Locksmith services in Kenmore, WA
Everything from a 2 a.m. lockout to a full-building rekey
Most calls fit one of these. If yours does not, ask anyway.
House and apartment lockouts
Back inside your home, condo or apartment without a broken door.
- Least destructive method first
- Newer deadbolts, like Kwikset SmartKey, can need drilling. We say so and price the replacement before we start
Car lockouts
Keys in the car, in the trunk, or locked in with a child or a dog: tell us when you call, because it changes how fast we move.
- Damage-free methods first
- Tell us your make and model so we can plan the safest entry
Car keys, fobs and programming
Lost all your keys, one spare left, a key snapped in the ignition, or a dead fob.
- Tell us your year, make and model when you call
- We tell you before we drive out if your car is outside what we do
Rekeying and lock changes
New place, a tenant or roommate moved out, a missing key. We rekey what you have, or replace worn hardware when rekeying will not fix it.
- Rekey makes old keys useless
- Replace when hardware is worn or damaged
Repairs, deadbolts and smart locks
Sticking deadbolts, loose handle sets, strike plates that do not line up, keypad and smart lock setups.
- Tell us your lock brand and model when you call
- Door and strike-plate adjustments
Commercial locksmith

- Describe your doors on the phone and we quote before we visit
- Invoices for your records
Our process
Our process: from your call to a finished job
- A person answers with the business name. We ask where you are (a cross street helps), what the lock or car is, and who is with you.
- We tell you the price. A number for simple jobs, or a range and what moves it.
- We give you an arrival time. An honest one, based on where you are and the traffic.
- The technician arrives with photo ID.
- We confirm you belong there. Photo ID plus something that links you to the place or car, like mail or a registration.
- We open it the gentlest way that works. If a lock has to be drilled, we say so and agree the price first.
- We test everything, hand you a receipt, and take payment.
What does not happen: a surprise “extra fee” at your door, a cash-only demand, or a refusal to give you a price.

For duplicate and replacement keys, cut to fit and tested before we leave.
Key programming tools
For transponder keys and fobs on supported vehicles. We confirm your year, make and model before we drive out.

Before you book anyone
Real Kenmore locksmith or call center? Check first.
Some “local” listings are call centers that dispatch whoever is free. The Washington Attorney General’s tips for hiring a locksmith match how we work:
- Ask for the legal business name. If the person answering just says “locksmith,” be wary.
- Ask for a price on the phone. A real locksmith gives a total or a range for most lockouts.
- Look for a real base and a marked vehicle.
- Expect to show ID. A legitimate locksmith confirms you own or rent the place.
- Get an invoice, and check BBB and reviews.
- If you feel unsafe, you can refuse the work.

Locked out near the water, the trail or the park?
A lot of locked cars start with a good day outside. Log Boom Park has a public pier for watching Kenmore Air Harbor seaplanes, the Burke-Gilman Trail runs through town, and Saint Edward State Park covers more than 300 acres of trails and shoreline. It is easy to shut the car and realize the keys are inside. Call us with the park name or cross street and your car’s make, and we will tell you what to expect.
Local conditions
Why locks and keys act up around here
Kenmore has a mild, wet marine climate: damp, cool winters and dry summers. A few things follow from that.
Wet winters
Damp can swell wood doors and make deadbolts bind. If a key suddenly turns hard, do not force it. Call before it snaps.
Windstorms and outages
Western Washington gets windstorms most fall and winter seasons. A power cut is rarely why a keypad lock fails. A dead battery is.
Older and newer homes
Nearly half of Kenmore homes were built between 1970 and 1999, so worn hardware is common. Newer condo communities often come with smart locks.
Lots of renters
Roughly 3 in 10 households rent, so keys change hands often. Rekeying at move-in is the cheap way to know who has a copy.
Damp air is also hard on outdoor padlocks, gate latches and mailbox locks.
Car keys
Car keys, fobs and key programming in Kenmore
Most cars made in the last couple of decades need a key or fob that is programmed to the car, not just cut. We do that where you are, so there is no tow.
What we need from you:
- Year, make and model
- Proof it is your car (registration, title or insurance)
- Photo ID
What we will tell you honestly: Tell us the year, make and model when you call. Some European brands need specialist equipment, so if yours is one, we say so on the phone rather than waste your time.
Tip: making a spare while you still have a working key is usually simpler than starting from zero after the last one is gone.
For property and business
Landlords, property managers and small businesses
Landlords and property managers
- Turnover rekeys on a schedule. Ask about multi-unit pricing
- In Washington, a landlord generally cannot lock a tenant out without a court order. We ask for proof of authority before changing a rental’s locks, which protects you as much as the tenant.
Small businesses
- Rekey after staff changes
- Master key systems, panic bars and exit devices, keypad access
- Describe your door on the phone and we can often quote before we visit
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about locksmiths in Kenmore, WA
How fast can a locksmith get to me in Kenmore?
Traffic on SR 522 and the time of day can change that, so we give you an honest arrival time when you call.
How much does a locksmith cost in Kenmore, WA?
It depends on the job, the lock, the time of day and the distance. Our prices are in the table above, and we give you a number or a range before we drive out.
Do locksmiths need a license in Washington?
Washington does not have a state locksmith license. Its locksmith law (RCW 19.355) is about honest advertising: a locksmith cannot misrepresent where it is located. So the best protection is to check the company yourself. Ask for the legal business name, a price on the phone, and expect to show ID.
How do I know a Kenmore locksmith is not a scam?
Ask for the legal business name, a price on the phone and a UBI number. Expect to show ID, expect a marked vehicle if the company says it has one, and get an invoice. If any of that is missing, call someone else.
Will you damage my lock or door?
We try the least destructive method first. Some newer locks, like SmartKey cylinders, sometimes need drilling. If yours does, we tell you and price the replacement before we start.
What ID do you need before you open my door or car?
Photo ID, plus something that links you to the property or the car, such as mail, a lease, a registration or a title. If we cannot confirm it, we cannot open it.
Should I rekey or replace my locks?
If your locks work smoothly and are in decent shape, rekeying is usually the cheaper fix because it makes the old keys useless. Replace the hardware when it is worn or damaged, or when you want an upgrade like a smart lock.
How long does a rekey take?
Most standard locks take roughly 10 to 30 minutes each. A whole house takes longer, and we estimate it when you call.
Can you make a car key if I have lost all my keys?
Often, yes. Tell us the year, make and model and we confirm before we drive out. You will need to prove ownership and show ID. For some European brands, we tell you whether we can do it before we drive out.
My keypad lock stopped working during a power outage. What now?
Most keypad deadbolts run on batteries, so the outage is probably not the cause. Try fresh batteries first. Many models also have a key override or contacts where a 9-volt battery can wake the lock. If it is still stuck, call us.
Can you help if I am a landlord changing locks?
Yes, with proof you own or manage the place. Washington landlords generally cannot lock a tenant out without a court order, so we ask for paperwork first.
What areas do you serve besides Kenmore?
We also cover Bothell and Lake Forest Park, including ZIPs 98028, 98125 and 98155. If you are near the edge, call and we will tell you honestly.
