Common questions

How fast can you get to me in Seattle?

Most lockouts in Seattle are reached within 20 to 40 minutes. The dispatcher gives you an arrival time when you call.

How much does a locksmith cost in Seattle?

It depends on the job. A standard car or house lockout is the most affordable call; car key replacement depends on the key type. Either way you get a firm price before any work starts, and there is no charge for the estimate.

Can you make a car key if I lost the only one?

Yes. We cut and program keys from scratch for almost every make and model, including transponder keys and push-to-start fobs, right where the car is. No tow to the dealer.

Will you damage my lock or my car?

No. Lockouts are opened with picks, bypass tools and air wedges, not drills or slim jims, whenever the lock allows it. If drilling is the only option we tell you first.

Should I rekey or replace my locks after moving?

If the hardware is in good shape, rekeying is cheaper and just as secure: the old keys stop working and you get one new key for every door. We replace only locks that are worn, damaged or low-grade.

Do you cover the whole 206 area?

Yes. Every Seattle neighborhood plus Burien, Renton, Bothell, Redmond, Bellevue, Kirkland, Lynnwood and Shoreline. Whether you call it the Emerald City, Jet City, Rain City and Seatown or just the 206, a technician is usually 20 to 40 minutes away.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Bob's Locksmith is licensed and insured, and every technician is background-checked and carries ID.
