Residential Locksmith

Locks that protect your home, your family, your peace of mind.

Your home is the one place that should always feel safe. Whether you just moved in, lost a key, or want to upgrade to a smart lock, we’ll make sure your front door is doing its job.

As a locally-owned Boise locksmith, we’ve helped thousands of Treasure Valley homeowners secure their houses, condos, townhomes, and rental properties. Every home tells a different story. The older homes in the North End and Boise Bench were built with character and original hardware that deserves careful work to preserve. The newer builds rising up in Meridian, Eagle, and Star are designed for modern smart-lock integration and connected security. The rental properties across Nampa and Caldwell need reliable, fast re-keys between tenants so landlords can turn units around without delay. Whatever style of home you have, whatever security challenge you face, we’ve handled it before and we’ll handle yours.

Most people don’t think about their locks until something goes wrong. A lost key during a busy week. A sticky deadbolt that finally gives up. A roommate who moved out without returning a copy. A burglary down the street that suddenly makes you wonder how secure your front door really is. When that moment comes, you want someone who picks up the phone the first time you call, gives you a straight answer about what it’ll cost, shows up when they said they would, and does the work properly the first time without trying to upsell you on something you don’t need.

That’s what we do, every day, across the Treasure Valley. Our technicians are licensed, insured, and background-checked. Our trucks are stocked with quality hardware from brands like Schlage, Yale, Kwikset, Medeco, and August so we can finish most jobs on the first visit. We treat your home like we’d want our own home treated, and we treat your time like we’d want our own time treated.

Every job starts with an honest conversation and a flat-rate quote. No upsells, no scare tactics, no “while I’m here, let me also replace this and that.” Just the right fix for your door, your security needs, and your budget. Whether it’s a fifteen-minute re-key or a full home hardware upgrade, you’ll know the price before we start and pay that price when we finish.

Our residential services

House Lockouts

Locked out of your own house? We use non-destructive entry techniques to get you back inside without damaging your door, frame, or lock. Most home lockouts are resolved in under 15 minutes.

Lock Re-Keying

Just moved in? Lost a key? Re-keying changes the internals of your existing lock so old keys no longer work, much cheaper than replacing the whole lock, and just as secure.

Smart Lock Installation

Keypad locks, Wi-Fi locks, video doorbell integration, we install the latest smart home security from Schlage, Yale, August, Kwikset, and more, and set everything up so it actually works on day one.

Deadbolt Upgrades

Builder-grade deadbolts pop in seconds with the right tool. We install Grade 1 and high-security deadbolts that actually resist forced entry, the kind of upgrade burglars hate.

Lock Replacement

Worn-out, damaged, or just outdated? We replace front doors, back doors, garage doors, sliding patio doors, and interior locks, matched to your home’s hardware finish.

Door Hardware

Knobs, levers, handlesets, strike plates, hinges, the small components that make a door secure and feel solid. We replace or upgrade any hardware you need.

Sliding & Patio Doors

Patio doors are a common entry point for break-ins. We install reinforced locks, security bars, and pin-style locks that make your sliding glass door actually secure.

Key Duplication

Need a spare for a partner, family member, or trusted neighbor? We cut high-quality duplicate keys that actually work, ask about our 50% off second key promo.

Rental Property Service

Property managers and landlords: bulk re-keys between tenants, master key systems for multi-unit buildings, and quick turnarounds on tenant transitions.

Mailbox & Cabinet Locks

Lost the key to your mailbox, gun safe, file cabinet, or storage chest? We open it without damage and cut you a working key, or replace the lock entirely.

Lost a key or just moved in?

A re-key takes about 15 minutes and costs a fraction of replacing the lock. Most jobs done same-day.

When Boise homeowners call us.

Sound familiar? Here’s what we hear from homeowners across the Valley every week.

“I just bought a house.”

You never know how many copies of those keys are floating around, old owners, real estate agents, contractors. Re-key everything and start fresh.

“I lost my keys somewhere.”

If your keys had your address attached (mail, ID), don’t wait. Re-key the doors before someone finds them.

“I locked myself out.”

It happens. Call us, we’ll come unlock the door without damage and you’ll be back inside fast.

“I want a keypad lock.”

No more hiding keys under rocks. We install Schlage, Yale, August, and other top brands, properly aligned and tested.

“My lock is sticking.”

Before it fails completely, usually at the worst time, let us service or replace it. Cheap fix now, big problem avoided.

“My ex still has a key.”

No questions asked. A quick re-key gives you peace of mind and a fresh set of keys you control.

Common questions, honest answers.

How much does it cost to re-key a house in Boise?+
Pricing depends on the number of locks and the type of hardware on your doors. A standard re-key for a few exterior locks is one of our most affordable services. We’ll give you a flat-rate quote before we dispatch, no surprises.
What’s the difference between re-keying and replacing a lock?+
Re-keying changes the internal pins of your existing lock so old keys no longer work, but the lock body stays. It’s faster and cheaper than replacement. Replacing is necessary when locks are damaged, worn out, or you want to upgrade to better hardware. We’ll recommend whichever is right for your situation.
Can you make a key for a lock if I have no key?+
Yes. We can decode most residential locks and cut a working key on-site without needing the original. For deadbolts and high-security locks this is a routine job.
Do you install smart locks I bought myself?+
Yes, we install owner-supplied smart locks from any major brand. Schlage Encode, Yale Assure, August, Kwikset Halo, Level, and more. We’ll make sure the alignment, strike plate, and connection are all set up properly so it actually works long-term.
Will a smart lock work if my Wi-Fi goes down?+
Yes. All quality smart locks still work as a regular keypad or with a physical key even without Wi-Fi. You just lose remote control features (unlocking from your phone, activity logs) until the connection comes back.
Can you help if I’m locked out late at night?+
Our service hours are Mon–Sat 8AM–9PM. We don’t offer after-hours emergency service, but if you call during business hours we’ll get to you fast, usually within 15 minutes across the Boise metro.
Do you provide service for rental properties?+
Absolutely. We work with property managers and individual landlords across the Valley on tenant-transition re-keys, lock repairs, master key systems, and bulk hardware upgrades. Set up a recurring service account if you manage multiple properties.
How long does a typical residential job take?+
Most lockouts and re-keys take 15-30 minutes. Smart lock installations usually take 30-60 minutes per door. Larger jobs (multiple doors, hardware replacement) we’ll quote with an estimated time when you call.
