Why Call Us

Not All Emergency Locksmiths Are Equal

Search "emergency locksmith" and you'll find dozens of results. Many are call centers in other states that dispatch random contractors, quote one price on the phone, then charge two or three times more when they arrive. Some aren't even licensed.

Frederick Locks & Keys is different. We're a real, local locksmith based in Frederick. When you call, you're talking to us — not a call center. When we quote a price, that's the price. Period.

Real Local Locksmith

We're based right here in Frederick — not a call center in Texas dispatching a random guy with a van.

Price You're Quoted = Price You Pay

No bait-and-switch. No "oh it's actually more than we said." The phone quote is the final price.

No After-Hours Surcharge

Same price at midnight as midday. We don't penalize you for having an emergency at an inconvenient time.

Non-Destructive Entry

We don't drill unless absolutely necessary. Our technicians are trained to open locks without damage.

After a Break-In

What to Do After a Break-In

If your home or business has been burglarized, follow these steps to protect yourself and preserve evidence for police.

Call 911 if Anyone May Still Be Inside

Do not enter the property. Wait for police to clear the scene before going inside.

Don't Touch Anything

Leave everything as-is for police to document. Don't clean up, move items, or touch damaged locks — fingerprint evidence matters.
