What do emergency locksmith services include?

If you think only careless people need an emergency locksmith, think again. While 24-hour locksmiths indeed come in handy when you've accidentally locked yourself out of your house or car, they can also help with situations like cutting new keys, putting in new locks after a break-in, opening a safe, and extracting jammed keys. 

When you hire an emergency locksmith via Airtasker, you can expect them to request proof of ownership or residence - usually in the form of IDs or mail. This step assures them that they are not aiding a criminal and shows you that even if someone can technically break into your property, there is still a certain level of security that you can expect. 

While each emergency locksmith service has its own specialties and processes, here's what you might generally expect when you hire a 24/7 locksmith through our platform:

Unlocking your home, car, or office

If you've locked yourself out of (or even inside) your home, vehicle, or office, don't panic. Instead, request a local emergency locksmith. Within an hour of your task post, you can expect an emergency residential or car locksmith to arrive at your location. They'll use special tools and techniques to get you in (or out of) your property with zero to minimal damage to your locks. 

Replacing locks and keys

There are many reasons why you might need to replace your keys or change the locks. Say, for example, you want to upgrade your security, deny access to old tenants, secure your home after a burglary, or replace a broken key or lock. 

An emergency locksmith can help you by installing the new locks or cutting new keys. What's great about these 24/7 locksmith services is that you can count on them to get to your location even during odd hours. This is especially important for property owners worrying about their security and privacy immediately after a break-in. 

If you're looking to upgrade your home security by putting up a gate, you can also book a Tasker who can do this for you.

Emergency car locksmith services

Car lockouts, broken key fobs or transponder chips, snapped keys, and jammed ignition locks are all in a day's work for emergency car locksmiths. Whether you're in your driveway, the office car park, or an unfamiliar location, you can easily find a nearby Tasker who can help you solve the problem and be on your way. 

If the car doesn't start even after the lock and key problems are fixed, you can also use our platform to find the nearest mobile mechanic in your area. 

Safe opening

Some emergency locksmiths may also have the skills and tools needed to break into a safe. In situations where a safe is turned over or passed down without any key, combination, or clues on how to open it, a trusted emergency locksmith can help you out.
