- Call for a quote
Call for a house lockout quote in Indianapolis based on your door, lock and location. In most cases the lock is picked open, which takes 2 to 10 minutes and leaves your existing key working. Drilling is a last resort used only on failed or high-security locks, and only after you approve the replacement cost.

How it works
Describe the door and lock
Knob-only, deadbolt, smart lock or high-security cylinder — each takes a different approach and a different amount of time.
Have proof of residency ready
A licence with the address, a lease, a utility bill or a piece of addressed mail inside the home all work.
Lock is picked open
Standard residential pin-tumbler locks are picked in 2 to 10 minutes with no damage and no change to your key.
Optional rekey on the spot
If you lost the key rather than locked it inside, ask about rekeying while the technician is already there — it is far cheaper than a second visit.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about house lockout in the Indianapolis metro.
Will you have to drill my lock?
Almost never. Standard residential pin-tumbler locks are picked open in 2 to 10 minutes with no damage. Drilling is reserved for locks that have already failed internally, or for high-security cylinders that cannot be picked in a reasonable time. In either case the technician tells you first and gives you a cost estimate before drilling.
What proof do I need that I live there?
A driver licence showing the address is simplest. A lease, a utility bill, a bank statement or addressed mail inside the property also works. If your ID shows an old address, the technician can work with a combination of documents. This check protects your home from being opened for someone else.
Can you get into an apartment if I lost my key?
Yes, but apartment policies vary. Many complexes require the leasing office to authorise entry, and some leases require you to use their maintenance staff. If the office is closed, a lease or utility bill in your name at that unit is normally sufficient for us to proceed.
I lost my keys entirely — should I rekey?
Yes, if the keys are genuinely lost rather than locked inside. Anyone holding them can open your door, and a lost keyring with an address tag is a real risk. Rekeying while the technician is already on site costs far less than booking a second visit, and your old keys stop working immediately.
Do you open sliding doors and patio locks?
Yes. Sliding patio doors, French doors and secondary storm doors are all serviceable. Sliding doors sometimes need the panel lifted off its track, which takes a little longer than a standard door but is still non-destructive.
