Common home lockout causes we resolve daily include:
- Keys locked inside the house
- Lost or misplaced house keys
- Broken key in the lock
- Frozen or jammed door locks
- Malfunctioning smart locks

Rekeying and Lock Replacement After Lockouts
In some cases, a lockout reveals the need for improved home security. If you've lost your keys and are concerned they could fall into the wrong hands, our locksmiths can immediately rekey your locks or replace them entirely. Rekeying is a fast, affordable way to render old keys useless by changing the internal pins of the lock, giving you peace of mind without the cost of a full lock replacement.
If your locks are outdated, compromised, or showing signs of wear, we offer a wide selection of residential lock upgrades—including smart locks, keypad entry systems, and ANSI Grade 1 security locks. Our team can consult with you about the best options for your property, ensuring both convenience and protection.
Key Duplication and Spare Keys On-Site
One of the best ways to avoid a future home lockout is to have duplicate keys readily available. DC Mobile Locksmith offers on-site key cutting services, allowing you to create spare keys right from our mobile unit. We duplicate keys for all major lock brands and provide smart key programming for digital and electronic locks.
Consider giving a trusted family member, friend, or neighbor a spare key, or using a secure outdoor key lockbox—available through our locksmiths—for added peace of mind.
High-Security Lockouts and Advanced Entry Methods
For homes with high-security locks, multi-point locking systems, or keyless entry systems, it's essential to hire a locksmith with advanced skills and specialized tools. Our team is proficient in handling high-end locking mechanisms and can resolve complex lockout scenarios without compromising your security system.
Whether your smart lock isn’t responding, your keypad lock has failed, or your biometric reader won’t scan, we diagnose and fix the issue efficiently. We also provide battery replacements, firmware resets, and emergency override access for electronic locks.
