Lost Storage Unit Keys? We Can Help.

Losing access to your storage unit key can create major disruptions, especially if the lock is high-security or custom-fit by the storage facility. In most cases, we can unlock your unit without needing the original key. Our locksmiths are trained in precision lock picking, padlock removal, bolt cutter use (when authorized), and other non-destructive unlocking methods.

If a key replacement is needed, we can cut a new one on the spot or replace the lock entirely depending on the type. Our technicians carry a wide selection of replacement locks and tools designed for storage unit lock service.

Storage Padlock Removal and Replacement

Many storage units use disc padlocks or heavy-duty shrouded padlocks for maximum security. These locks are built to resist bolt cutters and are often very difficult to remove without the right tools. Fortunately, DC Mobile Locksmith technicians are trained in advanced methods to open and replace storage padlocks efficiently. We use professional-grade equipment that allows us to cut, grind, or pick these locks without damaging your storage door.

Once the old padlock is removed, we can install a new lock immediately to secure your unit. We stock high-security padlocks and storage locks that meet or exceed facility guidelines in DC.

Forgotten Combination Lock on Storage Door?

Combination locks—whether dial, push-button, or digital—can easily become a point of frustration when you forget the code. DC Mobile Locksmith can help retrieve access to your storage space by decoding or bypassing the combination lock safely. Our locksmiths use specialized tools and manual techniques to manipulate the locking mechanism without damaging the unit or the door itself.

If the lock is beyond repair or reset, we’ll remove and replace it with a new lock and provide you with the access credentials.

Keyless and Electronic Storage Lockout Services

As more facilities in Washington, DC move toward electronic access control, keyless storage lockouts are becoming more common. Whether you're dealing with a malfunctioning keypad, a dead battery in your electronic lock, or a software failure with your access card or mobile entry system, our technicians are trained in handling electronic lockouts.

We can diagnose and resolve most smart lock issues on-site, restore entry, and provide backup options if your keyless system fails. This includes troubleshooting for Bluetooth-enabled storage locks and smartphone-connected storage systems.

On-Site Storage Room Lockouts in Residential and Commercial Buildings

Many apartment complexes, offices, and mixed-use buildings in DC feature private or shared storage rooms. When you're locked out of these on-site storage areas—whether due to a lost key, jammed door, or tenant turnover—DC Mobile Locksmith can help. We unlock hallway storage closets, basement storage cages, and rooftop storage sheds used by residents and building managers alike.

Our mobile locksmiths arrive with all the tools needed to open standard and specialty door locks, sliding locks, or utility room security systems. We also provide rekeying and lock upgrades for added security following tenant changes or unauthorized access.
