Standard commercial lockout: $125-$200 during business hours (8 AM - 6 PM weekdays). After-hours (nights, weekends, holidays): $175-$250. Price depends on lock type (standard vs. high-security), door type (glass storefront vs. steel security door), and urgency. Emergency rush service (customer waiting, revenue loss): add $50-$75. We provide exact quote before dispatch. Price includes entry service; lock rekeying or replacement is additional if needed.

Yes. We require verification before unlocking commercial property: Business license or tax ID matching address, lease agreement showing you as tenant, property deed for owners, employee ID for authorized managers, or utility bill in business name. For property managers, we need authorization from property owner. We may call property owner to verify. This protects your business from unauthorized access - we NEVER unlock commercial property without verification.

Most commercial lockouts are resolved by lock picking (10-30 minutes). Glass storefronts and standard commercial doors are unlocked quickly. High-security locks take longer (30-60 minutes) but still no damage. You can resume business immediately after we unlock - no repairs needed.

We're equipped for high-security commercial locks including Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Schlage Primus, ASSA, and commercial-grade deadbolts. High-security systems take longer to pick (30-60 minutes vs. 15-30 minutes for standard locks) due to complex pin arrangements and security features. Cost is higher ($175-$250 vs. $125-$200) reflecting specialized tools and expertise. In rare cases where high-security lock cannot be picked, we'll recommend lock cylinder replacement - we carry commercial-grade cylinders in our trucks.
