Emergency Apartment Lockout Service

Fast apartment lockout service in Austin. Work with property managers, bypass access gates, 30-minute response. $75-$150, licensed locksmiths available 24/7.

Apartments are tricky. You have gates, lobbies, and 3rd-floor walks. We know the drill. We respect property management rules while fighting for your right to enter your home.

Proof of Residency

“My ID is inside!” It happens.

  • We can open the door conditionally.
  • Once open, you MUST show us your ID or Lease immediately.
  • If you can’t, we have to call the police.

Do Not Drill

Protect Your Deposit

  • Amateur locksmiths drill locks.
  • The Landlord will charge you ($200+) to replace it.
  • We pick locks. We leave no trace.

Frequently Asked Questions

Permission needed?

If you are the legal tenant, YOU have the right to access. We just need to verify your ID/Lease. We don't need the manager's permission unless we need *their* help to bypass a gate.

Gate Code?

If you're stuck outside the gate, we can follow other cars in (tailgating) or call the security office. We deal with this every day.

ID is inside?

Common problem. We can open the door, then you immediately show us your ID/Lease inside. If not, we may need police verification.

Will you damage the lock?

No. We pick the lock. You likely have a standard Kwikset or Schlage. We don't want you losing your security deposit.

Can I call Maintenance?

Yes! If it's 2pm on a Tuesday, call them first—it might be free. If it's 2am on Saturday, call us.
