24/7 Locksmith Service
If you live in Vaughan long enough, you learn two things fast: winters are brutal - and keys always pick the worst moment to disappear. That's where we come in. We're A1 Locksmith Vaughan - your local, long-time, no-nonsense locksmith service, serving Vaughan and the surrounding towns for over 20 years. Rain, shine, or snowbanks up to your knees, we show up when you need us. Always have. Always will.
You're not just looking for a "locksmith near me". You want someone who knows the area, knows the locks, and doesn't talk to you like a robot reading a script. That's us. We're real people - born here, raised here, working here. We've picked locks on Rutherford, rekeyed storefronts in Woodbridge, and done car key replacements in the middle of rush hour at Vaughan Mills. It's not glamorous, but it's what we do.
One guy called us from the Walmart parking lot in the middle of July. His toddler pressed the lock button while the keys were still in the car. Classic. We were there in 12 minutes flat. Doors open. No damage. Toddler still laughing. That's the thing about being a 24 hour locksmith - you never know what kind of day (or night) you're about to walk into.
And yes, we've had to unlock a front door at 3 a.m. during a snowstorm because someone ran out to grab Uber Eats without their keys. Don't worry - we didn't judge. We just got the door open, made sure they were safe, and left them to enjoy their shawarma.
It's not just about locks. It's about your home security. Your safety. Your peace of mind. When someone moves out - a roommate, an ex, a tenant - call us. We rekey locks fast, without making a scene. One woman in Thornhill called us after her tenant skipped town. We were there the same day, changed the deadbolt, and even helped her choose a better keypad door lock with backup keys. That's what we mean when we say we care.
Vaughan's full of shops, warehouses, clinics - and every one of them needs good locks. We've done commercial locksmith work for everything from car dealerships to dental offices. Installed Medeco locks, set up master key systems, fixed broken safes, and even replaced a jammed Yale lock on a back office door with ten minutes to go before a staff meeting.
If your business can't afford downtime - and let's be honest, who can - keep our number close. We don't just show up, we show up fast and fix it right the first time.
We hear this daily. Everyone wants to know about locksmith prices - and fair enough. Here's the straight talk: standard door unlocks or lockpick jobs run between $90& - $120, depending on the situation. After-hours and holidays cost more - not because we're greedy, but because it's 2 a.m. and someone's driving out in the cold to help you. We always tell you the full price before we start. No weird add-ons. No surprises. You deserve better than that.
There's never a good time to lock your keys in the car. Whether it's outside a gym, a grocery store, or your kid's hockey practice - it's always the wrong moment. Luckily, our automotive locksmith team is mobile, fast, and trained to handle everything from manual locks to modern fob key programming. We once replaced a car key in a parking garage with 4% battery on our flashlight. Didn't miss a beat.
And yes - we do car key replacement near me calls constantly. Dodge, Ford, Toyota, BMW, you name it. Our techs are equipped to cut, program, and test on-site. No dealership markup. No towing. Just back to driving like nothing happened.
We've all seen the online videos - "how to pick a lock in 30 seconds!" Here's a tip: if you saw it on TikTok, don't trust it with your front door. We've fixed plenty of doors folks tried to DIY with butter knives, credit cards, and magnets. If you're curious about better security, ask us. We'll explain the difference between smart locks, Weiser smart lock reset procedures, and why Medeco still makes some of the toughest hardware around.
If your lock's sticking, or your fob key is acting weird, don't wait until 11 p.m. to deal with it. Call us during daylight - seriously. Fixing it now is cheaper and less stressful than calling us while standing outside in your socks at midnight. We love emergency lockout work, but we also love saving you the headache.
We once got called to a house in Maple to unlock a stuck lockbox - the kind realtors use. The client had left their wedding ring inside by accident before heading out of town. The new homeowner couldn't get it open. We drove out, carefully opened it without damage, and found not just the ring - but a note inside from the seller thanking the new owners. That one stuck with us.
We're not a franchise. We're not a dispatch company from Toronto pretending to be in Vaughan. We're actual local locksmiths who've worked this area for over 20 years. You might've seen our vans. Or our stickers on doors we rekeyed. Our techs wear real uniforms, carry real ID, and explain everything before they start. We don't do mystery pricing or cut corners. That's just not how we operate.
