Our price promise, in writing, before you call.

Most locksmiths say "call for a quote". That is exactly the gap the fake ones use. Ours is confirmed before we drive, the same at 2 am as at 2 pm, with any after-hours charge stated on the phone.

The rule: we quote at the door, you say yes, then we work. If the job turns out bigger, we stop and ask again.

    Just moved in? Rekey, don't replace.

    You don't know who still has a key. A rekey changes the pins so old keys stop working, usually for less than half the cost of new locks.

Winnipeg locks fail in Winnipeg ways.

Frozen lock

Warm the key in your hand or with a lighter for a few seconds, then try gently. Never pour hot water: it refreezes deeper. Still stuck? Text us.

Fob dead at minus 30

Cold kills fob batteries first. Most fobs hide a metal key inside. If yours doesn't, we can cut and program one where you're parked.

Locked out with the car running

Remote starter on, keys inside? A classic January lockout here. Car lockout: price confirmed before we drive.

How to spot a fake locksmith in Winnipeg.

Search results here are full of call centres posing as local shops. Five signs, and how we answer each one.

  1. Won't say where they're based.Ask where they're based and who's coming, then check the name matches the invoice and the vehicle.
  2. A cheap phone quote that triples at the door.Ours: published above. You approve it before work starts.
  3. "We'll have to drill it."Ours: pick first. Drilling is a last resort and we say why.
  4. A toll-free number or a generic "locksmith service" answer.Ours: one local 204 number, answered with our name.
  5. "Licensed locksmith" in Manitoba.Manitoba doesn't license locksmiths. So ask any locksmith for proof of liability insurance, a criminal record check for whoever comes to the door, and WCB coverage.
