Not locked out? Good. Let's keep it that way. Harbor Emergency Locksmith handles more than emergencies. We take care of everyday lock and key services that keep your home, business, and vehicle working like they should. From key copies to high-security hardware, we're the team Baltimore trusts to make things click - literally.
Having an extra key isn't just convenient. It's peace of mind. We duplicate house keys, car keys, and more - cut accurately and tested before we hand them over. No more guessing if your spare actually works when you need it.
We make keys for:
And yes - we can clone fobs, transponders, and smart keys too. One customer brought in a worn-out house key from the 80s taped together in two pieces. We rebuilt it, cut a new one, and it worked on the first try. That's the kind of key work we love.
A lock that sticks, grinds, or only works if you hold it just right is a lock asking to fail. Don't wait until it traps you inside - or keeps you out. We repair locks of all types, from common doorknobs to mortise locks and specialty hardware.
Common issues we fix:
If it can be repaired, we'll fix it. If it can't, we carry replacements in the van and will show you options that work for your door and your budget.
Snap. That sound no one wants to hear. When a key breaks off inside a lock, don't force it. Don't fish around with tweezers. Just stop and call. We carry key extraction kits that can remove the broken piece without damaging the lock itself.
This is especially common in older doors with worn keys or in freezing weather when locks resist turning. One winter, we helped a teacher in Towson who snapped a key in the cylinder. She was ready to replace the whole thing - we got the broken piece out and made her a stronger copy in 10 minutes.
If you're moving in, changing tenants, or just unsure who has copies of your keys, rekeying is your first move. We reset the pins inside the lock cylinder to match a new key. The old ones stop working, and your hardware stays in place. It's fast, secure, and cost-effective.
We rekey:
We can also rekey multiple locks to a single key if the hardware matches. Say goodbye to carrying five different keys for one house.
Not all locks are created equal. If you're serious about protecting your property, we can help you upgrade. Whether it's bump-proof cylinders, anti-drill plates, or digital keyless locks with access control features, we install hardware that holds up and locks that actually lock.
Hardware we install:
We installed high-security locks for a homeowner in Fells Point after a series of nearby break-ins. A month later, the neighbor had a forced entry. His door held. They called us the next day to do theirs too.
People are often surprised by how many types of keys we can duplicate or service. If it turns, slides, or clicks - we've probably cut one like it.
We work with:
Not every lock issue is a crisis. Sometimes it's just time to tune things up, get a fresh key cut, or replace that old doorknob that takes too much force. Harbor Emergency Locksmith is here for all your lock and key service needs - no matter how big or small.
