Emergency locksmith in Ottawa — available 24/7
Locked out late at night or early in the morning? Call for vehicle and door opening across Ottawa and Gatineau, in English or French.
What to do when you need lockout help
Call 613-355-9886 and explain whether you are locked out of a vehicle, home or business. Give your exact address or nearest intersection and a phone number where we can reach you. For a vehicle, share the make, model and year if available.
Stay in a safe place while arranging service. If a person or animal is in immediate danger inside a vehicle or building, call 911 immediately and follow the dispatcher’s instructions.
Availability and arrival estimates
We take calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week throughout Ottawa and Gatineau. Arrival depends on your location, traffic and current availability. Ask for an estimate when calling rather than relying on a universal response-time claim.
Explain any parking or building access restrictions so the technician can find the right entrance. The contact form is for enquiries; submitting it does not confirm a dispatch.
Emergency call pricing
The service call charge is $30 CAD and is payable regardless of whether opening work proceeds or access is restored. Car opening starts at $110 plus the service call; residential opening starts at $120 plus the service call. Taxes are extra.
An additional $50–100 may apply depending on the time and location. The technician assesses the situation on arrival and explains the complete price before starting opening work. Commercial opening is priced according to the door and circumstances.
Experienced opening assistance
Our licensed and insured service has more than 10 years of experience. We open locked vehicles, houses, apartments, condos, offices and shops. Authorization to access the vehicle or property may need to be verified.
Services include lockout opening, key cutting, vehicle key services, rekeying, lock repair and installation, safes and commercial access hardware. The requested work, compatibility, authorization and price are assessed before work begins. An enquiry does not confirm a dispatch.
