Higher-security pricing applies. The exact additional amount is confirmed from the specific vehicle and key system.
Know what to expect before the locksmith arrives.
APD publishes practical starting estimates for common work. Automotive pricing is narrowed by the vehicle. Residential pricing stays straightforward for standard work. Commercial hardware and materials are quoted separately.
How APD can help
Prices shown are estimates or starting prices—not guaranteed final quotes. Final pricing may change because of vehicle year/make/model, key or security system, lock/hardware type, number of cylinders, parts availability, service location, job complexity, after-hours conditions, unusual door or lock conditions, or special requests. APD confirms the actual scope and price before work begins whenever possible.
We would rather give you a useful estimate than a fake one-size-fits-all price. If the job changes, requires special hardware, or the vehicle uses a different security system than expected, APD will explain the difference before continuing whenever possible.
Tell us what you drive for a better estimate.
Vehicle keys are not all priced the same. Year, make, model, key style, working-key status and security system can change the work required.
Typically $10–$20 higher than the comparable verified APD base price, depending on the exact key and procedure.
Vehicle-specific estimate required when a verified flat website price has not been approved. APD will not invent one.
Typical pricing for standard home service.
Most ordinary residential work can stay predictable. Specialty hardware, unusual conditions and customer-requested upgrades are quoted separately.
Standard service
Residential / PCS packages
Discount policy: If APD sells the job as one eligible bundled service price, the percentage discount applies to that full bundle. If parts, hardware or materials are itemized separately, the discount applies only to eligible service/labor lines. Trip/service fees and separately itemized parts, hardware and materials remain at full price. Specialty conditions and special requests may also change the estimate.
See the service and labor. Quote the hardware correctly.
Commercial customers can see APD's standard trip and labor rates up front. Hardware and materials are priced by phone or written estimate because grade, manufacturer, finish, door preparation, availability and security requirements vary.
Published APD rates
Common labor-based work can be discussed using these rates when the scope is straightforward. An eligible bundled service price receives the percentage discount on the full bundle. If parts or hardware are itemized separately, only the eligible service/labor portion is discounted; trip/service fees and materials stay full price. Larger, multi-door, master-key and specialty-security work receives an estimate.
Materials & specialty hardware
APD confirms materials over the phone when practical or provides an actual written estimate before the work is approved.
Use the estimate as a starting point, then send APD the details. We will confirm what applies to your vehicle, home or business.
Call APD and tell us what is happening. We’ll ask the questions that matter and help you determine the right next step.
