Locksmith in Ajax — 20–35 min on-site
Durham dispatch covers downtown Ajax, Pickering Village, Applecroft and Lakeside. Standard family lock work and multipoint gearbox repair.
Working locksmith in Ajax,
not a call-centre with a map.
Mobile locksmith service across Ajax runs out of the durham van, so the van is usually inside 20–35 min across ajax of a call. That's the difference between waiting at the door for two hours and being back inside before the coffee goes cold. Every truck carries the working stock a real Ajax job needs — Schlage and Weiser deadbolts, Kwikset SmartKey cylinders, Mul-T-Lock and Medeco high-security keyways, Adams Rite hookbolts for storefronts, Yale and Schlage Encode smart locks, and the closers and pivots most doors on this side of the GTA are hung on.
Most calls in Ajax land in one of three buckets. Residential — a snapped key in a front deadbolt in Downtown Ajax, Pickering Village, Applecroft, Lakeside, a rekey after a closing, a smart-lock swap on a new build. Commercial — an office rekey after a staff change, a storefront hookbolt seized on a Sunday morning, an Adams Rite latch that finally gave up. Automotive — keys locked in the trunk at a plaza, a fob that stopped talking to the ignition. One dispatcher, one van, one $29 flat service call across all of it — no per-item call-out fee stacked on top at the end.
Pricing in Ajax works the same way it works everywhere else on the site: the $29 service call is confirmed on the phone, the labour and parts are quoted before the tech opens a toolbox, and the number on the invoice matches the number you heard. Every job carries a warranty on labour and parts — if a cylinder we installed in Central Ajax, Southwood fails inside the warranty window, the same tech comes back and fixes it. Licensed in Ontario since 2013, fully insured, and every truck in the Ajax rotation is dispatched from a real address, not a call-centre in another province.

Ajax
locksmith FAQ.
How fast can a locksmith get to Ajax?
20–35 min across Ajax. That's from the durham van — the tech is already inside the service area when the call comes in.
How much does a locksmith cost in Ajax?
$29 flat service call to come out. Parts and labour are quoted on the phone before dispatch — the number you hear is the number on the invoice. No hidden after-hours fee, no per-item call-out charge tacked on at the door.
Do you rekey locks in Ajax or do we have to buy new ones?
Rekeying is the default. Most Weiser, Schlage and Kwikset deadbolts in Ajax can be re-pinned in 10–15 minutes to a fresh key — new hardware only goes on if the existing cylinder is worn out, tampered, or you're upgrading to a Mul-T-Lock or Medeco high-security keyway.
Are you licensed to work in Ajax?
Ontario-licensed since 2013, fully insured, and every technician on the Ajax rotation carries the provincial locksmith licence. Ask any tech for the number when they arrive — it's on the ID.
Can you open a car in Ajax without damaging it?
Yes. Non-destructive entry is the default on cars — most sedans, SUVs and pickups in Ajax open in 5–15 minutes with a wedge and long-reach tool, no scratched paint, no bent trim. Priority dispatch when there's a child or pet in the vehicle.
Do you cover Ajax 24 hours?
Yes. The durham van runs immediate dispatch across Ajax at any hour — lockouts, break-in re-secures and emergency board-ups included. Same $29 service call regardless of time of day.
