Emergency Locksmith in Scarborough
We carry out emergency locksmith for homes across Scarborough, from Agincourt, Malvern and Guildwood through to Bendale. Help for lockouts, break-ins, failed locks and vehicles — 7 days a week, 8 AM to 11 PM, across the GTA.
One of the largest concentrations of 1960s–80s bungalows, backsplits and sidesplits in Ontario, many with side and rear entrances added later, plus extensive post-war apartment towers. Knowing the housing stock matters: the right hardware for a 1960s side entrance in Agincourt is not the right hardware for a post-2010 build, and fitting the wrong one wastes your money.
The split-level and bungalow stock here is the reason Scarborough generates so much break-in repair work: side and rear doors added in the 1970s often sit in softwood jambs with a 1/2-inch strike screw, which a single kick defeats regardless of how good the deadbolt is. The fix that actually holds is a full-length security strike with 3-inch screws driven into the stud — hardware that costs very little and changes the outcome completely. Rear service doors on the Kennedy and Markham Road plazas take the same treatment.
When you call from Scarborough, tell us the nearest main intersection — Kennedy Road, for example — so the technician can plan the route.

Our hours — and what to do after 11 PM
We are open 7 days a week, 8 AM to 11 PM. We are not a 24-hour service, and we would rather you know that now than find out at 2 AM.
If you are unsafe, or a child or an animal is locked in a vehicle, call 911 — emergency services will get to you. If you are safe but locked out late at night, try a neighbour or family member with a key, or your building superintendent or management line.
Then leave your number on this page, and we call you when we open.
How our pricing works
We give you a price estimate on the phone. When the final price can only be set on site, the technician tells you the price before starting any work.
