About Locksmith Newmarket — In One Town Since 2000
A locksmith business that has fixed the same doors, in the same subdivisions, for a quarter of a century — and prices the work the way it would want to be priced.
Quick answer
Locksmith Newmarket has provided residential, commercial and automotive locksmith services to Newmarket and York Region since 2000. We are mobile, available 24 hours a day, licensed and insured, and we quote a firm price on the phone before dispatching a technician.
There is a particular kind of business that shows up when you search for a locksmith. It has a local-sounding name, a stock photo of a van, and a phone number that routes to a dispatcher three cities away who sells your job to whoever answers first. The technician who arrives has never seen the neighbourhood before, quotes a number nobody mentioned on the phone, and you never see them again.
We are the other thing. Same town since 2000. Same phone number. If we do a job badly, the person who has to fix it is us, and everyone involved knows it. That is not a slogan — it is just the structural difference between a local trade business and a lead-generation network, and it changes almost everything about how the work gets done.
How we price
We quote the complete price on the phone, for the job as described, before anyone gets in a vehicle. If we arrive and the situation is materially different from what was described — the lock is a high-security cylinder rather than a builder-grade knob, the door has already been damaged by someone else’s attempt — we tell you the new number and you decide, before any work starts.
That sounds obvious. It is not how much of this industry operates. The guide to choosing a locksmith goes through the tactics to watch for, and the price guide publishes our actual ranges so you can check us against them before you call.
- A firm number on the phone, for the job as described.
- No work starts until you have agreed the price.
- Written invoice that matches the quote.
- No cash-only pressure, no surprise line items.
- If the job turns out to be simpler than described, the price goes down, not up.
What we actually do
Homes
Rekeying, lock changes, deadbolt upgrades, patio and garage doors, smart locks, and lockouts at every hour. The bulk of our week.
Businesses
Storefront and aluminum hardware, closers, exit devices, master key systems, access control. Often scheduled overnight so trading is not disrupted.
Vehicles
Keys, fobs and transponders cut and programmed at the roadside, including when every key is lost.
Security work
The unglamorous upgrades that actually matter — frame reinforcement, proper strikes, high-security cylinders, safes.
Twenty-five years in one town
Working one area for this long produces a kind of knowledge that does not transfer. We know which builders fitted which hardware in which subdivisions, which means we often know what is behind a door before we see it. We know that the calls about latches that suddenly will not catch arrive in clusters, twice a year, when the humidity swings and the doors move. We know which streets have the century homes with mortise cases that nobody stocks parts for any more.
None of that makes us better people. It makes us faster and it makes our quotes more accurate, which is the part that shows up on your invoice.
The guarantee, stated plainly
Parts and labour are guaranteed. If a lock we installed fails, or a key we cut and programmed stops talking to your vehicle, we come back and deal with it. We are licensed and insured, and we will show ID at your door without being asked twice.
What we do not do is claim things we cannot back. There are no invented review counts on this site, no awards we did not win, and no “voted number one” badges. If you want to know whether we are any good, the fair test is to call, listen to how the quote is given, and judge from there.
Why Newmarket calls us first
Frequently asked questions
How long have you been in Newmarket?
Since 2000. The business has served Newmarket and the surrounding York Region communities continuously since then — residential, commercial and automotive locksmith work.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, we carry insurance and operate as a licensed business. Ontario does not run a compulsory province-wide locksmith trade licence, so any company claiming a “provincial locksmith licence number” is describing something that does not exist. What you can and should verify is business insurance, a marked vehicle, photo ID on arrival and a written invoice — ask for all four.
Do you do the work yourselves or subcontract it?
Our own technicians, in our own marked vehicles. If you call the number on this site, the person who arrives works for the business you called. That is the whole point of the difference between us and a national lead-generation network.
What areas do you cover?
Newmarket is the base and gets 20 to 30 minute response for most addresses. We also cover Aurora, East Gwillimbury, Georgina, Bradford West Gwillimbury, King, Whitchurch-Stouffville and Richmond Hill, with honest drive times published on the service area page.
Why should I not just call whoever is cheapest?
Sometimes you should — if the quote is firm, the company is identifiable and the invoice will match. The problem is that the cheapest advertised number is often not the price you end up paying. A $19 service call that becomes $340 on the doorstep is not cheap; it is a different pricing model wearing a disguise. Compare firm quotes, not advertised teasers.
What if I am not happy with the work?
Call us and say so. Parts and labour are guaranteed and we would rather come back and fix something than have it stand. A business that has been in one town for twenty-five years has a very direct interest in that outcome.
