Kingsland Locksmith is a mobile locksmith company, covering the Camden County area of Georgia. Each task gets done wherever you are – your driveway, the place where your car is stuck, or your front door before the business opens. The vans that we send out have everything needed to get the job done – the key blanks, cylinders, programming devices, and door hardware to get it done in one trip without any need for a return visit or the towing of any vehicle.
Our areas of operations include Kingsland, St Marys, Woodbine, and the vicinity of Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, along with all the surrounding Camden County streets. The coverage of local area may seem like a small detail but you have probably encountered the scenario where you called a locksmith only to find out that he was a dispatch center based hundreds of miles away. This is the usual business model of the majority of locksmith companies in this business: your call goes to a dispatch center, you are quoted a relatively low price over the phone, then you get an answer back and the one who is sent – usually a subcontractor from another city – gives you an entirely different price when he arrives.
We are not like that. A technician from your local area comes, does the job and completes it. We know the locations of the neighborhood gates, we are aware of the rush hours near the base and we know how to find your street even in the dark without having to call you for directions several times.
– replacement of car keys including the transponder and laser-cut keys, programming of key fobs and proximity keys, repair and replacement of ignition cylinders, car lockout and trunk lockout. Most makes and model years can be taken care of by our vans. If you lost the last key to your vehicle, we can create a new key right there on-site and delete the lost key from the system so that it won’t be able to start the car anymore.
– rekeying after moving to the house or losing your key ring or access changing. Changing and installing of locks on doors that were never provided with the proper locks. Installation of deadbolts, handlesets and smart locks with user code set up before we depart. Opening of the house without damaging the door. Coastal humidity takes its toll on the hardware in this area, we will let you know what locks will survive it and which will seize in two years.
– design, installation and expansion of the master key systems. Changing of commercial-grade locks after the personnel changes. Replacement of mortise locks in older buildings, making sure that the new lock matches the old pocket so that no new plate needs to be installed to hide the damaged area. Push bar and exit device installation and repair, which is both a life-safety issue and an inspection issue. Business lockout, work with file cabinets and safes.
You are quoted the price before we start working and the price that you agreed to is the price that you pay when the job is completed. No additional selling during the process. No surprise price itemization when the job is completed. If it turns out that the job that needs to be done is different from what you discussed over the phone, we will let you know the differences and what they cost before starting any further work.
It makes the most difference when you are the most unlikely to resist. At 2 o’clock in the morning, standing at your front door, you have neither the leverage nor the possibility to compare the prices. It is precisely at such a moment that the pricing policy of a locksmith becomes apparent. We give the same quotation at 2 AM and at 2 PM.
All of our technicians are insured and background checked. You let a stranger work with the locks that protect your property – you have the right to know something about this stranger. In addition, we expect our technicians to leave the location clean, explain everything that was done and provide you with a working key before leaving.
The situation in Camden County is constantly changing. People move to and from Kings Bay on their own schedule – this means constant work with rekeying. New constructions arrive with the builder locks keyed the same in whole streets, keys that were touched by everyone on the construction site. Downtown buildings are still equipped with the mortise hardware that nobody can find anymore. Businesses that are located on Highway 40 grow to the extent of key controlling becoming its problem.
The variety of tasks that we do is constantly growing. The thing that doesn’t change is our punctuality, quotation prior to the start and completion of the job in one trip.
