02 /What moves the price
What affects the cost of a locksmith?
Two jobs with the same name can cost very different amounts. These are the factors that move a price within its range.
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Lock or key type | A standard knob lock is quicker to open or rekey than a high-security cylinder. A push-to-start fob costs far more than a metal car key. |
| Number of locks | Rekeying and keyed-alike work is priced per cylinder, so a whole house or building costs more in total but less per lock. |
| Parts and hardware | A new deadbolt, smart lock or cylinder adds the cost of the hardware and its grade. |
| Time of day | Visits near the edges of service hours, or Sunday appointments, can be priced differently. |
| Distance | Locations farther from Fall River, such as parts of New Bedford, Westport or Tiverton, can affect the service call. |
| Door and vehicle condition | Old or damaged doors may need extra fitting. Some vehicles need special tools or dealer-level access. |

05 /Compare your options
Is a locksmith cheaper than the alternatives?
Sometimes a locksmith is the cheapest option, sometimes not. Here is an honest comparison for the most common decisions.
| Decision | Locksmith | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Lost car key, no spare | Comes to the car; cut and programmed on site for many vehicles, an estimated $150–$400+. | Dealer: often needs the car brought in, which can mean a tow. Some newer models can only be keyed by the dealer. |
| Copy of a standard house key | Accurate cut, and keys for older or uncommon locks. | Hardware store or kiosk: usually cheapest for common keys. Cannot copy restricted high-security keys. |
| New keys after moving in | Rekey existing locks, an estimated $55–$145 per lock per lock. | Buy and install new locks yourself: hardware cost plus your time; worth it only if you want new hardware anyway. |
| Locked out of the car | Car lockout, an estimated $75–$200. | Roadside plan or connected-car app: may cost less or nothing if your plan includes it. |
| Locked out of a rental | House lockout, an estimated $85–$220. | Landlord or property manager with a spare key: often free, if you can reach them. |

06 /Why ranges, not fixed prices
Why does this page show ranges instead of exact prices?
Every lock, door and vehicle is a little different, and a fixed price quoted before anyone sees the job is how many locksmith overcharges begin: a low number on the phone, then extra charges at the door. A range with the factors that move it is more honest and more useful.
