Emergency Locksmith in Ajax
We carry out emergency locksmith for homes across Ajax, from Pickering Village, Southwood and Nottingham through to Applecroft. Same-day help for lockouts, break-ins, failed locks and vehicles — 7 days a week, 8 AM to 11 PM, across the GTA.
A wide spread of 1970s through 2010s subdivision housing, plus the older village core at Pickering Village. Knowing the housing stock matters: the right hardware for a 1960s side entrance in Pickering Village is not the right hardware for a post-2010 build, and fitting the wrong one wastes your money.
Ajax sits at the point where GTA coverage thins out, and that matters practically: a lot of Toronto-based operators either will not travel here or add a surcharge that appears only on arrival. Our pricing to Ajax is the same as our pricing to Scarborough. The housing mix means the work splits fairly evenly between 1970s stock needing genuine hardware replacement and newer homes needing rekeying and smart-lock retrofits.
We hold stock for the hardware that recurs in Ajax, which is often what decides whether a door is fixed today or boarded until a part arrives.
Where we work in Ajax
We cover the whole municipality for emergency locksmith, including Pickering Village, Southwood, Nottingham, Riverside, Duffins Bay and Applecroft — across the L1S, L1T and L1Z postal areas. The main corridors we work are Harwood Avenue, Westney Road, Bayly Street, Kingston Road and Salem Road.

- Vehicle lockouts, prioritised absolutely where a child or animal is inside
- Break-in repair and emergency securing
- Locks that have failed and will not secure the premises
- Broken keys in locks and ignitions
- Doors that will not close or latch, leaving a building open
- Failed access control leaving a door unsecured or staff locked out
- Safe lockouts where contents are needed urgently
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. We call you at 8 AM, before the day’s bookings, so you are first in the queue rather than one of the morning’s new calls.
How our pricing works
We tell you the price on the phone before anyone is dispatched. What we do not do is advertise a very low figure to get a technician to your door and then present a different number once you have waited in the cold.
That practice is widespread enough in this trade to be worth naming. The pattern is a headline price that applies to almost nothing, a technician who arrives and cites unforeseen complications, and a final bill several times the quote. If a company will not commit to a figure on the phone, that is the reason.

Emergency Locksmith in Ajax — questions
Do you cover all of Ajax?
Yes — the whole municipality, including Pickering Village, Southwood, Nottingham, Riverside and Duffins Bay, across the L1S, L1T and L1Z postal areas. We also cover the surrounding Durham Region area and the neighbouring municipalities, so a job that sits on a boundary is not a problem.
How quickly can you get to Ajax?
It depends on the time of day, where in Ajax you are, and what is already in progress. We give you a realistic window when you call rather than an optimistic one, and we would rather tell you ninety minutes and arrive in seventy. We take emergency calls 7 days a week, 8 AM to 11 PM — after that, leave your number and we call you at 8 AM.
How quickly can you get here?
It depends on where you are and what is already in progress. We give a realistic window when you call, and we would rather tell you ninety minutes and arrive in seventy than promise twenty and leave you watching the street. If you are outside in winter, or with a child, tell us and we will prioritise.
Are you open 24 hours?
No. We are open 7 days a week, 8 AM to 11 PM. Outside those hours, leave your number and we call you at 8 AM — first thing, before the day’s bookings. If you are unsafe, or a child or an animal is locked in a vehicle, call 911.
I am locked out after 11 PM. What should I do?
If you are unsafe or someone is locked in a car, call 911. Otherwise, try a neighbour or family member with a key, or your building superintendent. Leave your number on this page and we will call you at 8 AM, first in the queue.
