Verified Washington locksmiths and security companies for lockouts, rekeying, commercial locks, safes, and access control - serving Georgetown, Capitol Hill, Dupont Circle, Arlington, Alexandria, Silver Spring and beyond.
Use a licensed local locksmith with a real address, not a call center that dispatches a sub and price-gouges on arrival. Get the price on the phone first.
The nation's capital is also the nation's highest-income metro, where rowhouses and colonials keep contractors working across two states and the District. When you compare locksmiths and security companies in Washington, ask every one of them the same three questions: are you licensed and insured for this exact work, who is actually showing up (your crew or a sub), and what does the warranty cover in writing.
Searching for locksmiths and security companies near me in Washington? Everyone ranked below serves Washington and the surrounding neighborhoods, including Georgetown, Capitol Hill, Dupont Circle, Arlington, Alexandria, Silver Spring. Check the address and service area on a listing before you call, because the closest one is not always the one a search engine puts first.
If this is an emergency, call rather than fill in a form. Being locked out of a house or a car is the case for calling instead of waiting for morning. Ask up front whether they are dispatching tonight and what the after-hours call-out fee is: 24/7 availability is not something a star rating can tell you.

Every company ranked on this page serves Washington and the surrounding area, including Georgetown, Capitol Hill, Dupont Circle, Arlington, Alexandria, Silver Spring. Open any listing for its address, phone number and service area, then call the two or three closest to you. Distance is worth checking yourself: the nearest locksmith is not automatically the best one, so this page ranks on rating and review volume first and leaves proximity to you.
After-hours availability is not part of a Google rating, so this directory cannot verify it for you in advance. Being locked out of a house or a car is the case for calling instead of waiting for morning. Call the top rated locksmiths and security companies on this page and ask two things before you agree to anything: are you dispatching tonight, and what is the after-hours call-out fee. A company that answers both plainly on the phone is usually the one that actually shows up.
