Locked Out of Your Business?
A business lockout costs money by the minute: staff waiting in the parking lot, customers turned away, deliveries that can’t be signed for. Prime Locksmith Services opens storefronts, offices, warehouses and suites across St. Louis, and works on the commercial hardware that a residential locksmith often can’t: mortise locks, aluminum storefront doors, exit devices and high-security cylinders.
Once you are back inside, we can rekey the locks if a key walked out with a former employee, replace damaged hardware, or set up a master key system so it doesn’t happen again.
For commercial lockout service in St. Louis or any job for a commercial locksmith in St. Louis, call (314) 745-4590.
How We Handle a Business Lockout
Fast, professional and documented.
Call with the details
Business address, the door and lock type, and whether keys are lost or locked inside.
Price upfront
We quote on the phone, priced per lock cylinder.
Verify authorization
Photo ID plus proof you can authorize entry: a lease, business license, or a call to the owner or property manager.
Open the door
Non-destructive entry wherever possible, on storefront, mortise and standard commercial locks.
Secure it again
Rekey, replace or repair on the same visit, with an itemized receipt for your records.
Former employee kept a key?
If a lockout follows an employee leaving, or keys are unaccounted for, rekey the affected locks right away. With a master key system you can rekey one door without changing keys for the whole building. See lock rekeying.
Commercial Lockout Prices
Prime Locksmith Services’ own price ranges from our pricing page. Commercial work is priced per lock cylinder.
| Service | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Business lockout (per cylinder) | $75 to $600 |
| Commercial re-key (per cylinder) | $75 to $300 |
| Commercial lock change, installed (per cylinder) | $150 to $600 |
| Storage unit unlock | $100 to $450 |
| Commercial mailbox unlock or replacement | $150 to $450 |
| High-security locks | $250 to $1,099 |
What moves the price: the hardware (storefront and high-security cylinders take longer), the number of doors, and whether you want locks rekeyed or replaced afterwards.
