Our Services

Lock Repair

Lock Rekeying
We recommend lock rekeying when you have lost your keys, moved into a new house, or don’t want your ex-partner or friends to have access to your home. Rekeying is quicker and more cost-effective, as we only change the internal components to make the current key ineffective.

Key Cutting and Key Duplication
No need to search ‘residential locksmith near me’. Call us today to get a duplicate or spare key for your house that works as smoothly as the original one. We use mechanical and computerized processes to cut a key that precisely matches the contour of the original key.
Besides mechanical keys, we also create duplicate keys for smart locks and high-security locks.

Lock Installation
Deadbolts, smart-locks, keyless entry locks, knob locks, mortise locks, or any other type of lock; just tell us what you need and we will install it.
Not sure what would be the best for your home? Our residential locksmiths will explain the pros, cons, maintenance needs, and pricing of all these options to help you choose wisely within your budget.

Keyless Entry System
Want to upgrade to a more convenient and safer locking mechanism? Contact us today to replace your old locks with keyless entry systems that work with codes, smartphones, and biometric data. We will evaluate your home’s needs and budget and set up the best system for you. We also provide ongoing maintenance and repair for these types of advanced entry systems.

House Lockouts
We are available 24/7 and provide immediate assistance for home lockout calls, reducing the time you spend outside at the middle of the night or during a cold spell.
Our team has extensive experience unlocking even the most complex home locks. Whether you have lost your key, left it inside, or broke it, we will get you inside first and then suggest the best approach to handle the situation. Expect upfront cost and hassle-free services from us.

Changing Door Locks
If your home still has traditional locks that can be broken in quickly, it’s time to replace them with robust options. At Pop-A-Lock New Orleans, we offer all types of locking systems from reputable brands. We use high-quality locks that provide both durability and convenience. Our residential locksmiths will recommend the best options for you and ensure a precise installation.

Bump Proof Locks
Get maximum protection against lock bumping. Contact us today to get high-security bump-proof locks installed at fair prices. We use best-in-class locks from renowned brands. These locks have levers or discs instead of traditional pin tumblers that can be easily unlocked using bump keys. Most of our bump-proof locks use patented technology that can’t be duplicated with authorization.
