For the other services provided by a locksmith there are various ways these services can be charged as well. Things that are factored into the charge of a service are things like vehicle types,(years, makes, models), types of locks and doors, and of course the service itself. You should always keep in mind that we understand when calling in for a service the customer wants to know what they are going to be charged before having someone come out. If possible a price will be given right on the phone at the time of original call. Unfortunately, in most cases that is not always possible. There are so many factors involved in performing locksmith services a technician needs to evaluate the job before an accurate price can be given.
