Locksmith services throughout Northgate, CO 80921
Northgate is one of the established residential areas in northern Colorado Springs, known for its quiet neighborhoods, mature landscaping, and strong sense of community. Located north of Woodmen Road and stretching up toward the Air Force Academy area, Northgate offers a mix of single-family homes, townhomes, and apartments that have been home to families for decades.
We’re familiar with Northgate’s residential character and the housing in the area. Many homes here were built in the 1980s and 1990s, which means many homeowners are dealing with locks that have been in place for twenty, thirty, or even forty years. If you’re still using your original locks, they’re probably ready for replacement or upgrading.
We serve homeowners throughout Northgate including neighborhoods along Voyager Parkway, Northgate Boulevard, and the surrounding residential streets, as well as the townhome communities and apartment complexes throughout the 80921 area. We understand the needs of established homeowners and we’re here to help you maintain and improve your home’s security.
Time to replace those original locks?
Many Northgate homes were built in the 1980s and 1990s, and if you’re still using the original locks that came with your house, they’re probably showing their age. Keys don’t turn as smoothly as they used to. Deadbolts stick or require force to extend. The hardware looks dated and worn. You have to jiggle the key or lift the door handle just right to get things to work. These are all signs that your locks are wearing out after decades of daily use.
Lock mechanisms have internal components like springs, pins, and cylinders that wear down over years of operation. The keyway gets worn from thousands of key insertions. Screws work loose. Parts that used to move smoothly start to bind and stick. Eventually, locks that have been working adequately for decades start to fail, often at the most inconvenient times.
We replace aging locks throughout Northgate neighborhoods every week. Homeowners who’ve been in their homes since the 80s or 90s are finally upgrading those original builder-grade locks to modern hardware that works smoothly and provides better security than the old locks ever did.
Upgrading to new Schlage or Kwikset deadbolts gives you immediate benefits. The locks turn smoothly without any resistance. The deadbolts extend and retract easily with no sticking. The hardware looks modern and feels solid instead of loose and worn. And modern locks provide significantly better security than basic locks from three or four decades ago, with features like hardened steel bolts, pick-resistant pins, and reinforced strike plates.
Standard deadbolt replacement runs $90-180 per door depending on the brand and features you choose. Most Northgate homes have three to four exterior doors, so a complete upgrade typically runs $300-700. You’ll immediately notice the difference in how smoothly your new locks operate compared to the 30-year-old hardware they’re replacing.
If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your home’s security, or you’re just tired of fighting with sticky old locks every time you come and go, now’s the time to do it. New locks installed properly will last another 15-20 years, which means you’re probably only going to do this once or maybe twice more as a homeowner. It’s worth doing it right with quality hardware and professional installation. Learn more about our lock replacement services throughout Colorado Springs.
Smart lock upgrades for Northgate families
If you’ve got teenage kids who constantly lose their house keys or forget them at school, smart locks with keypad entry might change your life. No more emergency calls at work because someone’s locked out. No more hiding spare keys under doormats or in fake rocks. No more making copies for every kid and hoping they don’t lose them. Everyone gets their own access code, and you can change codes instantly if needed.
Smart locks also give you peace of mind when you’re away from home. You can see on your phone exactly when your kids got home from school. You can unlock the door remotely if a package is being delivered and you want the driver to leave it inside. You can create temporary codes for dog walkers, house sitters, or contractors without giving them permanent keys.
We install smart locks throughout Northgate neighborhoods for families who are tired of the traditional key hassle. The most popular options are Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, and Yale Assure. All of these brands offer keypad entry, smartphone connectivity, and the ability to create and manage multiple user codes. Some models also integrate with Alexa or Google Home for voice control.
Smart lock installation runs $250-450 depending on the brand and features you choose. We’ll help you pick a system that makes sense for your needs, install it properly, set it up on your phone, program your initial access codes, and show you how to use all the features. The whole process takes about an hour, and most families tell us it’s one of the best home upgrades they’ve made for everyday convenience.
If you’re on the fence about whether a smart lock makes sense for you, think about how often you’ve dealt with lost keys, lockouts, or the hassle of making and distributing spare keys over the years you’ve lived in your Northgate home. Smart locks eliminate all of those problems permanently.
Residential locksmith services for Northgate homeowners
Beyond lock replacement and smart lock installation, we provide complete residential locksmith services throughout Northgate. Whether you need help with a lockout, want to rekey your locks, or have any other lock-related need, we’ve got you covered.
Home lockouts in Northgate
Getting locked out happens to everyone eventually. You step outside to get something from your car and the door closes behind you with your keys inside. Or you lose your keys somewhere between the store and home. Whatever the situation, you’re standing outside and you can’t get in.
We handle home lockouts throughout Northgate regularly. Call 719-419-9400 and we’ll get someone on the way to you, usually arriving within 15-30 minutes. We’ll get you back inside without damaging your door or lock. Home lockouts typically run $80-150 depending on the type of lock. For emergency lockout help, check our house lockout services page.
Rekeying locks in Northgate
If you’ve lost keys, had a roommate move out, or just want to make sure old keys no longer work, rekeying is usually your best option. Rekeying changes the internal pins so old keys won’t work, and you get a new set of keys. The lock hardware stays the same, which makes it faster and more affordable than replacement.
Rekeying typically runs $80-150 for a whole house depending on how many locks you have. If your locks are in good working condition and you just need different keys, rekeying is perfect. If your locks are old and wearing out, then replacement makes more sense and gives you completely new hardware.
Additional residential services
We also handle garage door locks, sliding door locks, mailbox locks, gate locks, safe opening, and broken key extraction. Whatever lock-related service you need for your Northgate home, we can help. For spare keys, visit our key duplication services page.
Commercial locksmith services for Northgate businesses
If you run a business in or near Northgate, whether it’s a small office, a shop, or any other commercial property, we provide complete commercial locksmith services to keep your business secure and your access properly managed.
Rekeying after employee changes
When employees leave, especially if they didn’t give proper notice or left on bad terms, you need to make sure their keys no longer work. We handle commercial rekeying throughout the Northgate area, and we can usually schedule service the same day you call. Standard commercial rekeying runs $120-300 depending on how many doors and what type of hardware you’re working with.
If your locks are old or you want to upgrade to better commercial-grade hardware, we can do complete lock replacement for $120-250 per door. Commercial locks handle more daily use than residential locks, so investing in quality hardware makes sense for business properties.
Master key systems and access control
If you’re managing multiple doors and multiple employees, ask us about master key systems. These systems let you give each employee a key that only opens the doors they need access to, while you keep a master key that opens everything. When someone leaves, you only rekey the specific locks they had access to.
For businesses that want to eliminate physical keys entirely, we also install keypad and keycard access control systems. Employees get codes or cards instead of keys, and you can add or remove access digitally. No more rekeying, no more worrying about lost keys or unauthorized copies. Visit our commercial locksmith services page for more business security options.
Automotive locksmith services in Northgate
Car lockouts and lost keys are incredibly frustrating, especially when you’re at home or nearby and just want to get where you’re going. Our mobile automotive locksmiths come to you anywhere in Northgate, whether you’re at home, in a parking lot, or anywhere else in the area.
Car lockouts in Northgate
Locked your keys in your car in your own driveway? It happens more often than you’d think. You’re unloading groceries, you set your keys down inside the car to grab bags, and the door closes. Or you’re getting out and the keys fall between the seats without you noticing. Now your car is locked and your keys are inside.
Call us immediately at 719-419-9400. We’ll dispatch a mobile locksmith to your Northgate location, usually arriving within 20-30 minutes. We’ll get you back into your car quickly and without damaging your locks or windows. Car lockouts typically run $65-120 depending on your vehicle’s make and model. For immediate vehicle lockout help, visit our car lockout services page.
Lost car keys and key replacement
If you’ve lost your car keys completely, we can create new keys for you on-site. Our mobile units carry key cutting and programming equipment for most vehicle makes and models. We can cut a new key blade, program the transponder chip if your car has an immobilizer, and have you back on the road, usually within 45 minutes of arriving.
Key replacement and programming typically runs $180-350 depending on your vehicle’s year, make, and model. That’s usually significantly less than what a dealership would charge, and we come to you so there’s no need for a tow truck.
Spare keys and other automotive services
If you only have one key to your car, get a spare made before you lose it. Emergency key replacement is always more expensive and stressful than getting a spare made preventively. Spare keys run $60-110 for basic keys or $120-200 for transponder keys with programming.
We also handle ignition repair, broken key extraction from locks or ignitions, and key fob programming. Whatever automotive locksmith service you need in Northgate, we can help.
Emergency locksmith services in Northgate
Emergencies don’t wait for convenient times. Whether you’re locked out of your home, vehicle, or business in Northgate, we’re available seven days a week from 7 AM to 11 PM for emergency locksmith service.
We’re honest about the fact that we’re not 24/7. If you’re locked out at 3 AM, we won’t be able to help until we open at 7 AM. But during our operating hours, we treat every emergency call seriously. Whether it’s a lockout, a broken lock leaving your property unsecured, or urgent rekeying after lost keys, we’ll dispatch a mobile technician to your Northgate location as quickly as possible.
Emergency services typically run $90-250 depending on the complexity of the situation. A straightforward lockout will be on the lower end. More complex situations requiring lock replacement or extensive repair will cost more, but we’ll always give you a price quote before we start work. For urgent needs, visit our emergency locksmith services page.

What Northgate customers are saying
Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you get to me in Northgate?
Our typical response time to Northgate is 15-30 minutes depending on exactly where you are in the 80921 area and current traffic conditions. We’ll give you an accurate estimated arrival time when you call.
My locks are 25 years old. Should I replace them or just rekey them?
At that age, replacement is probably your best option. Locks that old have experienced significant wear, and even if they’re still working, they’re not working as well as they should. New locks will operate much more smoothly, provide better security, and come with a warranty. Replacement costs more than rekeying upfront, but you’re getting completely new hardware that will last another 15-20 years.
Do smart locks work well, or are they just a gimmick?
Smart locks work very well and they’re genuinely useful for families. The main benefits are eliminating lost key problems, being able to give people temporary access without physical keys, and being able to monitor when people come and go. They do require battery changes about once a year, and you need decent Wi-Fi or Bluetooth signal at your door. If those aren’t deal-breakers for you, they’re absolutely worth it.
Are you available on weekends?
Yes, we’re open seven days a week from 7 AM to 11 PM including Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. If you need locksmith service in Northgate on a weekend, we’re available.
What other areas do you serve besides Northgate?
We serve all of Colorado Springs and surrounding communities including Briargate, Manitou Springs, Fort Carson, and other areas throughout the region. But we know Northgate well and respond here regularly for both residential and commercial customers.
Do you offer any warranty on your work?
Yes, we provide a one-year warranty on all parts and labor. If anything about our installation or service isn’t working correctly, we’ll come back and fix it at no charge. That’s our commitment to standing behind our work.
Can you come out today if I call this morning?
In most cases, yes. We often have same-day availability depending on our schedule. Call us in the morning and there’s a good chance we can get to you that afternoon or evening.
