Locked Out

Locked Out LLC runs locksmith work out of Abilene, Texas. They cover emergency calls for cars, homes, and businesses along with safes, key duplication, rekeying, and lock work. The company sends technicians to the customer site and stays open around the clock for after-hours needs across the greater Abilene area and towns within a 100-mile radius such as Haskell, Brownwood, Sweetwater, and Clyde.

Reviewers describe calls for car lockouts with keys inside, house doors that shut with the lock engaged, jammed apartment knobs, and lost keys at night. James reached one apartment after 11:30 p.m. and opened the door fast. Clay handled several car and home lockouts, rekeyed an entire house in Brownwood so the doors worked better, and kept children busy during one job. Dani took many of the phone calls, arranged help when no local technician was free, and coordinated service for a remote location in Haskell. Other jobs included programming key remotes on a 2012 Silverado and unlocking bedroom doors before a trip.

Technicians usually arrive within 10 to 15 minutes after the call and finish most unlocks in a couple of minutes. Dispatch stays in touch by text and phone, gives clear timing and price details up front, and works with customers on longer drives. Service reaches places well outside Abilene while keeping the same response style, and the shop also cuts keys and handles remote programming on site.

The listed reviews all rate the company at five stars. Common points include fast arrival, technicians who stay friendly under pressure, and dispatch that answers early or late. Names that come up often are Clay for on-site work, James for night calls, and Dani for handling the phones and scheduling.

“Just wanted to share my experience today. I work from home and while on break I let my dogs outside not realizing the bottom lock was turned in lock position and door closed behind me!! Luckily I had my phone in my back pocket. So I searched Google went with first company with 5 stars. She answered right away took my information and said she would have someone right out. Few minutes later received call from technician stating he was on his way. I received follow up text from dispatch stating while she had no technicians available she was able to call another company for me. Wow! It was seamless and worked out great for me! She went the extra mile for me eventhough she had no one available! Recommend on fast, reliable, and reasonable service!!”
