Bursky Locksmith – Boston’s 24/7 Locksmith Service

We strive to reach customers as quickly as possible. In most Boston neighborhoods, our locksmith can arrive in about 20 minutes or less after you call. Factors like traffic and weather can affect timing, but we know urgency is critical – we’ll give you an ETA and keep you updated. Our rapid response is a key reason Boston customers trust us in emergencies.

Yes – 24/7/365, we never close. Bursky Locksmith operates around the clock. Whether it’s a holiday, a weekend, 3 AM or 3 PM, we always have a certified locksmith on duty and ready to help. You can call us anytime, day or night, and we’ll respond immediately. Security emergencies can happen at any time, so we make ourselves available at all times.

Locksmith service costs can vary depending on the job (e.g., a simple lockout vs. installing new high-security locks). However, we keep our rates competitive and transparent. A standard house or car lockout service typically ranges from $75-$150 in Boston, while other services like lock rekeying or car key programming might be a bit more. We always provide an upfront quote before starting work, so you’ll know the price in advance. No hidden fees, ever.

Absolutely! Making replacement car keys is one of our specialties. Our automotive locksmiths have the equipment to cut new keys and program transponder chips or key fobs for most car makes and models. Even if you’ve lost all your keys, we can often generate a new one from code. We come to your vehicle and do everything on-site – no towing needed. It’s faster and cheaper than a dealership in most cases.

 No – our technicians are trained in non-destructive entry techniques. In the vast majority of lockouts, we can pick the lock or use specialized tools to open your door without any damage. We take care to treat your property like our own. Only in rare cases of high-security locks (or damaged locks) might drilling be necessary, and even then we would consult with you first. Our goal is to solve your problem without creating a new one.

Yes, you can have full confidence in our team. All of our locksmiths are properly licensed, bonded, and insured to work in Massachusetts. They also undergo background checks and extensive training. When a Bursky Locksmith technician arrives, you’ll know you’re dealing with a vetted professional who will solve your issue responsibly and ethically. Your property’s security is safe in our hands.

Rekeying versus replacing depends on your situation. Rekeying is a good option if you’ve lost a key or moved into a new home – we can alter the internal pins of your existing locks so old keys won’t work, and give you new keys, without installing all new hardware. It’s usually more affordable than full replacement. Lock replacement is wise if your current locks are very old, damaged, or low-quality. Our locksmith can assess your locks and recommend the best solution. Often, after a break-in or if you want a security upgrade (like a high-security deadbolt or smart lock), a full lock replacement is the better choice. We’re happy to advise based on what will keep you safest and what fits your budget.
