Why Central Saanich calls Everest
Why Central Saanich Chooses Everest Locksmith
- A licence you can check before we arrive Our BC security worker licence number is #B7554. Verify it with the province while you are still on the phone to us.
- One price list for the whole city Brentwood Bay, Saanichton, Keating or a farm on the flats, the rate is the same and the number on the invoice matches the number quoted on the call.
- Non-destructive entry first Central Saanich has village houses, newer subdivisions, farmhouses and industrial units, and almost every lock in them picks. We drill only when a cylinder has already failed, and we say so before we start.
- One-year warranty, and we come back Full parts and labour coverage for 365 days. Brentwood Bay homes take damp air off the inlet and farm hardware takes everything; if something we fitted starts to stick, we return and correct it free.

Locksmith Services in Central Saanich
Everest Locksmith is a mobile, BC-licensed locksmith covering all of Central Saanich 24 hours a day. Emergency lockouts start at $89, rekeying at $25 per cylinder and car keys at $180, and the total is quoted on the phone before a technician leaves for your address.
Central Saanich mixes a village, a business park and some of the best farmland on the Island. A Brentwood Bay house, a Keating Cross Road trade unit, a Saanichton subdivision and a Martindale farm all call for different reasons and need different hardware. Pricing is identical across all of them; the approach is not.
Everything happens from the van, at your door. Keys are cut and cylinders re-pinned on site, so there is nothing to drop off and nothing to collect, and the overwhelming majority of Central Saanich calls are finished in one visit.

The Buildings and Locks We See in Central Saanich
The job changes with the property. Everest Locksmith works across Brentwood Bay, Saanichton, Keating Cross Road, Tanner Ridge, Island View, Martindale, Wallace Drive, Mount Newton and East Saanich Road, and each has a pattern we see over and over.
- Brentwood Bay — village homes and shops near the inlet, where damp air stiffens exterior locks
- Saanichton — family homes and newer subdivisions with garages and side gates
- Keating Cross Road — industrial and trade units that need master keying, padlocks and roll-up door locks
- Tanner Ridge and Mount Newton — hillside houses with longer drives and detached garages
- Martindale and Island View — working farms with barns, greenhouses and gates on many different keys
- Wallace Drive — acreages and farm stands where security has to work for staff and family alike
Business keys are worth naming, because Keating businesses lose more money to them than to break-ins. When former staff still hold keys, the only real fix is a rekey. A master key system means the next time someone leaves you rekey one cylinder, not the whole building.
Getting to your door
Getting to You Across Central Saanich
Everest Locksmith dispatches into Central Saanich around the clock and gives you a firm ETA on the call rather than a vague promise. The Pat Bay Highway makes the Peninsula quick to reach; finding the right farm or unit is usually the slow part. Five things worth knowing before you call.
- Tell us the property type first. A Brentwood Bay house, a Keating trade unit and a farm are three different jobs, and knowing which one means the right tools come with the van.
- Give us the unit or bay number for Keating businesses. Industrial buildings have many doors that look alike, and the unit number saves the technician walking the building.
- Tell us if a farm gate is locked. If the technician cannot get past it, we need to know before we arrive.
- Give us a landmark, not just an address. Farm addresses on Wallace Drive and Martindale are spread out and not always easy to spot.
- Have your ID ready, or tell us it is locked inside. Either is fine, but it is a conversation to have on the phone rather than on the doorstep.
Coverage runs across the whole Peninsula. Everest also works North Saanich, Sidney, Saanich and Victoria, so a lockout in Brentwood Bay and a rekey in Sidney is one call, not two companies.

What Our Customers Say
Recent reviews from across Greater Victoria
Locked myself out at about 11pm and someone was at my door quickly. He showed me his licence before he started, quoted $145 on the phone and that is exactly what I paid. Picked it open, no damage to the lock or the door at all.
We manage a 40-unit strata and Everest rekeyed all the common areas onto a restricted keyway. Worked evenings so residents were not disrupted, handed us an actual key register at the end, and invoiced our management company directly. Very easy to deal with.
Lost the only key to my car. Dealership wanted to tow it and quoted over $600 with a four day wait. Everest came to the parking lot, cut and programmed a new smart key on the spot for $260. Took about 40 minutes.
Had every exterior door rekeyed the day we took possession. Four doors all keyed to one key, which I did not know was even an option. Quoted per cylinder up front, arrived when they said, done in just over an hour.
