What a Locksmith Costs in North Saanich

Everest Locksmith quotes the total on the phone before dispatching, with travel inside North Saanich already included.

Why North Saanich calls Everest
Why North 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 Deep Cove, Dean Park, Ardmore or the ferry terminal, the rate is the same and the number on the invoice matches the number quoted on the call.
- Non-destructive entry first North Saanich is mostly larger homes on big lots with good-quality hardware, and almost all of it 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. Waterfront homes from Deep Cove to Curteis Point take salt air all year; if something we fitted starts to bind, we return and correct it free.
Typical North Saanich jobs
Typical Security Work Across North Saanich
From car keys lost at the airport or ferry to Deep Cove
waterfront homes and Dean Park upgrades, three jobs we see again and again.
Car Key Cut at the Lot
Back from a trip and the only car key is lost somewhere between the plane and the parking lot. We come to the car, then cut and program a new key or fob on site so there is no tow and no taxi home.
Mobile Programming
Waterfront Home Security
Larger waterfront homes with many doors, glass and a boathouse. High-security cylinders on one restricted key, with patio and gate hardware that stands up to salt air.
Restricted Keyway
Family Home Smart Lock Retrofit
A keypad or app-controlled deadbolt on the main door, keyed backup, and codes for family, dog walkers and house sitters while the owners are away.

Locksmith Services in North Saanich
Everest Locksmith is a mobile, BC-licensed locksmith covering all of North 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.
North Saanich is quiet, spread out and close to both the airport and the ferry, and that shapes the calls. Lost car keys at the end of a trip, larger homes with many doors, waterfront properties fighting salt air and homes left empty while the owners travel all need a different approach. 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 North Saanich calls are finished in one visit.

The Buildings and Locks We See in North Saanich
The job changes with the property. Everest Locksmith works across Deep Cove, Dean Park, Ardmore, Curteis Point, Canoe Cove, Lands End Road, McTavish Road, Wain Road, Swartz Bay and the airport area, and each has a pattern we see over and over.
- Deep Cove and Curteis Point — waterfront homes with salt-worn hardware, glass doors and boathouses
- Dean Park — hillside family homes with garages and owners upgrading to smart locks
- Ardmore and Lands End Road — larger acreage homes with gates and detached outbuildings
- Canoe Cove and Swartz Bay — marinas, ferry traffic and cars locked or keys lost at the terminal
- Airport area and McTavish Road — travellers locked out of cars, plus hangars and business units near YYJ
- Wain Road and farm properties — hobby farms with barns, gates and padlocks on different keys
Empty homes are worth naming, because North Saanich owners travel more than most. A house left for weeks needs locks that cannot be bumped or copied, and a way to let a house sitter in without leaving a key in the garden. A keypad deadbolt and restricted cylinders solve both.
Getting to your door
Getting to You Across North Saanich
Everest Locksmith dispatches into North Saanich around the clock and gives you a firm ETA on the call rather than a vague promise. The Pat Bay Highway makes the drive quick; ferry traffic and finding the right driveway are usually what slow us down. Five things worth knowing before you call.
- Tell us where the car or house is. A Deep Cove home, a car in the airport lot and a car in the ferry lineup are three different arrival problems.
- If you are at the ferry terminal or airport, tell us which lot. Long-term and short-term parking are in different places, and the lot and row number save real time.
- Tell us the make, model and year for a car key. That tells us which key and programming equipment to bring.
- Give us a landmark, not just an address. Some North Saanich homes sit well back from the road at the end of shared drives.
- 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 Sidney, Central Saanich, Salt Spring Island and Saanich, so a car key at the airport 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.
