It’s 7:45 AM on a Tuesday near Silver Star Road, and a property manager is standing outside a rental unit with an Orange County deputy, a signed writ of possession, and a tenant who hasn’t returned the keys. The deadline is now. The deputy can’t wait around all morning, and the locks need to be changed before anyone leaves the property. This is the exact moment Pine Hills landlords and property managers call A Plus Locksmith & Keys at (407) 536-7717.
Eviction lockouts are time-sensitive, legally sensitive, and stressful for everyone involved. You can’t risk a delay, you can’t risk doing it wrong, and you definitely can’t risk leaving a property unsecured after the sheriff hands the unit back to you. Whether the rental is off Pine Hills Road, near Evans High School, in the apartment communities around Mercy Drive, or tucked into one of the quieter streets between Hiawassee and Powers Drive, our licensed mobile units cover all of 32808 around the clock. We typically reach Pine Hills addresses in 15 to 30 minutes, which matches the window most deputies are willing to wait. One call gets a real locksmith dispatched, no call center runaround.
Our Eviction Lockout Service in Pine Hills
An eviction lockout isn’t just a lock change. It’s a coordinated rekey or replacement that happens at the exact moment a sheriff or deputy executes a writ of possession, and the property has to be secured and re-keyed before anyone leaves the scene. A Plus Locksmith & Keys works directly with landlords, property managers, HOAs, and real estate investors throughout Pine Hills to handle this fast and correctly the first time.
Our eviction lockout service includes:
– Rekeying all exterior locks (front, back, side, garage entry doors)
– Full lock replacement when existing hardware is damaged or low-quality
– New key sets handed directly to the property owner or authorized representative
– Securing patio sliders, padlocked gates, mailbox locks, and storage units
– Repairing or replacing damaged strike plates and deadbolts
– Installing high-security locks if requested for high-turnover properties
– On-the-spot duplicate keys for property managers and maintenance staff
We help single-family rental owners in Pine Hills neighborhoods like Rolling Hills and Riverside Acres, apartment complex managers along North Pine Hills Road, duplex owners near Clarcona-Ocoee Road, and Section 8 landlords throughout 32808. We’ve worked alongside Orange County deputies dozens of times and understand the pace of a writ execution — fast, professional, and quiet.
Why does professional service matter for an eviction? Two reasons. First, liability. A botched lock change can leave you legally exposed if a former tenant accesses the property afterward. Second, timing. If the locksmith doesn’t show, the deputy leaves, and you have to restart the process. Our mobile units carry residential, commercial, and high-security hardware in stock, so we finish on the first visit. No “we have to come back tomorrow.”
How Our Eviction Lockout Service Works in Pine Hills
Here’s exactly what to expect when you call (407) 536-7717 for an eviction lockout.
Step 1: The Call. You or your attorney’s office calls us, ideally 24 to 48 hours before the scheduled writ execution. We confirm the property address in 32808, the scheduled sheriff arrival time, what type of property it is (house, condo, apartment, mobile home), and how many doors need service. If it’s an emergency same-day call, that’s fine too — we dispatch immediately.
Step 2: Dispatch and ETA. A licensed mobile locksmith is assigned to your job. From our typical staging points around Orlando, we reach most Pine Hills addresses in 15 to 30 minutes. During morning rush on Highway 441 or afternoon backups near Pine Hills Road and Silver Star, we’ll give you a realistic window so you can update the deputy.
Step 3: On-Site Verification. Our technician arrives in a marked vehicle, presents identification, and confirms the writ has been executed and the property has officially been returned to the landlord. We do not change locks until the deputy authorizes it — this protects you legally.
Step 4: Rekey or Replace. We rekey or replace every exterior lock on the property. For a standard single-family home in Pine Hills, this usually means two to four locks and takes 20 to 40 minutes. Apartments are often faster. We test every door, every key, and every deadbolt before we leave.
Step 5: Key Handoff and Documentation. You receive new keys (typically three to four copies, more on request) and a written invoice listing every lock serviced. This documentation matters if there’s any dispute later about who had access.
Step 6: Payment. We accept cards, cash, and electronic payment on-site. After-hours pricing is disclosed before we start work — no surprises, no inflated emergency fees once we arrive.
The entire process, start to finish, usually takes under an hour for a standard residential eviction in Pine Hills.
Why Choose A Plus Locksmith & Keys in Pine Hills
When you’re managing an eviction, you don’t have time to vet five different locksmiths. Here’s why Pine Hills property owners keep our number saved.
Licensed, insured, and bonded. We carry full Florida licensing, liability insurance, and bonding. If something goes wrong on your property during service, you’re covered. A lot of guys advertising cheap lockout work online aren’t insured — that’s your problem, not theirs, if a door gets damaged.
BBB A+ rated. Our Better Business Bureau A+ rating reflects years of clean service, honest pricing, and resolved customer concerns. We’re not a fly-by-night operation that disappears after one bad job.
24/7 mobile service, no exceptions. Evictions don’t always happen at 9 AM. Sometimes a writ gets executed late Friday afternoon, sometimes a property manager discovers a self-help situation Sunday morning. We answer the phone at 2 AM the same way we answer at 2 PM.
Real Pine Hills experience. We know the apartment communities off Mercy Drive. We know which gated complexes near Pine Hills Plaza have intercom systems we need to coordinate with. We know the older homes around Lake Lawne sometimes have non-standard door prep that requires special hardware. Local knowledge saves time.
Transparent after-hours pricing. Nights, weekends, and holidays carry a small premium, but you’ll know the number before we start. No locksmith showing up with a $19 ad and charging $400 at the end. That practice gives the whole industry a bad name, and we don’t do it.
Fast response. 15 to 30 minutes is our normal window for Pine Hills and 32808. Even during heavy Orlando rain or I-4 traffic snarls, we stage units close enough to Orange County’s western neighborhoods to keep response times tight.
One call, one tech, one bill. No subcontractors, no surprise add-ons.

Frequently Asked Questions About Eviction Lockout Service in Pine Hills
How much does an eviction lockout in Pine Hills cost?
Pricing depends on the number of doors, time of day, and whether you need rekeying or full lock replacement. A standard residential rekey on two to three exterior doors typically falls in a predictable range, with a small after-hours premium for nights, weekends, and holidays. We quote the full price before we start work — including any service call fee — so you can approve it upfront. Call (407) 536-7717 for an exact quote.
Do you coordinate directly with the Orange County Sheriff’s deputy?
Yes. We’ve worked alongside Orange County deputies on countless writs of possession in Pine Hills and across 32808. Our technicians know to wait for the deputy’s authorization before changing any locks, and we move quickly once cleared so the deputy isn’t held up. If you want, we can call you when we arrive on-site so you can connect us with the deputy directly.
How fast can you get to Pine Hills?
Typically 15 to 30 minutes from the time you call. We stage mobile units strategically around Orlando to keep response times short for Pine Hills, Ocoee, Lockhart, and the rest of west Orange County. During peak traffic on Pine Hills Road or weather delays, we’ll give you an honest updated ETA rather than an overpromised one.
Should I rekey or fully replace the locks after an eviction?
For most Pine Hills rentals, rekeying is faster and more affordable while still completely securing the property — the old keys no longer work. We recommend full replacement if the existing hardware is damaged, low-quality, or if you want to upgrade to higher-security locks for a high-turnover rental. Our technician will inspect on-site and give you a straight recommendation.
Can you handle multi-unit properties or apartment complexes?
Absolutely. We service apartment buildings, duplexes, fourplexes, and large complexes throughout Pine Hills, including communities along North Pine Hills Road and Mercy Drive. We can rekey multiple units in one visit, set up master key systems for property managers, and provide consistent hardware across all units. Volume pricing is available for property management companies — ask when you call.
