By A Plus Locksmith & Keys · Licensed Locksmith in Orlando, FL · Published June 13, 2026 · Reviewed by our master locksmith team

It’s 7:30 AM on a Tuesday, and a property manager off Wekiva Springs Road has a writ of possession in hand, a sheriff’s deputy pulling up to the rental property near Sabal Point, and a stranger’s locks still on the front door. The clock is now running. Florida law requires the locks be changed immediately after the deputy executes the writ — and that means a licensed locksmith needs to be standing on that porch, ready to work. This is the exact moment property owners, landlords, and management companies in Wekiwa Springs call A Plus Locksmith & Keys at (407) 536-7717. We’ve spent years handling eviction lockouts across Seminole County, and our mobile units stay positioned to reach the 32779 zip code in 15 to 30 minutes most of the day. Whether the property sits near Wekiwa Springs State Park, off Markham Woods Road, or tucked into a community like The Springs or Sweetwater Oaks, we show up licensed, insured, and ready to rekey or replace every exterior lock while the deputy is still on site.

Our Eviction Lockout Service in Wekiwa Springs

An eviction lockout isn’t a standard rekey. There’s a legal process attached, a deputy on a tight schedule, and a property owner who needs documented proof that the locks were changed the moment possession transferred. A Plus Locksmith & Keys handles the full scope so you’re not juggling phone calls during a stressful morning.

Our eviction lockout service in Wekiwa Springs includes:

Rekeying all exterior locks on the front door, back door, garage entry, and any side gates with deadbolts
Full lock replacement when existing hardware is damaged, outdated, or the property owner wants completely new keyways
New key sets delivered on-site — typically 3 to 5 keys handed directly to the landlord or property manager
Smart lock installation if the owner is converting to keypad or Bluetooth entry between tenants
Mailbox lock service for properties with locking cluster boxes
Documentation and invoicing for property management records

We work with individual landlords renting out a single home in Wekiva Cove, large management companies handling multi-unit properties, HOA-governed communities, and out-of-state owners who need someone trustworthy on the ground. Sheriff’s deputies in Seminole County operate on tight windows — they’re not going to wait 90 minutes for a locksmith to roll in from somewhere else. Our trucks carry residential and commercial hardware in stock, so we’re not stopping at a supply house mid-job. Schlage, Kwikset, Defiant, smart locks, high-security cylinders — it’s already in the van.

Professional service matters here because a botched eviction lockout creates real legal exposure. Locks changed before the writ is executed can be challenged. Keys handed to the wrong party can void the process. We’ve handled enough of these to know how the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office runs them, and we stay out of the deputy’s way while getting the work done fast.

How Our Eviction Lockout Service Works in Wekiwa Springs

The process is built around the deputy’s timeline, not ours. Here’s how a typical Wekiwa Springs eviction lockout runs from your first call to keys in your hand.

Step 1 — The Call. You dial (407) 536-7717. We ask for the property address (somewhere off SR-434, Wekiva Springs Road, Hunt Club Boulevard, or wherever the unit sits), the scheduled time the deputy will be on site, how many exterior doors, and whether you want a rekey or full lock replacement. Most calls take under three minutes.

Step 2 — Dispatch. A licensed mobile unit is assigned. If you’re calling for a same-day or next-morning eviction, we lock in the time slot and stage a truck near the 32779 area. Response time for emergency same-day calls usually runs 15 to 30 minutes once we’re dispatched.

Step 3 — Arrival. Our technician pulls up in a marked vehicle, in uniform, with ID. We coordinate with the deputy on site, confirm the writ has been executed, and wait for the green light to start work. No work begins until possession has legally transferred.

Step 4 — The Lockout Work. Rekeys typically take 10 to 15 minutes per lock. Full replacements run 15 to 25 minutes per door depending on hardware. Most Wekiwa Springs single-family rentals are done in 30 to 45 minutes total. Multi-door properties or commercial units take longer.

Step 5 — Keys and Documentation. New keys go directly to you or your authorized representative — never to the former tenant, never left in a lockbox without your written approval. We provide a detailed invoice listing every lock serviced, the work performed, and the time of completion. That paperwork goes straight into your property file.

We accept card, check, and digital payment on site. No hidden after-hours surcharge sprung on you at the end — pricing is quoted before we start.

Why Choose A Plus Locksmith & Keys in Wekiwa Springs

There are plenty of locksmith ads online. Most aren’t local. Many aren’t licensed. Some are call centers that subcontract to whoever answers. A Plus Locksmith & Keys is none of those.

Licensed, insured, and bonded. Florida requires locksmiths working on rental properties to carry proper credentials. We carry all of them, and we’ll show them to you on request. This matters during an eviction because property owners can be liable for damage caused by an uninsured contractor.

BBB A+ rated. We’ve built the rating one job at a time by showing up when we say we will and charging what we quoted. Property managers handling multiple Wekiwa Springs and Longwood-area properties tend to stick with us once they’ve used us, because the headache of finding a reliable locksmith goes away.

24/7 mobile units. Evictions don’t always run during business hours. Sometimes a deputy schedules a 7:00 AM execution. Sometimes an emergency rekey is needed Saturday night because a tenant changed their mind about leaving. We answer the phone at 2 AM the same way we answer it at 2 PM.

Response time in 32779. Wekiwa Springs traffic is generally manageable outside of school rush hours on Wekiva Springs Road and the I-4 backups near the SR-434 exit. We position trucks to reach most addresses in the area within 15 to 30 minutes. Properties closer to Apopka or near the Seminole County line may take slightly longer.

Local knowledge. We know the gated communities, we know which neighborhoods have HOA hardware standards, and we know which apartment complexes off Hunt Club Boulevard require specific lock types. That knowledge saves time on site.

Transparent pricing. You hear the price before we start. No surprise after-hours fee. No “the lock was harder than expected” upcharge.

Frequently Asked Questions About Eviction Lockout Service in Wekiwa Springs

How fast can you arrive for an eviction lockout in Wekiwa Springs?

For scheduled evictions, we arrive at the time the deputy has set — usually we’re parked nearby 10 minutes early. For emergency same-day calls in the 32779 area, our typical response is 15 to 30 minutes from dispatch. Traffic on Wekiva Springs Road during school hours or I-4 backups can occasionally add a few minutes, but we’ll give you an honest ETA when you call (407) 536-7717.

Do you rekey or replace the locks during an eviction?

Both options are available, and it’s the property owner’s choice. Rekeying is faster and less expensive — we change the pin configuration inside the existing lock so old keys no longer work. Replacement makes sense when hardware is damaged, outdated, or you want a different style or brand. Most Wekiwa Springs landlords go with a rekey unless the locks are visibly worn or the property is being upgraded between tenants.

Can you handle eviction lockouts after hours or on weekends?

Yes. A Plus Locksmith & Keys runs 24/7 mobile units across Seminole and Orange County. Sheriff’s deputies sometimes schedule evictions early in the morning or on non-standard days, and emergency rekeys often come up at night. We answer the phone any hour. Pricing is quoted upfront — there’s no surprise after-hours fee tacked on at the end of the job.

Do I need to be on site during the eviction lockout?

The property owner or their authorized representative should be present, or available by phone, to receive the new keys and sign the invoice. If you can’t be there in person, we can coordinate with your property manager, your attorney’s representative, or another authorized party. We will not hand keys to anyone who hasn’t been authorized in advance. Call us at (407) 536-7717 to set up the authorization before the appointment.

How much does an eviction lockout cost in Wekiwa Springs?

Pricing depends on how many doors are being serviced, whether you’re rekeying or replacing, and the type of hardware involved. A standard single-family home rekey with three to four exterior locks typically falls in a predictable range, and we quote the full price before any work starts. We don’t run bait-and-switch pricing. Call for a free phone estimate based on your specific property.
