You just got home from a long shift, pulled into your driveway off Highbanks Road, and realized your old house keys went missing somewhere between the SunRail station and the Publix on Saxon Boulevard. Maybe they fell out at Gemini Springs Park while you were walking the dog. Maybe a previous tenant still has a copy. Either way, you’re standing on your porch in DeBary at 9 PM wondering who actually has access to your home — and that’s not a feeling any homeowner should sleep on.
That’s exactly when A Plus Locksmith & Keys gets the call. We’re a licensed, insured, and bonded mobile locksmith serving DeBary (32713) and the surrounding Volusia County area with same-day lock changes, rekeys, and smart lock upgrades. One quick call to (407) 536-7717 and we roll a fully stocked van to your address — usually within 25 to 40 minutes depending on where you are between Plantation Estates and Riviera Bella.
Whether the locks are 20 years old, the keys went missing, or you just moved into a new place off Fort Florida Road, changing your locks is the fastest way to take back control of who walks through your front door. Here’s what to expect when you book a lock change with us in DeBary.
Our Lock Change Service in DeBary
A lock change is exactly what it sounds like — we remove your existing deadbolts, knobs, or handlesets and install brand-new hardware keyed to a fresh set of keys that only you and your family hold. It’s different from a rekey, where we keep the existing lock body and just change the internal pins. Lock changes are the right call when your hardware is worn, damaged, outdated, or when you simply want an upgrade.
We help DeBary homeowners and renters in a wide range of situations:
– Just moved into a home or rental near Glen Abbey or Riviera Bella and don’t know how many copies of the old keys are floating around
– Recently went through a divorce, breakup, or roommate change and need every lock turned over
– Lost keys somewhere along Dirksen Drive or at the SunRail park-and-ride
– Break-in attempt or damaged locks that need to be replaced for insurance documentation
– Old, sticky, or corroded locks from Florida humidity that no longer turn smoothly
– Upgrading to higher-security Grade 1 deadbolts or smart locks with keypads and Wi-Fi
– Landlords turning over a property between tenants in the 32713 zip
– Childproofing — adding locks kids can’t easily open on storage rooms, garages, and pool gates
Professional installation matters more than people realize. A misaligned deadbolt or a strike plate with short screws can be kicked through in seconds — we’ve seen it after the fact. Our techs install with 3-inch screws into the door frame, check alignment on every latch, and test each lock with the new keys before we pack up. You get hardware that actually does its job, not just hardware that looks new.
How Our Lock Change Service Works in DeBary
We’ve kept the process simple because most people calling us are already having a stressful day.
Step 1: Call (407) 536-7717. A real person answers — not a call center, not a voicemail tree. Tell us your address in DeBary, what’s going on, and how many locks need changing. We’ll give you a transparent price quote before we dispatch anyone, so there are no surprises when we arrive.
Step 2: Dispatch. Our nearest mobile tech heads your way. From most parts of DeBary — whether you’re off Highbanks, near the Spring-to-Spring Trail, or out toward the St. Johns River — we’re typically on-site in 25 to 40 minutes. Late-night and weekend calls are the same flat dispatch; we don’t gouge for 2 AM service.
Step 3: On-site assessment. When we arrive, our tech walks the property with you, looks at every door you want serviced, and confirms what hardware you want installed. If you’re not sure, we bring options — standard residential deadbolts, Grade 1 commercial-grade locks, keypad locks, and smart locks from brands like Schlage, Kwikset, and Yale.
Step 4: Installation. We pull the old hardware, install the new locks, reinforce strike plates with longer screws where needed, and key everything to a single set of new keys (so you’re not juggling four keys for four doors). Most full-house lock changes take 45 to 90 minutes depending on how many doors.
Step 5: Test and walk-through. Every lock gets tested with you watching. We hand you the keys, walk you through how to use any smart features, and clean up the work area. Payment happens on-site — card, cash, or tap-to-pay.
That’s it. No upsells you didn’t ask for, no leaving a half-done job.
Why Choose A Plus Locksmith & Keys in DeBary
DeBary residents have options when it comes to locksmiths, so here’s what makes us different.
Licensed, insured, and bonded. Florida requires locksmiths to be licensed, and a lot of guys posting on Craigslist aren’t. We are — and we carry full liability insurance, so if something goes sideways during a job at your home, you’re protected. Ask any locksmith for their license number before you let them touch your door. We give ours upfront.
BBB A+ rated. We’ve earned and held an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau by doing the job right and standing behind our work. Our techs don’t work on commission, so nobody is pushing you toward hardware you don’t need.
24/7 mobile service. Lockouts and security emergencies don’t wait for business hours. Whether it’s a Sunday morning or a Tuesday at 3 AM, we answer the phone and dispatch. Mobile means we come to you — at your house, in your driveway, at the curb of your apartment complex off Highbanks.
Local knowledge of DeBary and Volusia County. We know the area. We know that traffic on I-4 near the DeBary exit backs up hard during rush hour, so we route around it. We know the neighborhoods, the gate codes most communities use, and the difference between hardware that holds up in Florida humidity and hardware that rusts out in 18 months.
No-damage entry techniques. Even when we’re doing a full lock change, we never drill or destroy a lock that doesn’t need to be drilled. Picking, bumping, and bypass tools come first. Drilling is a last resort, and on a lock change it’s almost never needed.
Honest, upfront pricing. You get a quote on the phone before we dispatch. The price we say is the price you pay. No “trip fee” surprise after the work is done.
We’ve served Orange County and the greater Orlando metro for years, and we’re proud to extend that same service standard into DeBary and the rest of Volusia.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lock Change Service in DeBary
How much does a lock change cost in DeBary?
Pricing depends on how many locks you need changed and what hardware you choose. A basic single deadbolt change with standard residential hardware typically runs less than a full smart lock install. We give a firm price on the phone before dispatching, including any service call fee. Most full-house lock changes for a 3-bedroom DeBary home land in a predictable range — call (407) 536-7717 for a same-day quote.
Should I rekey or change my locks?
If your existing locks are in good shape and you just want new keys (after a move-in, lost keys, or roommate change), rekeying is cheaper and faster. If the locks are old, damaged, low-quality, or you want an upgrade like a smart lock or higher-security deadbolt, a full change makes more sense. We’ll tell you honestly which one fits your situation when we look at the hardware.
How fast can you get to my home in DeBary?
Our typical response time across the 32713 zip is 25 to 40 minutes, depending on time of day and where you are. Calls near Highbanks Road or the Riviera Bella area are usually quicker; calls toward the river or more remote pockets may take a bit longer. We give you an honest ETA when you call and update you if anything changes.
Can you install smart locks like Schlage Encode or August?
Yes. We install all major smart lock brands — Schlage, Yale, Kwikset Halo, August, Level, and others. We’ll walk you through setup, Wi-Fi pairing, and app configuration before we leave. Smart locks are a great upgrade for DeBary families who want keyless entry for kids coming home from school or for managing short-term rental access.
Are you actually licensed and insured?
Yes — A Plus Locksmith & Keys is fully licensed in Florida, insured, and bonded, with an A+ rating from the BBB. We’ll provide license information on request. Hiring an unlicensed locksmith puts your home security and your wallet at risk, so it’s a smart question to ask anyone you call — us included.
