Fast Locksmith Richmond is a mobile locksmith operation built around this city — serving real Richmond neighbourhoods every day, from Steveston heritage homes to City Centre Canada Line condos to Sea Island commercial corridors. One number, licensed technicians, straight answers on price before any work starts.
We keep it simple: licensed mobile technicians, one dispatch line, the same dependable service from Brighouse to Broadmoor to Ironwood.
We don't have a shopfront you walk into. We have trucks on the road — across Richmond's mix of waterfront neighbourhoods, dense strata towers near the Canada Line, established residential streets, and light industrial zones on the south arm. That's the model. Someone calls, we dispatch, we arrive. Most of the time, that's under half an hour anywhere in Richmond.
Richmond is a city of renters moving between City Centre highrise suites, new homeowners rekeying after possession on Broadmoor properties, businesses managing staff turnover at Ironwood commercial parks, and people standing in a parkade at Aberdeen Centre locked out of their car. We've handled all of it. None of it surprises us.
Every technician we send is licensed and insured to work in BC. We carry the right credentials to open, rekey, or replace locks on residential, commercial, and automotive targets without voiding manufacturer warranties. We don't subcontract to whoever is available — the person who picks up the phone dispatches someone who works for us.
Pricing is given on the call, before dispatch, based on the job type and the time of day. What we quote is what you pay. If something changes once we're on-site — a seized lock, a broken wafer, a door that's more damaged than it looked — we tell you before we do anything extra.
Residential lockouts and rekeying make up most of our volume across Richmond's dense rental stock — everything from older Steveston character suites and Seafair townhomes to new City Centre and Brighouse strata towers. We're equally set up for automotive work, commercial jobs like master key systems for Terra Nova office spaces and Sea Island facilities, safe openings, and door-hardware repairs.

For an emergency — lockout, break-in, all keys lost — call 604-332-2291 directly. For non-emergency work like a scheduled rekey after a move, a smart lock installation, or a commercial master key consultation, you can book a time online and we'll confirm within the hour during business hours. Nights and weekends are dispatch-only — call, don't wait.
Whether it's a 3 a.m. lockout at a City Centre condo or a scheduled smart lock install in Steveston, the process is the same.
Phone us for emergencies — we pick up 24/7. For planned work, book a time online and we'll confirm within the hour. Either way, we ask a few questions to understand the job and give you an upfront price estimate before anyone gets in the truck.
A licensed technician comes to your location — your home, your car, your business, wherever you're standing in Richmond. For most calls across the city we aim for under 30 minutes. We tell you the real estimate on the call.
We do the work, confirm the final cost against the quote (and explain any change if there is one), and you pay by card or cash. No invoice chasing, no follow-up calls needed. If there's a warranty concern later, call the same number — one point of contact, always.
We serve Richmond's full grid — Steveston to City Centre, Broadmoor to Ironwood, Sea Island to Hamilton.
