Pay nothing until you approve it.

What a locksmith website has to do
-
Put the phone number first for lockouts
Someone standing outside at night is not reading service pages. The number sits at the top of every screen, the first choice on the page is "locked out right now", and it leads to a call, not a form. Everything else on the site can wait.
-
Give planned work a price list and a form
Rekeying after a move, a sticking deadbolt, a keypad for the back door: these customers compare prices and want to pick a time. A service list with starting prices and a request form that asks which lock and which day earns that job without a round of phone tag.
-
Prove you are a real local business
The trade has a reputation problem: listings with no address that dispatch whoever is nearest and quote one price on the phone and another at the door. A named owner, a real service area, how you verify a customer's right to enter and the prices you publish separate you from that.
The pages we build for a locksmith business
Your brief decides the final list. These are the pages most locksmiths need, and the job each one does.
| Page | Why it is there |
|---|---|
| Home | Two doors in the first screen: locked out now, call this number; planning a change, start here. The service area is visible without scrolling. |
| Lockouts | Home, car and business lockouts, how fast you respond, what you verify at the door and the price range to expect. |
| Rekey and lock changes | Rekeying after a move or a lost key, lock replacement and master key systems if you do them, with starting prices. |
| Repairs and hardware | Sticking deadbolts, misaligned strikes, broken handles, and the keypads and smart locks you install. |
| Automotive | Car keys, fobs and ignition work, if you do it, with the makes you can cut and program. |
| Commercial | Storefronts, offices, panic hardware and access control, and how you work around business hours. |
| How a visit works | From the call to the open door: confirming the window and price range, verifying identity, choosing the least destructive entry. |
| Service area and about | The towns you cover, a named owner, your license number if your state issues one, and photos of the van and the people in it. |

-
Which door brought you here
The first screen asks the visitor to pick: urgent or planned. The urgent path becomes a call button with a response window; the planned path opens a service list and a request form. Nobody reads the wrong half of the site.
-
A service list with a starting price on each row
Lockout, rekey, hardware repair and keypad setup each open to a short description and a starting price, with a note on what changes the final quote. It is the opposite of the mystery menu that gives the trade its reputation.
-
From call to open, step by step
A four-step strip explains what happens before the van arrives: confirm the window and range, verify identity, choose the least invasive entry. It also tells the customer to have ID or proof of residence ready.

What to have ready for your brief
The brief takes about 3 minutes. Send what you have now; photos, documents and anything else on this list can follow by email.
- The number for lockouts and the hours you answer it, including nights and weekends if you do
- Your typical response window for a lockout, stated as you can honor it
- Starting prices for a lockout, a rekey per cylinder and a keypad install, or how you quote if you keep prices off the page
- The services you offer: residential, automotive, commercial, safes, access control
- Your state locksmith license number, if your state licenses locksmiths, and your insurance if you carry it
- How you verify identity or permission before opening or changing a lock
- The towns and neighborhoods you cover
- Photos of your van, your shop if you have one, and the people who answer the door
What customers check before they call
- A real service area with real towns, not "serving the whole metro", because customers have learned that a vague area means a call center
- Starting prices or a stated range for lockouts, so the quote on the phone and the number at the door match
- Your identity-verification step explained, which reassures the homeowner and warns off the caller with no right to the door
- A license number where your state issues one, and insurance stated if you carry it
- A named owner and photos of the actual van and technicians, since a marked vehicle at the curb is what the customer is watching for

Prefer to build it yourself?
Building your own locksmith website works if you have the evenings for it. These five steps cover what the site needs on any website builder.
-
Pick a builder that lets you put a tap-to-call number and a two-choice first screen on the home page.
-
Write a lockout page with your response window and price range, and a separate page for rekeys, repairs and keypads with starting prices.
-
Add a how-it-works section that explains the identity check before you open or change a lock.
-
List your service area in text, your license number if your state issues one, and real photos of your van and team.
-
Link the site from your Google Business Profile, then call your own number from the page to check that tap-to-call works.

Questions locksmiths ask
Something else on your mind? Email hello@freewebguy.com. We reply within one business day.
How much does a locksmith website cost?
A locksmith website from FreeWebGuy is $0 to build and $15 a month for hosting once you approve it, so the first year is $180 plus a domain if you need one. No setup fee, no contract. Lockout, service and service-area pages are all part of the build.
Should a locksmith website show prices?
Yes, at least as starting prices or a range. A quote that changes at the door is the complaint customers associate with this trade. Publish a lockout range and a per-cylinder rekey price, with the things that change the final number, and that fear is gone before the call. Keep the prices current.
How should a locksmith website handle lockout calls?
With a phone number, not a form. Put the number in the header of every page and make "locked out now" the first choice on the home page, leading to a tap-to-call button and your response window. Save the form for planned work.
What should a locksmith website say about verifying identity?
Say that you verify before you open or change a lock, and list what counts: photo ID with the address, a lease or utility bill, or a property contact who can confirm. Honest customers read it as professionalism, and the technician is not negotiating at the door.
How do I show my locksmith service area without city pages?
One service area page that names every town and neighborhood you cover in text, plus the same area on your Google Business Profile. The trade is full of websites with a page for every suburb and no address; a single page with your address and the towns you cover tells a visitor you are the opposite of that.
Should a locksmith website list a license number?
If your state licenses locksmiths and you hold one, yes, in the footer and on the About page, with the issuing agency. Where your state does not license the trade, say so and show your insurance and any association membership you hold instead. Take down anything that has lapsed.
Can one website cover residential, automotive and commercial locksmith work?
Yes, as long as each has its own page. A homeowner, a driver with a lost fob and a property manager search for different things and want different proof. One home page routes them; three service pages speak to each. Garage doors and safes get a page too, if you do them.
