Four Categories, Four Different Trades
A house rekey and a transponder key share almost nothing: different tools, different training, different pricing logic. The four category guides below keep them apart so you can read about the job you actually have.
Residential Locksmith
Rekeying, lock replacement, deadbolts, and smart locks for New Jersey homes, from Hudson County walkups to Shore cottages.

What Things Usually Cost Here
New Jersey Price Ranges, With the Variables Named
These are typical bands for New Jersey, not quotes. Lock type, time of day, travel distance, and vehicle model all move the number, which is exactly why a single flat price quoted over the phone before anyone has seen the job is worth a second look.
| Service | Typical NJ range |
|---|---|
| Residential lockout, non-destructive entry Overnight and holiday calls sit at the top of the band or above it. | $75 to $150 |
| Rekeying a standard pin-tumbler deadbolt Plus a service call fee. Doing the whole house in one visit costs less per lock. | $25 to $50 per lock |
| Car lockout Varies with the vehicle and the lock type. | $65 to $120 |
| Replacement car key, cut and programmed Covers the blade and pairing the transponder to the immobilizer. | $150 to $350 |
Typical New Jersey ranges compiled from published industry pricing. Your written quote comes from the locksmith who takes the job, before any work starts. Ask for the service call fee and the labor separately: that is the only way to compare two quotes fairly.
