A licensed mobile locksmith comes to you on Mount Charleston, 24/7, for homes, cabins, cars and businesses in the Spring Mountains. The drive up is considerably longer than a valley call, so we give you a realistic arrival time on the phone and the price before any work starts.
The mountain village sits high above the valley in upper Kyle Canyon, with Lee Canyon to the north, and many homes are cabins used on weekends or rented to visitors. Calls from trailheads and the lower canyon road are covered on our Kyle Canyon page.
- Longer drive, honest timeThe mountain is outside the usual valley window, so you receive a realistic arrival estimate when you call.
- Cabin locksLocks on cabins that sit empty for several weeks can stick, freeze or gradually corrode.
- Car keys on siteWe cut and program vehicle keys and fobs at the trailhead or the cabin, without any towing.
- Same licensed companyThe same licensed, bonded and insured technicians who work throughout the valley drive up here.

Locksmith Services in Mount Charleston
- Cabin and home lockoutsSecond homes and vacation rentals often get locked with the only key inside or left behind in town. We open the door and can rekey before you leave, as explained on our house lockout service page.
- Hardware and keypadsSnow, freezing nights and long unoccupied stretches are hard on exterior locks. We install sturdier deadbolts and keypad locks for rental cabins through our residential locksmith service.
- Car lockoutsKeys locked in a vehicle at a trailhead or a lodge parking area are a frequent call on the mountain. We open the car without damage, exactly as we do in town, as shown on our vehicle lockout page.
- Car keys and fobsA key lost during a hike does not mean an expensive tow down the mountain. The van carries the equipment to cut and program most keys and fobs, as listed on our car keys page.
- Lodges and rentalsLodges, rental managers and other mountain businesses depend on us for rekeys between guests, master key systems and lockouts. Business estimates are free through our commercial locksmith service.
- Cabin safesCabins often keep a small safe for valuables while the property sits empty. If the combination is forgotten or the electronic keypad dies, we open and service it on site through our safe service.

How Fast We Reach Mount Charleston
Mount Charleston takes longer to reach than anywhere in the valley. The drive leaves US 95 and climbs a long mountain road, and snow, ice or holiday traffic can slow the trip even further. We will not quote you the valley window for a mountain call, and instead we give you a realistic arrival time on the phone so you can plan around it.
Typical Locksmith Prices in Mount Charleston
Mountain appointments use the same typical Las Vegas prices as the valley, so a house or cabin lockout usually runs $85 to $195, a car lockout $45 to $135, and a transponder key with programming $150 to $350. Rekeying is about $20 to $50 per lock plus the visit, and a new deadbolt installed usually costs $100 to $300. Late night, weekend and holiday calls typically add $25 to $75. You hear the full price before any work starts, so the drive up holds no surprises.
Questions We Get Asked
Do you come up to Mount Charleston when it snows?
We drive up during winter as long as the road remains open to regular traffic. During storms, road crews may require chains or temporarily close the road, and that slows us down. We check conditions before leaving and give you an honest arrival estimate, so you can decide whether to wait in the car or a warm building nearby.
Can you fit locks that hold up in mountain weather?
Yes. Cabins endure snow, freezing nights and long empty weeks, which quickly wear out inexpensive exterior hardware. We recommend solid deadbolts with durable finishes, and keypads designed for outdoor installation. A new deadbolt installed usually costs $100 to $300, and we review the available options with you before any work begins.
Can you set up a cabin so guests never need a physical key?
Yes. A keypad deadbolt lets each guest use a code that you change between stays, so there are no keys to mail out or misplace on the trail. We install the lock, program the master code and show you how to add and delete guest codes. It also helps whenever you forget your own key in town.
Do you serve Lee Canyon as well as Kyle Canyon?
Yes. Lee Canyon, including the ski area and the cabins along Lee Canyon Road, is part of the Mount Charleston area we cover. It is a long drive from the valley, like the rest of the mountain, so we provide a realistic arrival time on the phone. Prices follow the same typical Las Vegas ranges.
