Close to Home, So Short Waits
Our base is in Ballwin, and Des Peres is just a few miles east along Manchester Road, past Manchester. That makes it one of our shortest trips. For you, that means a shorter wait on a lockout, and it means we can often fit in a same-day rekey or lock change without you losing a whole day waiting.
We will still give you an honest arrival time when you call. If we are on another job, we will say so rather than promise a time we cannot keep.
Houses That Have Had the Same Keys for Decades
Des Peres is a settled town. Incorporated in 1934, it has about 9,200 residents, and its homes rarely come up for sale. Many families stay for twenty or thirty years. That is good for the town, but it has one side effect on locks: over the years, the house keys get handed out to a lot of people.
Think of a cleaner, a dog walker, the neighbor who waters the plants, a builder from a kitchen job ten years ago, grown children, and a spare under a flower pot everyone knows about. When a house finally changes hands, the new owner has no idea how many of those keys are still out there.
So if you have just bought a home in Des Peres, the first job we would suggest is a rekey. It retires every old key in one visit, and it costs much less than new locks. If you have lived here a long time and lost count of the keys, the same answer applies.
Locksmith Services in Des Peres
Residential Locksmith Services
When locks are in good shape, rekeying changes the key so the old keys stop working. We can also put the front door, back door, and garage door on one key, so you carry one key instead of three.
We replace worn, broken, or outdated locks. We measure the door, backset, and bore first so the new lock fits properly. If the lock is fine but the door has dropped, or the latch no longer lines up, repair and adjustment is usually cheaper.
A code is handy when a cleaner, dog walker, or family member needs to get in, because you can change it anytime and nobody needs a key cut. We check the door thickness, backset, and bore before ordering anything so the lock suits the door.
Commercial Locksmith Services
Manchester Road through Des Peres is lined with shops, offices, and service businesses. When staff come and go, key control matters. We handle rekeying, lock changes,s and repairs on commercial doors, and we can work before you open or after you close.
Emergency Locksmith Services
For a house, condo, apartment, or office, call with the address and tell us what kind of lock is on the door. We open it with care rather than drilling out hardware that was working fine an hour ago.
Are your keys locked in the car at West County Center, in a Manchester Road car park, or on your own drive? We can open your car door. That is the only vehicle work we do: no key cutting, fob or remote programming, or ignition work.

Des Peres Locksmith Questions
How fast can you get to Des Peres?
Des Peres is one of the closest towns to our Ballwin base, so the drive itself is short. The real wait depends on what we are already doing when you call. Ring (636) 628- 7803 and we will give you an honest time.
I just bought a house. Should I rekey or replace the locks?
If the locks work well and you like how they look, rekey them. It stops every old key from working and costs much less than new locks. Replace them only if they are worn, damaged, or you want a different style.
Can you put all my doors on one key?
Usually, yes, as long as the locks are the same type of keyway or can be changed to match. We rekey them all to one key during the same visit. Please tell us how many doors when you call so we bring enough parts.
Can you unlock my car at West County Center?
Yes. Please tell us which car park or level you are on and what the car is. We only open car doors; we don’t cut car keys or program fobs.
Do you work on shop doors along Manchester Road?
Yes. We rekey, repair, and change locks on shop and office doors, and we can come before opening or after closing so your customers aren’t disturbed.
