Do I have to be home when the locksmith arrives?
Yes, in almost every case. A reputable Indian Trail, NC locksmith will not open a residence, business or vehicle without verifying ID and authority — that's how we make sure we're letting in the right person.
Verifying ID is part of what separates a real locksmith from someone helping a stranger break in. An Indian Trail, NC locksmith will ask to see a photo ID matching the property address, lease, registration, or business license before opening the lock.
If you're sending someone in your place (a tenant, family member, employee), call ahead and have them bring documentation that links them to the property.
For rekeys and installs that don't involve forced entry, you can sometimes leave the property with a trusted contact — but for any lockout, you or an authorized adult should be on-site.
Our local Indian Trail, NC locksmith is available 6 AM – 11:30 PM, every day.
