Mailbox locks wear out over time just like any other security device. If your mailbox lock is sticking, loose, or just doesn’t feel right, it might be time for a professional replacement. This small upgrade can make a huge difference in keeping your personal mail — and your identity — safe.
We serve homeowners, renters, businesses, and apartment managers throughout Georgetown with fast, affordable mailbox lock replacements. Whether you have a USPS-issued lock or a private box, our techs can swap it out quickly — often in less than 30 minutes.
Is your key not turning smoothly anymore? That’s often the first sign. You might also notice the lock wiggles, feels loose, or doesn't spring back correctly after opening. In some cases, rust or moisture buildup causes the lock to seize completely.
If you’ve recently moved into a home or apartment and weren’t given a key — it’s smart to change the lock. The same applies if you’ve had mail go missing or noticed signs of tampering. Even minor lock damage can escalate into bigger problems.
We start by confirming your mailbox type and access — whether you have the key or the box is locked shut. Our technician then removes the old cylinder using special tools that avoid damaging the box or mounting.
Next, we install a brand-new, USPS-approved lock with fresh keys, ensuring it turns cleanly and clicks firmly. You’ll test it before we go. We also offer optional upgrades to high-security or weather-sealed locks for improved durability.
We carry all standard and specialty mailbox lock cylinders, including double cam and offset cam models. Tools include lock extractors, cam removers, USPS-authorized equipment, drill guides (if needed), and silicone sealant to protect against weather intrusion.
We use only high-quality lock brands that meet USPS standards and include a 6-month warranty on parts and labor.
First, don’t try to force the lock open — it could damage the door or the housing. Instead, give us a call. We offer fast lost-key solutions in Georgetown with lock replacement or rekeying options.
If your box is part of a community cluster mailbox and labeled "USPS," only the post office can change the lock — but we can guide you through requesting that service. For privately owned units, we handle everything from unlocking to secure new key setup.
Want extra copies? We also provide duplicate key cutting on-site.
Modern mailbox locks are stronger, weather-resistant, and less prone to picking. Swapping an old or failing lock reduces the chance of theft and ensures only you have access.
In today’s world of rising mail theft, especially identity-related crime, replacing your lock is one of the most affordable and effective steps you can take. See our tips on how to prevent mailbox tampering.

Mailbox key duplication is one of those services you don’t realize you need until it’s too late. Whether it’s for a backup, a roommate, or a new employee, having a spare key can save you time, money, and stress. In Georgetown, our mobile locksmiths make duplicating mailbox keys quick and easy. We work with residential, commercial, and community mailboxes of all types.
If you already have a working key, the process is simple. If not, don’t worry — we can help you identify your mailbox type and unlock or rekey the lock. Our mobile units come to you, meaning no downtime or trips to a hardware store that might not even carry your specific key type.

Mailbox keys are easy to lose and hard to replace—unless you have a spare. That’s why duplicating your key ahead of time is a smart move. Our Georgetown locksmith team specializes in key duplication for all types of mailboxes, including private, HOA, and USPS-compliant models.
We use precision key-cutting tools and carry blanks compatible with most standard locks. Our locksmiths can duplicate your key on-site in minutes. If your current key is worn down or partially damaged, we’ll inspect it first and recommend the safest duplication method.
One of the top reasons people request a duplicate is simply to avoid lockouts. Having a spare key on hand means fewer emergencies and less stress when something goes wrong. You might also want to give access to a family member, roommate, or trusted neighbor while on vacation.
In commercial or apartment settings, property managers often need multiple keys for maintenance staff or new tenants. We also help business owners provide backup access to employees without the risk of handing out the only key.
Mailbox keys fall into a few categories, each with different rules for duplication:
If the key says “Do Not Duplicate,” most hardware stores won’t copy it — but that doesn’t mean we can’t. We assess your lock type and determine if duplication is legally and mechanically possible. In most residential cases, it’s absolutely allowed.
If your key is bent, chipped, or smoothed from wear, we may re-code it using the lock itself to ensure a precise cut. Our goal is to give you a backup key that works as smoothly as the original.
If you’ve lost the key entirely, don’t panic. We can still help. For privately-owned mailboxes, our locksmith will come out, unlock the box, and either rekey or replace the lock completely. You'll get brand new keys on the spot.
For cluster boxes managed by USPS, you’ll need to file a request with your local post office. In the meantime, we can guide you on how to secure your mail and what steps to take. Also check our guide on mail theft and fraud prevention.
Prices vary depending on your key type and condition. In most cases, a simple duplicate key costs much less than replacing the entire lock. Here’s a typical price range:
We’ll always give you a firm quote before doing anything. Our Georgetown mobile team delivers affordable and fast service every time.
If the mailbox is privately owned — whether standalone or HOA managed — you generally have full rights to duplicate the key. USPS locks, however, are federal property and cannot be serviced or copied without authorization from the post office.
Tenants and renters should check their lease or HOA agreement to confirm if they are responsible for replacement. Landlords may require return of all keys at move-out. To avoid disputes, having duplicates ready is a good backup plan.
Sometimes — but many don’t carry the correct blank or refuse “Do Not Duplicate” keys.
Yes! Our mobile service covers all of Georgetown and nearby towns.
No worries. We’ll unlock and either rekey or replace the lock for you.
Usually under 10 minutes once the key is confirmed to be duplicable.
Yes — we can cut as many as you need on-site.
No. Each lock has a unique code, but duplicates can be made for matching keys.
