Are you a local locksmith in Ocala, FL?
Yes. A Leo Locksmith Ocala is locally owned and operated. We serve Ocala and surrounding areas with mobile locksmith services. We are not a call center or third-party dispatch service — when you call us, you’re speaking with a local locksmith.
Do you offer 24/7 locksmith service?
Yes. We provide 24/7 locksmith service for emergencies. Lockouts, lost keys, and broken locks don’t always happen during business hours, so we’re available day and night to help restore access and security.
How fast can you arrive?
Response time depends on your location and traffic conditions, but because we are local and mobile, we focus on fast response times throughout Ocala and nearby areas. We’ll give you an estimated arrival time when you call.
Do you unlock cars, homes, and businesses?

Offices and commercial properties
We use professional, damage-free techniques whenever possible to unlock doors safely.
Can you make a car key if I lost all my keys?
Yes. We offer lost car key replacement, even if you no longer have a working key. Depending on the vehicle, this may include key cutting and programming. We can usually complete the service on-site without towing your vehicle.
Do you program transponder and smart keys?

-
Transponder keys
-
Remote keys
-
Smart keys
-
Push-to-start keys
With over 30 years of experience, we understand both older and modern vehicle security systems.
Is a locksmith cheaper than a dealership?
In most cases, yes. Locksmith services are typically faster and more affordable than dealerships, especially for car keys and lock services. We also save you time by coming directly to your location.
What’s the difference between rekeying and changing locks?
Rekeying changes the internal pins of a lock so old keys no longer work, while keeping the same lock hardware.
Changing locks means replacing the entire lock.
We’ll inspect your locks and recommend the best option based on security, condition, and budget.
Should I change my locks after moving into a new home?
Yes. It’s strongly recommended. You never know how many copies of the old keys exist. Rekeying or changing the locks ensures that only you have access to your new home.
Do you work with landlords and property managers?
Yes. We provide locksmith services for:
-
Rental properties
-
Apartment complexes
-
Property management companies
-
HOAs
This includes rekeying between tenants, lock replacement, master key systems, and emergency services.
Can you install smart locks?
Yes. We install and service smart locks and keyless entry systems for homes, apartments, and businesses. We make sure the lock is installed correctly and functions reliably.
Are your prices upfront?
Yes. We believe in honest, upfront pricing. We explain the problem, your options, and the cost before starting any work. There are no surprise charges or pressure tactics.
Will you damage my door or lock?
We always aim for damage-free service whenever possible. Our experience and professional tools allow us to unlock and repair locks safely. If damage is unavoidable, we’ll explain why before proceeding.
