About Public Locksmith

A Locksmith Business Built on Integrity

Public Locksmith is a mobile locksmith service based in the Charlotte, NC area — specifically centered around the Ballantyne (28277) corridor and the NC/SC border region. We serve residential, commercial, and automotive clients throughout the greater Charlotte metro on both sides of the state line.

We are fully licensed in both North Carolina and South Carolina, bonded, and insured on every job. Our primary focus is commercial locksmith services — master key systems, access control, commercial rekeying, and commercial lock installation — though we serve residential and automotive clients as well.

Our Commitment

• We quote before we work — no surprise charges
• We recommend repair before replacement when honest
• We show up when we say we will
• Every job is covered by our insurance
• We document our commercial key systems fully
