Lockouts don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. At Gill Bro Emergency Locksmith, we roll where we're needed - fast, local, and always ready. Below are the Arlington neighborhoods and nearby towns we know like the back of our key machine. If it's within 15 miles, it's in our zone. No tolls. No waitlists. Just solid locksmith work from people who live around here.
Trendy condos, brownstones, and that one apartment building with a door buzzer older than your car - we've seen them all. Clarendon folks often need smart lock upgrades, late-night lockout rescues after dinner, or mailbox rekeying for shared units. We even got a call once to unlock a guitar case someone lost the key to. True story.
With so many high-rises and offices packed into a few blocks, Ballston keeps us busy. We've handled broken fobs in parking garages, jammed front doors in renovated row homes, and a car lockout that turned out to be... the wrong car. (It happens.) If you work or live near the Quarter, we're probably already nearby.
Rosslyn's mix of apartments, offices, and hotels means we see it all. One day it's a commercial rekey for a tech startup, the next it's helping a tourist locked out of their Airbnb. The parking's tight, but we know where to stash the van without getting towed - locals only trick.
If it has a key, someone's lost it at Fashion Centre Mall. We've helped shoppers get back into their cars, residents rekey condo doors, and even helped a food truck vendor unlock their storage bin during a morning setup. Big buildings, big crowds, big need for fast locksmiths.
Quiet, charming, and full of walkable townhomes - until you lock yourself out walking the dog. We've been there more than once. We know the layouts of most buildings in Shirlington Village, and yes, we'll still pet your dog while we work.
This stretch is packed with older homes, newer apartments, and everything in between. We've replaced worn-out deadbolts, fixed locks after tenant turnover, and once extracted a key that snapped in a 1960s-era doorknob. Pike regulars trust us because we show up quick - and we're fair with pricing.
Old Town has charm - and tricky antique locks. We love working here, but let's just say not every locksmith carries tools that fit 100-year-old mortise locks. We do. And if you're in Del Ray or Seminary Hill, we've done late-night car fob rescues in both.
Falls Church has a surprising number of basements with old security bars and locks that haven't been used in years - until someone needs them open. We've helped homeowners unstick safes, rekey garage side doors, and install Medeco locks on homes close to Route 7.
McLean calls usually mean one of two things: high-end hardware or heavy-duty panic bars on commercial doors. We're equipped for both. Plus, we know that some driveways here are longer than city blocks - so we call ahead and meet you halfway if needed.
Annandale's homes come in all shapes and ages, and we've rekeyed everything from 1950s locksets to smart locks for rental properties. Also: there's a particular strip mall where people lock their keys in cars constantly. No judgment - we're just familiar.
College students lose dorm keys, parents get locked out during drop-off, and folks with older homes need lock upgrades. We handle it all. One regular customer has us on speed dial because, quote, "someone's always forgetting something in this house".
From broken keys and stuck locks to missing fobs and rekey requests, Gill Bro Emergency Locksmith is here for Arlington and all the towns around it. We know the area, we show up fast, and we keep it real. Save our number. You won't need us every day - but when you do, we'll be ready.
