Help Us Find You in Pikeville and the Roads Around It

Pikeville is a small town. The 2020 Census counted 712 people, and the town covers less than one square mile. Plenty of homes near Pikeville sit outside the town limits, along country roads. The more clearly you describe where you are, the easier it is for your Pikeville locksmith to pull up at the right door.

A few tips that help when you call:

• On a country road: Give the road name, the number on your mailbox and the closest crossroads. If the house sits at the end of a long driveway, tell us.
• Near the interstate: I-795 runs just west of town. Exit 18 is the Main Street exit for Pikeville. Name the exit and the business where you parked.
• At the high school: Charles B. Aycock High School has been in Pikeville since 1960. If your keys got locked in the car during a game or a practice, tell us which lot you are in.
• After dark: Turn on a porch light or the car’s hazard lights so the locksmith can spot you.

Did the car lock with the engine running? Mention it when you call. If a child or a pet is stuck inside a car on a warm day, dial 911 before anything else. Our number comes second.

Car Keys for Drivers on I-795

I-795 runs about 25 miles, from US 70 in Goldsboro north to I-95 near Wilson. Along with US 117, it is one of the two main highways through Pikeville. So a key can go missing a long way from home, or a key fob can quit in a lot far from your spare.

As a car locksmith, we cut new car keys and program new key fobs and keyless remotes right where the car is parked. Plenty of makes and models are covered, though not all. Programming is the step that pairs a new fob with your car so the car will answer to it.

Here is how to make the call go smoothly:

1. Tell us the year, make and model first. With those three facts, we can tell you during that call if your car is on our list.
2. Tell us where the car is now. A driveway in Pikeville, a work lot in Goldsboro or a store lot all work for us.
3. Tell us if a key was stolen. If a thief has your key, we can rekey the car’s locks so that key no longer opens the doors.

One more tip: keep your spare in the house, not in the glove box. A spare locked inside the car does not help anyone. Learn more about our car key and fob service.

Inherited the Family Home? Sort Out the Keys First

Pikeville has deep roots. In 1763, Samuel Pike was granted land on the south side of Nahunta Swamp. His son Nathan Pike gave the town its name, and the town was incorporated on February 25, 1891. In an old town like this, a house may stay in one family for generations.

Over the years, keys to a family home get passed around. A neighbor keeps one for emergencies. A caregiver gets one. So do cousins, painters and the crew that fixed the roof. When the house passes to you, nobody can say for sure how many copies are still out there.

A rekey solves that without new hardware. We change the small pins inside each lock. After that, only your new keys turn it, and every old copy stops working. Your doorknob and deadbolt do not come off. If your outside doors take the same type of key, we can often key them alike, so one new key opens every outside door.

Older locks may stick, rub or fail to latch. Many can be repaired. If a lock is worn out, we can put in a stronger deadbolt. Some families choose a smart lock instead. With many models, each helper can get a code of their own, and you can delete a code when that person no longer needs it. We tell you plainly when a simple rekey is all the house needs.

Bought a home instead? The same steps apply, and house lockouts are residential locksmith work we handle around the clock. See our rekeys and lock repair for your home.

Keys for Small Businesses and Rental Houses

Small businesses around Pikeville often share one ring of keys among a few people. That works until the ring goes missing, or a worker moves on and keeps a key.

A commercial locksmith visit can help in several ways:

• Lost key ring: We rekey the doors so the missing keys are useless, then cut new copies.
• Locked out at opening time: Call any hour and we will come open the door.
• Worn locks: We repair or upgrade locks on doors that open and close all day.
• Rental houses: Landlords can rekey between tenants, so the last renter’s keys no longer fit.

A simple habit helps here. Keep a written list of who holds each key, and update it when someone leaves. Then you will know right away when it is time to rekey. Read more about our business lock services.
