We’ve been helping Delaware County drivers since the late 1800s. We’re the largest locksmith operation in the Delaware Valley, and we’ve earned that reputation by showing up fast and fixing things right the first time.
Tom McCausland and his daughter Chrissy run our family business from our fully stocked Prospect Park location. We know the Ithan area well – from the busy professionals in those beautiful million-dollar homes to families juggling school pickups at Ithan Elementary.

We’re especially busy helping Ithan families who are juggling work schedules, school activities, and everything else life throws at you. When you’re locked out in the Whole Foods parking lot or your key breaks off at the Radnor Township building, we understand the urgency and respond accordingly.
We typically reach Ithan locations within 20-30 minutes of your call. Our mobile technicians cover the entire Delaware County area from our Prospect Park base, and we keep trucks positioned strategically throughout the region.
When you call, we immediately dispatch the closest available technician to your exact location. We understand that being locked out disrupts your entire day, especially in a busy area like Ithan where people have tight schedules and important commitments.
Our response time is one of the fastest in the area because we’re the largest locksmith operation in the Delaware Valley with the most mobile units on the road.
Absolutely not. Our technicians use specialized tools and techniques designed specifically for automotive lockouts without causing any damage to your vehicle’s paint, weather stripping, or door mechanisms.
We’ve been doing this for over 140 years, and damaging your property would just create more expensive problems for you. Our goal is to solve your immediate problem safely and professionally.
Every technician carries professional-grade lockout tools like Lishi picks and specialized slim jims that work with your car’s specific locking mechanism. We know exactly how to access different makes and models without risking costly damage.
Our pricing is transparent and significantly less than what you’d pay at a dealership. Most car lockouts run around $79, while key replacement and programming varies depending on your vehicle’s specific requirements.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so there are never surprise fees or hidden charges. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we begin.
Compare that to dealership pricing where you might pay $200-400 for the same key programming service, plus you’d have to get your car towed there first. We come to you and handle everything on-site for a fraction of the cost.
Yes, we program transponder keys, proximity key fobs, and smart keys for virtually all vehicle makes and models. Our mobile units carry the latest programming equipment and key blanks for everything from basic transponder chips to advanced proximity systems.
We use the same OEM programming procedures and parts that your dealership would use, but we do it at your location for much less money. Whether you drive a luxury vehicle or an economy car, we have the tools and expertise to handle your specific key system.
Most key programming jobs are completed within 15-20 minutes while you wait. We test everything thoroughly before we leave to make sure your new keys work perfectly with your vehicle’s security system.
Yes, we provide mobile automotive locksmith services throughout Ithan, Villanova, and all of Radnor Township. Our coverage area includes everywhere from the residential neighborhoods around Ithan Elementary School to the business districts near Lancaster Avenue.
We’re familiar with the area’s layout and traffic patterns, which helps us reach you faster. Whether you’re at home, at work, or stranded somewhere between, we’ll find you quickly.
Our Delaware County coverage extends well beyond just Ithan to include Wayne, Bryn Mawr, Media, Upper Darby, and the surrounding communities. If you’re within reasonable driving distance of our Prospect Park location, we’ll get to you.
Stay safe and stay with your vehicle if possible. If you’re in a parking lot or safe area, remain near your car so our technician can find you easily. Have your identification ready to verify ownership.
If you’re in an unsafe location or severe weather, move to a safe nearby location but let us know where you’ll be waiting when you call. Safety is always the top priority.
Don’t attempt to unlock your car yourself using coat hangers, credit cards, or other improvised tools. These methods can damage your vehicle’s locking mechanisms, weather stripping, or paint, creating expensive repair bills that far exceed the cost of professional service.
