Do Locksmiths Work on Weekends?
Yes, weekend work is standard in this trade, and it should not cost extra. Apex Locksmith Pros runs the same 8 AM–8 PM schedule all seven days across North Dallas, and the flat quote is identical on Saturday and on Tuesday: a car lockout is $79, a house lockout is $89, whichever day you call.
The weekend surcharge question
Plenty of companies advertise seven-day service and then quietly bill weekends as 'after hours,' sometimes starting Friday evening. The surcharge is not illegal, just unstated until the tech arrives. The fix is one sentence on the phone: ask for the flat total for today, this address, this job. If Saturday costs more than Wednesday, you want to hear that before dispatch, not after the door is open.
What about overnight?
We are honest about the edge: our last calls go out at 8 PM. True overnight service exists in the metro, usually at a genuine emergency premium, and for a 2 AM lockout with no safe place to wait it is worth paying. If you can get somewhere warm until morning, the same job at 8 AM runs at the plain day rate. That trade-off is yours to make; we just think you should know both numbers exist.

Is Sunday more expensive than a weekday?
Not with us. The quote is built from the job and the location, never the day of the week.
Are you open on holidays?
The schedule around major holidays varies, so call the booking line and ask for the day you need. You get a yes or a no, not a voicemail.
How fast on a Saturday?
Same as any day: most North Dallas addresses see a tech in about 20-30 minutes, traffic depending.
