// OPERATIONAL TERRITORY
Super Lock and Key has been Sarasota County's go-to locksmith company for over 20 years. We're not a call center that dispatches random contractors — every technician on our team is a licensed, background-checked professional who trained with us directly. When you call, you get a real person. When a tech shows up, they show up in a marked vehicle with full ID. That's the Super Lock and Key standard.
Most locksmith scams start with a bait-and-switch: a low advertised price that balloons once the tech is at your door. We've never operated that way. Every job starts with an exact, upfront quote before any work begins. If the price changes for any reason, we tell you before we touch anything. That transparency is why we've built a 4.9-star reputation across hundreds of verified Google reviews.
Whether you just moved into a new home in Longboat Key, need deadbolts upgraded, or locked yourself out at midnight — we respond fast. Our residential services cover everything from basic lock installation and rekeying to high-security Grade 1 deadbolt systems, smart lock programming (Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, Yale Assure), and complete master key systems for property managers and landlords across Sarasota County.
Businesses in Longboat Key trust Super Lock and Key for access control installation, master key systems, panic bar hardware, ADA-compliant exit devices, and commercial-grade high-security locks. We work with office buildings, retail stores, warehouses, apartment complexes, and restaurants across Tampa Bay. Our commercial response time is the same as residential — because a business lockout costs money every minute the doors are closed.
Locked your keys in your car? Lost a transponder key? Need a new key fob programmed? We handle all of it on-site. Our mobile automotive locksmith units carry key cutting equipment and OBD programming tools that work with domestic and foreign vehicles — Toyota, Honda, Ford, GM, BMW, Mercedes, Hyundai, Kia, and more. Car dealerships charge two to three times what we charge for the same service, and they require towing. We come to you.
All technicians hold active Florida locksmith licenses under Chapter 493, F.S. Fully bonded and insured for residential and commercial work.
Our quote is our price. We provide written estimates before starting any job. No service call fees, no after-hours surcharges, no trip charges within Tampa Bay.
We maintain mobile units staged throughout Tampa Bay so our average response time is 30 minutes or less — faster during off-peak hours.
Every job is backed by our workmanship guarantee. If a lock we installed fails within 90 days due to installation error, we fix it free.
From Longbeach Village to Buttonwood Harbour — if you're in Sarasota County, we cover your area. No mileage fees within our service zone.

// WHAT WE HANDLE
Grand master, sub-masters, change keys — designed around how your business actually flows. One key hierarchy across every door in the Longboat Key location.
Card readers, keypads, mobile credentials, audit logs, scheduled access. Instant deactivation on staff turnover beats any mechanical rekey.
Von Duprin, Sargent, Precision. Install, recertify, and repair. Required on most commercial egress doors in Longboat Key per Florida code.
Between tenants, on staff turnover, after a key-control breach. IC-core hardware makes this a 30-second job per door; conventional cylinders take a bit longer.
Priority dispatch in Longboat Key — every hour closed is revenue lost. Pre-open emergency rates disclosed on the phone, never sprung on you after arrival.
Business safes, drop boxes, pharmacy safes. Opened non-destructively whenever the make allows, then rekeyed or recombinated.
// CODE & COMPLIANCE
One non-rated component (hinge, strike, closer) voids the rating. Replacement must match the original rating or higher.
Most Florida jurisdictions require annual recertification. We document it for your fire marshal file.
Operable with a closed fist, under 5 lbs force on interior doors. Knob hardware on public-access doors fails.
Illegal on egress doors in most FL jurisdictions — key-inside means trapped occupants in a fire. Single-cylinder with thumbturn only.
Electronic locks on egress paths must unlock on power loss. Fail-secure is perimeter-only.
Who has which key, are they restricted-keyway, who can authorize copies. We set up the log and keep the chart.
// WHAT WE PROMISE
We’ll come look at the property before quoting on bigger jobs. No charge for the assessment.
Certificate of insurance emailed to your facilities team before our techs are on-site.
We design the key hierarchy with you. You decide who gets what access, we make it work mechanically.
Work the lobby, panic bars, or access control after-hours so your business never closes for it.
Once we’ve worked together, we move to net-15 billing. Less paperwork on every visit.
Real license, real insurance. Verify both before any commercial work begins.
Call ☎ (941) 666-7447 for a free quote on your specific situation. We answer 24/7.

// Local conditions
Dispatch across Longboat Key runs through Longbeach Village, Bay Isles, Country Club Shores and Buttonwood Harbour, and the drive time between them is the reason we quote a window rather than a single number. Longbeach Village and Buttonwood Harbour sit far enough apart that traffic decides the order we take calls in, so the arrival estimate you get on the phone reflects where the nearest van actually is rather than a figure printed on a van door.
Longboat Key — slender barrier island of gulf-front condominiums and golf communities — generates a particular mix of calls. Locksmith work follows how a place is built and used far more than it follows the calendar, which is why the hardware carried for Longboat Key is not identical to what goes on the van for the next town over.
Housing in Longboat Key dates mostly to the 1950s-70s, which means a lot of original Grade 3 cylinders still in service. They wear out quietly: the key starts needing a wiggle, then a lift, then one day it does not turn at all. A rekey is usually enough at that stage, and it costs far less than discovering the problem during a lockout.
Longboat Key is strongly owner-occupied, so the work skews toward upgrades and long-term security rather than turnover: deadbolt replacement, keying the whole house alike, and reinforcing strike plates that were fitted once and never touched again.
A meaningful share of Longboat Key lives in larger buildings, which brings work a single-family street never generates: mailbox locks, buzzer and intercom entry, common-door hardware, and master-key systems where a manager needs access that residents do not have.
Longboat Key is a smaller community of around 7,512 people, which changes the economics: response time depends on where the nearest van happens to be, and it is worth asking for a realistic window rather than assuming a fifteen-minute arrival.
There are about 9,865 housing units in Longboat Key. That number matters more than it looks: it sets how many doors, how much builder-grade hardware from the same era, and how many properties were keyed alike when they were built and never rekeyed since.
Longboat Key sits in Sarasota County, and county lines matter for locksmith work because response areas, permitting for commercial hardware, and the local authority a business deals with all follow them rather than city boundaries.
