About Arcadia
Arcadia spreads south from Camelback Mountain over what were citrus groves, with big lots, ranch houses from the 1950s and 1960s, and a lot of rebuilding. The median home in 85018 dates to 1970 and 44% of households rent (Census ACS). 31% moved in during 2020 or later, and a remodel usually means contractors, designers and cleaners who all held a key or a code. Rekeying every exterior door, the casita and the side gate after a sale or a renovation is the common job here, along with smart deadbolts on doors that face the afternoon sun. Camelback trailhead lockouts are the other one.

Arcadia questions
Do you cover all of Arcadia?
Yes, ZIP 85018 included. Whoever phones you back checks that your street falls inside their service area before booking a visit.
Will I know the price before work starts?
Yes. We ask each lock business we refer to for a phone total that already counts the trip, and for that same figure when they arrive. A higher number at the door means you can send them away.
Are locksmiths licensed in Arizona?
No. Arizona has no state locksmith license. Title 32 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which sets up every licensed profession from barbers to contractors, has no chapter for locksmiths, and Phoenix doesn't add one. The one state license that can touch lock work is a contractor license from the Registrar of Contractors: under A.R.S. 32-1121, a job of $1,000 or more in parts and labor, or one that needs a building permit, generally calls for a licensed contractor. A lockout or a rekey is nowhere near that. What you can check is the business itself: its name on the Arizona Corporation Commission's eCorp search, a written total before work, and an itemized invoice with that name on it.
