About Biltmore and Camelback East
The Biltmore area and Camelback East run along the 24th Street and Camelback Road corridor up to the Arizona Canal, mixing condo towers and garden apartments with older ranch houses. In 85016, 49% of households rent and 37% of homes are in buildings of 10 or more units (Census ACS). That means a lot of gated garages, mailbox banks and building fobs, which the association or the management company controls. For the houses, the median of which dates to 1977, the calls are rekeys, deadbolts and car keys lost on a night out at the Biltmore shops.

Biltmore and Camelback East questions
Do you cover all of Biltmore and Camelback East?
Yes, ZIP 85016 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.
