SECURING SARASOTA SINCE 2017
The story behind Sarasota's most trusted, owner-operated locksmith service. Dedicated to your safety 24/7.
A Tradition of Trust
What started as a one-man, one-van operation in the heart of Sarasota has grown into the area's most trusted local locksmith service. For years, Lockhart Locksmith has stood as a reliable partner for both residential and commercial clients across Florida's Gulf Coast.
Our journey is defined by a commitment to technical excellence and old-school customer service. We don't just unlock doors, we provide peace of mind through smart security solutions and a deep understanding of Sarasota's unique landscape, from historic waterfront estates to modern downtown storefronts.


KEITH HART
Owner & Licensed Locksmith
Keith Hart grew up taking everything apart and putting it back together. From lawnmowers to computers to swing sets, if it had nuts, bolts, or screws, Keith figured out the mechanics and fixed it. That curiosity and love for hands-on problem solving never left him.
After changing his college major six times, Keith realized he didn't want to sit behind a desk. That path led him to the Ritz Carlton, where he mastered world-class customer service and the art of exceeding expectations. He then spent four years working alongside a veteran Sarasota locksmith with over thirty years of experience.
In 2017, Keith launched Lockhart Locksmith, bringing his Ritz Carlton service ethic and deep technical expertise into a business built on trust, honesty, and genuine care for every customer. When you call Lockhart, you're calling Keith directly.
Our Core Principles
Reliability First
Security emergencies don't wait for business hours. 24/7 availability means you're never left stranded, day or night, weekday or holiday.
Quality Hardware
We only use premium-grade security hardware from the industry's most trusted manufacturers. Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Schlage, and ASSA ABLOY, ensuring long-term durability and protection.
Deeply Local
Proudly serving Sarasota, Siesta Key, and Longboat Key. We are neighbors first, security experts second, deeply committed to keeping our community safe.
WHY IT MATTERS
LOCAL & OWNER-OPERATED SINCE 2017
There's a real difference between calling a national locksmith chain and calling Lockhart Locksmith. With us, you're speaking directly to the person who will show up at your door, not a dispatcher routing your call to an unknown subcontractor.
We live and work in Sarasota. We know the neighborhoods, the traffic, and the specific security needs of homes and businesses in this area. That local knowledge means faster response times and smarter solutions for you.
We're also small enough to care. Every job matters to us because every job represents a neighbor who trusted us with their security. We don't take that lightly.
