If it were a locksmith, it would be part of the charge for changing locks which could be done in one hour ($60 in my market).

If it allows entry... usually with some pre-notification... send her a letter, certified and first class... tell her you are coming in at a specific date and time... hire a lock smith, bring the police and then exercise your rights as a landlord.If your lease don't contain an entry clause... make sure that the next one does.Best of luck!

Will need a locksmith to release the riding gate padlock etc.For a while it seemed they were never gonna get a rental but i had to brag about them when the next landlord called.

They will assist/meet you at the property "with persistence"... and allow you to change the locks(have a locksmith ready to assist).

Locksmith fee listed in lease?

This way we can easily set new pins for new tenants, don't have to call locksmiths, can create pins for handymen/cleaners, etc2.

We were not able to get in to see the house, and of course because it is bank owned, the listing agent wont be able to get a locksmith in until Monday.The part that seems fishy, is that both properties had offers on them within days of going on the market, and both were listed for well below market value, likely to get lots of offers quickly.

When you have a turnover, and the current tenant moves 3 states away, they still will use their high priced locksmith to rekey two locks, and charge you $80.00 an hour for that.  

My new locksmith try to convence me to install those system on one of my unit and might be others as he explaint to me I keep one key for all units as master key.

I wonder what would happen if you 'broke' in (got a locksmith to change the locks) while they were out and said the same thing?
