My stupid brother lost his keys which have his name on the key ring for whatever stupid reason so if anyone finds them can just get into our house whenever they like! How much does it cost to get the locks on 2 doors changed? Front and back doors.

It would depend on where you live. Contact a local bonded locksmith during normal business hours. They can perform the work at your house. If you can take the locks to the lock smith it will be less expensive. I would guess if you took the locks to the locksmith it would be about $25 per lock. House call add about $50 to $100

It would be cheaper to buy new locks, depending on the type and manufacturer. If you have 2 locks on 2 doors, your looking at a charge that would far exceed the average cost of 2 turnkey lock, door knobs and 2 deadbolt locks. Besides, security features, built in to the locks disable the old way of creating a new key without an original, the next way would to have a locksmith drill holes into your locks.
