Scottsdale neighborhoods Scott covers
Scottsdale was incorporated in 1951 and grew north in waves of master-planned communities. Scott covers all of it, including:
South Scottsdale and Old Town
- Southern Scottsdale: some of the oldest neighborhoods in the city, developed from the late 1950s through the early 1980s, according to the city.
- Old Town Scottsdale: the downtown core, home to Scottsdale Fashion Square.
Central Scottsdale
- Scottsdale Ranch: a master-planned community started in 1978.
- McCormick Ranch: built on the 4,236-acre ranch of Anne and Fowler McCormick, sold in 1970 and now home to about 27,000 residents.
- Gainey Ranch: a master-planned community started in 1980.

What Scottsdale homeowners call about
Scottsdale's median owner-occupied home value is $789,800, and 26.4% of residents are 65 or older, according to the Census. That shapes the work:
- Safes: Scott opens safes when the combination is lost or the keypad dies, replaces safe locks, installs electronic locks, and moves safes in and out of homes. More on safe services.
- High-security locks: Medeco, Mul-T-Lock and Schlage high-security cylinders resist picking and key copying, and their keys can't be copied at an ordinary hardware store.
- Rekeys: after you buy a home, change housekeepers or property managers, or hand out keys to contractors. About a third of Scottsdale homes are renter-occupied, based on the Census's 67% owner-occupancy rate, so rekeying between tenants matters here too. More on rekeying and home locks.
- Part-year residents: if you leave for the summer, a rekey before you go means only the keys you hand out will work.
A note for HOA communities
Most of Scottsdale's master-planned communities have design guidelines for the outside of a home. Check yours before you pick a new finish or style for front-door hardware. A rekey changes only the inside of the lock, so it doesn't change how the door looks.
Locksmith service for Scottsdale businesses
The Scottsdale Airpark has more than 59,000 employees and about 3,233 small and medium-sized businesses, according to the city. Scottsdale's largest employers include HonorHealth, Vanguard, General Dynamics Mission Systems and Mayo Clinic, and offices, clinics and shops run from Old Town to SkySong, the ASU Scottsdale Innovation Center at McDowell and Scottsdale roads. Scott handles the work a business needs:
- Master key systems so each employee's key opens only the doors they need
- Rekeys after staff changes, so a former employee's key stops working
- Exit devices, panic bars and door closers
- High-security cylinders, including Medeco, Mul-T-Lock and Schlage
- Safe opening, electronic safe locks and safe moving for cash and records
Businesses can pay by card, Zelle or check, or set up purchase orders and net terms with a written agreement. More on commercial locksmith service.
