Pop-A-Lock of New Orleans, founded in 1993, initially focused on providing Emergency Car Door Unlocking (EDU) services as a free public service to the local community. By 1998, the company was integrated into the area's 911 emergency response system and expanded to include roadside assistance services. In 2000, it began offering automotive, residential, and commercial locksmith services.

In 2004, the company was acquired by Paul H. Sewall, a Tulane University graduate and Board Certified Safety Professional. Despite the setbacks of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, Pop-A-Lock New Orleans reopened and continued to grow, eventually becoming one of the most successful franchisees in the Pop-A-Lock network. Today, the company employs over 20 licensed locksmiths and remains committed to excellent customer service, with a focus on fast response times and reliable service.

The management team is led by Paul H. Sewall III, the owner, and includes key figures such as Regional Manager Paul H. Sewall IV and City Manager Kris Gremlin. Pop-A-Lock New Orleans is a fully licensed Life Safety and Property Protection firm in Louisiana.
