Residential locksmith services
Many residents live in older multi-unit buildings with a shared street door and a unit lock higher up a stair. Tell us which door failed and who can authorize work. Rekeying after a lost key or a household change is common; replacement may be better if the cylinder is worn. Space inside older door preparations can be tight, so a photo of the hardware helps planning.
Commercial locksmith services
Restaurants, shops and small offices often need a morning lockout, a staff rekey or storefront hardware service. Rear or basement doors should be named separately. An authorized person should meet the technician; sidewalks are crowded and the correct door is easy to miss.
Car lockout help
Parking is scarce and often in a nearby garage rather than at the door. Give the garage or the closest cross street and the vehicle details. Unlocking is limited; key programming is not advertised.
Getting to the door
Steep grades on California, Sacramento or Washington Streets and one-way alleys affect how we approach. Describe the entrance clearly and stay reachable by phone.
