- Genuinely open 24/7

- Mobile — we come to you
We keep the parts common to Glendale homes and buildings on the van, which usually saves a second trip.
The streets around Central Avenue and downtown Glendale are part of our regular run, so Glendale is rarely far.
What a rekey involves
On site in Glendale, the job runs:
- We confirm you own or are authorized for the home, and check ID.
- We test every door with the new key and, if you asked, key them all alike.
- We check each lock turns smoothly afterward, since a tired cylinder can be felt during a rekey.
When people call us for this in Glendale
- A tenant, roommate, or contractor moved on and had a key.
- Your doors take different keys and you want one key for all of them.
- You just moved in and have no idea who holds a copy.
Rekey around Glendale
The 2020 Census counted 196,543 residents, making Glendale one of the larger cities we serve.
The dense downtown around Brand Boulevard brings frequent apartment, common-area and storefront lock work.
Glendale spans the 91201 through 91208 ZIP codes.
Our Glendale runs tend to follow Central Avenue and CA-134 (Ventura Freeway), so we reach most of the area quickly.
From downtown Glendale, the Brand Boulevard corridor, Montrose and the Verdugo Woodlands to the quieter blocks, we know how Glendale is laid out and what its doors tend to use.
We take Glendale calls across 91201, 91202, 91203, 91204, 91205, 91206, 91207 and 91208, all within our regular range.
Whether you are by the Americana at Brand or on a side street, Glendale is territory we know.
With CA-134 (Ventura Freeway), CA-2 (Glendale Freeway) and I-5 (Golden State Freeway) close by, we move between Glendale jobs without losing time.
Glendale is a longer drive east of West Hills via the US-101 and CA-134.
Where we are straight with you
Most locks rekey cleanly, but incompatible keyways and badly worn cylinders have limits. Where keying everything to one key is not possible, we explain the options rather than force a mismatch. Around Glendale, we would rather tell you this up front than surprise you on site.
How we keep it straight
If you are in Glendale and stuck, call and we will talk through your options before anyone commits to anything.
Before we open a door, start a car or make a key, we confirm you have the right to be there — photo ID plus proof of residence, ownership, or authorization. It protects you as much as it protects us.
We would rather quote you straight than bait you with a number that changes on arrival. You hear the price up front and sign off on it in writing before anything begins.
We tell you a realistic arrival window on the call. Traffic across the Valley varies, so we would rather give you a straight answer than a promise we cannot keep.

Questions people ask
Can one key work all my doors?
Yes, as long as the locks are compatible. Keying alike is a common request, and we set it up during the rekey so a single key opens every exterior door.
Can you rekey my mailbox or a padlock too?
Often, yes, depending on the lock. Tell us what you have and we will say up front what we can rekey and what is better replaced.
