Working the northern foothills, we see the kind of hardware common to the area and come prepared for it.
Knowing Granada Hills — its streets, its older blocks, and the newer builds — helps us turn up with the right parts the first time.
What a rekey involves
On site in Granada Hills, the job runs:
- We remove each cylinder, replace the pins to match a new key, and reinstall it.
- We test every door with the new key and, if you asked, key them all alike.
- If a lock is too worn to hold a rekey well, we flag it and talk through a change instead.
When people call us for this in Granada Hills
- A key was lost or stolen and you want the old one made useless.
- You just moved in and have no idea who holds a copy.
- A tenant, roommate, or contractor moved on and had a key.
Rekey around Granada Hills
The deodar-lined stretch of Balboa Boulevard, known as Christmas Tree Lane, is a designated local landmark.
Larger foothill lots in the north often have gates and outbuildings that homeowners ask us to rekey to match the house.
Granada Hills spans the 91344 and 91394 ZIP codes.
On rekey calls in Granada Hills, we work the area off Zelzah Avenue and CA-118 (Ronald Reagan Freeway), which keeps us close to most of it.
We cover Knollwood, the Balboa Boulevard corridor and the northern foothills and the streets around them, so Granada Hills is rarely far from where the van already is.
We take Granada Hills calls across 91344 and 91394, all within our regular range.
A call close to the Santa Susana foothills is as routine for us as any other Granada Hills address.
CA-118 (Ronald Reagan Freeway) and I-5 (Golden State Freeway) frame this part of the Valley, so reaching Granada Hills from the West Hills base is straightforward.
Granada Hills is a moderate drive northeast of West Hills via the CA-118.
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. For Granada Hills jobs, that candor is part of the quote, not an afterthought.
How we keep it straight
Granada Hills residents can reach us day or night, and we will tell you straight what the job needs.
We will ask who you are and for something that ties you to the property or vehicle, every time. It is quick, and it keeps the wrong person from ever getting in.
There is no honest flat rate we can print, because two jobs that sound alike can need very different work. We price it after we see it, and you approve the figure before we lift a tool.
When you call, we give you an honest estimate of how long we will take to reach you based on where our van is and traffic, not a number designed to get you off the phone.

Questions people ask
Do I need to be there?
We need the authorized owner or resident to confirm identity and access, so yes, someone with the right to the property should be on site.
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.
