Where we are straight with you
Rekeying needs a cylinder that is in working order. If a lock is worn, damaged, or so old that parts are scarce, re-pinning it is a short-term fix at best, and we will tell you when a lock change is the more honest value instead. For Sherman Oaks jobs, that candor is part of the quote, not an afterthought.
How we keep it straight
If a lock or a key has let you down in Sherman Oaks, call and we will give you a straight answer on the fix.
No job starts until we have confirmed your right to the property or vehicle with ID and suitable proof. That rule holds at every hour and for every kind of lock.
Pricing depends on what the job actually needs, so we quote you on the call or on site before we touch anything. Nothing goes ahead until you have agreed to the price in writing.
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 old keys still work after a rekey?
No. That is the point. Once we re-pin the cylinder, any previous key stops opening it, and only the new key works.
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.
