Where we are straight with you
This is where honesty matters: we do not make keys for every vehicle. Some newer, luxury, and European models require dealer-only equipment or a tow to the dealer, and certain all-keys-lost jobs are beyond mobile programming. We check your year, make, and model before booking and tell you plainly when the dealer is your only route. Around Thousand Oaks, we would rather tell you this up front than surprise you on site.
How we keep it straight
Anywhere in Thousand Oaks, pick up the phone and we will walk through it before anything is committed.
Identification and proof of ownership or authorization come first. It is not about doubting you; it is about a locksmith only ever opening doors for the people entitled to them.
Rather than guess at a price online, we look at the lock or vehicle, explain your options, and give you the total up front. You approve it in writing before we start.
Our arrival estimate is tied to our actual location and the roads that day. If something changes it, we tell you instead of leaving you guessing.
