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 Van Nuys 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 Van Nuys, call and we will give you a straight answer on the fix.
We check ID and proof of ownership, residence, or authorization before any lock is opened or any key is cut. It is a standard step on every call, at any hour.
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.
You get a real ETA when you call — one based on our current location and the roads that day, not a scripted "15 minutes".

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.
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.
