- Genuinely open 24/7
- ID & ownership verified
- Quote before any work
- Mobile — we come to you
The van is stocked for the common jobs — key cutting, rekeying, lock changes, lockouts, and many automotive keys — so most calls finish in one visit. When a job needs a part we do not stock, we tell you up front and arrange it rather than improvise.
A mobile locksmith is the right fit for anything attached to a building or vehicle you cannot carry to a shop: an exterior door, a mounted deadbolt, a car in a lot. We bring the bench to you, which also means you watch the work happen.
How on-site service works
A mobile visit is straightforward:
- You describe the job and location, and we give you an honest arrival window for the San Fernando Valley.
- We confirm you own or are authorized for the property or vehicle, and check ID.
- We do the work at your door or curbside — cutting, rekeying, opening, or installing as needed.
- You see the finished result and get the total in writing, agreed before we began.
- If the job needs a part we do not carry, we tell you on the spot and arrange to bring it rather than guess.
- We test everything before we leave, so you are not left with a lock that half-works.
When you need this
- You need keys cut or locks rekeyed but cannot leave the house or job site.
- A lock, door, or vehicle is the thing that needs service, so it cannot come to a shop.
- You want the work done where you can watch it rather than handing over your keys.
- You are managing several doors or units and want them handled in one visit.
Honest limits
Most jobs finish in one on-site visit, but a few need a part that is not on the van. Rather than force a substitute, we tell you up front and arrange the right one, even if that means a second trip.
What affects what you pay
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.
The main cost factors are the hardware involved, how the job has to be done, the time of day, and whether parts need ordering in. We walk through those with you on the call so the written quote holds no surprises.
How we keep it honest
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.
A real person picks up overnight and on weekends, not a machine. Late-hour calls still include the standard ID and ownership checks.

Questions people ask
Do you charge just to come out to the San Fernando Valley?
We explain any service-call charge when you call, before we commit to anything, and roll it into the written total. No surprise fees appear after the fact.
Can you cut keys at my house?
Yes. The van cuts and duplicates most house, office, and many car keys on site in the San Fernando Valley, so you do not need to visit a shop.
What do you keep in the van?
Common lock hardware, key blanks, rekey pins, and the tools for lockouts and installs. For an unusual part we tell you up front and arrange it rather than guess.
Will you need to see ID?
Yes, on every mobile job. We confirm you own or are authorized for the property or vehicle before any lock is opened or key is cut.
How soon can you reach me?
We give you a real arrival window based on where the van is and traffic in the San Fernando Valley that day, rather than a fixed promise we might not keep.
