Locksmith services in Boyle Heights
- High-security cylinders: restricted keys that can't be copied at a hardware store, for homes and offices.
- Car keys: we cut regular and laser keys and program many transponder keys and remote fobs on site.
- Rekeying: if keys have been lost or you've just moved in, we change the pins so old keys stop working, keeping your existing hardware.
- Key cutting: spare house, mailbox and office keys cut from an existing key or, for many locks, from the lock itself.
- Mailbox locks: lost mailbox key? We open and replace mailbox locks for houses and private apartment boxes.

Homes and buildings in East LA & Boyle Heights
Family-owned shops and restaurants often ask for rekeying after staff changes. It's quicker and cheaper than replacing locks.
What happens when you call
Most jobs are finished in a single visit because our vans carry key blanks, cutting machines, programming tools and common locks.
Our technicians carry identification and will tell you their name when they arrive.
For lockouts we check ID or proof of residence. If your ID is inside, we can usually confirm it once the door is open.
Security tips
- Replace a cheap knob lock on an exterior door with a deadbolt; knob locks alone are easy to bypass.
- Rekey whenever a key goes missing, not just when you move.
- Write down your car's key code or VIN and keep it somewhere safe; it makes a replacement key easier.
- A door closer on a shared building entry stops it being left ajar.
