Locksmith services in Westlake
- Broken keys: a snapped key can be extracted from a door lock or ignition and a new key cut to replace it.
- Mailbox locks: lost mailbox key? We open and replace mailbox locks for houses and private apartment boxes.
- Key cutting: spare house, mailbox and office keys cut from an existing key or, for many locks, from the lock itself.
- Keyed-alike locks: we can rekey your front, back and garage doors so a single key opens them all.
- Master keys: landlords and businesses can have one key that opens every door while tenants or staff carry keys for their own.

Homes and buildings in Koreatown, Mid-City & Mid-Wilshire
Shops and restaurants here often want keyless locks so shift staff don't need keys. We install and program keypad hardware.
What happens when you call
For car work, the year, make and model let us check that we carry the right key blank or fob before we set off.
If the job needs a part we don't carry, we'll tell you upfront and schedule a return visit rather than leave you with a half-finished door.
If a lock has to be drilled, we explain why and give you the replacement cost before going ahead.
Security tips
- Keep a spare car key at home; replacing a lost only-key costs more than making a duplicate.
- Photograph the key code stamped on new locks and store it somewhere safe.
- Landlords should rekey between every tenancy and keep a record of who holds keys.
- After a break-in, check the strike plate and frame, not just the lock; that's usually where doors fail.
Questions from customers in Westlake
Can you make a copy of a 'do not duplicate' key?
Only for the authorised owner or manager, and some restricted keys can only be ordered from the manufacturer.
Can you open a locked bedroom or bathroom door?
Yes. Interior privacy locks are usually quick to open without damage.
Can you key a business to a master system?
Yes. We plan who needs access to which doors and rekey your locks to match.
Will you tell me the price before starting?
Always. The technician confirms it on site and asks before any change.
Do you install smart locks?
Yes. We install and set up many keypad and app-controlled locks.
