Homes and buildings in South Los Angeles
Security doors and gates are common in front of homes here, so a lockout may involve two locks rather than one. We can open and rekey both.
What happens when you call
When you call, tell us your address, what's locked or broken and, for cars, the make, model and year. We'll quote a price range and give an honest arrival estimate.
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.
Our technician confirms the price on site before starting. If something unexpected turns up once the lock is opened, we explain it and ask before continuing.
Security tips
- Save a vetted locksmith's number in your phone before you ever need it.
- Don't hide a spare under the mat or in a planter; leave it with a trusted neighbor instead.
- After a break-in, check the strike plate and frame, not just the lock; that's usually where doors fail.
- Keypad locks let you share a code with a dog walker or cleaner and delete it later.
Questions from customers in Watts & Willowbrook
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.
Do you rekey for new homeowners?
Yes. It's one of our most common jobs and usually done in a single visit.
How do I know you're a real locksmith?
Ask for the business name and a quote on the phone; our technicians show ID on arrival.
How much does a locksmith charge?
It depends on the job, the hardware and the time of day. Call with the details and we'll quote before any work begins.
Do you replace car ignitions?
We repair and replace many ignition switches and cylinders.
