Our certified locksmiths pride themselves on their dependability, and we guarantee that they will respond within 60 minutes of your call, although most arrive much faster than that. We have extensive experience in residential & commercial locksmithing, unlocking car doors, replacing keys, fixing deadbolts, and everything in between.  Whatever your situation, our team will bring a wide variety of tools to the site: our trucks are packed with everything we need to get you back inside your house or car quickly. We use top of the line gear to ensure that we don’t damage the locks that we defeat, and are fully insured against any damages. If you need a new lock installed, we carry a wide range of locks from best-in-class brands in our trucks, so that we can install it when we’re on site and you don’t have to wait. 

Since many of our service calls happen at odd hours, we’re open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For over ten years, we’ve built a reputation in San Mateo for providing affordable, prompt, & courteous locksmith services up & down the Peninsula. 

After several poor experiences with San Mateo locksmiths ourselves, we became determined to start our own business and provide the best possible service and experience for our customers. But don’t take our word for it; take a look at what our customers have to say on our reviews page
We take pride in the fact that we’ve been able to build long term relationships with many of our customers, both for commercial & residential locksmith services. After all, we’re servicing our community! We provide a wide variety of locksmith services:
Our staff has experience with all types of locks, including:
Home & residential doors
Unlocking doors at a residence is our most common service request, so we come prepared! Whether you’re having trouble with your front door’s deadbolt or tumbler lock, we’ve got you covered. We’ll be able to pick the lock quickly either manually or with an electric pick, so that you can get back inside. Once the lock is defeated, we can either make you a new key for that old lock, or replace it with a top of the line brand.

Car doors
Over the years, we’ve had many customers lock their keys in the car, so this is another common request. We have several options to defeat these locks, but it depends entirely on the make and model of the car at hand. When calling or submitting a service request form, please include the make and model of your car, so that we can bring the right tools and come prepared


Padlocks
Locked out of your gate, garage, or warehouse? Forgot the key or combination to your padlock? No problem! We can defeat both combination & key padlocks quickly, so that you can get back inside. Please indicate the type of padlock you’re dealing with when contacting us, so that we’re ready to hit the ground running.



Tumbler locks
Although you may have never heard this term before, a tumbler lock is the most common lock in the world. They are usually keyed deadbolts or doorknobs, and are relatively easy to defeat.
