Locks and keys. Sounds simple, right? Well, not exactly. In our 20+ years as Sacramento's go-to locksmith near me, we've seen it all - from the routine rekey jobs to the absolute "How did this even happen?" moments.
We don't just unlock doors and make keys; we solve problems. We save the day when your keys decide to go missing, protect your home from break-ins, help businesses level up their security, and yes - sometimes, we're just the friendly faces who show up to rescue someone from their own front porch in their pajamas.
So, what do we actually do? Everything locksmith-related, and we do it well. Let's break it down.
Being locked out is never part of the plan. It happens at the worst times - when you're late for work, when it's raining, or, of course, at 2 AM when everything is closed.
We're here, 24/7, to help with:
Real Story: A guy once called us at 3 AM because he locked himself out of his car… in front of his own house. He had to be at work at 4. We got there in 10 minutes, unlocked his car, and - because he had no spare - made him a new key right there in his driveway. Crisis averted.
Pro Tip: Hide a spare key in a secure place (not under the doormat - c'mon, we all know that trick). Or better yet, upgrade to a keyless entry system.

Why Call Us Instead of the Dealership?

Client Story: A restaurant owner called us in panic mode at 6 AM - their front door lock broke overnight, and the morning crew couldn't open up. We got there in 20 minutes, replaced the lock, and saved their breakfast rush.
If your locks work fine but you need new keys, rekeying is the way to go. It's faster, cheaper, and just as effective as replacing the entire lock.
Rekeying is great for:
Good to Know: Rekeying does NOT make your locks weaker - it just resets the key access.
Not all locks are created equal. If yours is old, sticking, or barely holding on, it's time to repair or replace it.
