Los Gatos / Locksmith
Find the work you need.
Start with what’s happening. We’ll help you find the right kind of work, from a stubborn front door to a missing car key.
Emergency
Emergency & Lockouts
Home Lockout Service
You are standing outside your own place — key lost, left inside, or turning without catching — and nothing you try moves the bolt.
Business Lockout Service
Staff are waiting on the pavement, the shop cannot trade, and the one keyholder is unreachable or the key no longer turns.
Car Lockout Service
The vehicle is locked and the keys are inside or missing. Explain where it is parked and who can authorize access.
Broken Key Extraction
The key turned, something gave, and now half of it is in your hand and the other half is inside the lock.
Break-In Damage Lock Repair
Someone forced the entry — the strike is torn, the bolt is bent, the cylinder is punched through — and the place will not secure tonight.
Seized & Jammed Lock Opening
The key enters but will not turn, or turns without moving the bolt. The cause has not yet been assessed.
Lost-Key Rekeying
Your keys are gone — dropped, taken, or simply lost — and every lock they open is now a question mark.
Residential
Home Locks & Rekeying
Lock Rekeying
New home, departed flatmate, contractor with a copy — the locks are fine, but you no longer know who holds keys to them.
Deadbolt Installation
The entry has a latch and you want to discuss adding or replacing a deadbolt compatible with the door and frame.
Lock Replacement & Upgrade
The lock is worn past saving, the finish is corroded through, or the hardware was never good enough for a street entry in the first place.
Vintage Mortise Lock Service
The original case in a Victorian or Edwardian entry has gone stiff, lost its spring, or swallowed its last working key decades ago.
Smart Lock Installation
You want keyless entry, codes for guests or cleaners, and a log of who came in — without the lock becoming the least reliable thing you own.
Gate & Building Entry Locks
The street gate or shared building entry drags, slams without latching, or runs on a lock every past tenant still has a key to.
Mailbox Lock Replacement
The mailbox key is lost, the tenant changed, or the little lock has been pried once too often.
Auto
Car Keys & Vehicle Locks
Car Key Replacement
The vehicle key is missing or no longer works. Have the make, model, year and any remaining keys ready for assessment.
Spare Car Key Duplication
Only one working vehicle key remains and you want a compatible spare before it is lost or damaged.
Key Fob Programming
The remote stopped talking to the car, a replacement fob arrived unprogrammed, or a used-car purchase came with one fob and a shrug.
Transponder Key Programming
The key turns but the engine does not start. The cause has not been confirmed; you want to check whether key recognition is involved.
Ignition Lock Repair
The key fights you in the ignition — grinding, sticking, needing a jiggle that gets longer every month — or it stopped turning entirely.
Vehicle Lock Repair
A vehicle lock has stopped cooperating — the key works on one side of the car only, or the boot lock spins without opening.
Motorcycle & Scooter Keys
The bike's only key is lost or snapped, and the seat, tank cap and steering lock each have an opinion about it.
Business
Commercial & Safes
Commercial Rekeying
Staff turnover, a lost master, or a lease change has left the business unsure exactly who can open it tonight.
Master Key System Design
The key ring has become the org chart — managers carry a fistful, staff share copies, and nobody can say what opens what.
Access Control Installation
Keys are the problem: ex-staff copies floating around, no record of entries, and one shared key for a space that deserves an audit trail.
Panic & Exit Hardware
The exit route runs through hardware that sticks, alarms nobody, or was never rated for the crowd the room can hold.
Commercial-Grade Lock Replacement
Storefront hardware is failing at closing time — the pivot sags, the hookbolt misses its keeper, or the cylinder has been forced once already.
Safe Opening & Combination Change
The safe will not open — combination lost with a departed manager, electronic keypad dead, or a dial that spins past its numbers.
Safe Installation & Servicing
There is cash, stock or paperwork that needs to survive a burglary or a fire, and it is currently in a drawer.
