What we handle
Doors, locks and keys, sorted out properly
Oakland has every kind of door you can think of. Redwood Victorians in West Oakland. Stucco bungalows in the Laurel. Steel roll-ups along the Embarcadero. Each one fails in its own way, and each one needs a slightly different fix.
Tell the dispatcher what you are dealing with. You get a price range first. Then a locksmith comes out.

Older Oakland houses often have mortise locks set into thick doors, and the parts are not always on a hardware-store shelf. Newer condos downtown use keyed-alike cylinders and smart deadbolts. Tell the dispatcher the brand if you can read it on the lock face, and a photo by text helps even more.

FAQ
Questions people ask
How much does a locksmith visit cost in Oakland?
The service call is $29.00, plus labor that starts at the prices on our price list (for example, lockouts start at $19.00). The dispatcher gives an estimate on the phone and the locksmith confirms the final price before starting.
Which parts of Oakland do you cover?
All Oakland ZIP codes from 94601 to 94621, plus Emeryville. Each ZIP page lists the neighborhoods it covers.
Can you rekey instead of replacing my locks?
Usually, yes. Rekeying changes the pins so old keys stop working, and it costs less than new hardware when the lock is in good shape.
Do you open safes?
Safe opening is on the price list from $85.00. Opening a locked safe without the combination can damage it, so the locksmith explains the options first.
