Questions

Answers before you pick up the phone

Do you offer emergency service?

Yes. Call (213) 804-8726 for lockouts and other urgent calls. Tell us where you are and what lock or car you have, and we will quote you and give an arrival time.

How much does a lockout cost?

It depends on the lock, the vehicle, and the time of day, so we quote by phone before we come. You will know the price before anyone is on the way.

Will you damage my door or car?

We use non-destructive methods whenever the lock allows. If a lock is too damaged to open cleanly, we explain the options before doing anything.

Do you need proof that I live here or own the car?

Yes. We ask for ID and some proof that you live at the address or own the vehicle. It is for your protection.

Can you make a key for my car?

In most cases, yes. We cut and program transponder keys, flip keys, and fobs. Have your make, model, and year ready when you call.

What areas do you serve?

We serve the Los Angeles area. Call or use the contact form with your address and we will confirm we can get to you.
