Check every exterior door after a key change. If you are rekeying a home in Encino, include the entrances you actually use. MT Lock & Key Services provides mobile residential and commercial lock service, with options for compatible rekeying and replacement when hardware needs attention.
We come to your property. This is a mobile service, with no walk-in customer location. Need urgent help? See house and car lockouts and car key services below, or call to confirm availability.
Avoid leaving a forgotten door on the old key
Make an inventory of the exterior locks included in your request. A main door and a less-used side entrance may have different cylinders, even when their handles look alike. Mark the keys you have and note which doors are difficult to lock. Ask whether compatible locks can share a key, and discuss any entrance that should remain separate. After the work, test the agreed keys on every affected lock with the technician and check that each door latches normally. Keep the final key count with your own household or business records.
Before your service visit
- Include less-used entrances in the lock inventory.
- Tell us which doors should share a key and which should remain separate.
- Note doors that require pushing or lifting to latch.
Rekeying, replacement and other locksmith help
Rekeying changes which keys operate compatible locks; replacement changes the hardware. Ask us to assess the condition and explain the options. Explore our residential and commercial locksmith services, or read the rekeying and replacement guide.
If you cannot get inside, see lockout assistance and emergency locksmith service. For a vehicle, consult our automotive services and provide the year, make and model. Contact us to confirm availability for the location and job.
Emergency locksmith help in Encino
For urgent house or car lockout assistance, call (818) 616-7296 with your exact location and the problem. We confirm current availability and an estimated arrival time for your request.
House and property lockouts
For a house lockout, identify the entrance that is locked and tell us which other exterior doors are involved. Opening one door does not change which keys operate the other locks.
Car lockouts, replacement keys and programming
If you still have one working car key, ask about a spare before it goes missing. For a car lockout or lost-key request, share the vehicle details, location and whether any key remains available.
MT Lock & Key Services offers mobile car key replacement, spare keys and key-fob programming for most makes and models, excluding Tesla. Compatibility, parts and availability must be confirmed for the vehicle. Have identification and proof of ownership or authorization ready for property or vehicle service.
A door that will not secure may need urgent lock repair or replacement. Ask what the estimate includes for the visit, labor and any parts, and confirm the scope and price before authorizing work.
Questions before booking
Can a spare car key be made before I lose my last key?
Ask us to confirm support for the vehicle year, make and model. A working key can change the parts or programming required compared with an all-keys-lost job. Availability and the estimate must be confirmed for your vehicle.
Does rekeying one door change every lock in the house?
No. The scope needs to identify each cylinder to be changed. Include every relevant entrance in the request.
Can you help with locks at my home office too?
Describe the office door and any separate access requirement. Residential and commercial hardware may call for different options, so compatibility must be checked.
