Choose the right service before the visit. MT Lock & Key Services travels to homes and business premises in Los Angeles for lock rekeying, replacement and repair. Tell us what changed, what the lock is doing and where service is needed so we can discuss the right next step.
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.
Describe the problem, not just the part
If you are changing who should have access, rekeying may be appropriate for compatible working locks. If the key sticks, a handle is loose or the door only locks when pushed, describe that behavior before purchasing replacement hardware. The issue could involve several parts of the door. For a business, identify any specialist hardware or existing key system; for a home, mention whether several entrances should use one key. Give the exact neighborhood and access arrangements when scheduling. Coverage, arrival arrangements and an estimate are confirmed for each request.
Before your service visit
- Tell us whether the door opens and whether a working key is available.
- List the home or business entrances included in the job.
- Ask which visit, labor and parts costs are included before approving the scope.
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.

Car lockouts, replacement keys and programming
For a car lockout, replacement key or programming request, share the exact vehicle location, year, make and model. State whether a key still starts the car and whether the vehicle is accessible in its parking space.

Questions before booking
How do I choose between lockout assistance, rekeying and car key service?
Describe the problem first. Entry assistance addresses a locked door; rekeying changes which keys operate compatible property locks; vehicle key replacement or programming depends on the car. We can discuss the appropriate request and estimate.
Is this a walk-in locksmith shop?
No. We provide mobile service at the customer’s location; contact us before arranging a visit.
Can I book both home and business lock work?
We provide residential and commercial service. Describe both properties and the work required so availability and separate access arrangements can be discussed.
What should I prepare for several home or business lock changes?
Make a door-by-door list: which doors need new keys, which locks malfunction and which keys should stop working. Note whether a working key remains and whether compatible entrances should share one key. For a business, identify who can authorize the work and when each entrance can be accessed. Discuss commercial lock replacement or rekeying before buying hardware; the options and estimate depend on the existing locks.
