Automotive Lockouts: Locked Keys in Car


Modern cars are designed to be difficult to break into, but our technicians are trained in the latest bypass techniques. We use air wedges and long-reach tools to manipulate the interior lock mechanism without damaging your vehicle's weather stripping, paint, or airbags. Whether the engine is running or the keys are in the trunk, we can gain access safely.

Residential Lockouts: Unlock Apartment Door


Being locked out of your home is vulnerable, especially at night. Our mobile technicians carry professional picking sets and bump keys that allow us to manipulate the pins in your lock cylinder. In the rare event a lock cannot be picked (due to malfunction or high-security features), we have the tools to drill and replace the cylinder on the spot, ensuring you are secure before we leave.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • Will unlocking my car damage the door? No. We do not use "Slim Jims" which can damage internal wiring. We use soft air wedges and protective sleeves to gently create a gap for our tools, ensuring your vehicle remains in pristine condition.
  • How fast can you get here? We position our mobile units throughout East Palo Alto, CA to ensure rapid response times. For emergency lockouts, we aim to arrive as quickly as traffic allows, often within 20-30 minutes.
  • Do you offer weekend locksmith services? Yes. Lockouts don't respect the Monday-to-Friday schedule. We are available all weekend and on holidays to assist you.
  • Can you unlock a house with a keypad lock? Yes. Even keypad locks usually have a keyway override that we can pick. If the electronic mechanism has failed, we can bypass the lock to gain entry.
  • What proof of ownership do I need? To protect our community, we require proof that you reside at the property or own the vehicle. A driver’s license with a matching address or vehicle registration is standard.

East Palo Alto, CA Insights: Population,
Zip Codes, Influence, and Service Areas

East Palo Alto (abbreviated E.P.A.) is a city in San Mateo County, California, United States. As of the 2020 census, the population of East Palo Alto was 30,034. It is situated on the San Francisco Peninsula, roughly halfway between the cities of San Francisco and San Jose. To the north and east is the San Francisco Bay, to the west is the city of Menlo Park, and to the south the city of Palo Alto. Despite being called "East" Palo Alto, the city is directly north of Palo Alto. While often incorrectly assumed to be part of the city of Palo Alto, East Palo Alto has always been a separate entity since its founding as an unincorporated community and its incorporation in July 1983. It is also in San Mateo County, while Palo Alto is in Santa Clara County. The two cities are separated only by San Francisquito Creek and, largely, the Bayshore Freeway (the vast majority of East Palo Alto is northeast of the freeway, while all of the residential part of Palo Alto is southwest of the freeway). The revitalization projects in 2000, and high income high-tech professionals moving into new developments, including employees from Google and Facebook, have begun to slowly eliminate the historically wide cultural and economic differences between the two cities. East Palo Alto and Palo Alto share both telephone area codes and postal ZIP codes.
