San Francisco is one of our regulars.

San Francisco is the busiest piece of our service area outside Brisbane. We focus on the southeast quadrant of the city — the Bayview, Visitacion Valley, Excelsior, Portola, and the SOMA / Mission corridors — partly because that's where Brisbane sits relative to the city, and partly because that's where a lot of the commercial and residential work we're best at lives.

Commercially we do regular work in SOMA office buildings, Mission Street businesses, and warehouse and light-industrial spaces in Bayview and along Third Street. Residentially we do a lot of rekeys, deadbolt upgrades, and smart-lock installs in Visitacion Valley, the Excelsior, Bernal Heights, and Portola. We don't usually work north of Market — we'll be honest if it's not the best fit and refer you to someone closer.

Locked myself out of the office on a Sunday morning at Sierra Point. They picked up, were straightforward about timing, and got me back in without damaging the door. Will keep them on speed dial.

We had them set up a master key system across two floors of our office on the Genentech corridor. Thorough, professional, and the documentation they left us is exactly what facilities asked for.

Brand new house in Daly City. Wanted everything rekeyed and a smart lock installed on the front door. They walked me through options honestly — never pushed me into the most expensive thing.

San Francisco FAQ

Straight answers for San Francisco.

Questions we get a lot from San Francisco callers. If yours isn't here, call — we'd rather have a quick conversation than guess wrong.

What should I do if I'm locked out of my car late at night?
Get to a well-lit area or a building lobby, call us, and stay near your car. Most car lockouts are non-destructive — we won't break a window unless absolutely needed and only after explicit confirmation from you.
What does "non-destructive entry" mean?
It means we open most locks without damaging them. We use picks, bypass tools, and air wedges first. We only drill or break a lock as a last resort — and only with your explicit permission.
Are you available for emergencies outside listed hours?
Our listed hours are when we guarantee response. Outside those hours we still take emergency calls and respond when we can. Call us — we'll be honest about timing the moment you call.
Do you work in SOMA office buildings?
Yes. SOMA is a regular destination for us — office tenants, retail, mixed-use buildings. Master keying, access control, panic hardware, and tenant rekey programs.
I live in Visitacion Valley. Can you rekey my home?
Yes — Visitacion Valley is the closest SF neighborhood to our Brisbane shop. Rekeys, lock upgrades, and broken-key extractions are routine for us there.
Can you handle a Mission District multi-unit building?
Yes. We work with property managers on tenant turnover rekeys, mailbox locks, master key hierarchies, and the occasional emergency lockout. Set up an account with us.
Do you go up to North Beach or the Marina?
Honestly, that's at the edge of our service area. We can — but a closer shop is often a better fit for fast turnaround. We'd rather refer you to the right person than overpromise.
I just bought a Bernal Heights or Portola home. Should I rekey?
Yes — standard recommendation regardless of neighborhood. We'll rekey every cylinder to a new single key in one visit and check that your deadbolts and strike plates are actually doing their job.
Do you work on warehouses and light-industrial spaces in Bayview?
Yes — regularly. Roll-up door padlocks, high-security cylinders, master key systems for shared spaces. Call us to walk the building.
I locked myself out at a SOMA bar at 11 PM. Can you come?
If it's during our open hours, yes — we're open until midnight Sunday through Thursday. Outside hours, call and we'll be honest about whether we can get there.
Can you program car keys for an SF address?
Yes, for most makes and models. Call with your year, make, and model so we can confirm before heading out. Bring your title or registration.
How does San Francisco's fog affect smart locks?
Less than Pacifica, more than inland. We'll spec a lock with proper weather sealing if you're in the avenues or anywhere with heavy fog exposure.
