San Mateo County
Back from a flight, and the key is somewhere else
San Bruno sits against the airport, and a good share of our calls here start at a hotel on El Camino or a long-term parking lot: a traveler with a car and no key, or a key and a car that no longer recognizes it. The rest is the town itself, the houses up the hill and the shops at Tanforan.
Hotels, parking lots and rentals
A key left in a checked bag. A fob that died in a drawer for two weeks. A rental car locked with the keys on the seat. We come to the hotel lot or the parking garage, open the car, make a key, or wake up a fob that stopped responding, with the registration or rental paperwork as proof. For most makes we can build a key from nothing, so losing one is not a reason for a tow truck.
Hotel managers call us too, for guest room hardware and the back-of-house doors that take a beating.
Up the hill
San Bruno's neighborhoods are mostly single-family houses, and the calls are the ones a house makes: locked out with the keys inside, a lock worn past the point of turning, a rekey when the house sells. We open without damage and replace or rekey on the spot. Keys locked in a car at the Tanforan shops or the BART lot are a quick job with proper tools.
What people in San Bruno call us for
How the price works
Hotel and parking lot key jobs are priced like any car key, by make and key type, and we give a range on the phone before the van leaves.
Free on-site estimate on most jobs, and the final price is said before any work starts. You can still say no.
