Legal
Terms of service
Updated October 25, 2026
These terms apply when you use this website, call us, or have Local Locksmith CA Inc ("we") do work for you.
Nothing on this site is a binding offer
Descriptions of services on this website are general information. A price and the scope of work are agreed only at the job, before work begins.
How quoting works
On most jobs the estimate is free and happens on site. If your job carries a service call fee, we tell you during the call, before the van leaves. A range given on the phone is an estimate, not a price. The final price is stated before any work starts, and you may decline it. If you decline, you owe only what you agreed to on the phone, if anything.
Proof of ownership
We open homes, businesses and vehicles only for people who show they are entitled to access them. We may refuse or stop a job if proof is not provided.
Damage
We open locks without damage whenever possible. If a lock must be drilled or a part destroyed to gain entry, we explain why and proceed only with your consent. We are not liable for damage that was there before we arrived, worn or defective hardware that fails during normal handling, or damage resulting from information you gave us that was inaccurate.
Warranty
Our workmanship is guaranteed for six months from the day of the job. If something we made or installed fails during that time because of our work, we return and fix it at no charge, as many times as needed. The guarantee does not cover damage or wear caused after the job, such as a key exposed to water or a lock that was forced, misuse, or hardware we did not supply or install. A visit for anything outside the guarantee is a regular paid call. New parts also carry the manufacturer's warranty.
Payment
Payment is due when the work is done, by cash, card or check. Every receipt is itemized and shows license LCO 7283.
Liability
To the extent the law allows, what we owe for any single job is capped at the price you paid for it.
Cancellation
You can cancel at any time before work starts. If you cancel after the technician is on the way and your job carried a service call fee you agreed to, that fee may apply.
Complaints
Tell us first at (415) 964-3469 or locallocksmithsca@gmail.com. You can also contact the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services, which licenses locksmith companies.
