Emergency Locksmith Services You Can Rely On
Lockouts and lock failures do not wait for business hours. Alameda Locksmiths runs a 24 hour emergency dispatch for the island of Alameda and the surrounding East Bay, so whether you are standing outside your front door at two in the morning, locked out of your car in a parking garage or facing a broken storefront lock before opening time, a technician is on the way within minutes of your call.
Emergency work covers house and apartment lockouts, car and trunk lockouts, office and storefront lockouts, keys broken off inside locks and ignitions, safe lockouts, lost keys that need to be replaced on the spot, and securing a property after a break-in. Our technicians open doors without damage whenever possible, so you keep your existing locks and keys, and they carry replacement hardware for the times a lock is beyond repair.
After a burglary or attempted break-in, the priority is making the property secure again the same night. We repair or replace damaged locks, reinforce strike plates and door frames, rekey every entry so any stolen keys stop working, and board or brace damaged doors until permanent repairs are made. You get an itemized invoice for your insurance claim.
Because we are based on the island, response times to Alameda addresses are short at any hour, and we reach Oakland, San Leandro, Emeryville and Berkeley quickly through the bridges and tubes. Every emergency call is quoted before dispatch, and we verify identity and the right to enter before opening any door or vehicle.
