How it works

The auto lock repair process

What to expect when you call Locks Around the Clock for auto lock repair.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us what the lock is doing

    Describe the problem, whether the lock is jammed, the key turns without locking, the cylinder is worn, or the trunk will not open, along with your year, make, and model.

  2. Step 2

    We come to your vehicle

    Our mobile locksmith arrives at your driveway, workplace, or parking lot with lock cylinders and the tools to diagnose the door lock at your location. No tow needed.

  3. Step 3

    We repair or replace the lock

    We determine whether the cylinder or actuator can be repaired or needs replacing, then fix or swap it and test that the door locks and unlocks the way it should.

  4. Step 4

    One key runs everything

    Where possible we match the new cylinder to your existing key, or cut a key so a single key works every door and the ignition. You get a straight price first.

Common questions

Auto Lock Repair: FAQs

How much does auto lock repair cost, and how long does it take?

It depends on your vehicle and whether the lock cylinder needs a repair or a full replacement. Most door lock repairs are done at your vehicle in under an hour. We give you a straight price over the phone once we know your year, make, and model. Call (760) 625-0955.

My key turns in the door but will not lock or unlock. Can you fix that?

Yes. That usually means a worn lock cylinder or a failed door lock actuator. We diagnose which it is at your vehicle and repair or replace the part so the door locks and unlocks again. There is no need to tow the car anywhere.

Can you repair a car door lock without towing my vehicle?

Yes. We are a mobile automotive locksmith, so we repair and replace door lock cylinders and actuators at your location across the Coachella Valley. Your car stays where it is parked.

Will I end up with two keys after a lock cylinder replacement?

Not if we can help it. Where possible we match the new cylinder to your existing key so one key still runs everything. If that is not possible, we cut a key so a single key works the doors and the ignition instead of juggling two.

Do you fix trunk locks and central locking too?

Yes. We handle trunk and tailgate lock repair along with central-locking problems where the doors will not lock or unlock together. We diagnose the cause at your vehicle and repair or replace the failed part.
