Locks and homes in San Fernando

San Fernando is its own small city, two and a half square miles with its own police department, surrounded on every side by Los Angeles. Most of the houses were built before 1960, and the shopping streets are old storefronts with roll-up doors, padlocks and rear doors onto the alleys.

The homes here are mostly pre-war and post-war bungalows, many on their third or fourth set of locks, and it shows: a modern deadbolt fitted into an old door with the old bore still behind the strike, a knob set that no longer lines up because the house settled, a back door nobody has had a key to in years. The commercial side is the other half of the work. Storefronts on San Fernando Road and Maclay run on roll-up doors, padlocks and heavy rear doors, and a shop owner changing staff wants all of that on as few keys as possible.

How fast

Getting to San Fernando

Under nine miles from the base, straight down the 5 and the 210, so 15 to 25 minutes most of the day. It is one of the quickest places we reach outside the Santa Clarita Valley.

Neighborhoods

Where we work in San Fernando

Brand Boulevard, the streets around Las Palmas Park and Recreation Park, the Mission Boulevard side, and the storefronts along San Fernando Road and Maclay Avenue. Just over the line in Sylmar, Pacoima or Mission Hills? Those have their own pages and the same van.

Questions

San Fernando locksmith questions

Is San Fernando the same as the San Fernando Valley?

No, and it confuses people. The City of San Fernando is a separate small city inside the valley, with its own city hall and police. We cover both, and the arrival time here is short because it sits right beside the 5 and the 210.

Can you put my shop's front door, back door and padlocks on one key?

Usually. Roll-up door padlocks and door cylinders can often be keyed alike, and where the brands are too different we swap the odd ones out. Send photos of each lock and the keys and we quote it before coming.

My old door has holes from two earlier locks. Can you still fit a deadbolt?

Yes. We fill or cover the old bores and fit the new lock properly into sound wood, rather than stacking another one into a weakened edge, which is where many of these doors fail when somebody kicks them.
