Key Duplication in San Luis Obispo for Everyday Situations

You need a spare for home

A working house key gives you a copy to keep separately or share with someone who needs access. Tell us where you are and bring the key you want copied.

Someone else needs a copy

A household member, employee, or trusted person may need their own key. Let us know how many copies you need when you call so we understand the request before traveling to you.

You want a spare for your business

A duplicate can be useful when more than one person needs a key to the same business door. We offer mobile locksmith service, so you can request help at your location.

You have an existing car key to copy

Key duplication is for making a copy from a key you already have. If every car key is lost, ask about our separate car key replacement service; we make a new car key on site when all keys are lost.

You need help beyond a duplicate

A copy is not the same as repairing a damaged key or changing a lock. Tell us what is happening so we can identify whether key duplication or another locksmith service fits the problem.

What Our Mobile Key Duplication Service Covers

Key duplication begins with the key you want copied and the kind of lock it belongs to. When you call, describe the key and where you need service; that helps us understand the job before we come to you.

  • Copies from an existing key — Bring the key you want duplicated. Tell us whether it is for a home, business, or vehicle so we can respond to the right kind of request.
  • Home and residential key needs — We offer key duplication as part of our residential locksmith services. Explain how you plan to use the copy, such as keeping a spare or giving one to another person.
  • Business key needs — We also offer commercial locksmith services. Share whether you need a copy for your own use or for another person who needs access to the business.
  • Mobile service at your location — We come to you rather than asking you to travel to us. Give us your address or location details when you call.
  • A different solution for lost car keys — A duplicate requires an existing key to copy. When all car keys are lost, we make a new car key on site through our lost car key service.
  • Related lock services — We also offer lock rekeying, lock changes, and lock repair. Mention any lock concern along with your request so we know whether you need more than a key copy.

From Your Existing Key to a Duplicate

A clear description helps us understand whether you need a copy of a key or a different locksmith service. Keep the original key available when we arrive.

  1. Call and describe the key — Call (805) 977-6159 first. Tell us what the key is for, whether you have the original, how many copies you need, and where you are located.
  2. Confirm the service location — We serve San Luis Obispo and Central Coast towns within 30 miles. In San Luis Obispo, the typical arrival time is within 15 minutes; towns farther out get the next free locksmith.
  3. Show us the original key — Have the key you want copied ready when we reach you. If you do not have an existing key, say so during the call because a lost-key request is different from duplication.
  4. Check the copy in its intended use — Once you have the duplicate, try it in the lock it is meant for before relying on it as your only key. If the problem is with the lock rather than the copy, tell us about that separately.

What Affects the Cost of Key Duplication

The key duplication price depends on the key you need copied and the work involved. The original key and the lock or vehicle it belongs to help identify the request; tell us those details when you contact us for a quote. We do not list a set key-duplication price here.

If you need a different service, its listed price may be different: car key replacement starts at $110, and lock rekeying starts at $55 per lock. Those prices are for those services, not a quoted price for key duplication. Request a quote with the key details before arranging service.
