About this part of Los Angeles

Large hillside properties with gates, garages and multiple entrances often benefit from high-security cylinders and master keying. Check sliding doors for a working latch and add a secondary lock if the frame allows it.

Timing your eviction lock change

In California, a landlord regains possession through the court process, and in Los Angeles County the Sheriff carries out the final lockout. The lock change normally happens right after that, while you or your agent are on site.

If the former occupant may still hold keys to shared doors, such as a laundry room or a side gate, we can rekey those at the same visit. New keys are cut on site and tested in each lock before we hand them over.

For questions about notices, deadlines or the court process, speak with an attorney; we focus on the locks. You can also learn about rekeying and eviction lock changes on their own pages.

A short checklist for owners

Have the court paperwork and your ID together in one folder so the visit is not held up.
If there is a garage or carport storage cabinet, add it to the list of locks to change.
