The city is where we work

King Key is based on Post Street in Lower Nob Hill, and San Francisco is where nearly all of our work happens. We have been licensed and working here since 2019. The van that comes to you is ours, and so is the number on its side.

What people in the city call us for

House and apartment lockouts are the call we get most, by a wide margin. After that come new car keys, usually for someone who lost the only one, and then lock changes and rekeys, often for people who just moved in. The van is set up around those jobs, so most of them finish in one visit.

San Francisco doors are their own thing

A lot of the work in this city is shaped by the buildings, and it helps to know them before the door is in front of you.

✓
Victorian and Edwardian flats. Many still have their original mortise locks. They can usually be repaired and rekeyed, which keeps the door looking the way it should.
✓
Three keys for one home. A street door, a unit door and a mailbox, often on three different systems. We can bring the ones that belong to you onto fewer keys where the building allows it.
✓
Garages under the house. A garage side door is often the weakest entry into the home, and it gets less attention than the front.
✓
Hills and street parking. Car keys are made at the curb, on a slope if that is where the car is parked.
✓
The fog belt. In the Richmond and the Sunset the ocean air is hard on exterior hardware, and corroded locks are a more common call out there.

How long it takes us

In an emergency we aim to be there in 25 to 35 minutes. The far end of the Sunset at rush hour is not the same drive as Nob Hill at midnight, so we give you a real time for your address before you commit. Not urgent? Pick the time. Same day, later in the week or on the weekend, whatever works for you.

We do not split the city into zones or hand calls to whoever is closest. The same van covers all of it.

All of them. The shop is on Post Street in Lower Nob Hill, and the work is spread across the whole city, from the Marina and North Beach to the Sunset, the Excelsior and Bayview.

How long does it take you to get across the city?
