Locksmith in Pasadena, CA.

This page covers locksmith service in Pasadena: what we handle, what happens when you call and how pricing is set.

Pasadena lies in the San Gabriel Valley about ten miles northeast of Downtown Los Angeles, at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains with the Arroyo Seco along its west side. Old Pasadena, a 21-block district along Colorado Boulevard, is the main shopping and dining area, joined by the Playhouse District, the South Lake Avenue retail strip and the three-block Paseo Colorado. The Rose Bowl sits in the Arroyo Seco. Craftsman bungalows define many residential streets; Bungalow Heaven alone holds some 800 Craftsman homes built between 1900 and 1930. The Foothill Freeway (I-210), Ventura Freeway (CA-134) and Arroyo Seco Parkway (CA-110) converge here.

We are a mobile service: a technician comes to your address in Pasadena for home, business, vehicle and emergency lock and key work. The dispatch line, (888) 492-0666, is answered around the clock. The dispatcher confirms the address and the problem and gives you an ETA before anyone is sent.

Corridors: Colorado Boulevard (Old Pasadena). If you are on one of these, tell the dispatcher the nearest cross street; curb access and parking can be tight, and that affects where the technician can stop.

Reference points: Caltech, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena City Hall, Norton Simon Museum and Gamble House. Naming the closest one helps when a street address is new or unnumbered.

Housing stock: Craftsman bungalows and other early-20th-century homes, including the Bungalow Heaven landmark district of roughly 800 Craftsman houses built 1900-1930. Older houses often carry mortise locks or worn cylinders; mention the age of the door and lock when you call so the technician brings matching parts.

Commercial districts: Old Pasadena, Playhouse District, South Lake Avenue and Paseo Colorado. For storefront and office calls, have the business name and suite number ready and tell the dispatcher whether there is a loading dock, lobby desk or after-hours entrance.

Getting to you: I-210 (built 1970) and CA-134 meet in the city; the Arroyo Seco Parkway (CA-110, opened 1940) links south to Downtown Los Angeles.

ZIP codes served in Pasadena: 91101, 91103, 91104, 91105, 91106, 91107, 91108.
