Each of these has its own San Buenaventura (Ventura) page with what is included, what to have ready and the questions people ask about that job.

1. Call (888) 492-0666 and say where you are. If anyone is hurt or at risk, call 911 first; the dispatcher will also ask whether you are safe where you are standing.
2. The dispatcher confirms the address and gives you an ETA. Any after-hours charge that applies to your address is stated before a technician is sent.
3. The technician verifies you have the right to enter. ID, lease, registration or the owner's confirmation; that check happens at 2 a.m. as it does at noon.
4. You get a written quote, then the door, vehicle or lock is opened or secured. Non-destructive entry first; drilling only when nothing else will work and only with your approval.
5. If keys were lost or stolen, the locks can be rekeyed or changed on the same visit. Standard hardware is handled on the spot; unusual hardware is secured and finished with ordered parts.
6. You receive a receipt describing what was done. Keep it for a police report or an insurance claim.

After a forced entry the lock is rarely the only thing that failed. These are the parts that typically need attention.

• Deadbolts and latches that were kicked, pried or drilled.
• Strike plates replaced with a reinforced strike and long screws into the framing.
• Door edge and jamb reinforcement where the frame split.
• Latch guards on out-swinging commercial doors that were pried.
• Any cylinder whose key was taken, rekeyed so the stolen key stops working.
