Locksmith in
Camarillo

Every zip code inside the city (93010 and 93012) plus the unincorporated edges toward Santa Rosa Valley and Somis. That covers the flat valley tracts, the hillside subdivisions off the Conejo Grade, the business parks along the airport, and the older core on Ventura Boulevard. If your address shows up in a Camarillo search, we drive past it regularly.

Typical arrival runs ten to twenty-five minutes inside Camarillo, depending on where our nearest van is when you call. Morning hours run faster. The hillside communities above the Conejo Grade sometimes add a couple of minutes for the climb. We give you a live ETA on the phone before you hang up, not a generic window.

Yes. Tim's Locksmith Service holds a California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services license, number LCO 7134. The business carries general liability and is bonded. Every tech is background checked before they get a van key. We also carry the paperwork on us for any commercial customer that wants to verify before work starts.

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, cash, and Zelle. We quote before we start, not after. The number you hear on the phone is the number you pay when the job is done, minus parts if we do not end up installing something we discussed. No hidden trip fees and no surprise service charges tacked on at the end.

Standard hours run from 7 AM until 9:30 PM, seven days a week. Calls that come in outside those hours route to an emergency dispatch line for lockouts and other urgent work. Scheduled jobs like rekeys and hardware installs happen during normal hours. Emergencies get handled when they happen, including late-night house lockouts and broken car keys.

Yes, rekey the day escrow closes. You do not know who has keys from past owners, cleaners, contractors, or neighbors. Rekeying keeps the existing hardware and changes the pins inside so only your new keys work. Budget on the order of one hundred dollars for a typical four to six door house. Most jobs wrap in under an hour.

Yes. Break-in calls jump the queue. We will be out the same day to swap the damaged deadbolt, reinforce the strike plate with three-inch screws into the stud, and rekey any cylinders the old keys still fit. If the door or frame is cracked, we can often brace it enough to lock securely until a full repair.

Yes. We install August, Schlage Encode, Yale Assure, Kwikset Halo, and the other major smart lock brands on both new and existing doors. The install covers prep, alignment, strike adjustment, app pairing, and teaching you how to add users. If the existing door is out of square, we correct the fit before dropping the new hardware in.

Tier 1 response applies, so ten to twenty-five minutes in most cases. A lost house key is a rekey, not a full hardware swap. The tech comes out the same day, rekeys every exterior cylinder so the lost key stops working, and cuts you a fresh set from the van. You keep your existing deadbolts and handlesets with new pins inside.

If the old key still turns the lock, yes. You do not want an ex-roommate with a working key even if things ended fine. Rekeying is cheap and wraps in under an hour for a typical house. We can also rekey the garage service door and any shed or gate locks that shared the same key.
