Mobile locksmiths have the added advantage of being able to offer a full range of services anywhere they go. When you need a mobile locksmith in San Diego, it’s not always just about a locked door. Occasionally keys break inside locks, or the customer just needs new locks altogether. There’s a lot of different kinds of keys these days for automobiles.

Mobile locksmiths in San Diego have hundreds of years of locksmithing history to reference when finding the perfect solution to your situation. One method proven effective is an automatic picker, which manipulates the tumblers in a lock until the lock can be opened. This is referred to as breaking the lock. Don’t let that name cause any concern. There’s no worry of them damaging the door, windows or any lock in the process of opening it. Locksmiths can also use a technique called “Impressioning”. The locksmith uses a blank key and inserts it into the lock that needs to be opened. When the blank is turned impressions or marks are made where the tumblers are. The locksmith then cuts or grinds the key to match these impressions. The process is repeated until the key opens the lock. It’s a much slower method than breaking the lock, but it is effective and the customer is left with a new key.

Mobile locksmiths can also make keys by taking an existing key and using it as a template. The existing key is added to the guide of a key grinder. A blank is then inserted on the grinding side of the machine. The machine follows the contours of the template to create the same exact pattern on the blank. Keeping an extra key somewhere convenient is good insurance against locking yourself out of your car or home again.

Remember to call your mobile locksmith anytime help is needed to access your locked home or car.
