Our San Francisco technicians treat your home, business, and vehicle the way they would treat their own — carefully, respectfully, and with an eye toward keeping you safe long after we leave.

Choosing a locksmith comes down to trust, and trust is earned by being clear and doing careful work. In San Francisco, Avant Guard Locksmith focuses on both: we tell you what we see, what your realistic choices are, and what each one involves, then we let you decide.

We also try to leave you better informed. If a small habit or a minor upgrade would prevent this from happening again in San Francisco, we will mention it — not to sell you something, but because an informed customer is a safer one.

We built Avant Guard Locksmith around the way people actually run into lock and key trouble — usually at an inconvenient time. That is why the mobile model matters so much in San Francisco: it removes the friction of getting help exactly when you need it.

Automotive locksmith in San Francisco

Locked out of the car, lost your only key, or dealing with a fob that quit? Our mobile automotive service comes to you anywhere in San Francisco to cut and program keys, replace fobs, and handle ignition trouble for most makes, models, and years.

Programming a modern key is precise work. Our mobile units carry the equipment to cut and code the correct key for your vehicle on site, which is why we can usually get you driving again without a tow.

A fob that suddenly stops working is not always dead. Sometimes it just needs a fresh battery or a new shell; other times it needs reprogramming. We can test which it is before assuming you need a full replacement.
