For surrounding cities, typically 20-30 minutes.Every technician we send carries CA Locksmith License #LCO4446 individually not just the company. They arrive in a marked Golden Locks, Inc. vehicle, show their license before touching your door or vehicle, and give you the price before starting any work. What we quote is what you pay.

If someone shows up, won’t give you a license number, and quotes you $35 then demands $300 that is a known scam operating in Orange County. We are not that company.
