A spare key in the right hands saves you from a lockout later.

We come to you, so there's no trip to a hardware store with an unreliable kiosk.
Why Menlo Park Chooses Bay Area Lock And Key for Key Duplication
In Menlo Park, reputation is everything, and ours is built on doing right by neighbors. We show up when we say we will, explain your options in plain language, and price fairly whether it is 2 p.m. or 2 a.m. That is why so much of our Menlo Park work comes from referrals and repeat customers.
Cheap self-service kiosks and worn cutters produce copies that stick or fail. We use professional equipment and quality blanks for clean, accurate keys. We can also duplicate transponder and car keys, and for restricted keyways we duplicate only with proper authorization to keep your key control intact.
