Expert Residential Locksmith — Bakersfield, CA
Your Local Home Locksmith in Bakersfield & Kern County
Why Bakersfield Homeowners Choose Us
The Locksmith Company 24/7 has been Bakersfield's go-to residential locksmith since 2015. With over a decade serving homeowners across Kern County — from Northwest Bakersfield and Seven Oaks to Oildale, Lamont, Arvin, and East Bakersfield — we understand what local families need: fast response, honest pricing, and a technician they can trust inside their home.
Every residential locksmith call starts with a free quote. We explain exactly what needs to be done, what it will cost (including any applicable after-hours fee), and only proceed with your approval. No bait-and-switch pricing, no unnecessary upsells.
Our mobile locksmith units carry a complete inventory of lock cylinders, deadbolts, smart lock hardware, and key blanks — which means most residential jobs are completed in a single visit, right at your front door.
When Should You Rekey vs. Replace Your Locks?
Rekeying is the right choice when your lock hardware is in good condition but you want to make old keys invalid — for example, after moving into a new home in Bakersfield, after a tenant moves out, or after losing a key. It's fast, affordable, and just as secure as replacing the entire lock.
Replacing makes sense when your hardware is worn, damaged, or you want to upgrade to a higher security grade (Grade 1 deadbolt) or a smart lock with keypad, fingerprint, or app access. We stock and install major brands including Schlage, Kwikset, and Medeco.
Smart Locks for Bakersfield Homes
Smart locks are growing rapidly in popularity across Bakersfield — and for good reason. They eliminate the need for physical keys, allow temporary access codes for guests or service workers, and can be controlled from your phone. We install and program smart locks from leading brands and ensure they're properly secured against both digital and physical attack.
Moving Into a New Bakersfield Home? Rekey Immediately.
One of the most important — and most overlooked — things new homeowners in Bakersfield should do is rekey all exterior locks. You have no way of knowing how many copies of the old keys exist or who has them. Previous owners, contractors, real estate agents, and neighbors may all hold copies. A full rekey takes less than an hour and typically costs far less than people expect.
We service all Bakersfield neighborhoods including Northwest Bakersfield, Southwest Bakersfield, Stockdale, Seven Oaks, East Bakersfield, Oildale, Rosedale, Downtown Bakersfield, and all surrounding communities.
Serving Property Managers & Landlords
We work with dozens of Bakersfield property managers and landlords to handle tenant turnovers, rekeying, lock replacements, and master key systems. Fast scheduling, bulk pricing available, and documented work for your records. Call (661) 364-7641 to set up a property management account.
