Lock change in Commerce: count doors before anyone drives
ZIP 90040 is industrial parks, rail-adjacent yards, and the Citadel. A house-style pin is often the wrong mental model.
Name the business park, dock or suite, who can authorize entry, and whether this is a roll-up, office cylinder, or vehicle. Count cylinders, not rooms. Note if the frame is damaged or you want keyed-alike hardware.
What happens next
- You submit your ZIP and a short note about what happened.
- LockUnlocked routes the request to participating locksmiths who cover that ZIP.
- If a locksmith is available and accepts, they call to confirm timing and price before dispatch. You pay the locksmith directly for completed work.

Describe the hardware; an available Commerce locksmith may call after accepting the lock-change request.

Quick answers for Commerce
Should I change the locks or just rekey them in Commerce? + −
If the hardware is fine and you only want new keys (after a move-out or a lost key), rekeying is cheaper. Change the lock when it is worn, damaged, low-security, or you want a different type like a deadbolt or smart lock.
Can all my new locks use one key in Commerce? + −
Usually yes — ask for "keyed alike" and the locksmith sets every new cylinder to a single key, as long as the hardware is compatible.
How many doors can be done in one lock-change visit in Commerce? + −
Most homes have two to four exterior doors. Count them before you submit so the locksmith brings enough matching hardware for the whole job.
What should I tell the locksmith in Commerce? + −
Cross streets, gate or intercom codes, parking rules, and car vs home. For vehicles, include color, make, and where it is parked. ZIP 90040 is commonly routed from Commerce.

What is lock change?
A lock change replaces the lock hardware (and often cylinders) with new units — used when parts are worn, you want upgraded security, or cylinders cannot be rekeyed economically.
