Here at UTS Locksmith Cerritos, we don't just unlock doors. We unlock peace of mind. With over two decades of experience, we've helped thousands of people across Cerritos, Lakewood, Long Beach, and surrounding towns get back into their homes, cars, and businesses without drama, damage, or delay.
Our locksmith services go way beyond "just showing up with tools". We solve real-world problems with a calm head, skilled hands, and a serious focus on keeping your property secure. Whether it's 2pm or 3am, we bring the same energy: fast, friendly, and fully prepared.
Locked out? Just moved in? Weird sound coming from your deadbolt? We handle all of it. From simple rekeys to full hardware upgrades, we help Cerritos homeowners feel safe and secure.
Client Story: A mom in Cerritos called us last month after locking herself and her toddler out on the porch. Groceries inside. Diaper bag inside. Sun going down. We got there in under 20 minutes, unlocked the door without any damage, and even helped carry the bags back in. She said, "You guys showed up faster than my husband ever has with dinner". Noted.
There's never a "good" time to be locked out of your car. But there's definitely a good locksmith to call when it happens. Whether you lost your keys, snapped them in the ignition, or your fob just decided to stop working, we've got you.
Real Example: A client in Lakewood called us after dropping his only car key into a sewer grate (yup, it happens). We met him at his car, cut and programmed a new key, and got him rolling again in under an hour. He joked, "Now I just need someone to fish out my AirPods". Sorry, not our department.
Business security is serious. We get calls from shop owners, property managers, warehouse operators, and clinic directors who need fast, expert help. Our commercial locksmith services are built to keep your doors open when you want them to be - and closed tight when you don't.
From the Field: A small business owner in Cerritos was having daily problems with a failing front door lock. We replaced it with a Mul T Lock cylinder and created a new key system that made entry easier for staff while keeping things secure after hours. No more stuck keys. No more 7am panic calls.
Locked out of your house at midnight? Key broke in the ignition on your lunch break? Locked the back door before realizing your baby is inside? These are all real situations we've handled with calm heads and quick solutions.
We Never Sleep: A Cerritos couple returned from vacation only to realize their house sitter lost the key. They landed at 1:30am. We met them by 2:10am, rekeyed the front and back doors, and left them with two brand new keys and peace of mind before sunrise.
If you're in Cerritos or one of the nearby towns (Lakewood, Norwalk, Long Beach, Bellflower, etc.), we can usually get to you in 15-30 minutes. We dispatch based on real-time GPS - not guesses or vague "windows".
Yes. Every locksmith on our team is licensed, insured, background-checked, and has hands-on training. We don't subcontract mystery guys with bolt cutters. We send certified professionals with actual solutions.
Almost never. In fact, 95% of our lockouts are non-destructive. We use professional techniques that get the job done without harming your hardware. If a drill is ever needed (which is rare), we'll explain why and what your options are first.
Absolutely. We install, program, and troubleshoot everything from Ring to August to Mul T Lock digital systems. Need help figuring out which smart lock is right for your door? We'll guide you through it.
We've been doing this for over 20 years. We're from here. We show up. We explain things. We answer your calls. We quote fair prices. And we'll never upsell you something you don't need. Most of our business comes from repeat customers and local referrals. That's the best proof we can offer.
A retired couple in Cerritos called us after a break-in attempt left their back door lock shredded. The husband told us, "We're just rattled. We don't feel safe sleeping here tonight". We came out that evening, replaced both back locks with high-security cylinders, installed a smart lock with audit trail access, and gave them two remotes and a simple app walkthrough.
The next morning, they texted us: "We slept better than we have all week. Thank you."
That's why we do this.
If you're stuck, locked out, frustrated, or just want to upgrade your locks, call us. We'll walk you through what you need, answer your questions without pressure, and show up ready to fix the problem.
