UTS Locksmith Fontana isn't here to do the bare minimum and bounce. We're here to actually solve problems, offer real solutions, and leave people feeling like they made the right call. Whether you're locked out of your apartment at dusk, need your business rekeyed after an employee leaves, or your key fob just decided to die in a Target parking lot - we're the crew you want showing up.
We've been the locksmith Fontana turns to for over 20 years. Why? Because we know our stuff, we care about doing it right, and we treat every job like it matters. Because it does. Here's what we offer, how we do it, and why folks across Fontana keep saving our number.
Lost your keys? Locked out of your car, home, or office? It happens to everyone. What matters is how fast you can fix it. Our 24 hour locksmith service is always active. Rain or shine, weekend or weekday, we're out there unlocking doors and calming people down.
Just last week, a local teacher locked her keys in her trunk while loading school supplies. She was stressed, late, and parked on a slope. We were there in 18 minutes. Trunk open, keys in hand, no damage done. That's what we mean when we say fast and professional.
Tip: Don't use a hanger. It's not a hack - it's a way to scratch your paint and jam your door frame. Call someone with the right tools.
We're not just about opening car doors. We handle everything from transponder key programming to ignition repairs and broken key extraction. If your key isn't working or your fob is acting up, we can reprogram, replace, or duplicate it without sending you back to the dealership.
Need a replacement key for your Honda, Ford, BMW, or Dodge? We've got you. One of our clients - a rideshare driver in North Fontana - had their key fob short out mid-shift. We met them outside a gas station, programmed a new fob on-site, and they were back on the road in under an hour. No towing. No downtime.
Pro tip: Keep a backup key with a family member or in a coded lockbox. You don't want to be stranded at night Googling "automotive locksmith near me" on 2% battery.
Home should feel secure. Whether you just moved in, had a break-in, or want better locks, we're here to make that happen. We handle rekeying, deadbolt installation, smart locks, mailbox locks, and sliding door security upgrades. All clean installs. All explained in plain English.
We once helped a couple on the south side who were dealing with a sticky backdoor lock that wouldn't close right. It turned out their frame had shifted, and the deadbolt didn't fully align. We adjusted the frame, swapped the lock, and made sure it latched cleanly every time. They sent us a thank-you card with a drawing their kid made. It's on our shop wall now.
Question we hear a lot: Should I rekey or replace the locks? Answer - if the locks still work and aren't damaged, rekeying is usually the faster and more cost-effective way to go. We'll help you decide.
We work with businesses across Fontana - retail, offices, warehouses, you name it. From panic bars and access control to master key systems and emergency rekeys, we build custom solutions for real-world business needs.
One of our regular clients is a property manager overseeing multiple small offices. We set up a master key system that lets her access everything, while tenants have individual keys. Clean, simple, and secure. If someone leaves or loses a key, we rekey fast without changing every single lock.
Tip for business owners: Document who has which keys. We've seen too many businesses forget which ex-employee has access until something goes missing.
Need copies of your house key? Lost the only key to your side gate? Want to replace a lock that keeps jamming? We handle all that too. Our mobile units are stocked with the right machines and parts to cut keys, match cylinders, and fix locks on the spot.
We even work on older locks. A retired couple in West Fontana called us to help with a vintage front door lock they didn't want to replace. We disassembled it, cleaned the pins, replaced the springs, and gave it a fresh key - all without swapping the whole thing. Still works like new.
Lots of people can open a lock. But not everyone explains what they're doing, offers options, shows up when they say they will, or charges fairly. We do. And we treat every job - even the quick ones - like it matters, because it does.
Our locksmiths are trained, background-checked, and experienced. They're also normal humans who can talk to you without sounding like robots. They explain things clearly, offer honest advice, and never push services you don't need.
And yeah, we actually answer our phones. No call centers. No shady subcontractors. When you call UTS Locksmith Fontana, you get someone who knows the area, the streets, the vibe - and how to get you back on track fast.
"I locked myself out after working a double and was near tears. Your tech showed up in 15 minutes, got me in fast, and didn't make me feel dumb about it. You guys rock." - Andrea, Fontana CA
"UTS came to our shop at 7am to fix a broken door lock before we opened. No drama, no upsell, just solid work." - Tim, business owner on Foothill Blvd
"We called around and most places didn't even answer. You guys did, and you actually showed up. That alone makes you worth recommending." - Darrell, homeowner
Do you really operate 24/7? Yep. All day. Every day. We're used to late-night calls and early-morning emergencies.
Can you make a new car key without the original? Absolutely. We've got the tools and tech to generate keys from scratch, even for modern fobs.
Are your locksmiths licensed? Of course. Our team is trained, licensed, insured, and experienced.
How fast can you get here? It depends on where you are, but in most parts of Fontana we can get there within 15-30 minutes.
UTS Locksmith Fontana isn't here to impress with gimmicks. We show up, do it right, and leave you with peace of mind. Whether you need an automotive locksmith, a residential security upgrade, or a quick emergency locksmith service, we're ready. We've been doing this a long time, and we're just getting better.
