Locked out of your condo, need the locks rekeyed on a rental or stuck without a working car key near the harbor? Macmanuel Lock & Key Services is a locksmith serving Redondo Beach, CA from our base in Hawthorne. We help homeowners, condo owners, renters, landlords, local businesses and drivers with lockouts, rekeying, lock changes, lock repair and car keys.
Redondo Beach sits on the coast southwest of Hawthorne, a short drive down Hawthorne Boulevard or the 405 for our mobile service. North Redondo is mostly single-family homes and townhomes around Artesia and Aviation Boulevards, while South Redondo mixes older beach cottages, condos and apartment buildings near Pacific Coast Highway and Riviera Village. Around King Harbor and the pier, restaurants, shops and busy parking lots see their share of car lockouts.
Close to the ocean, salt air and moisture can make locks stiff or corroded sooner than inland, so sticky deadbolts, side gate locks and sliding patio door locks are worth having checked early. When you call us as your locksmith in Redondo Beach, we listen to the problem first, come to your address in many cases and explain your options before any work starts.
