Pleasant Hill locksmith visits, where the same sixties builders crossed the line and kept going
The town immediately west, with its ranch streets off Contra Costa Boulevard and Gregory Lane, the shopping blocks, Diablo Valley College and the canal trail running through the middle of it. Twenty-three minutes from the plaza, and the hardware is largely the hardware we carry for Concord.

The tract years did not stop at the city line. A great many streets here were laid out by the same builders in the same decade, which means the front doors carry the same two bores and the same backset, and a figure can be settled from a street name here as readily as it can east of the line. Rekeying is $25 to $40 per cylinder and the count on one of these lots runs to four or five, quoted as one figure that already holds the visit. What is different is the fashion in which owners have altered them: this side of the boundary saw a lot of back walls opened up, so the number of exterior doors on an ordinary house is often five instead of three. Count the patio door, the laundry room door and the gate before you call, and the figure covers them.
The college changes the calendar. Rooms and small units let to students turn over in September and again in January, and the calls arrive in clusters: a rekey between tenants, a unit lockout on a Sunday evening, a lost key three weeks into a term. A house or unit lockout is $115 to $195, the lock is opened intact, and proof of address is asked for at the door on the same terms for a student on a lease as for an owner. Lot parking around the campus and along Contra Costa Boulevard is where the car work is, with a lockout at $95 to $179 and a fob programmed at the vehicle for $89 to $179.
The shopping blocks make up the rest. Small storefronts with aluminum frames, a service door at the rear, and closers that have been out of adjustment since the last time the door was hit by a delivery. A business lockout is $125 to $225, storefront door locks are $149 to $435 per door, and a rear exit device is $275 to $715 per door when it is truly finished rather than merely dogged. Twenty-three minutes is the estimate from the plaza and the boulevard at five is what stretches it, which is said when the figure is said. Evening from 8pm carries $40 and overnight from midnight carries $75, both inside the figure rather than added to it.
Give the cross street as well as the number, since the ranch blocks here repeat as much as they do across the line. For a rented room or a small unit, say who is booking, the tenant or the owner, because that decides who signs and who gets the written line.

FAQ
Asked from Pleasant Hill
Is there a surcharge for crossing the city line?+
No. Pleasant Hill is priced from the same list as any Concord street and the twenty-three minutes is the only difference. The $89 visit sits inside the figure once, whether the address is off Gregory Lane or off Ygnacio Valley Road. What does move a job here is the number of exterior doors, which runs higher on these lots than it looks.
The house is let to students near the college. Who books the work?+
Say on the call whether you are the tenant or the owner, because that decides who signs and who receives the written line afterwards. A tenant is let back into their own unit on proof of address; a rekey between tenants is the owner or the manager calling. Both are ordinary here in September and again in January.
How long from the plaza at five in the afternoon?+
Longer than twenty-three, and it is said as longer when you call rather than after you have been waiting. Contra Costa Boulevard at that hour is what stretches the run. The thirty-minute window in your text comes from where the van is standing at that moment, not from the average printed on this page.

Give the street, hear the figure, and the door gets opened the way it was built to be opened
Concord, Pleasant Hill, Pacheco, Clayton, Martinez and Walnut Creek, 24/7, holidays included. Say what the door is doing and one figure comes back with the $89 visit already inside it and the hour already counted. The lock is opened without damage wherever it can be, and the receipt shows what the call showed, whether the deed is in your name or the lease is.
