About Us
About Lock Masters
An Automotive Locksmith Company Focused Entirely on Vehicles
Lock Masters is a Fresno-based automotive locksmith company focused exclusively on vehicle keys, remotes, ignitions, lockouts, and compatible vehicle computer systems.
Since the business began in 2012, automotive security has changed considerably. Traditional metal keys now share the road with transponder keys, smart keys, proximity remotes, and vehicle systems that require electronic communication before the engine will start.
By keeping our work focused on vehicles, we can approach your situation according to the key system your vehicle actually uses—not only the first symptom you notice. You do not need to determine whether the problem involves the key, remote, ignition, or another supported system before contacting us. That is where our assessment begins.
From our location on East McKinley Avenue, we provide mobile and in-shop automotive locksmith assistance to drivers throughout Fresno and surrounding areas.
OUR BACKGROUND
Experience That Has Grown Alongside Automotive Technology
Lock Masters has been in business since 2012, supported by more than 16 years of combined leadership experience in the automotive locksmith industry.
During that time, vehicle keys have become increasingly connected to immobilizers, remotes, ignitions, and onboard computer systems. Our experience has developed alongside that technology—from traditional vehicle keys to many transponder, smart-key, and push-start systems.
For you, that means the conversation does not have to begin with a technical diagnosis. We start with your vehicle’s year, make, and model, what happened, and what the key or vehicle is currently doing. From there, we can identify the system involved and determine what type of assistance the situation may require.
HOW WE WORK
A More Focused Approach to Automotive Locksmith Work
Vehicle key trouble can interrupt your plans without giving you much time to understand what went wrong. Our role is to make the next step easier to understand.
We begin by assessing the vehicle and its key system before determining an appropriate course of action. Depending on the situation, that may involve duplicating or replacing a key, programming a compatible remote, examining a mechanical ignition concern, or checking how the key communicates with the vehicle.
A few principles shape the way we assist you:
You receive help from a company dedicated specifically to automotive locksmith work rather than one dividing its attention among residential, commercial, and vehicle services.
- Mobile assistance is available for many situations that can be handled at your vehicle’s location.
- You do not need to understand the technical details before calling. We explain what we identify and what the vehicle may need.
- We work with traditional keys as well as many transponder, remote, smart-key, and push-start systems.
- Our recommendations remain connected to your particular vehicle and the issue identified during assessment.
This vehicle-specific approach helps give you a clearer path forward without making an already disruptive key problem feel unnecessarily complicated.

Which vehicle key systems does Lock Masters work with?
