How it works

The mailbox lock & key process

What to expect when you call Locks Around the Clock for mailbox lock & key.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us your mailbox setup

    Let us know whether it is a house mailbox, a shared cluster box or CBU, or a business mail room, and whether you need it opened, rekeyed, or replaced. That tells us the right lock and keys to bring.

  2. Step 2

    We come to you

    Our mobile locksmith arrives with mailbox lock stock and a key machine, and opens or changes the lock in place, so you are not carrying a mailbox door anywhere.

  3. Step 3

    We open, rekey, or replace

    We open the box if you are locked out, then rekey or replace the lock as needed and cut you working keys on the spot, including duplicates or spares if you want them.

  4. Step 4

    You get working keys

    You leave with keys that work and, if you asked us to change the lock, the assurance that any old keys no longer open your mail. Straight price, quoted up front.

Common questions

Mailbox Lock & Key: FAQs

Is there a mailbox locksmith near me in the Coachella Valley?

Yes. Locks Around the Clock is a local mailbox locksmith working out of our Palm Desert Storefront, and our mobile team comes to you across the valley, from Palm Springs and Rancho Mirage to La Quinta and Indio. If you searched 'mailbox locksmith near me,' we open, rekey, and replace mailbox locks and cut key replacements at your door. Call (760) 625-0955.

I lost my only mailbox key. Can you make a new one?

Yes. We open the mailbox, then either cut a new key or change the lock and cut fresh keys, depending on the mailbox type. Call (760) 625-0955 with your setup and we bring the right parts to make a mailbox key replacement on the spot.

How much does mailbox key replacement cost?

It depends on the mailbox and whether we are cutting a key, rekeying, or replacing the lock, so we quote you a straight price before we start. A key duplicate is the least expensive option, and a lock change costs a bit more. There are no surprise upcharges. Call (760) 625-0955 with your mailbox type for a number.

I just moved in. Should I change the mailbox lock?

It is a good idea. If you do not know who has a key to your mailbox, rekeying or replacing the lock means only you can open it. It is a small job that protects your mail, packages, and any deliveries left inside.

Can you make architectural mailbox keys?

Yes. We cut keys for architectural and decorative mailboxes, wall-mount boxes, and cluster and gang boxes where the key is copyable. If the mailbox uses a restricted or postal-controlled key, we can change the lock and cut fresh keys instead. Tell us the brand when you call.

Can you open a mailbox without the key?

In most cases, yes. We open house mailboxes, wall-mount boxes, and privately owned cluster boxes non-destructively, then rekey or replace the lock and cut you working keys. For a postal-owned USPS cluster box, the post office controls the lock and we will point you to the right steps.

Can you replace a broken mailbox lock, not just a lost key?

Yes. If the mailbox lock is jammed, worn, or broken, we replace it and cut new keys. If the mailbox door or hinge is damaged, we tell you what we can and cannot fix on-site before any work begins.

Do I need permission to change a cluster or gang mailbox lock?

For a shared cluster box owned by the post office, the postal service controls those locks. For privately owned mailboxes, HOA-owned boxes, and business mail rooms, we can change the lock for the owner or manager. Tell us your setup and we advise what is allowed.
