We work on individual and community mailboxes and on all common gate lock types, choosing hardware that stands up to Bay Area weather and daily use.

We replace and repair residential, apartment, and cluster mailbox locks, cut new mailbox keys, and install durable, weather-resistant gate locks for driveways, side yards, and pedestrian gates.
Why Albany Chooses Chida Locksmith
What sets Chida Locksmith apart in Albany is a rare combination: the response time of an emergency service and the skill of a career locksmith. Every technician is licensed, background-checked, and insured, and every van is a rolling workshop stocked with the hardware and programming gear that most jobs require. That means fewer return trips, faster resolutions, and a fair price you hear before we touch a lock.
Reliability is everything in this trade, and Chida Locksmith has built its Albany reputation on it. We give honest assessments — if a lock can be repaired or rekeyed instead of replaced, we tell you. We stand behind our parts and labor with a workmanship guarantee. And we are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, because lockouts and break-ins do not keep business hours.
