Our story

An Old-SF Shop That Knows Its Craft

JHW Locksmith Station is a neighborhood locksmith shop on Fillmore Street, the kind of place customers describe as old San Francisco, run by the same family for decades. Walk in with a lock problem or a key to copy, and you'll deal directly with someone who instantly knows what's wrong and how to fix it, then explains it in plain English.

We cut keys that work the first time, sort out stubborn locks, and handle car keys even when the fob is broken. It's fast, easy, and affordable. Most visits take just a few minutes, and we've been known to call customers back the same day to make sure a new car key is working right. That's the kind of service you don't get from a kiosk machine.

  • Run by the same family for decades
  • Rated 4.7★ on Google by real neighbors
  • In-and-out service — often under five minutes
  • Honest, reasonable shop pricing

What customers say

“We had an issue with a lock and he instantly knew EXACTLY what the problem was & how to fix it. His thorough knowledge was impressive. He also explained it to us in a way we both understood, which was appreciated. To be honest, I was kind of sad to leave his little shop. The whole setup has just a cool, welcoming neighborhood vibe. I would absolutely go there again.”

Catherine Mulvey
