Using a 91017 address?
Plenty of Monrovia residents and small businesses receive mail through a P.O. box with the 91017 ZIP code while their home, shop or office sits at a street address nearby. When you call, give the street address where the technician should go, not the P.O. box. It avoids delays and lets the dispatcher give a realistic estimate.
Mailbox and key services
People with P.O. boxes often also have private mailboxes, cluster mailboxes or locking mail slots at home. Services include:
- Mailbox lock replacement and keys for home and apartment mailboxes.
- Spare keys cut for padlocks, gates and storage units.
- Rekeying after a lost keyring, especially if it held both house and mailbox keys.
- Lockouts at home, at work or at the car.
- Car keys, transponder programming and fob replacement.
Note that the boxes inside a post office belong to the U.S. Postal Service; problems with those locks are handled by the post office counter, not a locksmith.
Small businesses with a 91017 box
Home-based and small businesses that use a 91017 box for mail still need their premises secured. A common setup is a keyed-alike system so the front door, back door and storage room share one key, with a separate restricted key for the office or cash area.

Lost keys with an address tag
If you've lost a keyring that had your name or address on it, treat it as a security issue. Rekeying the affected locks is usually quicker and cheaper than replacing them, and the old keys stop working straight away.
Home and garage security checklist
While a technician is at your address, it's worth asking about the small things that make a big difference: a Grade 1 deadbolt on the front door and on the door from the garage into the house, a reinforced strike plate with long screws, and a side-gate padlock that isn't the same as the one sold everywhere. If several keys are on your ring for doors that could share one key, ask whether they can be keyed alike. All of these are priced before any work starts, so you can pick only what makes sense for you.
Prices and specials
Every job includes the $29 service call fee plus labor and parts. Check the price list and the current coupons, including 15% off for senior citizens with a senior citizen certificate.
