This is the one place in the service area where the drive is the real constraint, and thirty-one minutes is offered as an estimate and not a boast: the lanes are narrow, they switch back, and rain or a school run will stretch it, all of which is said while the figure is being given rather than discovered later by somebody standing outside a dark house. The drive does not change the price. What the terrain changes is where a job starts. Parcels here are large, the house is usually invisible from the lane, and the first obstacle is a driveway gate on an operator or a side gate on a keyed latch, so a house lockout at $125 to $219 begins at whichever of those is in the way, and gate operators, post keypads, call boxes and the remotes that talk to them are priced at $149 to $429 rather than left to a quote. Hardware is chosen lot by lot up here, so a photograph of the door taken while you are on the phone is the quickest route to a settled figure: a stiff cylinder is cleaned and repinned at $28 to $45, a lock replacement is $125 to $315 per door, and a smart lock that gives a housekeeper or somebody feeding horses a code with an end date on it is $189 to $469. A safe left behind in a garage or a study, with a dial and no numbers anywhere in the house, is opened at $195 to $519 and usually goes back into service the same day. Rekeying one of these properties is a long list, taking in the house, the detached garage, a workshop, a barn on the older parcels and a gate on either flank, and the whole list is one figure with the $89 visit counted once instead of once per building. After a forced door, repair is $175 to $429 with the frame, the strike and the cylinder itemized on the emailed receipt, and the property is locking again before the van leaves. Calls are answered 24/7, with $50 sitting in the figure from 8pm and $85 from midnight, which is why a two in the morning call from up here is booked like any other.
Name the lane and a landmark, since numbering is thin and the house is often out of sight from the road. Say whether there is a gate at the top of the driveway and whether it opens from outside, and leave a light on at the door after dark.
Los Altos Hills sits at the far edge of the map from Moffett Park, so arrival runs about 31 minutes. Every service and every figure on this site applies there, with no charge for the distance.

FAQ
Asked from Los Altos Hills
Thirty-one minutes is the longest on your map. Why quote it at all?+
Because the alternative is telling you twenty and leaving you on a dark lane at minute twenty-five. The lanes up here are narrow and they switch back, and rain or a school run stretches them further. The number is offered as an estimate, it is the honest one, and it has no effect whatsoever on what the work costs.
How do we make sure the van finds the house?+
Name the lane and a landmark rather than relying on the number, because numbering is thin and most houses up here are invisible from the road. Say whether there is a gate at the top of the driveway and whether it opens from outside, and leave a light on at the door after dark. Those three things save more time than anything else.

Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Cupertino, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills and Alviso, 24/7, holidays included. A gate, a lobby reader, a fob, a unit door, a shop front, a car or a safe: one figure comes back with the $89 visit and the hour already inside it. Your own door and your own fob are yours to arrange; a shared opening takes a word from the manager or the HOA, and that gets sorted while you are still on the phone.
