About Us

Kwik Key Lock & Safe Co. opened its doors in Palo Alto 1970. Started by Joe S, a retired police officer. The first two employees were teenaged brothers: Alan and Gary. Both of them are still with the company: Alan as owner, Gary as the longest standing employee.

After studying business finance in college, Alan returned to the area and bought Kwik Key Lock & Safe in 1982. The company continued to flourish and was incorporated in 1985. Combining his college background with 30 years of actual locksmithing Alan has built a reputation for professionalism and skilled service.

Integrity, reliability, great service and competitive prices are the way we do business. Add to that a handful of nice guys who really know locksmithing and you have our formula for success. We now have 5 vans. Maybe you have seen them; light blue with the distinctive logo of ‘Super Key’ man in the red and blue suit.

The first location was in Palo Alto on Alma Street. Over the next 30 years Kwik Key Lock moved five times, growing in size each time. We are settled (with long-term plans of staying put) on the corner of Clark and El Camino, in Mountain View, CA.
