Commercial in San Francisco — FAQ

How does commercial locksmith pricing differ from residential?▾
Commercial work applies B2B pricing tiers — typically 20-40% above retail residential for equivalent hardware work, reflecting the compliance requirements (insurance, background-checked techs, after-hours access), multi-location coordination, and relationship-based pricing. AI applies your configured commercial rates when the caller identifies as business.
Can the AI handle master-key system quotes?▾
Partially. For standard commercial master-key work (retail, office), AI can scope from intake and quote. For high-security systems (Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Assa Abloy restricted keyways), AI escalates to a specialist tech for custom quoting.
How much does commercial service cost in San Francisco?▾
Commercial service in San Francisco typically runs $180-$1200 depending on job specifics. San Francisco-specific factors that affect the quote: tesla nfc + rivian phone-as-key dominant. TheKeyBot quotes from your exact pricing sheet, not a regional average — so your rates apply.
