San Ysidro is the southernmost community in the City of San Diego, pressed against the Mexico border where I-5 and I-805 end at the San Ysidro Port of Entry. A lot of bikes here are parked by riders who then walk into Tijuana: in the paid lots along Camino de la Plaza and East San Ysidro Boulevard, outside Las Americas Premium Outlets, or near the San Ysidro Transit Center. We are a mobile locksmith for motorcycles and scooters, and we come to the bike on the US side.

The trouble with losing a key here is that it may have been lost in another country. If you come back through the pedestrian crossing without it, the bike is still sitting in a paid lot. You do not need to tow it north to a dealer in Chula Vista or National City. Bring photo ID and the registration or title to the bike and we make a new key in the lot.

## The border lots and crossings

There are two pedestrian crossings. PedEast is next to the San Ysidro Transit Center at the south end of East San Ysidro Boulevard, where the Blue Line trolley ends. PedWest is at the end of Virginia Avenue beside the Las Americas outlet mall. PedWest's hours have been limited at times, so check that it is open before you count on it for the walk back.

Camino de la Plaza is the last US exit on both I-5 and I-805. Private paid lots line Camino de la Plaza near PedWest, and more sit near the trolley station on San Ysidro Boulevard, a short walk from PedEast. The outlet mall's own lot is for shoppers.

Do not plan on leaving a bike at the transit center itself. Trolley stations a stop or two north have parking for transit riders, with posted time limits.

## Local notes for San Ysidro riders

- Before you walk across, photograph the lot name, the row and your receipt. Many of the border lots look alike, and the lot name is the first thing we need to find the bike.
- We work on the California side only, so the bike has to be on the US side. If the bike is in Tijuana, it needs to come back through the port of entry before we can help.
- Keep your registration somewhere other than under a locked seat when you cross on foot. We need it with your photo ID to make a key, and a paper copy in your wallet means you are not locked out of your own paperwork.

## San Ysidro motorcycle key FAQ

### I parked my motorcycle in a border lot, walked into Tijuana and lost the key there. What now?

Walk back through whichever pedestrian crossing is open and call us from the lot. We make a replacement key at the bike once you show photo ID and the registration or title. Tell us the lot name and the street it is on.

### Can you come into Mexico to make a key for my bike?

No. Our service area is on the California side only. Once the bike is back on the US side, in San Ysidro or anywhere else in San Diego County, we can come to it.

### My scooter is parked at the Beyer Boulevard trolley station and the key broke in the ignition. Can you fix it there?

Yes. We extract the broken piece and cut a new key where the scooter is parked, and repair the ignition if it is damaged. Station parking is time limited, so it is best not to leave it.
