Business: The Motorcycle Locksmith, mobile motorcycle locksmith. Phone and text: (805) 429-8452 (Ventura County and Santa Barbara side).

Santa Barbara's Westside begins west of State Street and runs up against the back of the Mesa. San Andres Street is its neighborhood main street, running from Carrillo Street to Mission Street. At its northern end the Westside becomes Oak Park, where Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital on West Pueblo Street and the medical offices around it draw staff and patients from all over the South Coast.

This is a part of town where a motorcycle or scooter is everyday transport, kept at the curb or in a shared driveway behind an apartment building. When the only key is lost or wears out, the bike cannot get to work, and hauling it to a shop means finding a truck. We are a mobile locksmith for motorcycles and scooters and nothing else. We come to the address, confirm ownership with your photo ID and registration or title, and cut, program or repair on the spot.

## Hospital shifts and the Oak Park blocks

Cottage Hospital is on West Pueblo Street, with its own parking and signed curb parking on the streets around it. Staff on long shifts are the riders most likely to find a key missing at 7 in the evening or 7 in the morning.

If the bike is in hospital parking, tell us which structure or lot and what level, and let the hospital's parking or security staff know that a locksmith is coming to a vehicle you own. If it is on the street, read the sign on that block before you leave the bike there.

Oak Park itself is the city park at Alamar Avenue and Junipero Street, a short distance from the hospital. If the bike is at the park, tell us which of those streets you are nearest.

## Street parking on the Westside

Most Westside riders park on the street. Where street sweeping or time limit signs are posted, a bike that cannot be moved because the key is gone is still expected to be out of the way. A bike with the steering locked can usually be walked a short distance in a curve but not rolled straight, so it is better to have the key made before the deadline than to drag the bike.

The lower Westside is cut by Highway 101, and only some streets cross it. Carrillo Street and Mission Street both do. A nearby cross street saves us a wrong turn.

## Local notes for Westside and Oak Park riders

- Apartment parking on the Westside is often a single shared driveway. If the bike is boxed in behind cars, ask the neighbors to leave room, because we need to reach the ignition and sometimes the seat and tank.
- If your bike is stranded at the curb on a busy street such as San Andres, fold the mirrors in and leave it in gear so a bump does not roll it.
- A worn key that still works is worth copying now. Once a key is too worn to read, the replacement has to be worked out from the lock instead of the key.

## Westside and Oak Park motorcycle key FAQ

### I finished a night shift at Cottage Hospital and cannot find my motorcycle key. Can you come to the hospital parking?

Yes, provided we can get to the bike. Tell us the structure or lot and the level, check with hospital parking staff about a service vehicle, and have your photo ID and registration or title with you.

### My scooter is parked on the street and sweeping day is coming. Can the key be made in time?

Call as soon as you know the key is gone and tell us the posted sweeping day. If it cannot be done in time, move the scooter by hand to a legal space.

### I bought a used motorcycle from a neighbor and it came with one worn key. Can you make better ones?

Yes. We can cut new keys to the original depths instead of copying the wear, and add a programmed spare if the bike has an immobilizer. Bring the title or bill of sale and your ID if the registration is not yet in your name.

### Do you work on bikes kept in an apartment garage with a gate?

Yes. Have the gate code or meet us at the entrance, and let the manager know if the building requires it.
