Castro Valley: the longest run on this map, over the hill, and the same figures at the end of it
The town on the far side of the hills to the west: older houses on flat streets near the main road, hillside and canyon parcels above them with long driveways and gates, and shops and small offices along the center. Thirty-five minutes.

This is the far end of the map and the drive is over the hill rather than along the valley, so the honest split is between what can be scheduled and what cannot. Scheduled, the distance costs you nothing: repinning at $34–$52 per cylinder with everything after the first at the low end, replacement hardware at $132–$352 on a settled frame, a keypad at $208–$515 with the metal keyway kept live, a safe opened at $216–$570, storefront hardware at $166–$505 per opening. For an emergency, thirty-five minutes is thirty-five minutes and you hear it before you agree to it: a house lockout at $134–$255, a car lockout at $112–$208, a business lockout at $148–$276, each with the $89 call-out inside the figure and $52 or $94 added for the hour. If somebody closer can reach your door sooner at two in the morning, that is a reasonable thing to weigh, and we would rather you weighed it with the real number in front of you than found out on the sidewalk.
Say whether the job can wait for daylight, since a scheduled visit costs nothing extra for the distance while an emergency at this range means a thirty-five minute wait. Say which door stopped you, and on a canyon or hillside parcel describe what marks the driveway from the road and whether a gate crosses it.
Castro Valley sits at the edge of the map the van covers, so arrival runs about 35 minutes. Every service and price on this site applies there, with nothing added for the distance.

FAQ
Asked about Castro Valley
Is it worth waiting thirty-five minutes, or should we call somebody closer?+
For planned work, wait — the distance changes nothing on the figure and the visit happens when it suits you. For a lockout at two in the morning, weigh it with the real number in front of you: thirty-five minutes, a house lockout at $134–$255 with the $89 call-out and the $94 overnight addition already inside the total. If somebody nearer can be at your door sooner, that is a fair reason to use them. We would rather say that on the call than have you find it out on the sidewalk.

Pleasanton, whatever the hour, every day of the year. An entry in the tracts, a seized gate latch on a hill street, a pool gate, a safe left behind by the last owners, a shop door on Main, a car sitting in the Stoneridge lot — that is what decides the work, and the work decides the figure. You get that figure on this call with the $89 drive and the clock already inside it, and it is the figure on the invoice. Ninety days on the labor, in writing. The van is a few doors off Main.
