Piru is a small unincorporated town at the east end of the Santa Clara River Valley, about seven miles east of Fillmore and thirteen miles west of Interstate 5. Highway 126 passes along its south edge, so most traffic goes by without seeing the old town center around Main Street and Center Street. David C. Cook, a publisher from Illinois, founded the town in 1887, and the Queen Anne house he built in 1890 is known as the Piru Mansion. Film crews have used the town as a location for decades.

We are a mobile locksmith for motorcycles and scooters. Riders need us in Piru for three main reasons: a key lost during a stop on the Highway 126 run between the coast and Santa Clarita, a key lost at Lake Piru up the canyon, or a bike at a house or ranch whose only key has disappeared. We cut and program keys at the bike and repair ignitions and locks. Please have photo ID and the registration or title.

Getting your location right on Highway 126

Highway 126 between Fillmore and the county line is a fast road with long gaps between turnoffs. If the bike quits or the key breaks out there, get off the highway before you do anything else. Two streets lead from the highway into Piru: Main Street at the west side of town and Center Street at the east side. Torrey Road leaves the highway opposite Main Street and heads south across the river.

Rancho Camulos, the historic ranch and museum, is on the highway east of town, and the Los Angeles County line is a few miles beyond it. Tell us which side of the county line you are on and the last sign you passed, because the valley looks much the same for miles.

  • West of town: orchards along the highway toward Fillmore.
  • In town: Main Street and Center Street.
  • North: Main Street becomes Piru Canyon Road, which leads to the lake.
  • East: Rancho Camulos, then the Los Angeles County line.

Lake Piru

Lake Piru sits in the Los Padres National Forest north of town, up Piru Canyon Road, and it is the main recreation draw in this corner of the county. The recreation area charges for entry, and its published fee schedule includes a day use rate for motorcycles. If you are stuck at the campground or the launch area, let the staff at the entrance know that a service vehicle is expected, and describe your site or lot as exactly as you can.

Film days

When a production is shooting in town, a street may be held or closed for a time and lined with equipment trucks. If your bike is inside the closed area, ask a crew member how to get a service vehicle in, and give us an alternate block where we can meet you if the street is tied up.

Local notes for Piru riders

  • Piru is a small town. Fillmore, about seven miles west, is the nearest larger town for fuel and stores.
  • On summer afternoons the east end of this valley is hot and has little shade along the highway. Wait in town, not at the roadside.
  • If your bike is on a ranch, meet us at the gate on the public road and tell us what the gate or sign looks like.

Riding roads near Piru

  • Highway 126: The valley highway from Ventura through Santa Paula and Fillmore, past Piru to Interstate 5.
  • Piru Canyon Road: Continues north from the top of Main Street up the canyon to the lake.

Dealer or mobile locksmith in Piru?

A dealership can order a key by VIN or key code, but that means waiting for the part and getting the bike to them. If the bike is stuck in Piru or you need it today, we make the key where it sits.

Piru motorcycle key FAQ

Do you come all the way out to Piru?

Yes. Piru is in Ventura County and we cover it, including Lake Piru and the stretch of Highway 126 up to the county line. It is at the far east end of the county, so allow for the drive.

I am at Lake Piru and my key fell in the water. What do you need from me?

The year, make and model of the bike, where in the recreation area it is parked, and your photo ID and registration or title. We make the new key for the bike on site, so the lost key does not need to be recovered.

My bike is just past Rancho Camulos on the 126. Is that still Ventura County?

Rancho Camulos is in Ventura County, and the Los Angeles County line is a few miles east of it. Give us the nearest sign or side road and we will work out which side you are on.
