Very impressed. Quick callback. Fast rekeying of my front door. Reasonable pricing on a weekend. Matt was friendly and polite and wasn't worried about having to make sure my cats didn't escape out the door. I'll be using these guys again. read more

They were available as soon as I needed them when I locked my keys out of my car. They were communicative and efficient. My only issue is when I asked for a quote on the phone after explaining where I was and what I needed they gave me a range of $74 to $94 which was fine, I needed them and that was in line with the $95 the other place quoted. The receipt specified $74 for the unlock and $20 for the on site call. They knew it would be an onsite call and exactly where I was in advance before I asked for the quote so giving me the range knowing full well it would be the full $94 seems like they were trying to make it sound cheaper than they knew it would be. Now I know how the pricing works for any future needs. I would call again. read more

I recently had my key stolen during a break in and Josh showed up asap to fix me up with a new key. I highly recommend this company!

Super quick response! I was able to get my door locks changed same day for a very affordable price. I would definitely recommend 512 Austin Locksmith for those needing locksmith and key services for their home. read more

Yehuda lavie was our technician. He was quick to respond, efficient, and professional. I called 5 locksmith companies and 512 Locksmith was the first out of only two to respond. My employees were locked out and I needed quick service. Yehuda also arrived prior to the timeline given. He saved the day for our many families here at Hippo Learning Station. I hope we will not need service again, but they would be the first on my list to call if the situation would arise. The cost was very reasonable. read more

This guys are terrific, I called them during the cold front at 11pm at 25 degrees to come and help me to unlock my condo. The technician showed up within 20 minutes and got me in without a problem for a fair price. I would recommend them. read more

Convenient, walk-in service, friendly and welcoming! I highly recommend this business!

Classic bait and switch. I sent in a Yelp request to copy a car key and got a fast reply with a price 10% less than others and available on short notice (this is the good part). However, when Alex the tech arrived he said the cost would be 70% higher, and acted like I was lying about the price I was quoted. I showed him our conversation on Yelp, and he said he wanted me to call the owner so he could hear the quote for himself, because he didn't believe me. I told him I wasn't comfortable with bait and switch tactics like that and it was his choice to either make the key at the agreed on rate or not, no big deal to me either way. He chose to leave, and I chatted one of the other more reputable locksmiths who had responded to my yelp request, and they came out and did the job for 10% more (fair price) but professionally and without any gimmicks. I like to give folks a chance to make things right before leaving a negative review so I chatted this story to the customer support rep on yelp, who did apologize but then proceeded to tell me it was my fault because copying a key is different than making a key from scratch (no idea what this means, since I already had a working key to copy from), and that there is a hidden extra charge for mobile service (not previously mentioned or charged by other locksmiths). I took a chance on this crew, but will avoid in the future. There are some great locksmiths on yelp with hundreds of 5-star reviews :) read more

Josh was super fast to respond to the call and was very welcoming. The service was very clear in the explanation. The prices are cheaper than you think! I live at copper beech and it only took me 7 mins from the time I called to the time it took to get the door unlocked. The service was fast, safe, and effective. Highly recommend to use this service. read more

Locked myself out of my house when leaving for dinner with a friend on a Wednesday night. I called 512 Locksmith and they had a technician call me back within 5 minutes and arrive to my house within 30. He got in the door no problem with no damage to the door itself. Price was actually cheaper than what I have paid for locksmith services in the past. I would definitely use them again (but hopefully don't have to!!) read more

So thankful for the quick response and service last night. We lost our truck keys and don't have any spares. We had someone here and working so quickly! Pricing was great and professionalism was wonderful! From CSR chatting me on yelp to the tech on site. We will absolutely be calling yall if we need you in the future! (At the rate the toddlers take the keys, can we get a punch card? HAHA) Seriously, Thank yall! read more

I called them to do a key for me. He did a great job thank you. Well use them again if I need Locksmith Service.

Dean responded right away, and sent someone out only a couple of hours later. The service was great, and thorough. Matt, the responding technician, tried to repair my door knob. He took the time to explain to me how it was broken, and was able to get me a new knob within an hour. I was pleased with the response time, quality of work, and cost. read more

Was locked out of my house. called 512 Locksmith. Asked for quote. Original caller said tech would give it to me. Asked tech when he called. Gave me a starting point. $30 service call and $90 to unlock. show up and it's 30 plus 120 plus tax and credit card fee. i am a widow working 2 jobs to survive. pricing seems to be subject to their whims. would not use again. very disappointed. i don't like being taken advantage of. bad on me for not getting other quotes. read more

I locked myself out of my house on a Sat night on the way to dinner. JP was assigned and arrived at time stated, was friendly & professional and opened my door within 30 seconds. read more

Very disappointing experience, honestly. My partner got locked out of our house because our electric lock died without warning. He called 512 locksmith and was quoted $100 initially to be let inside, which is a completely fair estimate. The locksmith got to the house and within 10 minutes realized that he couldn't get in the front door "because the key isn't used often enough" and said he'd have to drill it. My partner called me and I told him to have the locksmith enter from the back door. Why the locksmith didn't just ask about the back door to begin with, I don't know. They went to the back (which had a regular lock and a deadbolt) and got in without any issues. The locksmith was at our home for less than 30 minutes. He then charged my partner $350. He tried to justify by saying he had to charge additional labor for the time spent trying to get in the front door (that he failed to get into, mind you). I understand an increase in price because he had to open a deadbolt, but $350 to be let into your house is just egregious, especially considering that I had the locks changed on my entire house at one point for $250. $350 for 30 minutes of work? Completely outrageous. read more

I wish they had no stats at all. Unfortunately I have not met technician with integrity. The promised $195 becomes( the office give 10% disc after complained)$350, although one part he can't put back. I might as well change the lock if I knew $350 before. Don't use this company. Don't use this company! read more

Mike responded to my inquiry right away. He arrived quickly and exactly when he said he would. He was polite and professional and made a new key for my car in minutes. Highly recommend! read more

512 was very responsive. The technician came early and was out the door in 10 minutes. I had one keypad lock that needed a re-key. My estimate was $35 through Yelp, but I didn't tell them it was a keypad lock, which I noticed was a higher price through other locksmiths. Their total was still cheaper than the other quotes and the guy was super friendly and fast! read more

We were in a time crunch and needed a lock cut off of a storage unit. The "famous" go to lock smith in town was booked out. We could have paid a premium for after hours service or waited 4 days. 512 locksmith responded to my call swiftly and had a guy out in 45 minutes! read more
