I had an excellent experience with Chicago Locksmith and was extremely pleased with the entire…read moreprocess and final results. Because my project involved a custom door replacement that required condo association approval, custom ordering, painting, lock placement, and installation, there were several phases involved. Throughout it all, the team remained professional, responsive, organized, and attentive to detail. Walter, the locksmith technician who handled the project from beginning to end, did an outstanding job. His workmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail truly stood out, and the finished result exceeded my expectations. Chicago Locksmith is lucky to have someone such as Walter that is extremely skilled, professional and pleasant to deal with. I also want to recognize the Chicago Locksmith office staff for their excellent customer service and communication throughout the process. Everyone was courteous, helpful, and a pleasure to work with. Overall, I highly recommend Chicago Locksmith for their professionalism, quality work, and outstanding service.

Perhaps he is of Irish heritage, I never had the opportunity to find out 1) I have seen over 300 photographs of his work This man is the very BEST if you are only looking for a handyman or have no assistance from even an essentially useless husband in the paint or a long hair clogged shower drain 2) Shay is a LIAR I appreciate that he was willing to drive out to The suburbs of Chicago from all the way East in Logan Square His estimate is NOT free as Yelp guaranteed He requires photographs (easy peasy) of the locks as well as *$45* to even come out to take a look He broke the Yelp Guarantee right there Chicago Locksmiths should be banned from Yelp same as nobody should have voted for Trump. There were zero good choices but at least ond was NOT a babbling dementia suffering 90 yeat old 3) Shay claims the his primary concern is home and auto safety If that were actually true then with photos in hand he has zero reason to have a $45 fee to take a look I have zero reason to take issue with Shay - especially his quality of work All that I know is that Shay LIED to Yelp in order to gain business and if that works for him, then I do not give a fxck I shall not be used I have Elite and All-Star status that I EARNED with Yelp and followers Every single one of my Yelp reviews are shared with Google I sincerely hope that my review discourages anybody and everybody from hiring Chicago Locksmiths

The entry key is part of the FOB and an important part of a working FOB. He told me that I now need to go to a dealer to have the keys cut which means extra time and money. I will never use this service again and would recommend others find a place that actually completes the work correctly.

"No problem, I can pick the lock". 25 minutes later still no luck. He just made up excuses about why he couldn't get the lock open. (Maybe 3-4 year old lock) Charged me the $100 service fee. Anyway, he then tried to sell me $500 worth of locks after I told him my budget was $300. He didn't care so I told him forget it and "I'll let you know about tomorrow" as he left. The next day I received a text saying he was on his way over when I NEVER EVEN OK'd his coming over. Nothing but high pressure here. Complete scam job. BEWARE! They will try to sell you expensive locks. And he kept telling me "look out for these other locksmiths, they're out to get you". Sorry Goldy Locks, YOU are the company out to get customers.

Then when I emailed, someone replied they would handle and then a mjnute later, I got a recalled email notice (those don't work you know). Anyway, when I hired a new locksmith to fix my lock, he opened the lock to find they used the wrong part and tried to make it fit by using....wait for it....electric tape....in a metal lock. The new locksmith was aghast at the repair and couldn't believe they attempted it. Zero stars.

Some times it would take me 10 minutes just to get the key in the ignition to start the car. I called the Honda dealer and they quoted me $150.00 over the phone. When I got there the price jumped to $240.00 for a new key/cut/ and program. I was pissed that they did the "bait and switch" on me. I told them to CRAM IT! I called Quick Key in Lombard and talked to Jeff and asked for a ball park quote (lowest to the highest). He told me between $110 to $160 without looking at it. I brought it over to him and showed him the problem. He took the time to try some "lock smith wizardly" to save me a couple of bucks. His top notch expertise WORKED! I walked out of there paying $119.00! If you need some top notch lock smith work or just need a duplicate key for your shed, CALL JEFF, GREAT HONEST GUY!

We found Gilad on YELP and were impressed with his reviews. Gilad was everything we read about. He's just a really nice guy who aims to please. He did a great job with the locks, allowing us to keep the existing doorknobs which were in good shape. When he was done, we asked him to tighten loose handles on some sliding glass doors. They're on the third floor and no longer locked ( not a big issue on the 3rd floor) but he tightened the screws and returned them to locking condition for us at no extra charge. Can't recommend Gilad highly enough. Thanks again Gilad!!!
