I've used them before and they were great. Recently we lost the key to our coin box on our washing machine at a rental property. They came out, drilled out the old box and installed a new one, all on the same visit.

This is the front of his store I highly recommend to come here I broke one of my car keys that was push to start he fixed it for free

He fixed my car key for free that I dropped and it broke very cool guy I highly recommend coming here he's reasonable with pricing as well

Popped in with a door knob needing rekeying. Was done in minutes. I wanted a few keys made too...one ore two minutes more. Friendly and fast and local...everything you want.

This is the lock I accidentally shut and could not reopen.

I had a great experience with ABC. They copied 3 keys for me quickly and everything worked perfectly the first time. The price was very fair, especially compared to other places I've used before. The staff was friendly, professional, and efficient. I'll definitely come back again for any future key or locksmith needs. Highly recommended! read more

I highly recommend ABC Locksmith SF. Someone tried to get into our gate and broke the deadbolt. Ramon recommended a better solution for our setup that will give us better protection and last longer. He was thorough, communicated well, showed up when he said he would, and did a wonderful job. He is a pleasure to work with, and I will call him again next time i need a locksmith. I put my trust in him, and I'm glad I did. read more

Just a high quality place to do business with. Most recently, they tracked down and ordered discontinued key "blanks" (keys before they are cut) so that we could get 20 additional keys made for a school. ABC is always, responsive, easy to work with and very professional all around. Highest recommendation! read more

Bravo to ABC Locksmith! Jenny did what three professionals and two amateurs were unable to accomplish! I accidentally shut the door on my Master Lock while I was changing the combination. I was stumped as to how to open it. Two usually skillful friends who watched YouTube videos for instruction could not get it open. When I contacted the manufacturer, they said they couldn't help. In town, Locksmith #1 said flatly that it couldn't be opened. Locksmith #2 said he could probably get it open, but he couldn't guarantee that it would not be broken - and then, on top of that, it would still cost me $65. I brought it over to ABC and left it with Jenny. When I returned the following day, she had it opened, had the combination for me, charged a reasonable price, and I was extremely satisfied. I don't have tremendous needs for locksmiths, but I can tell you that if I ever need one again, this is definitely the place where I will go. read more

So as usual, I am somewhat of a demanding customer. It's not so much me as it is my clients. I went to another locksmith (TicTicClick) before I went to ABC. That was an epic fail. I found ABC Locksmith and right away they took on my challenge of having eight locks changed out with a request of many different types of keys. I wasn't able to get to them until 3 PM with all of these locks. But they worked on them in less than two hours. I was very happy with their work and even more happy with their professionalism and friendliness. Ray and Ramon it was very nice to meet you guys. I hope you get all the business you deserve. It's rare to find such a friendly business in San Francisco. You will always come highly recommended by me. See you again soon! read more

I first came to ABC Locksmith in August of 2023 to get my key FOB replaced. The price was good and I was in and out in 10 minutes. The customer service was stellar. Fast forward 5 months later. The key FOB started to malfunction. Ramon was extremely understanding and helpful. He understood that what was going on shouldn't happen and there must have been a defect in the product. He helped replace the FOB at no extra charge to me. Once again, I was in and out in less than 10 minutes and their customer service was impeccable.

Gal saved us a lot of money by explaining that all that was needed to be done was to turn the key one extra turn. Gal also adjusted the door because it was hard to close at times and smoothed out the caregiver's keys to make it easier to unlock the door. Gal did great work, but what really stood out to me is what a great quality human being Gal is. Not only was he understanding of the situation with me living so far away, but he showed the caregiver how to open the door if it's locked from inside, took a video of the process so I could share it with the caregiver in case she forgets, had us on speaker phone because the caregiver doesn't speak English so I could help translate. His patience and understanding is of the highest quality, saying that we will all be that age at some point. He was very respectful to my elderly dad and caregiver. Gal is highly recommended!

After waiting almost an hour and a half, he finally showed up at 11:10pm and told me my apt lock was "commercial" and the "driving fee" from the East Bay is $150 on its own and this lock is actually $270 -- but he'd take $180 on Zelle immediately. He then unlocked my door in about 8 seconds. Being that it was almost midnight and I'm a woman alone, I had no choice. I'm not sure why a "driving fee" would be relevant to a business that advertises itself as LOCAL. I could have called the plenty of other SF-based locksmiths and 1) not had to wait much longer than promised 2) not been pressured into a payment that was well over the price that was quoted.

Easy to communicate with Hamid (who replied on Yelp and texted me by phone to schedule, per my…read morerequest) and Huy, the technician that showed up the next morning. I wasn't totally sure what happened or how, but I came home from an overnight trip to find one of the side cables on our garage door had come undone and caused the door to close lopsided. Huy was prompt, kind and efficient. He took a look and set reasonable expectations about cost/time and what would be needed (new drum hardware and possibly a new cable), and then was able to re-use the cable which brought the final total under his initial estimate. He also gave advice about easy garage door maintenance that we definitely weren't doing before. All in all, very happy with the service and while I hope I don't need them again anytime soon, I won't hesitate to reach out to them as needed.

Their combination of technical expertise and customer-focused service is exceptional; | doubt you could find a more qualified or responsive team. From start to finish, their professionalism, punctuality, and attention to detail were evident. They arrived precisely as scheduled and took the time to consult with us on optimal camera placement before completing a flawless installation of our new security camera system. The resulting video quality is exceptionally clear and sharp, exceeding our expectations. The entire experience was five-star in every respect. The only suggestion I would offer is to review your Wi-Fi upload capacity with them in advance to ensure the best system performance.

ABC Locksmith in San Francisco is hands down the best locksmith service I've ever experienced. I had a front door handle from Baldwin--one of those tricky, high-maintenance handles that you basically have to import parts for--and it was completely broken, leaving us locked out of our office for months. I can't even explain how frustrating it was. Then came Ray (yes, R-A-Y!) and another incredibly kind gentleman from ABC Locksmith. These guys were lifesavers. Not only were they super speedy and efficient, but they also had this special tool--something you can't just find anywhere--that was exactly what I needed to fix the handle. And here's the kicker: they let me borrow the tool for free. They didn't charge me a dime, just helped out of the kindness of their hearts. Within minutes, I was able to fix the handle that had been causing us so much trouble. Their professionalism, generosity, and expertise blew me away. If you need a locksmith in San Francisco, don't even think twice--call ABC Locksmith. Ray and his team are absolute legends! read more

This place doesn't even deserve a single star! The prices are crazy high... enough to make you think if this lady is from another planet. And she's OK with it. She'd rather turn you away than try and explain why her prices are so high. Not to mention her crazy 25% restocking fee. That's right. 25% on something so overpriced, the restocking fee would get you what you needed at another shop. So much for supporting small businesses.I ended up going to Lowes, and getting what I needed for 1/5 the price! read more

Just had 2 copies of my housekeep made. Got home and one doesn't work at all, the other only works with a lot of serious jiggling and manipulation. Fortunately, I got a receipt, but I am not a happy camper. Some people complained about the prices; I paid a little under $10 for the two keys (which are the fancy, decorated kind) and two keyrings. It would have been reasonable, if only they worked. $10 minimum for DR or CR cards. read more

Friendly, Quick, reliable and professional service! I got my key duplicated there, and I thought the key had a problem on it. They made me another one, but the problem is still there. Therefore, Ron came to my place try to diagnostic the issue and he quickly found out that my lock has a problem on. He fixed it for me and everything works better than before! Highly recommended! read more

Went to have my scooter key duplicated today. Very pricey, twice the price of Crown locksmith on Balboa Street. Cost me $7.98 + tax versus $3.89 + tax at Crown. Will go there next time. read more
