Amazing The guys at Abe's Lock are incredible. I lost the fob for my car, and they purchased a whole new lockpicking tool because the car had a difficult lock, and went out of their way to go across the street to get jumper cables from a local mechanic, since mine were locked in the trunk. They're extremely professional and nice and have very reasonable prices. I'd highly recommend them to anyone. read more

Wonderful service! Super friendly locksmith with a wonderful, cozy atmosphere. They fixed my key cheerfully and with absolute professionalism. I'm so glad I found this place. If I ever need key repairs again, I will absolutely come back here! read more

Had them come out twice. All my deadbolts at my house are all from Baldwin. I wanted to put an electronic key pad, just in case I get locked out. I was recommended a Schalage key pad and they would be able to match my Baldwin key to my Schalage key pad. They can also pick a lock, instead of just complete destroying it and forcing you to buy a new lock. Pricing was fair. read more

Abe's is the place!! I had an Emtek lock that needed repairing (the spring inside broke so the handle was floppy). Decided this was something I could probably DIY and contacted the manufacturer for the correct part. Not once but twice Emtek sent me the wrong spring / parts. There's a lot more to the story that involved a deep rabbit hole but the important part is I ended up finding Abe's and Paul totally helped me out and fixed the lock, and even had one of the elusive springs I needed! (Because Emtek sent him wrong parts too!). I actually brought another lock in the same day and Paul's dad was the one to help me and he quickly worked his magic. Total pros! This shop reminds me of the kinds of places that existed in childhood when my mom would drag me around to do errands.. And I mean that in the very best way. 10 stars! THANK YOU, Abe's! read more

Abe's Locksmith has earned a customer for life. They were easy to schedule, showed up on time, and the technician clearly knew his stuff. Five stars all the way -- I'll be recommending Abe's to everyone I know! read more

We used Abe's for years and more recently to change locks on two former rental properties in Tujunga. He was efficient, fairly priced and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Don't bother searching any farther... Abe's is quick, honest, fair in pricing and thorough. One of the best service companies we have in Montrose. The back door at Town has been a problem for a couple of years. The old door literally broke itself out of the back wall and when it was replaced it never worked right. Either it slammed or didn't close. Eventually the lock assembly that came with the new door broke. Construction guys came back and put a new one on and less than two months later it was falling off. So I called Abes. Two hours later they were there and 1/2 hour later they had fixed the lock (it hadn't been installed properly) and reworked the door closer to the door latches but doesn't slam. I'll never call anyone else. read more

Andrew at Abe's Lock & Key is quick to reply and very courteous. He was recommended to me by my friend. He came on time and was very quick to assess the problem I had with my Entrance Door Latch knob that no longer was opening my door. He carried all the necessary hardware to fix the problem and fixed it within an hour. I would recommend their Service if you have any Lock & Key issues. read more

I've used Abe's for years and years, always stellar. Today I got a quote for a car key fob, to program it and cut the emergency key. It was a fraction of the cost the dealer quoted me (about 27%). I got the FOB for $26 on Ebay, the company on Ebay had to get information to make sure they sent the right FOB (appreciated). Bless Abe's! And the person I talked to was delightfully helpful. So if you are one key fob away from a stranded car, suggest you go this route.... Oh, and the dealer was saying up to 3 hours. Abe did it all in 10-12 minutes including programming and cutting the emergency key. read more

Prompt, efficient and reliable service! Highly recommended! Ordered and programmed my car key fob beautifully!!

Fabulous work. Friendly workers. Great value. Showed up when they said. Performed the service requested and showed up on time.

My mother in law locked herself out of her apartment and I called Abe's. They rushed over to help. At the same time, the manager showed up and opened the door. Abe's made my mil a key and only charged her $5. Truly so kind. They also refused to take payment from me. Very cla read more

Exactly what I needed... a local spot to do simple and relatively cheap key copies. That's it! Thank you for doing what I need. It looks like they also handle more complex security needs, but I'm not there yet. read more

Awesome service and fast. I had 2 locks that needed service. Reasonable price for initial lock, a bit more I am mine for the service of dicing to my house. But had a great rate for the additional locks. Arrived in about an hour during regular weekday hours. read more

Family owned & run business, Quick & professional keycutters with reasonable rates. Because it was convenient (in store) i tried another business that had a key curting area. They were mainly a gardening business in a huge warehouse. Unfortunately after two attempts & 4keys that didnt work later. i went back to Abe's. Have to say they did an excellent job again! Shall be getting keys & other locksmith entailed services done here from now on. read more

I had an unusual key to be made. Within 5 minutes they made my key! Problem solved!

Small business carried from the original owner to one of the employees and now his son. Easy to miss but don't. Almost hidden behind and off an alley that goes behind the Verdugo City post office, you might easily miss it. It is a step back in time. Smiling service. Reasonable prices. I had new keys made for my house and they did it while I waited. Don't let the facade fool you. They know what they're doing. Also delighted they rekey for Bob Smith Toyota since that's my auto dealer. They even have a sense of humor. Read their chalkboard. I've included it in my photos. Made me smile. read more

See all

These guys are impeccable when it comes to their service the price that they give, Andrew helped me out a ton and Paul sealed the deal when I was in a time of need. highly recommended! read more

First time using this service. Owner, Abe, was nice enough and made my duplicate keys quickly and efficiently. I like using and supporting small owned businesses as their always is more of a personal feel to the transaction. Highly recommend Abe's Lock &Key. read more

These guys are awesome. Love this small family run business. As a local - you always want a spot like this to exist.

Paul was very professional, super helpful, and very fair with his price. He serviced a commercial lock with a speed of lightening. Tenants could not get it and out of the building... he rearranged his fully booked schedule and took care of the emergency right away. He is a local family operated business. Thank you Paul !!! read more

Paul and Andrew did me a real solid, coming out on a cold and dark Friday evening to make a key for my pickup truck. They were professional, reasonable, and got me out of a bind. I will definitely use them again if I have the opportunity. I can see why they have been in business for so long. They give good service, good value, and do what they say they will. How many businesses are like that nowadays. Thank you guys. Jim L read more

Many, many years ago, way before Yelp was even a twinkle in Jeremy Stoppelman's eye, I had locked myself out of the house on a day when my two kids happened to forget to take their keys to school. I was desperate and used a neighbor's phone book (remember those?) to look up a local locksmith to rescue me. That locksmith was the previous owner of Abe's, and one of the nicest and most helpful locksmiths ever. So, when I was in desperate need of a locksmith many moons later, I called Abe's again. And thank goodness I did. Although the business is now in different hands, the helpful spirit remains. My car key had broken off in the lock and my valet car key stopped working, resulting in two (TWO!!) calls to AAA. I had taken my car to the dealer for a repair estimate and was quoted $600 to $1000 to replace the lock cylinder, plus a reprogramming fee for my key of $150, plus $95 for the key itself. Over $1200 to fix a lock? For a car that's worth like $2000? Nope. Not gonna happen. Then a brilliant idea occurred to me.....just call Abe's. The current owner was extremely helpful over the phone, gave me an idea of the cost, didn't get upset when my car alarm went off two times in his parking lot, and gave me a ride home after I dropped off my vehicle. He fixed the lock (which involved opening up my car door and a lot of complicated mechanics that I can't hope to understand), reprogrammed my key and set me up with a new key all for $260. He had me check the valet key, too, which now works, thanks to his repairs. And, best of all, he told me it wasn't my fault, that this happens all the time, and that it was typical. Bless him. Thank you, Abe's, for coming to the rescue again! read more

I had 5 keys to my car and it was a a mess. One key could open the door one would start the car one remote would work one would not. I took it over to Abe's and within 20 min. he programmed and cut keys for me so they all worked! He was amazing and so nice and reasonably priced! I can't thank him enough for fixing my keys. read more

I needed to re-key my front door to match the rest of my house entry doors. I took the door key cylinder to Abe's and I was done in less than ten minutes, including five additional keys. I was charged very reasonably despite needing the service during the Eaton Fire evacuation. Wonderful local business with an amazing customer service and pleasant attitude. read more

I called them at the last minute and they showed up at my house in 5 minutes. Awesome service! I highly recommend these guys!

Very very family oriented business highly recommend because of the attention and the immediate service that they do prices are perfect and reasonable read more

Just wanted to thank the gentleman who helped me over the phone yesterday. I needed to replace the lock to my mailbox because I have mail bandits roaming around my complex who go into people's mailboxes without permission. Anywho, the gentleman could have upsold me his universal lock for the replacement, but instead, he brainstormed other less costly options. The suggestions were successful, and hopefully, this will deter the mail bandits! If you're a mail bandit, you suck. Abe's Lock & Key does not. (; read more

Fantastic service at a good price - what more can you ask for? Quick to respond and they go above and beyond to be helpful read more

I have "tried" to replace two front door locks in 12yrs. Both times, the guys at Abe's Lock & Key have had to correct my mistakes! The first time was about 8yrs ago on New Years Day of all days. Emergency fix so I could secure my front door. Now this morning- they were at my house by 9:30am (an hour after I called) to fix my screw ups!!! Very professional, polite and prompt! read more

I was referred to Abe's Lock & Key by a neighbor after the caretaker of my elderly aunt accidentally locked herself out of the house. The agency called a locksmith, who ruined the locks on the front and back doors at the home and still couldn't get her inside. We called Abe's to see if they could replace the locks that the other locksmith ruined. They came within 15 minutes, changed the lock, and were on their way in 20 minutes. They also charged less than half the quote of the first locksmith. They are very friendly, prompt, and professional. I will call Abe's for any future lock and key needs. Thank you, Abe's! read more

Great family business. They are professional courteous and best of all respectful. I would use them again and again. Cannot explain to you guys how impressed I am with the customer service and professionalism of Abe's lock and key. Would give them 10 Stars if I could! read more

AMAZING service!!!! My key broke off in my door and they were at my house 15 minutes! Removed the key, drilled down the door a bit and made me a new key!!! So fast and professional! Thank you!!! read more

By far the absolute best and most knowledgeable locksmith in the area! I had an old antique gas tank key that was just about to break off and they literally made a perfect replica of it including some of the "imperfections" on the key that were imperative to making it turn correctly! So impressed! The guy at ace that wasn't able to replicate this kind of key with his machine highly recommended this company and I'm so glad I listened! read more
