Be sure to ask the price before this company does any work for you. I used Amy's Lock & Key in the past and I was very pleased with their service, so when my bottom lock was no longer working, I gave them a call. What I did not know is they contract out with other independent locksmiths--similar to Angie's List. My issue was not an emergency, and I informed the representative. When the locksmith arrived he went right to work with his drill and drilled through the lock in less than 2 minutes. Definitely something I could have done if I had a drill. He didn't even put a new lock in. When I asked him the price, he told me over $300. I was floored! He was there literally 5 minutes. I will never use this company again. Absolute rip off!!! read more

*** Left a message midnight Thurs. Manuel arrived noon Fri. *** Literally re-keyed four door locks, and made four keys in 1/2 hour. *** Amazingly quick, personable, good job and great prices too. *** read more

Amy's Lock & Key - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

I had lost my keys and needed the door to the my room opened since I was coming home from New Jersey. The person that came over to help (John I believe) was highly unprofessional. He called and told me he was running late twice. Not only that, by the time he got to my place I was rushing to board so everything in the phone call was rushed. He was rushing me to agree to the prices (that I couldn't hear very well since the airport was super loud) and I had no choice but to agree since my flight was already boarding. The total came out to $284 and he gave himself a $40 tip (he claimed my roommate that paid gave that to him but I asked her and she did not). RIDICULOUSLY OVERPRICED FOR A LOCKSMITH. LOOK FOR ANOTHER PLACE FOR SERVICES. read more

See all

The mistake I made was not getting a second quote from a different locksmith. When they were doing the job I called someone else and got a quote for half their price. They also try to be very murky about the exact pricing and rush you to get you agree with the ridiculously high prices they charge. read more

I should have get another quote. They charged $270 for picking a lock, which took less than 5mins. It was supposed to be $20 trip fee, but the man charged $40 trip fee. Total rip off. Not sure how they got 4.5 stars on Yelp. Stay away. read more

Thank you for helping my company for lock out problem. I called many locksmiths but no one return because of bad weather and late night. But hopefully Amy's Lock&Key helped us. I don't know the service fee for locksmiths but important thing is my problem was solved. Thanks read more

We recently moved to Inglewood and needed a re-key for the whole home. Amy's had the best quoted rate and Manuel was friendly, punctual, professional, and wicked fast. We couldn't be happier, and we love any opportunity to keep our business local. Thank you, Manuel! read more

They came right out and updated my locks that now looks great! Added the newer keypad. They gave a brief tutorial on programming and voila im all set! Thanks all will be calling again for the rest! read more

Wow, SUPER FAST service. I got locked out of my apartment. Within 10 mins of hanging up the phone the locksmith was at my door. Don't bother calling around, use Amy's Lock & Key. read more

Wow! Such great service. We needed to change our locks at our home. My husband has the skills to replace the locks, but for Evelyn locks that would be expensive. We looked on yelp to find a locksmith to simply rekey the locks. We looked in our neighborhood and found Manny! Are we sure glad we did. He contacted us immediately, made the appointment, and confirmed the appointment. He even showed up a few minutes early too. All of our exterior gate locks, garage doors, security gates, and doors are all keyed alike. It took less than an hour and his prices are reasonable. What a nice man, a family man! He's a very proud Papa and he should be. He did a great job raising his kids. Instilling his top notch work ethics into them. Bravo! Thank you for your great work and being so friendly and kind. Happy belated birthday to your beautiful bride. read more

Amy's Lock & Key - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

My business was recently broken into and i needed to call a locksmith to come by. I called two other locksmiths.. and it was 50% more than this spot. I believe the owner came by from amys and he was very courteous and friendly and gave me a really good price on coming on short notice. Definitely call these guys! Good pricing, not here to rip you off, and is mad fast! read more

I'm not sure who Amy is, since two men showed up, but either way... Great experience. The two men were super friendly and did a great job keying 7 locks for our house, including the original 1906 brass lock, which they originally didn't think they could do. They even installed some new doorknobs we had at no charge, and made sure a door latched that didn't originally latch. $100 for 7 locks is an unbelievable price and they all work perfectly with our keys! The only criticism I have is that they forgot about the appointment they had made with us and we had to call them to find out what happened. They were honest and immediately said they had forgotten and that they would come right away, but maybe a little better appointment management system would make stuff like that happen less. Definitely worth the wait though!! read more

All I can say is Marvin, Marvin, Marvin! What a nice, professional young man, he represented Amy's so well. Make sure you ask for him...he should have his own business! I called 24-7 Locksmiths who tried to rip me off and charge me 4 times as much as Amy's. I sent them home and said no thanks before they did anything. Then I googled and found Amy's. They were there in less than 30 minutes (which was great considering it was the night before a holiday). He walked up with this small little case and a couple tools inside and in minutes vuala, my door was opened. They were affordable, professional, on time and understood the art of customer service. Highly recommend them!!!! read more

Same day service with a smile! Manuel lived up to our arrangements and was on time. Very friendly and completed the job quite quickly. Satisfied customer. Great customer service is rare these days but I found a great company that exceeded my expectations. read more

I needed my mailbox lock replaced. I called about 13 places on Yelp and got quotes between $75-$100. When I called Amy's Lock & Key, he quoted be $55 and was able to come in the evening. He installed the lock so quick and gave me copies for the keys w/out charging me extra! Highly recommend! Most affordable locksmith in the South Bay area. And will come out in the evening. Extremely satisfied! read more

So nice! worked fast and super flexible. He changed 5 locks for under $100. Will definitely be using him for any future lock needs.

Manuel helped me make a key for my motorcycle when no one else would do it. I called literally 46 places in the area to see if anyone would make a key with just the lock cylinder of my bike and 90% of the places I called wouldn't do it...the other 10% told me it would be AT LEAST $200 + a $30 service fee. I finally called Amy's Lock and Key and Manuel was super nice and helpful in helping me get my new key done. He went out of his way to buy the blanks needed for the new key AND he made me a spare for only $50. He took apart my lock cylinder and made a perfect fitting key by hand in under 45 minutes. 12/10 service, will definitely be calling Manuel again when I need a key done even if it is a bit of a drive from where I stay. read more

I needed my my locks re-keyed and Manuel showed up on time. He was very professional and fast. Painless experience.

Omg Manual was a lifesave! He came and got my key that was stuck in my car lock with ease. He did what three other lock smith failed to do in 2 minutes. Thank you so much. Would highly recommend! read more

Good, quick and efficent. Called Manny and within a few hours our gate door lock in our apartment building was fixed. Price was reasonable.

Ah-mazing!!!! Manual came out immediately and helped me into my bedroom. Friendly and fair, no gouging here. For your locksmith needs call Manual. read more

Awesome! Manuel did a great job rekeying our home. He makes appointments by phone, and is flexible of when to come. He can be a bit late, but well worth the wait, I promise! Great work, great prices, and a really super nice person. I would definitely use this company again! read more

Highly recommend! I called and Manuel came the same day to rekey my locks. He worked quickly and was very friendly. Manuel also went above and beyond and he fixed a couple doors that were difficult to lock. The prices are also much better than the other locksmiths. read more

Manuel and his brother Tony we and absolute pleasure to work with. They came out fixed my lock and made 2 extra keys in less than 10 min. They were both professional and still kept an extremely positive and funny attitude even after a long days work. I recommend Manuel and Tony to anyone looking to get their problem handled and quality service. Thanks guys! read more

I am so grateful to Manuel who just got me into my apartment! Great customer service & quick work. Thank you for making it over so quickly & the affordable price. Manuel is GOLD!! read more

Manuel, from Amy's Lock and Key was awesome! He came over in about 20 minutes, with tools in hand, and made a key for my 2005 Suzuki GSX-R in no time. I was in awe watching him work. He's a true professional and an amazing locksmith. He was recommended to me, by Long Beach Motorsports. From what I understand, he does a lot of work for them. Amy's Lock and Key was a great value too. I was quoted as high as $175 from other locksmiths in the area, but only paid $100, plus tip. I highly recommend them. One piece of advice, would be, to accept major credit cards. It's much easier to use a credit card on a purchase of $100 or more, especially if cash isn't readily available. Thanks again, I will refer you every single time! read more

Excellent work with one of the most competitive prices. Manuel was able to come to my house within a couple hours of me calling. He was incredibly nice and quick, and even played with my barking puppy to calm him down. He rekeyed 2 of my locks, and gave me 3 keys, one of which was a do not duplicate key - all for $65. Will definitely be using them again in the future! read more

Called this location a couple of times and got no response. So unfortunate after reading all the great reviews. I was really looking forward to working with a locksmith in my community. read more

A locksmith is your first experience in your new home (or it should be!). Manual made my few minutes in my new home such a pleasure. He worked quickly and went above and beyond. I would recommend him to anyone who asks. read more

I contacted Amy's lock and key for a quote to have the locks for 2 doors changed. I wanted the locks changed asap!! Manuel answered my call friendly and informative and gave me my quote whilst saying he could be at my house in 30 min * I'm local *. He arrived fast and worked even faster he was in and out with extra keys made in maybe 20 min. I highly highly recommend this business. The price was also very fair especially considering how fast he arrived and how good he is at his job. read more

My son locked an interior door and we didn't have the key. I found Amy's Lock and Key on Yelp, called and the owner (His name is Manuel; the business is named for his twenty-something-year-old daughter) arrived within the hour, was fast at re-keying the door, very fairly priced and even WD-40'd my squeaky front door on his way out. Cannot recommend him highly enough! What a wonderful experience! read more

Originally called a locksmith I used before from Yelp but they didn't have a person that could come out. He immediately referred me to Manuel. I needed to change the locks on an apartment of a duplex I own. Manuel and his brother were friendly and very QUICK! As I was paying I mentioned that my car key was broken (the plastic part was broken so I couldn't put it on a key ring). His brother said "I can fix that!". Next thing I know, I have a new car key. Reasonable pricing and quick service. I will DEFINITELY use them again. read more

Excellent, fast service. I had my entire house rekeyed. They showed up on time, got every lock rekeyed in less than an hour, and were really friendly. I would highly recommend! read more

8/21/19 Absolute A-1 Service. I had lost my motorcycle key and was out of options. My friend recommended Amy's. He came to my house and made me a key in record breaking time for a fraction of the price other places quoted me. Dont waste your time with a body else. I am now a customer for life!! read more

Manuel was such a God-send today! I needed my house locks changed right away and he was at my house within 20 min and completed the work in about 30 minutes. He also is extremely friendly and I felt comfortable with him in my home. Give him a call right away! So happy that I found him. read more

So I locked myself out of my apartment, due to lack of coffee. And Manuel answered the phone quickly, he arrived quickly, he got the job done quickly, and had great customer service. Overall he made a what I thought was going to be exhausting and annoying, and actually pleasant and quick experience. I would definitely recommend this company to people I know! read more

I had 3 locks rekeyed today and it was so simple and easy! On time, friendly, reasonably priced, fast service! Thee best!

Manuel unlocked my apartment door in less then an hour from moment I called. Even though it was a Friday evening, he chatted and joked with me. The price was way less than I was expecting. So pleased and grateful!! I don't expect I'd need a locksmith too often, but I would definitely call here again!! read more

Very Shady. I have called and spoke to Amy's Lock and Key dispatch guy about 8 times over the last month and he keeps telling me he will call his driver to see if he can come out to cut my 4 brand new KTM motorcycle key blanks that I purchased from the dealer. I wait and wait and never get a call back. When I call back the same sounding guy tells me he will check with his driver and see if they can come out to my place. I even let the guy know to name his price to make it worth his driver driving out to cut my keys and offered $50 or said if that is not enough, they could give me a fair quote. He said he would check with his driver. I keep calling this place because I was recommended to them by a big business, but I guess my business is too small. They should just let me know that they have a minimum fee that makes it worth their drive and see if I am willing to pay it. If I am not, I will know to look somewhere else and stop wasting my time waiting for Amy's Lock and Key to call me back. I have not gotten to ride my brand new KTM motorcycle in over a month now waiting for this bad company. read more

I contacted Manuel to help my elderly grandmother. She had a key break inside a lock. He arrived within 30minutes of calling him and went above and beyond to assist her. Repaired the lock and made two keys very quickly. He was also the most reasonably priced. Can't say enough great things about this company. Will definitely recommend him others. read more
