My french door could not lock anymore. I found this place through Chinese Yellow Pages. Owners were super friendly and knowledgeable. They asked me to send in photos for evaluation and dispatched a serviceman the same day. The serviceman must have seen enough of the same problem, fixed the issue in no time. The charge was very reasonable for a house call. I didn't know that this store has been in Alhambra for 30+ years. But I am super delighted to find it which is only a mile away from my house. I told my wife this will be our go-to place from now on. read more

This place is great. I had to duplicate keys for a 50's Cadillac and a 50's Ford and they found the blanks and made the keys in 5 minutes. Lots of places just said "no" when I asked if they could make vintage car keys but it was no sweat for B&B. I knew she was going to kill it when I put the keys on the table and she immediately said "50's GM" when she saw the Cadillac key. $5 a pop! I'll be going back when I need keys for our other needs. read more

I lost the keys to my mailbox for a while and finally decided to find a locksmith to either make a new key or replace the lock. The first place I went to quoted me $135, which felt way too high. I found this shop instead and had a completely different experience. It seems to be run by a husband and wife team, and they were both so kind and welcoming. He explained I didn't need to replace the lock and he could make a key by doing an impression of the lock. I came in around 3pm, so he had it ready the next day. The price was very reasonable (much cheaper than the first place), and the service was excellent. The store is also well stocked with door knobs, padlocks, and other home security items. Highly recommend! read more

I have been coming to this locksmith so many times and now I'm not sure what happening but it feels like you pay one price for the same keys, they don't work or fit in the door you go back and now the key is "special key" and cost over $4.50 more. You get attitude and rude customer service and the justification is some how your fault and no accountability. I'm too old to be dealing with this and I wouldn't recommend them anymore. Try any other place but here. read more

They installed a new garage door and opener. Such a good job and price I recommended one of my friends also use them for a new opener. Also bought remotes from their nice selection of accessories. This is a very good place to go for more than just locks and such... read more

Needed some keys made. The owner was really nice showed me some really cool options. His service was excellent and prices were reasonable. Didn't realize they also carry some really cool safes. read more

Great service! Highly recommend working with this company. We have hired them multiple times for garage and gate repairs.

Great service at a great price! I've always gone to B&B Lock and Security to duplicate keys but this was the first time I went to inquire if they could replace some deadbolts and doorknobs and rekey some as well. Last week I stopped by B&B and met Van and discussed what I needed to have done at the house. He asked that I text him photos of my doors and he quickly confirmed that they could do the job! Rather than discuss the details over the phone, I went back to the shop and met Van to decide on type of doorknobs and deadbolts to replace my old ones. By the way, they seem to have a huge selection! We discussed if I should replace the deadbolt with a one cylinder vs. two cylinder and type of finish I wanted on the hardware. He was very helpful. After settling on what I wanted to have done and the date, he gave me an estimated cost which was in the $400 range for: replacing 2 deadbolts, replacing 2 doorknobs, rekeying 1 deadbolt, rekeying 1 doorknob, and 10 duplicate keys. All of the locks were Kwikset and use the same key. On the day of the service, Paul called and let me know what time he would show up. He was on time and worked very fast. He never stopped working! He even helped me out with my old door which was not closing properly. He shaved down parts of the door so that it now closes with ease. After about 75 minutes, he was finished. He wrote out the receipt and it came out to under $400. Amazing! For the kind and professional service you receive, I would definitely recommend B&B Lock and Security Inc. Thank you Van and Paul for your wonderful service here in the San Gabriel Valley! read more

The service here to get an extra car key (electronic) was great! I was in & out in about 20 minutes, & the key is working well. The employee who helped me was very nice & efficient! :) read more

I was looking for a hard to find garage door hinge. I first went to Home Depot, and they didn't have it.. A kind lady working at Home Depot behind her desk saw me and offered to help. When she realized they didn't carry that hinge in store, she recommended B&B and even called them for me. I went there and sure enough to my surprise and delight, they had the hard to find part! It's a well-stocked old-fashioned store with knowledgeable staff. read more

I love this key place, HIGHLY recommended! I went to Home Depot to make duplicates of my keys. They only had a few choices to pick from and I remember I had gone to this mom and pop shop years ago. It took me about 30 minutes of googling key shops in the Alhambra area and I had flashbacks when I saw this place on Google. I went in on a Saturday afternoon and surely enough, they had hundreds of choices to pick from. The prices vary from $5-$10 I believe depending on which design you pick. I should have came here first before wasting my time at 2 different Home Depot locations. This is THE place to get key copies. I do wonder why they are no longer open on the weekends. I still need to make a few extra key copies but the store hours have changed. I see that they are only open until 5:00 PM on weekdays and are now closed on weekends. Unfortunately my 9am-5pm job doesn't allow me the time to come in to the store during weekdays and they are closed weekends. read more

Came back here for my second time to make a duplicate copy of my house / mom's apt. {keys}went home to try them out & Walla Opened Sesame!

Arrive quickly, always get the job done at very reasonable prices. I had them do installations, repairs, and they recently figured out how to get my sliding gate working again when the official manual and Liftmaster support couldn't figure it out. read more

Excellent service! One of my colleagues was accidentally locked out of our office and Paul came within minutes and unlocked the door. He made a key in under 10 minutes for the door which was extremely impressive. Great costumer service and would highly recommend! read more

B & B Lock and Security - The spring they should have installed that I just paid $400 to another company to install - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Alhambra, California

Family owned and operated. Very helpful and great workmanship. I needed my locks rekeyed because I wanted them to use the same key. Unfortunately the garage knob/lock was a different brand (all locks need to be the same brand - Schlage, Kwikset, etc - in order to use the same key). They suggested going to Home Depot to buy the door knob/lock because it may be cheaper and they could do the rekey, so all locks would usenthe same key. The work was quick and everything worked out. read more

We had our mailboxes pried into and damaged and came here looking for a more secure mailbox. They made some recommendations for us, but didn't have what we needed in stock. The service was nice and helpful, and we appreciated the help. Small store on a big street. We found a parking spot right infront easily. read more

Went in for a key duplicate. Really friendly. Fast and brilliant customer service! Definitely recommend this business

I come here all the time for all my keys that needs to be duplicated. They duplicated pretty much 99% of the keys i bring in. The keys that couldnt be duplicated are either the RFID ones or the southco keys - but the southco keys are generic, mass produced keys that you can pretty much get online- and there are codes to look those up, too. They also have an assortment of locks as well that you can pick from. Also, a service they have that I havent really seen from the other reviews that i want to mention is that if you bring them a lock with a piece of a key that broke and is stuck inside, they can remove it for you and you can continue to use the lock again. I had a broken key stuck in a cam lock, and instead of getting a new lock and re-keying to match the existing locks, they just took the stuck piece out and i put it back into the latch to use again. These guys are great, friendly - they know what they are doing and they get the job done quick. read more

I came in to replace my Honda car key but the young gentleman said it was working fine and the battery needed to be adjusted with the prongs. He was so kind to do that for me for free. He saved me money since I didn't need to purchase another one. So, I ended buying some cute Disney keys and a wrist key holder. Amazing service and I will definitely be coming back for all keys, locks, and safe needs. Thank you, B & B Lock and Security! read more

Great service. The guy was very knowledgeable and understood what was needed. The prices for key was much better than competitors. I'm not sure if this shop is family owed but the service was excellent. I go there for all my keys made. read more

When my Honda remote keys no longer worked on opening the doors or trunk, I visited my Honda service guy James at H H Motor Service. James recommended B&B Lock & Security nearby, also on Valley Blvd. At B&B I was told that the chip in one key malfunctioned and could not be repaired. The other just needed a battery. (I actually bought a new battery elsewhere, and put it in but may have drained it because of the malfunctioned remote chip). I acquired another remote key and came back to have it programmed. Now I'm back with 2 remote working keys again thanks to great service by Morgan! read more

I had a garage key copied at Home Depot for $4.97. Didn't work. Had it copied at B & B for $2.25. It was done in just a minute or so and it works perfectly. Highly recommend. Thanks B & B! read more

Here to support mom n pop shops. Got some keys duplicated quickly and it was done at a great price.

Key copy was super quick and easy! Was in and out in a few minutes. Cheaper than a home depot kiosk

Quick and easy service. Good price for key copies and they are very fast. Would definitely recommend.

02/18/2021 My rolling garage door won't open. I contacted some board members of my HOA to see if they had any good experience with garage door companies. I was referred to B & B Lock and Security said that they fixed a number of customers in my complex. I called them and gave a call back number, they called me back in 30 minutes. Gave my address and what the issue is. They said sounds like the springs broke that will cost $190 made a appointment to came over and get this done. It took less than an hour to install new springs, they lubricated the track rollers and balanced the door as well. I'm very happy with the service that i've received gave me a one warranty. read more

B & B Locks has always met my needs when it comes to fixing locks, changing locks, selling locks, and when I need another remote for garage door opener and/or for a security gate. Manufacturers throughout the years come and go. They obsolete and come out with new model numbers for everything. I'm happy to say that B & B is good at cross referencing part numbers per the manufacturer, and even trouble shoot issues that might involve a garage door or evene programming a new remote. They are knowledgeable. Nowadays their store mainly carries door locks and and so many different styles of safes. Their prices are decent. Maybe a bit less expensive than Home Depot and Lowe's. But basically I come to get knowledge to troubleshoot issues that needs to be resolve. They are also locksmiths who will go to your home via appointment to fix garage doors, re-key a lock, or change a new lock at a reasonable cost. I've been using them for the past twenty years! So go figure. read more

Came here a few times to copy house keys and also toyota keys. Very reasonable prices and I think it's family owned which I'm happy to support even more so! Morgan, you helped us copy a Toyota Camry key today. Great service, thank you for your advice too! read more

This was the go to place for all of my parent's locks and keys. Whenever an employee would quit or get dismissed, they would rekey the locks on the doors of their business. Whenever we moved to a new place, my husband and I always rekeyed the locks. It's a lot more cost effective than replacing the locks. I also like having the same key for the locks throughout the household. I called numerous locations so that I could compare their fees per visit and lock. I then remembered B&B Lock and Security. I should have known that they had the best prices. The locksmith rekeyed numerous locks for us. He also made additional keys for the locks that were rekeyed. About 15 minutes after he left, I realized that I had missed a door that needed to be rekeyed. I called B&B, and within minutes they sent the locksmith back. I am thankful that they did not charge me extra for having to come back to the residence. read more

Been here three times, always fast and good key copies (believe me, once I went somewhere else to make key copies, made 6, only 2 worked! So I guess key-copy is not as easy as we thought). Friendly and good price. Highly recommended. read more

I called them Monday and they came on Tuesday. I locked my keys in my office and door keys were in my office. I couldn't get in.5 I called Monday morning and they were completely booked. They came Tuesday. We also had one front door that was broken. They replaced the new locked and then the back door was not broken but it was not a moving handle so there is a good chance it can break in the future. So I decided to replace two new locks one broken one and one still working. My questions is why wouldn't they leave me the good one? I text right after when I thought about it and I didn't get a reply as of yet. They were really good at coming out and fixing the lock. Two new locks and and breaking in the door coat 490.00. They cleaned up after themselves too . read more

B&B Lock is an incredible business that should be recognized for their community involvement and service. B&B Lock was called upon to repair a security door for a Police Officer who had recently lost his wife. Without hesitation, they quickly responded and took care of the issue on the same day. They insisted that we do not compensate them for their time. They were more excited just to help for the cause. Truly a selfless act that they did, such an amazing company! read more
