Had to call a locksmith for a front door lock problem on a Wednesday evening, and happened to find Bluebird Locksmith in Arlington Heights open until 9:00 pm. I called and spoke to Dario who was very polite and understanding. Within minutes of my call, Jose arrived and was fantastic in resolving the problem. He was extremely conscientious, and did an amazing job cleaning the area he worked in, leaving it spotless. I highly recommend Bluebird Locksmith, and we'll be calling them again when we need to replace a lock. Thanks for a great job! read more

Bluebird is great! Came out quickly to make new key fob for my car. It took only 15 minutes and pricing was reasonable. Professional and courteous. I highly recommend. read more

I called Bluebird Locksmith shortly after moving into our new home. They sent Guillermo out the same day. I was very happy with everything from start to finish. Great communication and professionalism! Guillermo replaced the front door lock and then re-keyed several other locks throughout the house. He took time to explain how to properly lock/unlock each door and made sure I tested each lock in his presence. After he left, I realized I forgot about 1 door. I called Bluebird Locksmith again and Guillermo came out that morning to rekey the locks. I am extremely pleased with timely communication, professionalism, service, and fair pricing. I am very happy with the new locks and new keys to our home. I will definitely call Bluebird Locksmith in the future for any needs. Enthusiastically recommend!! read more

I randomly chose Bluebird Locksmith because they were local and I needed someone who could replace my door lock quickly. Tim came out and took care of it. He did a great job. Would definitely recommend! read more

$1350 for 4 locks!!! Buyer beware. Bottom line: I asked for my four locks to be rekeyed and I (the homeowner) was not consulted on price ($1350!!!). My realtor recommended bluebird locksmith to change the locks on our new home. I left someone else at my home to get the new keys and with a check for services. I was told that someone would call me to go over costs. No one called me during the service visit. The locks and door handles were all replaced during the visit rather than rekeyed as requested. The person assumed that the price was cleared by me and wrote the check for $1350. I was not even able to understand the services administered as the receipt was confusing and unclear. After contacting the owner of bluebird asking for how 4 locks to be rekeyed became $1350, he offered to send a $50 check to reimburse for one lock on the bill. I have yet to see a check 45 days later. Shady, shady, shady! read more

Very good experience with Bluebird Locksmith. I made an appointment on a Friday to get locks changed at my new home on a Saturday. Dave, the owner, arrived within our appointment window time. He was very professional and gave advice on our entire home security. He was able to rekey the locks instead of installing all new ones, which saved us money. I would recommend Bluebird Locksmith to anyone! read more

I had Dave out to the house a couple of years ago - sorry for the late review. Our front door would not stay closed, and our patio doors had handles that were getting in the way of new blinds I had just installed. I found Dave from Angie's List and I was more than impressed. He came out that day, on a Friday night! He was honest, helpful and extremely knowledgable. He was able to fix the front door lock without replacing it (it's oversized and would have run me about $600) and instead of changing the handles he was able to reposition them. In the end, due to his honesty and lock savvy, he saved me a ton of money. I would recommend him to anyone asking in a heartbeat. read more

I unequivocally recommend Bluebird Locksmith for all your lock issues! I spoke with Dave about changing a lock on our condo 2 days prior and found myself needing him the next evening, unexpectedly at our home...and he was out to help in 20 minutes. He sent Darren, his partner who couldn't have been more accommodating and immediately fixed that lock. The next morning, Darren met me at the condo to change the lock, and he explained in great detail (he and David firmly believe that customers should be educated) what he could do besides change the lock - and he helped me make informed decisions based on wrist arthritis and condo style...neither of which I would have considered. These guys are the best - I have given their number to two friends already. Way to run a business, Bluebird! read more

Very pleased and would recommend to others to use Bluebird Locksmith. Darren came and re-keyed five locks for me. Explained everything in detail of what he was going to do. Fixed couple things regarding the dead bolt. Price was very acceptable. Cleaned up after himself. Thank you! read more

Used this locksmith a few months back and forgot to write a review. The owner, who's name I cannot remember, answered my call and was to my house in 15 minutes!! He was professional and got my door unlocked immediately, such a lifesaver! He even gave me a super reasonable price and knocked it down. I will definitely be calling bluebird next time I lock myself out! read more

Great experience! I called on a Saturday morning. Dave from Bluebird Locksmith came in the afternoon the same day. He took a look at my door and gave me advice on what needed to be done. I asked him if I could replace it with some extra parts I had and he said yes. I was able to replace it all by myself and he didn't charge me. He was super nice and honest! I would highly recommend Bluebird Locksmith and would want to work with them again! read more

Guy comes out to re key 2 locks and tells me they can't be rekeyed . No idea if that's true or not so I say ok put on new ones. Then he tries to upsell me with "pass through type locks and he does not stop pushing pushing pushing So if you like being high pressure sold. Call them up read more

Our locksmith was a huge help when we got locked out of our garage. He came over as soon as he could and replaced the lock and gave us our new keys. He was very friendly and professional and we could tell he took the job seriously. He kept checking the top lock and drilling until the lock turned just right. He also checked our hinges to make sure that everything was secure. We will use bluebird any time we need a locksmith in the future. read more

This company is one of the most trustworthy companies in my life. Better deals, better services, and better time. You'll never regret becoming their customer. I truly appreciated what they did for me. Look for David. He'll never disappoint you. read more

Dave with Bluebird Locksmith was extremely helpful. We are from out of town and only in Waukegan for a few days. We needed to install new locks on a family member's home since he recently passed away. I found Bluebird Locksmith here on Yelp, liked the other reviews, so gave them a call. Dave responded quickly. He was considerate of our short-time frame, and was able to send one of his guys, Anthony, out the same day. Dave also helped us figure out the best security setup for our situation at the lowest price possible. Anthony was very polite, knowledgeable and completed the work without any issues. I highly recommend using Bluebird Locksmith because they did a great job for us in a time of need! read more

Had to report how pleased I was with Bluebird Locksmith today. Been having untold issues with front door lock, replaced it numerous times, consulted with two locksmiths and it still didn't work. Called up Bluebird and talked to the owner, Dave Wilson. He listened to all I had to say, offered to come out late the same evening. I said he could certainly wait another day for a reasonable time for him and his business. He asked me to send pictures so he could get an idea of the problem. He came out personally the next day, saying it sounded complicated and while his techs are highly trained and do excellent work, he wanted to see the setup for himself. He then researched alternative lock sets, asked me about the family's usage of the door, desired longevity for the lock system, budget, etc. He installed lock, deadbolt, counseled me on better lock for another door and installed a new deadbolt and lockset there. He rekeyed everything. Gave advice about security and things to look for in locks and quality. 24/7 service. Thumbs up. read more
