I lost my key fob and Alex was there within about 90 minutes on a Sunday, programmed my new one in a matter of minutes and it cost me less than $200! Excellent, friendly service! read more

Late for first appointment. Then didn't have the right part even though I have my make model before they ever came. Then they were coming right back. Then it was gonna be the next day. The. It was gonna be 4 days later. Set another appointment, they never showed up. Called - no answer. Texted - no answer. Goodbye So needless. Just talk to people. Ghosting customers only leads one place. read more

Great service, great communication. Nice chill vibe You can text him with pictures of the originals and he will let you know if he has the blanks He had the blanks for my 1985 Ford truck Fast quality work, the keys work great. It's a small shop but very clean and organized. He does key fobs and lock outs. 2 truck keys and one gate key $18 I think it was a little expensive, but I could be wrong. It was very convenient PARKING* I think it's just street parking but the spots right in front are usually open. read more

I called Alex yesterday because I needed to replace my car key fob after losing it. He ordered the keys and came today to program everything. Within an hour, I had two new key fobs for 60% of the cost of ONE key fob from the dealership. Plus I didn't have to get my car towed to the dealership! He was fast, communicative, and knowledgeable. I am so glad I found Alex and his business! read more

California locksmith isn't reliable for walk-ins. I called the day before and asked if they would be in the next day. Whoever answered the phone said "yes". I gave them my name and said I would be there. When I showed up the next morning at the business at approximately 10am the door was locked and no one answered. I waited 10 minutes and then called. The person who answered the phone recognized my name from the day before. They said they would give me a call back within 20 minutes. I waited at the business for another 30 minutes and didn't receive any call back that day or any after that. I tried calling them back with no answer. read more

Took our dog for a late night walk and left our keys in the house. California Locksmith was the only one that had a human answer the phone at midnight, and showed up within 10 minutes. The gentleman was super friendly and only took about 30 seconds to get us back in our house. Excellent value for the price, especially considering the late night availability and responsiveness. Absolutely would recommend. read more

I had called about three or four different locksmiths before I luckily found Alex. I accidentally locked myself out of my apartment when I was rushing out the door with my dog and I got distracted. I wasn't able to get a hold of my landlord so I was a little panicked because it was about 5:30 on a Friday evening but Alex picked up got my address and quoted me a time and then followed up when he was on his way and he probably came a little bit earlier than I anticipated. He was very professional and reassuring and even though we had to drill into my lock LOL I am so thankful that I had someone I could rely on to help me get back into my apartment especially because I had my dog. Highly recommend Alex. $120 was worth the quick service and responsiveness in my time of need. read more

California Locksmith Company - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Long Beach, California

This company is among the top five service businesses that I've ever used. I lost the extra key fob for my Prius. I procured two replacements on-line, but I needed them programmed. Alex booked me a same-day appointment and charged me a very reasonable fee that was one-third the price quoted by my Toyota dealer. Alex was on time, very personable, and he also cut the emergency keys in the fob. A+++ read more

Easiest and fastest service! Got myself locked out and Yelp sent out a request and Alex quickly sent a message to get more information and provide a quote on the spot. Within 20 minutes he was at the location and was able to get the job done within seconds. This was also around 6-7pm which was really nice because a lot of other places showed as closed already. Definitely recommend! read more

SO QUICK. SO POLITE. SO GREAT! He got me in the door within seconds and I was set. $125 for emergency lock out. Thank you!

California Locksmith did a great job. Both the owner and his tech were very friendly, the cost was very reasonable and they were both very quick. I had a follow up question after they left my house and without issue, the owner returned and resolved my question. I highly recommend this company for your locksmith needs. read more

So disappointed in California Locksmith Co. I called two days ago and set an appointment for 1 pm today 3/13. It is now 2:30 and the guy has not shown up nor contacted us. I called another company and that person is coming in 15 minutes. I know who I will be calling in the future. And who I won't. read more

I rarely right bad reviews but I've had the worst experience with trying to deal with this guy for a Key FOB and I gave him way more opportunities then I should have. He said he ordered a part for me and then 5 different times I called and he said he was busy on a client and would get back to me in a couple hours. Never once did he ever call back. Every time I'd call he said he was sick or something came up. Many times it would ring and then the line would randomly disconnect. Luckily I found a great guy right up the street who changed it right away for me. read more

California Locksmith Company - Soo many unanswered calls or promises to call right back that never happened. This is just last 24hrs, there were far more last week. - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Long Beach, California

Had one prior experience with a lockout, and he was quick to get to my home and was equally quick in unlocking our door. A few months later, found myself locked out again, and ended up reaching out to a different company (admittedly thinking I was reaching out to the same guy; spoiler, it wasn't). The other guy wasn't a bad guy, but was not nearly as good as the gentleman from California Locksmith, at picking our lock. The other guy also cost twice as much for the same service. While, I hope I never have to find myself locked out again, I have the guy from Cal Locksmith's number saved in my phonebook in case I need locksmith Batman. read more

I lost my mailbox key and called California Locksmith today. They came out in 20 minutes and installed a new lock with 2 new keys. Lalo was the serviceman and he was very professional and was able to get the job done very fast. I must admit, I was amazed that the cost was as low as it is. In the future, if I need anything done regarding rekeying, I will definitely call California Locksmith on the 3rd in Long Beach. read more

My lock broke as I was trying to leave to pick up my vehicle from my mechanic. Gratefully, my mother was home and could be in my home until I returned. I was frantic. Once I returned, I googled locksmiths in Long Beach and found this company. I used the request quote function and was immediately connected to a chat. The rep was attentive, resourceful and courteous. I was informed a technician would be to my home shortly and, to my pleasant surprise, he arrived within minutes. The tech fixed my lock quickly and professionally. I thanked him and are grateful for the expedited service. Great company, will recommend for all locksmith needs! read more

Today I was helped by LIRON MADMONI. I've never had locksmith service before so as far as price comparison, all I could say is it was fair. However, Liron service went above and beyond. I was 35 minutes late due to me hopping on the wrong freeway and he still waited. He was nice and fast and I appreciate him for his time. read more

Dude is super wack. Rude on the phone and has poor communication skills. Locksmith tries to tell an agent how to do his job. I didn't know I called the bureau for a consultant on my job, thought it was a locksmith. Says he knows more about housing laws than agent. If you need a realtor , this locksmith thinks he knows it all, so call him. . Today I had time locksmith, hope you think about how you talk to people before you lose your company to bad reviews. Anyways this is a know it all realtor not a locksmith, do not call. read more

I accidentally locked myself out in January and found this company on yelp. The guy came and worked on the door for over an hour. I was freezing cold outside and Alex ended up having to drill through the doorknob and still charged $80! And he said because he couldn't pick the lock, he'll install new doorknobs for me for free. Well, the landlord wants the keys to all match or get copies of the new keys. Instead, he made excuses about how the doorknobs were too close to the door jam and etc... and ended up not installing the new doorknob nor making up for the damage he did after charging the full price for not being able to pick the lock successfully... I'm pretty upset. He gave me attitude and I never spoke to him again. Not sure if anyone else has experienced this...Let me know. I only came across this company again because we are locked out again...but don't think I'll call him... --------------------- Replying to the owner's comment: No you did not! You did NOT come to my home and install the new lock! I had a handyman friend come do it. And I did not threaten. I said I would write a review to prevent others from paying for a service they did not get. I should've read the reviews first. Seems like a lot of negative reviews had issues with communication and you keeping promises. You took money from me and wasn't able to do your job. At least, you could've accepted half payment for being unable to unlock BOTH sides of my apartment. Yes, the neighbor tried to help open the back doors but The front doors were not even touched by my neighbor. You even said that it was some high end tech or weird doorknobs/locks that were extra secure. And I found out the landlord bought them from Amazon. Yes, I have texts too! I kept them all. And nowhere did I say I was going to "ruin you" or your business. I don't like writing negative reviews. But when Your unprofessionalism is appalling, I gotta be honest. Maybe you could work on customer service a little? read more

Great service and great value. They re-keyed two locks for me at a small apartment complex. They were on time, polite, friendly and professional. It was also 30% less than a competitors quote. read more

Today's experience was excellent! Alex is organized, reliable, professional and friendly. He showed up in a timely manner, and opened up my front door in a blink of an eye w/o any door lock damage I accidentally locked myself out of my home at 1:00am and I found this company in google I got a flat fee from the beginning. I called other 24 hour locksmith companies before California Locksmith and some wanted to come in the morning, this was an emergency that's why I was calling at 1:00 am while others gave me an estimate fee just to come into the property and they told me that I will have to pay more depending on the service. I didn't see transparency and I had a feeling that they were going to take advantage of the situation and overcharge me, so I kept calling other 24-hr locksmith services and that's how I ended up with California Locksmith The fee I paid was pretty fair for the value of their services and I was able to pay with a credit card I highly recommend this business and I will gladly use their services again when need it Thank you so much California Locksmith for your great work. You were a lifesaver tonite! read more

Alex, the owner was very nice, easy to talk to and knowledgeable. My elderly parents car key was stuck in the driver's door lock of their older BMW X3 and they were worried. My dad didn't who to call to fix it so they were planning to bring it to shop which will probably charge them and arm and a leg. I went to Yelp to see if I could call a locksmith and this was the first place that popped up when I searched for car/ automotive locksmith. I called and Alex answered. I briefly explained the issue and Alex said, " that's a common issue with older BMWs". It never happened to my Toyotas or Lexuses. Anyway, Alex was confident he could fix the problem. Here's the clincher the price he quoted was reasonable. I wanted to make sure, so I called another locksmith. After explaining the issue, the other guy said he can't fix it but he knew someone that could. Ok so who? The other locksmith said call California locksmith!!! I went back to Alex and we arranged for him to work on it. The only hiccup to this was waiting for "the part " needed to arrive. Alex fixed my parents car on a Saturday night in a jiffy plus they got themselves a remote which makes it easier for them to open the car door and trunk! My parents were very happy and I'm happy. Problem solved! Thank you so much Alex. I think I found my locksmith from here on. Never going to call anyone else from now on. I've had a few incidences ( locking myself out of my own house)in past that I needed a locksmith. read more

Alex is the best! We manage an apartment building where the old lock on our front entrance jammed and would not open from the inside after hours on a Friday night. He came within 30 minutes, diagnosed the problem and had the part expressed delivered by Sunday morning. Extremely knowledgeable, friendly and went out of his way to make sure we were satisfied. Thanks, Alex! Michele and Randy read more

Alexis was fast and friendly. A reliable company. Mobile response. Professional work van. Easy to contact. Very nice.

I called the gentlemen to see if he could provide me with a quote and he did. He answered right away and confirmed the copy of the key that I needed and within ten minutes he arrived at my house. He inspected my key and realized I had the wrong one, he had a spare fob and completed the copy of the key without any issues. He programmed the key to my dads car without any issues and had us try it out. Super nice, approachable, explained the entire process and as a plus he spoke Spanish! Thank you for your service!!! read more

I highly recommend this company and will use them in the future if i need to! Thank you so much again!!! read more

So I was locked out a few weeks ago as my new keys did not work. I ended up calling them around 7/7:30 Am and it was $55. I felt it was very reasonable although I'm sure prices are different at different hours. The guy got there probably 10 minutes before his estimated eta which is nice when you are anticipating being in your home. He opened my door quickly. I would recommend this place. They seem professional and just come to do their job, be honest and fair, and leave. Very professional . read more

Alex did an amazing job for me. Responsive, quick, professional and affordable. He refurbished a non-working old mortise lock and made it work beautifully. Saved me several hundred dollars vs replacement and works good as new. Good locksmiths, like good mechanics, plumbers, handymen, etc. are worth their weight in gold. Would definitely recommend Alex to anyone. Can't thank him enough. read more

Called and spoke with Alex. Very nice the phone. So I made and appointment. No call no show. What a waste of time.

Update: After the owner badgered me to remove my comment. He requested another person to give him 5 stars in efforts to raise his review. My experience with this company gets worse as the days go by just because he failed miserably. He insisted he never did any work for me. Which is true,,, since he never showed up and sent me to voicemail. :-( The service from this "company" is the most awful EVER! I located the company and called based on them being the closest in my area. After discussing the details of my needs he advised it would take 30-45 minutes to be at my home. After the wait time for the "24 Hour" company, I texted the company, since this is where he advised me to submit my address to. After no response for 15 minutes, I called the number of service and the guy sent me to voicemail!!! This is the most UNPROFESSIONAL AND DISRESPECTFUL company in the industry. The service was desperately needed and instead I was forced to call another locksmith whom arrived in 15 minutes as stated. I was late to work and could have been on time should I have called the Joseph instead. He was quick, polite and very professional. I recommend him instead! Don't waste your time with this rude, one man service who doesn't respond to texts and sends you to voicemail ... read more

Worst customer service I have experienced in some time. Called him and confirmed an appointment for 12:45 PM a week ago (Friday). At about 1:30 he was a no call no show still. Called a few times between 1:30 - 2:00PM. No pickup and no call back at all. Read the other negative reviews about lack of a call back as well, they are spot on. Never have heard back from the guy until I left a review. read more

Alex is exceptionally knowledgeable about cars and locks. He didn't have the key that I needed, but was able to order it and expedited for me within a couple of days. He was very kind, kept us up-to-date, and he stuck to his quoted price. Anytime I called any other company, the started out with one price and ended with a different price. Alex keep the same price he quoted me, which was affordable & appreciated! He got the job done in less than 15 mins & I haven't had any issues since. I plan on purchasing extra keys from him. Thank you Alex! read more
