If you're looking for a locksmith, look no further! I have to admit, I was skeptical - sometimes you don't know if you can trust how high the reviews are - are the bad ones hidden or perhaps they are fake reviews? But I can attest that my experience with Chicago Locksmiths was all I could have hoped for and more. Aedan was phenomenal - I called because I needed to get an electronic lock installed. He not only set up time to come by, but he proactively recommended electronic locks to me, steering me towards a better lock than the one I planning to install. After I looked further into it, he saved me the hassle of having to get additional hardware to use with the other lock I was planning to go with. That's above and beyond service in my opinion. Response time was pretty much immediate and Aedan was able to come out same day without an extra charge. Also, he was so patient throughout all my questions - just amazing customer service. Anytime I have any lock issues, I will be reaching back out to Chicago Locksmiths. read more

I had a specialty lock on a motorcycle luggage set that no one had a blank for (after multiple attempts). I went to Chicago Locksmith on Diversey - Xavier spent 20 minutes researching it and ended up finding an option which had to be special ordered. The blanks arrived and worked perfectly! The service was thoughtful, friendly and fast! Thank you Xavier! read more

Nick was amazing! He had me in my apartment in less than 30 minutes of my initial call. Super awesome dude.

They helped with making a key for a file cabining - based on the model number. They were fast and friendly. The key maker also told me- just to get one made to make sure it worked before I bought multiples- that was refreshing to see. He didn't want me to waste money, in case the key didn't work for some reason. Good guys- read more

Amazing service. The gentleman who helped us was straightforward and helpful. We just wanted to replace the locks on our condo (front door, back door, and deck door) with three new that were keyed alike. He explained that we probably didn't need the super-high-end lock he had in stock, and sent us over to Crafty Beaver to get some perfectly good Schlage, and then came back to the Locksmith to have them re-keyed. Saved us money! read more

Jacari I appreciate the quick response, very professional and efficient. Would recommend to anyone. read more

Prompt efficient service, reasonable prices! After a request through Yelp for help with a malfunctioning deadbolt lock, I soon received a response to call their office. They were able to send a technician out the same afternoon. Although the technician worked at fixing the old lock, it still did not function as well as I would've liked, so then I decided to just have him install a new lock. He did that in no time at all & explained everything as he went along. I am happy with this service & my new lock! read more

Locked myself out and had the smoothest experience with Chicago Locksmiths. Their office quickly responded, the locksmith was very communicative - gave me a time frame, let me know how far away he was, and kept to his time frame. Had me back inside my home in no time! read more

After posting a review, Chicago Locksmiths reached out to apologize. They refunded the key that didn't work PLUS compensation for my time and gas coming into the store. I didn't ask for that, and this update was not required to receive it. My takeaway from this experience is that Chicago Locksmiths is a company that cares about their reputation and is willing to do the right thing when they make a mistake. read more

I can't describe how amazing the service was. Noah literally made my day and made the process easy and talked me through what was needed. I was so worried about how this would go and he just really did a great job. If we could ask for techs personally he would do all the associations work. I am making sure to let my fellow HOA's in the neighborhood know about this company and the customer service that was provided. I unfortunately can't remember the young lady I spoke to name prior to talking to the technician but she also was amazing. Thank you so much for your services. read more

Jacari was very helpful and knowledgeable. He did a great job in changing our locks and explaining the unique features of the locks and doors in our new home. read more

I got locked out of my car and called AAA to help me get into my car. After an hour and no luck, the AAA technician left and told me I'd probably have to tow my car. I called Chicago Locksmiths and they were there within a half hour, and they got me into my car in less than 5 minutes. Highly recommend--will definitely call Chicago Locksmiths first if this ever happens again. read more

Went to their Diversey location to arrange to have a lock installed. Was told that they would call back with a service date/time within an hour. After four days I received no phone call. So I called them back and they had no record of my order, phone number, location..nothing. Apparantly the branch offices have no connection to the head office and vice versa. Everything is done on paper - apparantly no computers, no text, no communication among the branches. I finally called them. Tried to get the Diversey location where I started but NO, not possible. Got bounced to their phone answering services. I was very rudely placed on long hold 3 times before even describing my problem. Finally got a person (who was very curt with me). They apparently finally got on the phone with the guy from Diversey store and figured out my order. We'll see what happens next. But their phone customer service is abysmal and phone staff are rushed and rude. Thought I'd try them as they opened location near my house. Big mistake. Back to Ashland Lock next time. Much better customer service. read more

Walter did a great job. He was very easy to work with. Showed up right on time and was very professional.

What a lifesaver! I accidentally locked my keys in my apartment as I was leaving for the airport. I called Chicago Locksmiths to schedule an appointment for when I got home, and they met me as my ride pulled up. Walter worked fast, 5 minutes and I was in. Excellent service! Hoping I don't get locked out again, but I know who to call if I do. read more

Great service! Walter was fast, polite and friendly! He showed up in 10 minutes and opened our door in a second.

To be honest the whole idea of a locksmith gives me nightmares. However, my experience with this establishment was any but a nightmare. Pros: - schedule was really easy, I was in a jam and they arrived on time 30 mind after my call - technician was very friendly read more

Great Company, my car would not operate and I thought it was my key fob. Robert from Chicago Locksmiths came out promptly and worked hard to make me keys to my car door , which I no longer had. He then determined it was not the fob that was the problem and that probably it was my car battery and assisted me with this as well. Thank you Robert with minivan license "Car Keys" and thanks Chicago Locksmith for saving the day!!! read more

We had Sky from Chicago Locksmiths come and perform work for the back gate of our building. Sky was kind, professional and absolutely transparent about the work that needed be done. (No hidden costs or nonsense.) Sky even pointed out where someone had attempted to pry both locks in order to break in. I'll definitely be calling Chicago Locksmiths for all my future locksmith needs. read more
