One guy transferred me to another guy who transferred me to another guy. After I got transferred to the first "technician" they told me to take a photo of the lock and key but then after that guy transferred me to the next person, he said a photo won't matter because he has to look at it in person. They ended up replacing the cylinder but why was it $400... these services should only cost around 100-200 MAX. Then he gave me a link to review him on Google and tell me why the company that the link leads me to is a completely different company??? His company was Yellow Diamond Locksmith. Then he kept messaging me to give him a 5-star review multiple times.

I'll preface this in that for being a lock smith they have odd business hours. Meaning, I'm not…read moreentirely sure when they're open. I feel like they close fairly early. So don't expect it to be past 5-6pm. And they are INSANELY expensive. I want to chalk it up and say its just Manhattan. I need to expect this. But I don't think I've ever spent more than $2-3 per key on keys before in my life up until this point. Here, they charge you or at least they charged me $10 a key. Plus tax and a surcharge for using credit. So I paid about $34 to have a set of keys copied. I've also had to do this as an emergency more than once because there are no other lock smiths nearby and it just simply needed to get done. So I guess it gets stars for the convenience that it's simply here.

Went to have keys duplicated for my brother's new apartment…read more At Home Depot they told me that they don't do "Medico" or "Corbin Russwin," keys. They suggested I go to the locksmith at 7th Avenue near 22nd Street. Went there. The person at the counter attempted to make the keys. The person asked me if the "Medico" key is for an elevator saying something to the effect that their blanks are not exactly like the Medico key I handed them. But they made the keys and I went to see if the keys worked at my brother's apartment. The ones for the deadbolt lock did not. Next day went back to SOS Locksmith. There was a different person at the desk. I explained how I bought two copies of two different keys, and the "Medico" keys just do not fit into keyhole of the deadbolt lock. The person behind the desk said that the keys are all the same. No reason why they would not work, and furthermore, it is a cost to the shop to make another set of duplicate keys . (Wouldn't it be a cost to me to keep the keys even if they don't work?). I told the person behind the desk that if I could show to him that the duplicate keys do not work, I would, but would he come with me several blocks away to the building where the deadbolt lock is? He refused to listen and just insisted that the duplicate and original keys are all the same and asked me if I was sure I had the right keys, and was I sure whether I used the right amount of pressure in inserting the key in the keyhole? I replied that I tried everything I could but the duplicate keys do not go in the keyhole. I then said that maybe it is best not to take a chance, and to just refund my money because making other duplicates may mean that I would only have to come back, and it is an inconvenience to me since it is Saturday, the store is closed on Sunday and I would have to wait until Monday, and I do not live nearby. Even if I were to come back later in this very day it is also a hassle, but the person behind the desk did not listen and said that he is not arguing with me (he actually was) but only telling me how it is, and maybe one of his employees who made the keys the previous day might have made an error, but the store does not give refunds when keys fail once, a customer has to have the keys re-done and then if they fail a second time, then the customer can get a refund. So the person behind the desk made duplicate keys for me. I had to go back to the building in which I had to try the keys, and I actually took the precaution of using my cell phone to video-record myself trying to use the duplicate keys . The keys did not work. I called the store and told them that the duplicate keys did not work. The person over the phone who probably was a different person from the one at the desk I dealt with earlier, just said that the store is open until 6 PM. I had to go back out several blocks to the store. I had other things to do. It was a hot day, and I am past middle age, but no use waiting until Monday to do this. When I entered the store a different person was at the desk tending to customers. This other person was more cooperative in trying to be of help but I stated that I have a video on my cell phone showing how the duplicate keys did not work. The other person behind the desk said that there is no need to see the video and that he himself was not at the desk earlier, but he wants to resolve the issue. He asked me something about whether I tried the keys in 'this" building (meaning the building the store is part of). I told him that the building I had to try the keys in, is located at near 42nd Street . Then the person told me that the original "Medico" key actually is of a type that only the building management that gave it to me, can provide a duplicate of. My money was refunded. This is an abbreviated account. It seems to me that the person who kept telling me that the duplicate keys are all the same, was being hard headed and it actually does not matter if the keys "are all the same." It does not matter if the same machine was used to make them. It does not matter if a certain kind of blank is used to make duplicates for the original key. It seemed that the guy kept disparaging me and trying to make it seem as if I am some malcontent idiot who has absolutely nothing to do but waste my time and waste his time by coming into the store and just complain. The fact is that the duplicate keys, alike or not, did not work. No reason for me to make that up. I cannot say that I would recommend that others go to this place. I had read reviews on Google and Yelp! There are a good amount of positive reviews and I hoped I could be among those but it turned out otherwise. BY the way, I am notorious for giving bad reviews to businesses on Google, Yelp! Trustpilot and certain others. I also give good reviews where they are due.

I originally left a positive review for this business because the worker who came out to install my…read morepeephole camera seemed to try his best. He appeared to work hard and I genuinely appreciated his effort. However, after seeing the end result more clearly, I've realized the job was left incomplete and unprofessional--the area around the installation was left damaged and unfinished (see attached photo). Looking back, I wish the worker had been honest up front and told me if he wasn't able to handle this type of installation. Instead, the job was done poorly, and I was left with a mess to fix. It's disappointing, because I was understanding and respectful during the appointment, at the end I offered water and a bathroom break since he seemed frustrated. I did not receive any follow-up or acknowledgment for my original review, which makes this experience even more frustrating. If you are considering using this business for peephole camera installation, I would recommend asking for examples of similar work first and ensuring they are truly qualified before hiring.

He would not budge on the price even though I was coming out of my way to meet him. Would recommend a kiosk over this guy. Since Sergio decided to comment on the above review, I decided to add to my review: I went to a KeyMe kiosk in Brooklyn on Sunday and I received the keys in my mailbox by Wednesday morning. I paid $53.15 for 4 keys. That's actually only $13.28 per key, and they work. Also, if any don't work, KeyMe at least replaces them for you. Attached is the receipt. I was coming from 3 hours away to get this copy made and Sergio wouldn't budge on the price even though there was no way to test the key right when I got it and he also wanted me to pay in cash. Since he doesn't take card, if the key didn't work, and he didn't replace it for me, I wouldn't even be able to dispute it with my credit card since I would have paid cash. Overall, he was just plain rude while messaging me and unhelpful. He comment to my review was also rude.
