*apparently this review never posted but I came back to move it from my drafts because David deserves the praise: This place is absolutely amazing. I contacted them because the metal part of my key broke off and got lost. Not only did they respond at 1045 last night they offered to come fix it then. I told David I didn't want him having to come out that late and I could wait until the morning. He showed up around 8 am as promised and was incredibly fast and friendly. The prices we read more

Client called for lock change order in Allen. They arrived within 15 minutes and was complete in 30 mins fixing five locks.

My new-to-me car only came with 1 car fob. DML ( the Allen office) said they could come in 30 minutes, which they did. The nicest young man had the correct 5 fob (remote start, push button start, trunk, open & shut doors). It took him about 20-30 minutes to program the new fob. The new fob works great and the young man (I can't remember his name) explained everything and showed me it worked. I tested the functions myself too before he left. This made for a nice morning and now I wish I hadn't stressed about it for the last week or two. I'm glad I didn't go to a dealership where I would have had to leave my car. I will certainly use them if I need a locksmith in the future. read more

Requested to program two set of keys for my car . This young man was late and super rude . also cut the keys before programming the remote controls and couldn't finish the job . I was left out with two set of cut keys that not able to return because they are now cut and control wasn't programmed . he charged me 40$ for a job that wasn't complete , I can't return the keys so lost the money on that as well . now I have to call somebody else order new keys and spend more money . thank you for the disservice. read more

DML Locksmith Services - The driver goes around with a little dog. - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Allen, Texas

Quick and easy service. Professional service at a great value. Would definitely recommend them.

Please let me know if I am off base here but I feel like there may have been price gouging happen here. I am moving into a new home. They charged me $929 to rekey 8 deadbolt locks. I think it took about an hour. These were simple cylinder deadbolt locks that he popped out in a matter of minutes, took out to his truck to rekey and then reinstalled them. This was not an emergency call or after hours. Was middle of the day. The work was done well but $929 for 8 locks? Seems way too expensive to me. And they included a $49 service fee and their checkout system directed my wife to have to leave a tip that took the bill over $1,000. I will own the fact I failed to shop around or agree to their price but future customers beware, this is stratospheric pricing for simple job. If this is typical pricing across locksmiths I will delete this review (and invest in opening a locksmith business). read more

DML Locksmith Services - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Allen, Texas

See all

Called for a free estimate to install a "smart lock". First, they are super-responsive and VERY nice folks. My locksmith was David & he provided me with a Waze tracker to see where he was en route. Got there at the exact time he said. Next: he had the lock set that I wanted, but here is where it sour. He quoted me $400+ for a lock set that was listed on Google as half that. I told him I would pay the service call but I wasn't going to pay that. He went to his truck to talk to his "managers" and reduced it. Install went well, but I will not be recommending due to the pricing. read more

This place is a very terrible. DML Locksmith have old keys, each building posted on website and other websites are fake. Drove to the location and it's other businesses there and it looks like they photoshop their business on the windows online. Talked to the manager and owner and they hung up in my face and didn't wanna help. My key worked but was disconnected in a week and they never tried to help me fixed a $382.00. I wish I can continue without giving them a star or half of a star, because they deserve a flat zero. Reported to BBB!! read more

Best service we've received! Here within 10 minutes of calling. Unlocked the house in less than 10 minutes. Friendly and professional service after hours on a Friday night. Thank you! Regarding the price for comparison purposes, we paid $30 service call and $95 lockout fee. read more

I had been having trouble with my front door lock. David came out and fixed it all right up. Made new keys to the house and everything!! He was quick and professional!! read more

So this place is either on site or appointment only. I wasn't aware of that when I messaged the company on Facebook. All I needed was a couple of keys copied. David, the owner, met me at their location at 6:15 pm to make 3 keys for a grand total of 6 dollars. The fact that he went out of his way for such a small task says a lot of about this business and how important customer service is. I hope I never need a locksmith for a more significant task, but if I should I definitely know who I will call. read more

Great service! David answered my call and was at my home within 30mins. He was able to repair the front door in no time. Will call him again! read more

Omg what a lifesaver this company is. I walked outside in my robe with a glass of wine to watch the incoming tornado only to find myself walked out. Husband was out of town and with only 6% battery on my phone I called this company while panicking. It was less than 15 minutes before they arrived and safely and harmlessly broke me back into my home. Was extremely reasonable and ridiculously fast. read more

Fast, easy, went out of his way to "fix" our existing keys as well. I would recommend this company, and if needed, I will use them again. read more

We were in need of programming a new RKE transmitter for a 2017 GMC Sierra. We spoke to DML and a gentleman quoted us $125 for the work. We called the GMC dealer and they quoted us $65 for the same exact work of programming an RKE fob. So please be aware that it appears that this business is way over charging the uneducated consumers. I have read all of the reviews and did my homework. The only difference between the two providers was cost. Both required a trip and an appointment. Buyers beware read more

I called them late in the day and within 30 minutes they were sitting in my drive way and had my door unlocked. Nice to deal with over the phone and in person, and did not charge me a fortune. Very pleased and will definitely use them again ! read more

locked out, they came in 30 min and opened the door. they were quick and did good job. I am happy and reccomend them

Great customer service. Fair price quote. Followed up with a message on what to look out for while price shopping. Highly recommend.

David took great care of us. We needed extra keys made and he accommodated our schedule. I would highly recommend using them! Great service.

I recently purchased a home and needed a locksmith to rekey all the locks. After requesting a quote via Yelp, David responded within minutes and was able to provide same day service. David was quick and very efficient. I definitely recommend DML services. read more

I needed by locks changed the same day. I called in the morning, got a call back within 5 mins and they were at my house 2 hours later. Fast, courteous and professional. Great experience. read more

Great fast service. Was able to schedule him and arrive within an hour. Would be 5 stars but if you need a new lock, best to buy yourself for a fraction of the price. Other than that, his rates are on par while his efficiency is above the rest. Would definitely use his services again! read more

David was super quick to respond (I love that he used the in-message chat inside Yelp), sent his location as he was in transit to the house and was very professional and courteous and did a fantastic job in rekeying our entire house. Would definitely use again if we need it. read more

I would highly recommend DML Locksmith services. They answered my call immediately on a Sunday morning and came out quickly to unlock our truck. read more

David is the best! Great communication, efficient, and polite. He is great at what he does and is more than fair with his customers. It's hard to find good, honest people these days, so the ones you meet leave a lasting impression. He is definitely one of these people, and I would recommend his services to anyone. read more

The deadbolt on my front door lock with keypad broke. I saw the reviews online for DML and called. David answered the phone promptly and I explained my problem. He said he could come over and checked on my safety (wanted to know if I was locked out). I reassured him I was fine. Within a few minutes, he texted me a Waze estimate of his arrival at our home. Once here, he moved efficiently and professionally at repairing the lock. After that was completed, he even offered to look at out stubborn back door lock. For such fast and courteous service, I thought his price was incredibly fair. He really does a great job, especially when probably most of his customers are pretty stressed! He's very honest and reliable! read more

I just had this company come out to rekey my home. When the tech showed up he was already agitated because he got lost on the way over, so we were already off on the wrong foot. He started on rekeying the door and when he went to put the deadbolt back on he said that it was stripped and he couldn't put it back; though it had worked perfectly prior to removing it. He made 2 attempts then said he needed to take a break and went to his truck for 15 minutes and came back to try one last time. Then, he said he couldn't do it and that I'd need to purchase a new lock. Leaving me with no lock and a hole in the door where the previous one was. Then he asked how I'd like to pay. Naturally, I was taken by surprise as he hadn't done anything more than break my lock. Furthermore, I was able to put the lock back on MYSELF and it was not stripped, it just took patience. I have called and let them know I will pay for the service since the lock does work, however, I have not heard back. read more

We just bought two Yale smart locks, but we weren't confident we could do the installation correctly, plus we needed another dead bolt lock. I called DML late in the day, and they fit me in for the next morning. David was the smith, and he was wonderful. Very professional, efficient and neat. Super nice too. He also re-keyed the new locks to match the key for all our others, plus repaired a dead bolt that was working so hard we could barely turn it. Highly recommend David and his family owned DML locksmiths! read more

I discovered this place on Yelp and made a call. Amazing, it too took just few hours for them to come and enable me to open the room entryway. The representative was indeed a professional, he's nice and thorough. I can't be more happy with the service I got. He also made an extra keys for me. Much obliged to you guys! read more

Was locked out of my car, they were super responsive, my car was open no more than 30 minutes after I called with no issues!

My son lock his car keys in his trunk ! I call DML the man call David was really nice and professional. He text me how far he was and keep contact with us until he found my son car then he open the door with a balloon bag and everything was done in 10 min ! The price was good . I recommended good customer service read more

They got to my home within 30 min of me calling and asking them to come change my locks ! Very affordable and fast service he changed the lock in barely 5 min . I would definitely recommend using this company ! read more

I have communicated with David the technician and he insists that he told me the price would be $350 for one replacement car key. That is absolutely not true. I would have laughed at him if it was. I have myself to blame for being careless and not getting the price correctly in advance and not looking closely at the receipt before signing it. My bad. Looking online I see that keys like this seem to start at $90 or so by other locksmiths. I would not consider that to be unreasonable given the tools required to program the new key into the car computer; however, $350 feels like extortion to me for one lousy car key and 45 minutes of locksmith work. read more

David responded very quickly and got to my house in less than 30 mins. Great service and prices are really good.

I called DML and within 15min David was there with my door open. Very fast and worked with me on the price.

Fast, Very friendly, and good priced. I would recommend to any friend. He came all the way from Allen to Denton in about 30 minutes and did ECU flashing in 10 minutes. read more

Fast, Friendly, and Professional Service. Glad I came to Yelp to find a quality Locksmith. DO NOT GOOGLE for one. You don't know who is coming. It's a call center that bids out the work to any locksmith on their service. David was awesome. Had my new car key programmed and running in minutes at a fair price! Highly Recommended!!!! read more

I called DML early on Memorial Day when all other locksmiths seemed to be closed. They immediately came out within one hour and got all my locks changed very quickly. I had changed my locks before and DML was considerably cheaper. I would recommend to use them if you need quick, cost efficient, courteous service. read more

The locksmith arrived a few minutes earlier than we expected did a great job, professional and polite. We will call them again if we ever need it again. read more

Don't have a need for a Locksmith very often but I will definitely remember this company. Reasonable, quick, efficient - professional. So glad I used them! read more
