My friend had lost his keys to his car late last night. We had called a couple of locksmiths for an estimate but many of them were located too far away, which meant they werent too keen on making the trip out and, if they did, it would cost a lot of money. The job took awhile because of some unexpected issues, but Dave refused to give up. He was on a mission to get us home and he did. I cant thank Dave enough. I was truly touched by his act of kindness and professionalism. You have the biggest heart Dave and thank you for getting us back on the road. read more

Best Locksmith. Very reliable when needed. I highly recommend Draper's Mobile Locksmith Service. Mr. Draper is the best

I'm amazed this company has 5 stars and claiming they're affordable. Whoever I spoke to kept telling me he was 15 minutes away from me and it took 2 hours to get to me and the fucken assholes charged me $200 to get my keys out of my semi. He kept me from hiring someone in town that could have really been there for me in 15 minutes, yet I waited for this fucken idiot...and it wasn't even him it was another worker. I called back and told him it was unfair and that another company was going to charge me $150 and he said he would refund me $50, and he never did. This issue was back in December 2020. Unfortunately I wasn't reminded of this fucken company by looking back on some receipts of mine. To anyone in the area if you want cheaper service call another company besides this one. They're liars. read more

Great service! Very reliable and Quality work. No matter how challenging the job will get done.

Great Communication, Excellent Service, Quality work Fair price, best Locksmith in Winters CA

My keys, along with my car's ignition key got stolen on a Monday night. Tuesday morning I called Draper after being referred to him from the dealership. He was driving when I called so he asked me to text him my information. I was unavailable during a 4.5 hour period of time, but I offered to leave the door key at the office of my apartment complex just in case if he was only available during that time. I would pay him by credit card over the phone once he was done. He told me he had two jobs to do before mine. Not a problem. I texted him asking for an estimate. No response. Again, not a problem. I figured he was probably busy. I came home and there was no evidence of Draper coming over. He didn't respond until the following evening. He told me that he would be able to work on the car on Thursday, and that he would try his best to keep the cost down. After not hearing from him at all on Thursday, I cancelled Friday morning. 3 DAYS? I can't believe it would take over 3 days for someone to be able to help me. Especially when it is a 24 hour service. Luckily I had another car to drive in the meantime. I called another locksmith and he came over right away. He finished the job in less than an hour. read more

I have used Draper's 3 times in my lifetime, and the service is consistently friendly, prompt, and reliable. The first time I used Mr. Draper's service was because my keys were stolen at the gym, and I had to have my apartment unlocked for me by Mr. Draper, followed by a re-keying of my apartment lock and car. Mr. Draper came out promptly and took care of everything. As I recall, he even gave me a break on all the work in light of my situation. Another time I called Drapers because of an emergency situation at my workplace. Mr. Draper was already out with a client, but was able to expedite his response to us. The last time I used Draper's was just a few months ago, when I needed to have some blank keys cut for my Scion tC during the weekend. Because it was at the end of the business day, I drove to Mr. Draper's office in Winters to have the keys cut, after which he even tried NOT to charge me because I was the one who drove out to him. I have and still highly recommend Draper's if you ever need locksmith services. He's an honest and helpful guy! read more

Called this place. He came out on a hot Saturday afternoon after I had been locked out of my house. His white hair, slicked back, and sandals told me this guy was the real deal. Popped the lock open in less then 5, 125$ weekend fee, and we bullshitted a bit in the front yard. Honest, and reliable. Looks like he hits the weights. read more

David did an excellent job making a very difficult key for my vehicle. If you need a locksmith this is the guy!

David came to my house within a half hour of me calling him and was extremely knowledgeable. He worked on my car for about an hour, but was unable to fix the problem. He did not charge me for the service and advised me where to bring my car. I am very pleased with the level of service provided. read more

David Draper is the owner and such a professional sweet man as well! Not to mention he is so awesome at what he does, I had a safety issue and I called after hours around 6:30pm and he was very understanding and while he lives 14 miles or so away he was at my door within 30 min! I am very impressed by the work he did and his knowledge he shared with me safety wise. And his prices for the late service call were very very affordable and very reasonable too! I can sleep safely with my kids at night from now on because of his service! I would recommend anyone seeking any locksmith work being done to look no further and give him a call. I will recommend him to everyone and he has found a life long customer and fan with our family! You will not be disappointed one bit that you chose his services! Great guy I cannot express that enough! read more

Wow! Exceptional service! We use Dave for our locks and keys all the time! He always answers, or calls us right back. I would highly recommend using Drapers Locksmith for your needs!! There is not another Locksmith out there that we would use. read more

Great experience! Dave is friendly, honest, professional and hardworking. Not only did he fix all the locks in the house, he voluntarily offered to help adjust a misaligned deadbolt. He is exactly the type of businessman I would recommend to anyone. I will definitely use him for all of my locksmith needs in the future! He epitomizes what a business should be!!! read more

If you are calling late at night to get your car unlocked, cost a little more. If you can wait until the morning it is cheaper. I called David to unlock my car. For my mazda protege, price was $75 which isn't so bad compared to the late night price of $125. He came all the way out to Davis and easily unlocked my door. No body damage to the car or window! He does accept debit or credit. read more

Based on previous Yelp reviews, I called Dan to put a new lock on our sliding glass door. We kept getting locks from Home Depot and installing them only to have the cheap locking arm break off. Dan determined that part of the problem with the previous door locks was that one of the rollers on the bottom of the door was worn down making the door difficult to align with the locking mechanism. He worked on the door quite some time, getting it to slide and align better; however, eventually we must replace the roller. Anyway, the lock he installed was SO MUCH better than the previous locks, and four months later the door still aligns with the lock. He charged us very little considering all the time he took to make an old door lock again. read more

He is great! Met us at the last minute for spare keys and he worked and worked until he got it right. Price quoted was exactly what he charged, which was just below what others were charging. Highly recommend ! read more

David Draper came out to change two of my locks. He was so friendly and went way beyond what I expected. I was able to call in the morning around 8am and he managed to meet me just four hours later (very short notice). He was even early to my house which was great. He changed my front door and one other lock in about half an hour. He also helped me secure my garage door, which was a bonus! My manual garage door had a broken locking mechanism so David fashioned a piece of metal out of his truck as a make-shift lock. I absolutely recommend! read more

A great service. I called to get a lock adjusted and he was at my house within 15 minutes. And since the job was quickly finished, he fixed two other problems at my house that he noticed. All included in the single service fee. He's a nice guy who really knows what he's doing. read more

I called on a Sunday night and Mr. Draper came over as soon as he finished dinner. He let me back into my apartment in no time. The price was reasonable, and he was very courteous. Although I hope I don't get locked out again, I will call this business again in the future if I have to. TL;DR: Came on Sunday Night. Good person. Good Business. read more

Great service. I needed help getting a new key made for my old car. My lock was old and unruly so it took a lot of extra finessing to make a key that worked. He took the extra time to get it done and for a really really good price. thank you so much. I'll be back. read more

Great, Fast Service. Locked my keys in my car and he was there within 15 minutes to get them out. Charge was $75, and he does take debit and credit. read more

Fast, friendly and efficient. Great locksmith re keyed our doors and added a latch. Great job!

I needed to get my locks changed quickly. Mr.Draper was at my place early the next morning and did a fantastic job on the not very standard locks I had. He's a super nice guy. It was a lot of work, but he charged what he quoted me anyway. I will use him for all my future locksmith needs. read more

I couldn't be more grateful to this man. I locked my keys in my trunk. I spent an hour and a half trying to go through my insurance and calling locksmith after locksmith only to receive poor service from everybody, until I found Draper's service. He was on the job in Woodland, finished his job quickly there, and then drove immediately to where I was in Davis. He was very considerate and even took care to try unlocking my car without scratching the tinted windows (which he was successful at!). My day was going poorly, but he made it better just by his excellent service. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Great service. Was on time and really nice to talk to. He accepts cards via square and did NO damage to my escalade that I locked my keys into. If your in Davis and need a locksmith do not hesitate to call. read more

This site gives the wrong phone number, which calls the wrong company, which is not honest about the fact that you've called the wrong company. If you want to call Dave Draper, call (530)756-6263. read more

He had just arrived somewhere else when he said that he could turn out and help me and then go back to what he was doing so that I could quickly get help. Everywhere else I called said it would have been at least 3 hours, but Draper showed up in 20 minutes, even though he didn't have to. So very considerate, and a super nice guy. If I lock myself out of my car again, I know who to call. read more

An upstanding guy. Was willing to go out of his way to help me out. Cared more about doing the job right than just getting paid. Not many business guys I would trust more! read more

Mr. Draper himself came to help me. I called for my commercial work truck for rekeying. Mr. Draper provided same day service in order for me to return to work the next day through his busy schedule. Several other companies denied to help me with my situation. I recommend using his services. You need a blue-collar humorous attitude though with these locksmiths. Its tedious mental work. Price was expensive, but for the services, its worth it; fortunately my employer paid the cost for services. read more

Dave was great!! He went above and beyond to help me out. I don't normally do Yelp reviews, but if you're shopping for a locksmith drapers is the best around. After speaking with Dave I knew he was the one that could help me out. I came from the Bay Area,and I will anytime I need a locksmith. That should say a lot! Very professional read more

Draper's locksmith is the best. He fixed our old front door lock and suggested a replacement to order. I got a different brand so couldn't use our existing keys. He spent time in the back of his van trying to find a cylinder that would fit our new lock. He goes way beyond what he needs to do. read more

On 7.21.16 I locked my keys in my truck...(it happens) Problem was that I was in Canyon Creek Resort a few miles out of Winters, ca. and it was close to 5 o'clock! Since there is spotty (at best) cell service there and we only had the one vehicle we walked up to the payphone. Steve from the park was kind enough to look up Dave's number for us and the store let us use their phone (key and money locked in truck). I contacted Dave and he said it would take about 1.5hrs. though as he was in the middle of another job. He showed up in about 1.5hrs. as he said he would. Unlocked our truck in minutes!! and he's one heeluva nice guy to boot. We actually spent more time talking than it took him to unlock the truck. I highly recommend Dave and his company for any and all of your locking/unlocking needs. Great job Dave. Thanks Cliff and Gena read more

Thanks Dave for getting out there in the middle of the night and getting the job done quickly.

David Draper is AWESOME. I have locked myself out a few too many times, had to have my locks changed, etc. etc. and he has been awesome every single time. He is prompt, friendly and trustworthy. Even if it's a tough lock to open, he gets it every time. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone!! read more

David is the man! Locked myself out of my room, I called him, he came within 10 minutes and quickly picked the lock! Very personable guy and price was cheaper than a few other locksmiths I called. Give him a call! read more

I will tell everyone I can NEVER TO USE THIS COMPANY! Long story short guy in picture came to unlock my car through my roadside assistance as soon as he found out I wouldn't give him anymore out of pocket he yelled screamed at me called me names and said ha ha I got the $50 from your company now see who helps you and speed off acting like a maniac. HE NEEDS SERIOUS COUNSELING. WAS ALREADY upset and alone this was the last thing I needed. read more

Mr.Draper showed up 20mins later after I called and opened my truck in 10 minutes. Was very nice and even showed me a little trick to open my truck if it ever happened again. read more

Well it took him about 1 hour to get to my place, a bit long but that's not a huge deal. He said that he would just pick the lock and do it right. He tried to open the lock for about 45 minutes, which he ultimately failed to do so. It seemed as if he didn't know what he was doing. Then he forced the door open, damaging the frame, the door itself, and the door lock. After I pointed out the damages, he just yelled at me. What kind of businessman yells at a customer? read more
