    These guys saved my a**. I was moving to SF and the movers were scheduled to arrive at 3pm. At 2:30 PM I realized my lock was stuck and if I couldn't get into my house I would rack up crazy expenses with the movers. I called DS Locksmith on a Saturday and within 25 minutes someone came to let me into my home. I thought the prices were reasonable and the fact that they got here in 25 minutes from calling them is impressive. I would definitely use them again.

    Gal was AWESOME. I live in Dublin and called him to help my elderly parents and elderly caregiver,…read morewho doesn't speak English, in San Francisco. I explained to Gal that I would not be able to meet him in SF and if he could correspond with me over the phone to discuss what needed to be done while he was on site. I had originally wanted him to disable the buttons on the mortise lock because we thought my dad was activating it, locking the exterior latch, and preventing my parents' caregiver from entering each morning. Gal saved us a lot of money by explaining that all that was needed to be done was to turn the key one extra turn. Gal also adjusted the door because it was hard to close at times and smoothed out the caregiver's keys to make it easier to unlock the door. Gal did great work, but what really stood out to me is what a great quality human being Gal is. Not only was he understanding of the situation with me living so far away, but he showed the caregiver how to open the door if it's locked from inside, took a video of the process so I could share it with the caregiver in case she forgets, had us on speaker phone because the caregiver doesn't speak English so I could help translate. His patience and understanding is of the highest quality, saying that we will all be that age at some point. He was very respectful to my elderly dad and caregiver. Gal is highly recommended! I would use him again in a heartbeat!

He is…read moreunprofessional, a liar, and lacks the ability to communicate or understand what is communicated to him. His techs, who I don't have an issue with, failed to download a software on to my new work computer months ago and said they'd come back. They didn't. I followed up, they didn't reschedule, and I didn't press on them because the software was still on my old work computer, which I actively used while waiting for them to let me know when they'd come back. I no longer have access to that program on my old work computer as of Friday 7/10. Since it was close to the end of day (and I was out on Monday 7/13) I reported this to them on the morning of Tuesday 7/14. To this day, his techs haven't resolved this. They don't have the appropriate server information (which they should have..it's their own system) so they can't download it on to my new work computer or get me access to my old comp's software program. Since 7/13, I have had 3 requests to program FOBS. Today Jimmy told me he can have his office program them for us, but would charge us a fee, even though their office incurs no charges to perform this, because he claims that I could have programmed them before the system went down. Wtf??? I have no idea where he came up with that wildly inaccurate assumption, since the requests to program fobs came in AFTER the system went down. I do not want to get charged a fee to do something that takes seconds to do. And if he is justifying the charge because of some made up assumption he had, then absolutely NO we should not get charged for this. I'm happy to wait until they resolve this issue and get the system downloaded on to my computer. At this point, I am not confident they can as they have failed to offer any options or insight as to when I can expect this to get resolved. This is a proprietary system so i can't just have another vendor resolve this for us. Again, no issue with their staff, but Jimmy displayed a complete disregard to any and all information I provided directly to him, then lied and accused me of something false just to justify charging me fees to temporarily resolve an issue his office should resolve. Aside from that, the way he talked to me was absolutely disgusting and dismissive. He kept saying he had this really big important job and even though I kindly said he can call me back when convenient for him, he was visibly annoyed and said "no no, I won't call you back." Jimmy, you're a piss poor representation of your business and it would behoove you to work on your communication skills. What a displeasurable and disappointing experience it is working with you.
