David did such a meticulous job. He was fast to respond, communicated clearly, and didn't try to upsell me. The locks are high quality and easy to use. David paid attention to details and recommended the right handles for my elderly parents. He went above and beyond putting in the locks for us. He spent time to fix our doors and the existing fixtures. I'll recommend him to anyone looking for a locksmith. read more

Wow! David went above and beyond. Called in the afternoon for a re-key and he arrived same day as promised. Pricing on point. Courteous, timely, and very professional. Highly recommend. read more

Our door handle broke making it impossible to open our door from the outside. I contacted Golden Locksmith here on Yelp and got an immediate response from David. After sending a few pictures of our problem to David, gave me an assessment, a price, and an appointment within just a few minutes. On appointment day, he showed up in the earlier part of his time range he gave me. He texted when he was on the way and was here for about 20 minutes. He explained everything as he did it and he installed everything so that I do not have another problem in a short time. He also kept insisting on cleaning up the drill dust even after I said I'd take care of it!! Great service, very professional, and super friendly!! read more

Fast and friendly they did a great job and affordable. They did what they said they were going to do. I will ues again

David provided excellent service all-around: superb communications, prompt and professional work rekeying, repairing and cleaning all my locks, reprogramming my garage door opener remotes, and providing great advice regarding several of my questions on home security. I then recommended him to a close friend who had a similar excellent experience at her home! Both of us are extremely appreciative of David's great work and for him going above and beyond! I HIGHLY recommend David as a top-notch locksmith!!! 10 stars from me!! read more

If I could rate higher I would! Look no farther than Golden Locksmiths for all of your locksmithing needs! :-) David arrived promptly was very kind, explained thoroughly what the problem was, and fixed our lock within minutes! We are a small business and having to be closed because we can't open the door for customers is a big problem! I called three locksmiths before Golden Locksmiths, starting with the closest to me. After reviewing my photo, each said they were unable to help - that I would need to replace the whole door. David came immediately after I called and had our door working before the busiest part of our business day began! read more

Extremely responsive and flexible with scheduling. After contacting a few other locksmiths who could "fit me in next week since it wasn't an emergency", I was taken care of in a respectful and timely matter, very refreshing. I'd highly recommend. read more

David is really responsive, quick and efficient! He was able to help us unlock the old deadbolt that was no longer working.

Fantastic. Called them to replace 3 locks in our new home that we just moved to. They happened to be in the area and showed up within the hour. David was super knowledgeable, professional and did a great job. He wore double masks and was also friendly and trustworthy. read more

Great COVID precautions: two masks and two gloves! Very knowledgeable: explained my locks and how to prevent them from auto-locking me out in the future. Plus lots of other great advice. Very professional: Didn't just break my locks and asked me to verify my key still works after he unlocked it before he left Amazingly fast: Got here in under 20 min, despite my place being hard to find, then unlocked the door in less than 5 more Great guy: very calm and professional tone from David as he eased some of my nerves from the frustration of being locked out. Friendliest locksmith I've ever met. Honestly, nothing could have made this experience any better. He made a bad situation, good. Nothing to be improved. Keep up the great work, David! read more

David went above and beyond to help me get a guest bedroom door unlocked. My situation was a non-emergency but he responded to my request in minutes and offered a very reasonable timeframe to come handle the issue. He had the door opened in less than 5 minutes. I thought his fees were reasonable and better than I was expecting. David works at a level of excellence. He is polite, kind and an outstanding professional. I recommend his services and will definitely work with him again for any locksmith needs. read more

He said it was an emergency and he just wanted me to be safe. Wow, how awesome is that! Thank you very much, Dave. Now we can sleep in peace tonight!

David was FANTASTIC!!! I called needing locks changed due to a rental. I needed it done right away but knew it was a late Thursday and most likely would have to wait until the following week. To my surprise I called Golden Locksmith (David) he said he was booked until the following Tuesday, but because of my location he could fit me in the next day. He texted me with a 20 min window. He was there on time. Very pleasant. Very professional. Made extra keys and cleaned up. I would Definitely recommend his service. He is our new Locksmith going forward. Thank you David!!!! read more

Very efficient and efficient. Will not hesitate to get David to work on other project. Highly recommend. read more

David is the real deal when it comes to locksmith. This is the second we have used him. He is responsive and knows what he's doing. He may not be the cheapest but it's worth the extra few bucks. He showed me how the previous ocksmiths only rekey the first two tabs in a lock, he does all five and can repair existing locks. The dude is talented. Do it right the first time and give David a call. read more

Thank you Thank you Thank you David ! You are the most professional and and experienced Locksmith I've ever worked with. You called me right back, got me on your books as soon as you could. You of course changed our locks, but then you went well beyond cleaning out the area of the lock, adding a couple of things like fixing a handle that you did not have to do...but you did! You wiped everything down with sanitizer wipes. I plan to tell my neighbors and friends about the superb job you did! Thank you!!! read more

First time I needed to open a locked filing cabinet, as I lost the key. He was super helpful and I really appreciated his knowledge and willingness to help me out.

Have used their services for two different issues, changing our front door and patio locks when we first moved into our home and then again almost a year later when we here having issues for one of the bedroom doors.

I am preparing to get my house painted and they are going to refinish my front door. I was very late in realizing that it would be a good idea to upgrade our entire lock system prior to the painting. With only a few days left until the painting started, I found David and I am so grateful. He is very good at what he does and his services are in high demand. He was kind enough to work hard to squeeze us into his booked up schedule to help us get a new lock installed prior to the painting. I knew nothing about door locks except that mine was very out of date and that I wanted a commercial grade lock. David was great at communicating with me about his arrival and is happy to provide any education needed so you are comfortable with your decision. Our 30 year old lock configuration presented a bit of a challenge but he had a couple of options for us so that none of the old holes showed. He adjusted many little extra things I wouldn't have thought of. Then he stayed until he was sure that my new smart lock app was installed, updated and working. He even threw in two extra keys. If you are planning on making the investment to improve your home security then I recommend partnering with David. He wants happy customers and he has one in me. I will be having him come out again to rekey all the locks in my home. read more

An amazing person to work with with pure good intentions! Provided friendly and highest quality customer service and very reasonable price.

My husband and I are so impressed with how quickly he came. He was fast, efficient and very kind. He was immediately able to help us out. We highly recommend this company! read more

I cannot say enough good things about David. He is so quick to respond, very professional and knowledgeable. His work is precise and neat and he explained all my options. Pricing was very reasonable and the job was done quickly and he had lots of options available right in his truck. I cannot recommend him enough, I live in Portola section and he's just on Alton, very close. If you are in the irvine area don't go to anyone else. read more

Extremely professional and prompt service. I can't say enough good things about this locksmith. When I called for my house locks to be rekeyed an appointment was set exactly at the time I requested, a follow up text was sent to confirm. He also called 30 minutes before arriving, was on time, very nice and professional to deal with, and made the extra keys right then for me. GREAT SERVICE! read more

My 2 year old managed to deadbolt the the garage door and lock himself in the house on a Sunday night. I was frantic and I called the first business that pulled up on yelp, which was Golden Locksmith. The lady who I spoke with said that she could send a technician and his ETA was 20 minutes. A minute later I got a text from David, he said that due to urgency of the situation he would take toll road and get here ASAP (15 minutes). David tried to open the door without damaging the lock/door, but since my son has full deadbolted the door, he was unable too. David was able to open the door and reunited me with my precocious toddler within minutes of his arrival and he also replaced my lock, matched the lock to my original key and gave me 2 copies of the key. David was quick to respond, courteous and professional. I would 100% recommended David and his services. read more

David was amazing. What do I mean by amazing? On time! Courteous! Professional! Patient and provided a competing price but most importantly he was there when I truly needed him and didn't make me wait. I had him rekey 16 plus doors because I made a mistake in ordering so he saved my butt with my customer. Thank you Golden Locksmith! The best read more

No price on piece of mind! They came quickly to rekey my door after regular business hours. I think about 20 minutes. My technician David was so helpful and kind enough to rekey and fix the lock as it was not going all the way through. He also provided more safety features. It was a blessing to have found them and I am extremely thankful! read more

David was on time, helpful and went above and beyond for us! He was also very respectful of our office and re-keying situation. He kept us informed while he was here and was a pleasure to work with. We will be using him from now on, thanks David! read more

Like every other review, I am in 100% agreement that David is amazing! We were looking to add a digital keypad lock to our side gate and he provided us with different options with their pros and cons so we could make an informed decision. He came out to install the first time, but noticed that our gate needed some extra woodworking to make the lock install better for both functionality and looks. He had no issue with coming back another day so we could have our handyman do the woodwork. He came back today and unfortunately there was another issue with the woodwork that I forgot to take care of, but he was able to install the lock and even went to Home Depot to get a custom piece of wood to do what I was supposed to have done already and did not charge me for extra costs or labor. He is also a super nice guy and very trustworthy. Definitely 5 star service! read more
