I was referred to Kardo Locksmith through Yelp, and could not have been more pleased. The entire project which entailed re-keying nine (9) locks took a very short time. Our personal locksmith was knowledgeable and experienced in the various locks that were on this 1926 single family home. He validated his work and followed up with a call back after leaving to ensure his validation. I will definitely reuse and refer. read more

Heather and Leo at Kardo saved my ass! I lost my only Subaru key walking the dogs and the next morning they had someone come out and get me a new working key in just over an hour! I can still make it to work and they didn't take my wallet over the coals either! The price was great! Thank you!! read more

Chen was able to unlock my condo unit door within 5-10 minutes and without damaging my lock. He also arrived at my place fairly quickly and gave me a fair rate! I would highly recommend and use his service again if necessary! read more

Requested locksmith services because I was locked out. Quoted me 90-150 over the phone. NAOR is the techs name and tried to SCAM me for $400. After I adamantly refused and threatened to refuse service he brought the price back down 150. The door was unlocked in minutes and this service shouldn't have even cost that. If this employee NAOR is any indication about how this business is run then it is a complete SCAM and an incompetently run business. This "family run" operation is clearly not operating in good faith. Unprofessional, sleazy, and unkempt as I could see half his buttock as he bent down. One of the WORST customer service experiences I've ever had. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. read more

They came pretty quick! I think they have a big call center, because we had to repeat our information 2x. The locksmith quote 15-20 min, showed up in 30. Not bad! read more

Please ladies be careful with who gets dispatched to you. I'm not sure if the dispatchers are in on the scams but I was quoted for 80-145 over the phone and upon arriving, a younger man in a white suv showed up and seemed to understand the struggle of me being locked out of my apt for 2 hours. After looking at my door knob for a second, he quoted me for $400! Plus a $29 fee for coming out to me. I told him absolutely not and was trying to walk away. He cornered me requesting the fee. I gave it to him and was walking away when he started telling me how about 350? Okay I can go down to 250. I told him no please leave. He wouldn't walk away so I had to drive away in fear. He began to text and call me saying he could do 150. I blocked his number and drove off. I called the agency and made the report but I'm not sure if anything will be done. So just to be safe, making this review for anyone who gets placed in the same situation. Be careful! And go for San Gabriel locksmith on yelp instead! read more

I often do not write bad reviews but in this instance after being disappointed numerous times, I needed to say some thing. Setting false expectations of when either you're going to get called back, or have a technician come see you, he's incredibly misleading. I waited over an hour and a half at 1 AM and never did a technician come. Every time I called apparently somebody was coming or calling but that never was FALSE ADVERTISING here with "24/7" services. Do not rely on this company if you feel you need help in the middle of the night. read more

My daughter and husband got locked out of their new home having early morning coffee in their pajamas on their porch with no phone. They borrowed a passerby's phone long enough to text me that they desperately needed help finding a locksmith asap! Kardo responded immediately and the operator said someone in the area would contact me. I was pleasantly surprised that they called within minutes, showed up to change the locks within 15 minutes, and were reasonably priced. read more

Locked out of house, key entry worn and damaged by family member. It was hot outside and the owner sent his tech Dag. He arrived within 20mins! He was careful not to damage the door or door frame. Friendly and professional! Door finally opened!!! Our hero! Thank you for being open 24/7!!! read more

When you spend over one hundred dollars on a lock you expect it to last. On the advice of the experts at Kardo Locksmith, I purchased two storeroom locks in March 2017. Last week I found out that one of the two locks stopped working. I gave Kardo a call and explained the situation. He responded that the warranty was only good for 3 months. They charged me 45 to come out to see the problem. Another 40 to drill the lock they installed. Additionally he wanted to charge another 65 for a new lock and 35 to rekey the lock. No thanks Kardo. I don't need you to rip me off any more. read more

They replaced a gate lock for a property I manage. They quoted a good price over the phone. When the tech arrived he said that it was going to be more and that they had mis-quoted over the phone. After trying to guilt me into paying more because he was going to lose money, he finally agreed to do the job for the originally quoted price. Anyway, low ratings because the lock only lasted a few months. Very low traffic area, maybe used one or twice a week. Called Kardo and left a couple voicemails to see if they could fix it, but never got a call back from them. read more

I lost the keys to our truck. We searched everywhere and couldn't find them. I reached out and these guys were very responsive. If you want someone to just come and get the job done and no customer service skills or personality then call this guy. The estimated price versus what he told me when he said he could do the job varied greatly. I gave him very precise and exact details of type of car and everything and the quote didn't come close to what I paid. I used them anyway but I don't know if I would call again unless I was really in a jam. Thank you though for the quick and prompt service. read more

I used their 24h emergency service and was quoted $125 over the phone to break open a safe at 8pm on a weekday. I was comfortable with the price, so I asked for a door lock to be repaired as well. The technician that responded to the service call was rude and abrupt- walking directly into the home without even knocking. When he completed the service he said the total cost was $425. Avoid this company, they do not provide accurate estimates. read more

I found this bussines in Yelp and i was in a hurry to find a locksmith and program my vehicle key.

If you need a great locksmith in the Silver Lake / Los Feliz area ( or anywhere in LA for that matter, I suggest you call Kardo. I found them via Google maps, contacted them and Nick was at the house within an hour!!

I highly recommend and will definitely utilize Kardo again for all of my locksmith needs. read more

I locked my keys inside the apartment and called Kardo for help. The man who picked up the phone was rude, unhelpful, and barely grunted one-worded answers. I never got a name. After I explained the situation, he asked for my address and almost hung up before I could ask him for an estimated price, ETA, and contact info for whoever was coming out to my place. It was super awkward. I was genuinely shocked considering all the glowing reviews for Kardo, which is why I called in the first place! Anyway, he says that "someone" will be at my place in an hour. An hour passes... I call back and the phone rings and rings. I wait another half hour and I call again. It goes to voicemail. No one shows up or calls me back to say that they're running late or the service is cancelled. Pretty awful considering after I explained I was locked outside without anything (car key, wallet, etc). A complete waste of time during an emergency. read more

I had to have a locksmith come out to a rental property I manage on Saturday evening and thankfully I got Nick. He was awesome, did a great job, was fast and efficient and got the lock fixed and working in less than an hour. There was a mixup with the invoice and I thought he was leaving it with one of the tenants, but ended up taking it with him. I called him back to ask him to mail it to me or drop it off at my house and he double back to drop it off at my house, which I really appreciated. If you need a locksmith, give them a call! read more

Nick helped me out to get a new key printed after I lost mine. He was extremely friendly and quick. Loved the service. It was reasonably priced. 5 stars! read more

I locked my keys in the trunk of my car. Called Kardo Locksmith. They showed up, pushed a few buttons on their laptop and popped the trunk open within 5 minutes. Quick and efficient. Only downside is the price. It cost $215 for this service. I called around and a few other places charge $160 but these guys were already on their way and I was in a rush. read more

I got locked out of my apartment this evening and didn't know what to do. Then Nick saved my LIFE by coming over and letting me back in. He came super quickly and I was back in my apartment in a flash. I'm so grateful. Highly recommend! read more

Called today at 12:21pm noon pst to get a new Car Key and was told I would get a call from a "technician/driver." I was asked several questions about my car and what location I was in and I had to stop the person from hanging up before I could get a actual price. 30 minutes goes by and finally received a phone call from the technician and he said that he would give me a call once he finishes his other job. At this point it's 2pm and I'm trying to have patience but I am parked on a street in Hollywood that has 1hr parking until 4pm. When I called the technician he tells me he can't give me an accurate or even roundabout time they can come out. I called another company after I took a Uber home to charge my phone and they were there by the time I got back it took them less than 10 minutes. I wouldn't recommend this company if you're in a hurry or emergency. read more
