The specialist was only able to open one of the two doors we needed. We were kind of desperate so I didn't shop around and now that I've looked around I think he over charged us. We probably looked like we didn't know any better. $401 for one dead bolt looks like more that the going rate. read more

AVOID AVOID AVOID!!! I was scammed out of $500 from Adar, after the site quoted much lower, only for him to tell me "$390 on arrival". I was requested that he pull the emergency lever on my garage door from the front, or access the button, before attempting to drill into the door we are not supposed to use and don't even have a key for. I told him kindly "I'm not paying that much. I have a friend who will come over and do it for $125 right now", in which he defensively stated "NO ONE WILL DO THAT FOR LESS THAN $390 on A WEEKEND!". I should've told him to leave then and there, I even offered him $20 for gas and the inconvenience to try and get him off my property. He stuck around and continued to gas light me. He never attempted garage access, went straight to "trying" to pick the lock, when I told him it was dead bolted the whole time. Huge language barrier. Long story short - he rips open my door with a pry bar and tells me I owe him $700. WHAT?!!!? I SAID absolutely not and I want you off my property. I asked for his BSIS license number, name...he refused. I kindly suggested he do so as it's required by CA law, yet he said "I don't have to tell you that". After refusing to name a boss, or company name he worked for since he was a "contractor", I suggested I call the police. He later told me that I was they jerked for "threatening to call the police ", I said I'm in healthcare and if I was treating one of your family members, wouldn't you wanna know my my name and freely be able to look up my license number? Well turns out he's not licensed based on BSIS website. He quoted me for $700 just for breaking my door. Let me repeat that he broke my door knobs and door, he wanted to replace my locks and I said absolutely not and just to get him off my property and out of there as I became increasingly uncomfortable and feeling unsafe, I told him I'd pay him half cash and half (his request) Cash App after telling him I would not pay the $700 for breaking my door open. I said I'll pay you half, he asked for $350 cash and $150.93 cash app totaling $500. He also informed me that I would receive a receipt after gathering my email. I never received such a receipt and that I texted him requesting for an itemized receipt as well as his license and name what a surprise he never got back to me this person essentially forced me into a corner on my own property and didn't listen to me, nor communicate effectively triggered by the term police. It was quite evident that this person is not licensed as a locksmith and he's not. I will be reporting this to the BBB, and possibly filing a police report. Oh, and due to my security camera, as it was all caught on camera along with audio, not smart. read more

These guys were great! I came home from a trip to find my keypad lock batteries dead and unable to get into my house at 830 PM on a saturday night. I called around and got a few quotes/arrival times, and they quoted the fastest time and most reasonable price range for the job based on the lock info. When you call you get an AI assistant who takes your info. David called back moments later and said he could be at my home in 12 minutes (!) and when I gave him the lock information he gave a reasonable price range for 8:30 PM on a saturday night. He arrived soon after and picked the lock under the key pad in minutes, charged slightly over top of range quoted by phone but reasonable compared to other quotes i got and speed of service from time of call to arrival. Paid by Venmo. Thank you! read more

Our locksmith, Guy was super helpful, quick and efficient!! Definitely recommend to other.

I don't normally write reviews but this one just left me a sour feeling after (my husband also doesn't have a yelp account as we share mine)... My husband lost his wireless key fob in an Uber after getting back to a friend's house after an event. It was already close to midnight. After a few google searches we called this company for some help to get a replacement fob. The operator was really nice, we gave all the information they asked for and told us they would call us back. About 20 minutes later, the operator called us back letting us know the technician would be dispatched to us tomorrow morning at 9 AM. The technician called my husband a little bit before 8 AM letting him know he's on the way. When he got to my husband's car, he does help fairly quickly with getting him the key and programming the fob to his car (which is very much appreciated.) When I got there, the technician was pretty much done with the service. What I didn't appreciate was the way the technician was talking to us. I'm assuming before I got there he told my husband the pricing between on market and off market. He gave us the total and old us what he accepted. My husband politely asks what the prices were again so we could figure out where could pull our payment to him. The technician rudely repeats, "I already told you, aftermarket is $495 & market is $695, plus tax" He was basically said it in a tone to us like we were stupid when it was a simple question to just answer again. We step aside to figure out our things, got it figured out, asks if he accepts apple pay, he does. He asks and pushes for Venmo or Cash App telling us that it would just charge our CC (again in a tone like we don't know how it works). My husband says no to Venmo/Cash App as we RARELY use those apps and we proceed to pay the way we wanted to send payment. I understand it's a Sunday, no one wants to work over a weekend, driving early in the morning from SF to Daly City is not a fun drive a majority of the time, I get it. Just please treat your customers a little better. We are paying for a local service to for help. It was already upsetting we lost the fob, we didn't need to feel anymore worse by being belittled just because we asked to repeat the prices. It was also an emergency for us because we live in Sacramento. We just wanted to get home and we didn't want to burden our friend leaving our car there and possibly risking it get towed away since it was apartment complex parking that she would have to validate. 3 stars for being quick and efficient, and the operators being nice. Price wise, we feel it's a bit overpriced? We've never been in this kind of situation before so, we don't know pricing differences and what not. I do wish they would tell us an approximate amount of what we may be paying for, but then again we should have taken the initiative to ask. We were just desperate. Just the technicians attitude didn't sit right with us which is why we minus 2 stars... Unfortunately my husband didn't catch his name either, ugh. read more

Avoid. Lied about the lock being non standard and difficult, then used bumping to open it in seconds. Over charged, originally quoted 125-150, then increased after looking at the lock with fake justification. read more

Be careful with these guys..pricing is crazy. My partner got the impression from them that it wouldn't be very much. They said it depends on the lock and will have to take a look at it. On arrival he says it's $215... and we go what. Feel like he was scamming us and eventually said he'd take $120 cash after mentioning we wanted to pass. And then he said it's a $75 travel fee which he didn't mention anything about prior. Would have tried to figure something else out had he provided more info. Eventually, we literally only had like $100 cash and he accepted after going back and forth. Overall, understandable that it wouldn't be cheap but the impression given and the lack of communication just gave a negative shady feeling and we def would not use or recommend these guys again. Here is a picture of the $215 lock he opened(which we feel is not complicated at all) so beware of pricing, esp if your lock is more complicated. This is probably as basic as it gets so expect double and or upwards of $250 for anything else. read more

Extremely overpriced. A scam! When I originally called they gave me an estimate of $120. It was more than double that. They also took over 45 minutes to arrive when I originally was told 30. Not professional at all. The workers didn't have a uniform or even a logo of the company somewhere on their shirt. read more

Impeccable service from start to finish! From the initial phone call to the moment the technician arrived, everything was smooth and professional. Guy, the locksmith who helped us, showed up quickly and was incredibly friendly, personable, and helpful. He went above and beyond to assist us with our locked-out car. In an industry where it can be hard to find reliable and trustworthy service, this company--and Guy in particular--truly stands out! Highly recommend! read more

DO NOT HIRE. Called in because my key was jammed and he told me 25 minutes he would be here. 1 hour later he shows up, un jams it in 20 seconds and tells me it will be $450 to replace the lock. I say absolutely not, how much for the 20 second unjamming and he said $250!!! I said I'll give you 100 to go away and he acted like I was giving him nothing. Now I am worried for my safety that these scammers have my address. Do not use under any circumstances read more

Excellent service! Very efficient and helpful. He did an excellent job with the main lock of the front gate. Highly recommended.

Wow! Super fast and efficient service, I was really impressed! The tip of my key had broken off into the lock so I called Local Locksmith and Hadar was at my house 15 minutes later! I was on a time crunch and Hadar assessed the job, provided options and replaced the lock all in under TEN minutes!?!? Really great, SPEEDY and friendly service. I highly recommend you go with Local Locksmith and Hadar. I was dreading waiting around all day to get this done and instead, from phone call to having the new keys placed in my hand was a total of about 25 minutes!! Thank you so much!!! read more

I accidentally locked myself out of my apartment, and gave Ori a call and he was here within 20 minutes to replace the lock.

Very sad Customer Service. Use a different Company this was the first one to come up on Google. My daughter (not the smartest at times) ran into the Store not thinking left her work backpack with car key in the backpack along with her work computer. Stolen in 10 minutes. I call this company they with not give any price over the phone all I asked was a round about price Nope. So the worker calls tells me 20 minutes I'm thinking ok cool that's super fast. An hour goes by call my daughter to she if she's on the road. Nope and the worker is ignoring her calls he finally answers 20 minutes told her this three times. I don't like leaving bad reviews all the worker had to do was be honest I'll be there in an hour or however long it's gonna take to arrive. Nope kept her on the hook so we did call another company. She had not problem waiting. After 2 hours it's getting dark I call another company they tell me I'll have my guy there in 15 minutes. I'm thinking now that's great 10 minutes goes by the now Local Locksmith shows up. Now he's got attitude with my daughter very rude. He programs a new key than tells her it's gonna cost more to program the key to unlock the car. She just wants to go home tells him no just make the key to start the car. Now more Attitude!! We had to go have the key reprogrammed more money. This review is not about how long it takes to arrive or money be upfront. I call the other guy after LL shows up his worker was 6 minutes away I felt sooo bad. Sorry for such a long review take you money elsewhere. read more

Ori came at a moments notice to fix both our locks in the middle of the night when my bf and I realized we were stuck inside our condo.

Came home to find my neighbors, an elderly couple locked out of their home. I was extremely lucky and by chance contacted this locksmith.

I definitely recommend their services and will definitely use them again for any future locksmith needs.
