Thank you Mick and the staff at Manchester Lock & Security. My son lives in a family apartment unit where my 85 year old dad likes to do his own maintenance. The bedroom door lock was replaced with an ornate old lock/knob that came with a skeleton key. The door lock never worked. Last week my son called me saying that he had problems getting out of his bedroom. The door lock was getting stuck. I live in Westchester not too far from Manchester Lock & Security. I always go there to get keys made. Years ago they even fixed the key ignition switch on my car. I went in on a Friday and inquired about having someone come out to install a new door knob with a key. I was given a card with a number to their dispatcher to call to make a service call. I called and spoke with Ramon. He told me that he had an opening for the following Monday between 9 - 12. That Monday, I called to confirm my appointment. Mick arrived around 11:50am. I showed him what I needed to have done. Mick got right to it. He show me the closest doorknob lock set that would match. He started on the installation. He also put the door plates back on the door to hide the old knob hole. He cleaned up and was done within 50 minutes. My son and I are very happy with the new door knob/lock. read more

My go-to for years. Have not found anything they couldn't help with. Locks re-keyed? No problem. Dupes? The best. Special automotive keys? EasyPeasy. And fast. read more

Best place to get your keys duplicated...No-Doubt... Great-Service & Good-Work... Thank-You-David! read more

The staff were very helpful. I purchased the touch screen lock system at the store and paid the in home service. The installer set my lock to my cell phone and I can monitor anyone coming in or out of my door. For instance, if you have a trusted plumber coming in while you are at work, you can give him a separate code and then delete that code after that person completes their job. I love technology. And I don't lose my keys and lock myself out any more. read more

avoid at all costs, we had them put a new buzz in door system at our business, the remotes broke repeatedly (replaced 15 of them in less than 2 years) and now when we call to inquire about how to order more replacement buttons they said stop calling and hung up on us. they are unprofessional and incompetent. read more

Had a great experience. Frank was kind and super helpful. Just needed some keys made. It was quick and the price is much better than going to home depot. Definitely recommend them for their services and great customer service skills! read more

Westchester Lock and I Pre Scheduled a House visit 2 days ahead of our Scheduled Visit to get an Estimate for an installation of a Door Lock at my House here in Westchester, and the Guy never showed up. I was given a 4 Hr. Time Frame of when he'd be at my House to receive an estimate. I never received any Text message, or phone call saying they'd be here late. They just never bothered to contact me at all. So "I do not recommend this Locksmith at all". read more

These guys came to me within an hour! I left my keys ALL MY KEYS! House keys, car key, office keys inside my office, and locked myself out! They Got me in to my shop literally in seconds! Such great attitudes and great service! read more

Any key needs check this place out! They also have many safe sizes and door knobs/handles. Stopped by to get help on a copy for my car keys and wasn't looking forward to spending a lot of money on it(100+). James however provided and alternative and helped me save money! Super cool guy, totally recommend this business and will be returning for future needs here. Not sure what the negative reviews are about my experience was pretty damn good! read more

I needed a pair of keys made for work. I called before coming to make sure the address was correct and they said they were open until 5 PM. They were very friendly and my keys were done quickly I definitely recommend this place for any of your key making needs. They also have safes and other things available. read more

Don't let the outside view of this locksmith fool you. The store is so beautiful on the inside. They have more to offer than just getting keys made. ( See supplied pics) This visit was my first time here. Our cashier named Frank was so awesome. He was very conversational and not to mention good looking as well. He was very helpful to my husband and I. Parking is very limited but street parking is available as well with a paid meter. They even have a public restroom for their customers which I think is awesome as well. read more

Quick to make my keys - they also sell some nice safes for guns rifles or important documents

Got my house key copied here and was done within 5 minutes. Great service and received an accurate quote over the phone. Prices are great.

Love this locksmith. After visiting 3 other shops over the holiday, Frank was able to immediately address a broken driverside Honda doorlock. He also recommended additional repairs to the auto lock and completed this additional service too. Well done Westchester Lock! Over and above service level to fix the entire car. read more

Great place if you need anything from locks to Large gun safes. The staff is so helpful, knowledgeable and have great customer service. I will travel the extra miles to do business with this company! 6 stars if 6 were available!! read more

RUDE. Called to ask about having a strange type of key copied. Guy on the phone says no we don't do that and hangs up on me. Locksmiths should be someone friendly snd trustworthy, behavior like that makes me never want these people near my important keys. I had over a dozen keys, regular and irregular I needed made. I'll take my money to a business that understands customer service. read more

Place is great. Friendly knowledgeable service at a great price. I highly recommend this business for all lock and key needs

Contacted company to provide a quote for a new intercom system. This office is not even 10 minutes away from our building. Offered to pay for estimate. Business associate said and I quote. "They are too busy to give us an estimate and they do not want our business. " I told him this condominium community was mostly fixed income senior citizens but we would be willing to pay for estimate because intercom does not work and needs to be replaced. Didn't care. Didn't want our business. Don't waste your time calling! I would stay away from a business who is so busy that they pick and choose who to help and who not too. read more

Very attentive to customers. Good quality and assortment of products. Decent parking and located close to freeways.

This is one of the worst locksmiths I've been to in this city. I recently came on the 17th of January at 11:12 am to inquire about getting a service of unlocking my car door with my keys being locked inside. The first thing that was communicated to me was "we don't provide services like that because it's considered a felony to police if they see anyone trying to get in anyone's car". After clarifying myself I said I wanted to pay for service to retrieve my keys, to which I was told again "we don't do things like that here" by an employee with a heavier build and glasses with darker decent. After a few seconds of silence another employee by the name Of Frank came from the back and asked "what kind of car is it" to which I told him my year make and model. After giving it some thought he then asked were it was located to which I told him it was right across the street at ARCO, to which he said they did offer such service. While frank was tethering with his tools the other employee of a heavier set started giving grotesque jokes of my skin tone and others for about 5-6 minutes, trying to get me to laugh along due to his guilty conscience. After frank gathered his tools to follow me all but 50 ft across the street to my vehicle, he then pulled out a spare key and told me to get my keys it would be a charge of 45 dollars. Quickly after, he unlocked my doors and took my keys out and put it in his pockets. I told him I don't believe I have 45 dollars to give with me just putting 30$ worth of gas in my car, to which he said we can discuss payment across the street as his location. Upon me arriving I realized I was 5 dollars short for the transaction, to which he walked back to my car to lock my keys back in. He then said good luck and walked away. I can't help but feel like this treatment was due to my appearance of being a darker skinned man with a hoodie jacket and sweatpants on due to the rain, because I've never been treated that way. I will never be coming to this location again. read more

Kevin is a crook. I called this company to come and rekey my house. The same day that the technician left I went to the actual location to have duplicate keys made and advised the sales person Frank that one of my locks did not seem to function properly. He advised me that that is common for new locks and that it should be OK with more use. One month later my door barely locks... When I turn the lock to remove my key... The lock pops back open. The owner stated that it was ONLY $112 job and that he would not come out to repair it. He stated he had no proof that his tech did not do the job right. My lock worked perfectly before calling this company out. This is a shady business and I regret ever doing business with them. read more

I needed spare keys made for my SYM scooter and Shad motorcycle luggage case. Since both are not common, the team, with several key blanks in hand, went to my bike and tried to find the key blank that will work (went back and forth a few times). It took a good amount of time and there was not a way that would have been faster. Thankfully, there was a great and large selection of key accessories to shop for, interesting door lock products, and comfortable bar stools to sit on that made the wait easier. I walked out with spare keys, and a few useful key accessories I haven't seen before. I'm a stickler for great customer service and this place really has gone the distance with it. I'll be back again. read more

Omg! They are miracle workers. I lost my only set of car keys for my 18 year old car. I called AAA and they couldn't help because their locksmiths don't carry blanks anymore for my old car. What to do? There are no longer dealer ships or service centers for my discontinued car. What do I do now? Called my mechanic who recommended Manchester Lock and Security. I called them to see if they could help. Eureka! They said, have the car towed in and they could have keys made in 2 hours. They were spot on. In two hours my car was ready to go and this time I got a spare key made. I highly recommend this company. The employees were friendly, helpful, and certainly very professional. They do know their business as locksmiths. read more

Frank saved my day! This place never disappoints. My key wasn't working to open my car, and instead of just replacing the battery and charging me, Frank ran some tests and showed me it was a simple fix. So grateful! read more

This place has been around since the 40's. Helped me immediately, friendly workers. Come here for your lock and key stuff!

True professional locksmiths in a sea of ill trained bozos with no storefront and little accountability who drive around in vans. I worked for a firm that heavily used Torrance Lock and Key, affiliated or used to be connected to Manchester Lock and Key. These guys know their stuff and do things right the first time, quickly as they know exactly what they are doing. If Manchester Lock and Key charges extra, I am happy to pay it as I want my key made or lock installed or lock re-keyed correctly the first time. I used to go to B & B Hardware in Culver City but I am done with B & B after it took 4 tries to cut a simple auto key. Home Depot is also less than stellar. Go with the pros! Go with Manchester Lock and Key! read more

I have used Manchester Lock & Security several times to have keys made and the staff was always super friendly and nice. I stopped in yesterday (01-24-12) looking for a Hide-A-Key for an extra large Kia Soul key for when I go surfing. They had a couple of selections in stock but nothing fit. I asked if they carried what one might see on the fence of an apartment building a locking device with combination lock in the middle that opens like a safe. They referred me to an online ordering system, found it in a catalog and asked if I had any additional questions, overall super helpful. The parking is a bit limited. All parking for this business is metered and last time I checked 25 cents was cheaper than a parking ticket. Manchester Lock & Security offers Locksmiths and had a wide range of personnel safes, fireproof safes and gun safes. This seems like a little Mom & Pop business that is still in business despite the economy so if you happen to be in the area throw them your business unless you like being harassed by Day Laborers when you pull into your local Home Depot. read more

Went in to get a key made for an old door. They didn't have the key in stock and had to order. They promised 2-3 day turn around. When that didn't happen I called a week later. I had to keep calling but eventually the key stock came in. Because of all the back and forth the guy gave me the keys for free! Now that's customer service! read more

As I said in my check in. Fixed the lock in my car at lower than quoted price. Frank was extremely professional and competent. read more

Great, friendly and good work. We needed to get a aging security lock replace in a condo building and Richard came, took a look and recommended a reliable and sturdy replacement. The work was done effortlessly. I'd call them next time I needed similar services. Santa Monica Condo HOA read more

Awful service!!!! When he came to give me an estimate, he was rude and made me feel very comfortable

They were able to schedule a residential re-key for me on very short notice. The technician, Alex, arrived exactly on time and was already wearing a mask. He inspected the exterior doors, told me what my options were and what the price would be. He then completed the work quickly and efficiently. I would definitely use them again read more

I, Hazel Walley made an appointment with Manchester lock and Security located on Manchester Blvd in the city of Inglewood, California. They were scheduled to come out on Friday, January 14, 2021, but didn't show up until Monday January18, 2021 to access the lock. After accessing the lock, he discovered that it was not the lock, but that it was due to the door not having a weather strip. He didn't have a new one in his van. He assured me that he would come back on Monday to complete the job. Tuesday January 19, Juan came out but he did not bring the the strip. He said that the man that came out Monday did not put in the system a strip for my lock/door. He also told me that he would come back and as of this date January 25, 2021, Manchester Lock and Security has not returned to repair my lock. read more

Told me some would be here between 12 to 5 to re-key my doors. No call, no show. They wasted half my day. Will never use !!!

The day of the scheduled appointment was missed. They said I had scheduled it on a day I was out of town. We re-scheduled. This lock and security company came to bolt my safe. They broke the hinges and refused to fix, replace, or give me the number to their insurance company. They do not honor their work and do not have knowledgeable employees. The owner Kevin disregards any responsibility for his employees. Do not use this company, you are better off with a reputable business that stands by their work. Make sure you double check their work thoroughly. read more

This is the third time I've walked out empty handed. Send 'em some business. I think they're desperate. I asked for some precut keys and some copies (so I could change my own locks) (By the way, their price per duplicate key is double what I used to charge when i was in the business) Haahahha - they said they didn't have any! It went downhill from there. read more

Manchester Lock is back to what it was before Stanley Security took it over and ruined it. They are affiliated with Torrance Lock and have prompt and courteous customer service as well as great inhouse over the counter guys. I had some custom keys made and they were right on target. I will use them for all my locksmith needs in the future. read more

Canceled on me last min, leaving me out of my house. All they could say was "Sorry, Can't help you". Never again. read more

Tried to go to another lock & key place but after driving in circles I headed here. They were nice, the place is clean and I got my keys made in no time. They reminded me to keep the receipt in case the keys don't work. The keys were a bit more than Home Depot but I've used HD and had TERRIBLE results. read more

Frank is the man! Great business that is here to do it right the first time. I brought a safe and could not open it. Bad batteries was the cause. They cleaned the area help me reconfigure my codes and I am happy as all can be!!! Thank you read more
