This guy is the best! My go to guy whenever i need locksmith services. Julio has helped me multiple times

Fast service they re-keyed my lock cylinder and was to match my lock and installed it in less than 30 minutes

Outstanding locksmith. Went for a couple odd reasons in the past but most recently just had some copies made. This is the best value you will ever get at any locksmith. Prices are outstanding and since there is a parts yard nearby it can be very helpful depending on what your doing. Sometimes when I get a new (used) car it doesn't always come with two sets of keys. These cars can be very old and have floated through the hands of already a few careless ones that lose keys and smoke cigarettes. If you only have one key (like I did) be sure and come here for a spare fast as possible. It will be lots cheaper than unlocking a car or figuring out what kind of key goes to what if there is nothing to copy. read more

Called Julio and set up an appointment. He was early and worked efficiently. 20 mins later he was able to program 2 remotes, cut keys and sync to the ignition. Professional and no fuss. read more

Julio was fantastic. I visited due to concerns about the lock to my car door because my key had got stuck in the door. He did an assessment and informed me that nothing needed to be done to the lock. Moreover he advised me to use the spare key because it was in better shape and how to ensure that the key would never get stuck again. This was all done without charge. Highly recommended. Will return again for any future needs. read more

If u need glass these are your guys!! They're attached to a wrecking yard so they get all glass off of wrecked cars, pretty straight forward and legit place. I had a door glass that would not stay up, they said I needed a new window regulator. I didn't have the cash so they guys just put a piece of two by four under the glass to prevent it from sliding down while driving. GENIUS!! And they did it for free !!! Don't go anywhere else if you need auto glass read more

Julio is our go to guy! Amazing quality of work and fair pricing. Whether we set up appointment or request same day service he is professional and punctual! Would recommend to anyone who needs quick and reliable service. read more

Searched through the pages of highly rated locksmiths to see who had the best prices and availability. I didn't call this locksmith. I called a competitor who referred me to them. This is a no nonsense locksmith who got my car key fob programmed and cut for a fraction of what the dealer wanted. They beat out the competition. The process was quick and efficient. Don't hire a locksmith until you get a quote from these folks. You won't regret it. read more

Left my keys in my car at work. Called and he quickly answered. Met me at my car about 15 minutes after the phone call and it took about 3 minutes to unlock my car. Great and quick service. Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Would recommend if you're ever locked out of your car and need an affordable and fast solution. read more

I got my spare key cut and programmed there. Their price is super competitive and didn't attempt to over-charge me like many other locksmiths shop. The staff work efficiently and are nice. If you have trouble with keys and locks, this is the place I recommend. Heads-up: cash only. read more

My father praises this place for their quick and excellent work at making replica keys. I finally accompanied him for the first time when we needed some extra keys for our home replacement locks. And I must say, they are professionals at what they do. Each key made costs about $2 and it only took them about ten minutes for 4 keys. I don't recall if my father or anyone else in my family has ever needed some other type of service that they provide here, such as selling/buying car parts or selling recyclable materials, but I'm sure they excel in that as well as there were lines of people when we arrived. Getting in and out through the gated entrance can be a bit difficult, and the parking lot is narrow in some areas, but the service makes up for it. read more

Great work, great price and great timing...lost a key to one of my vehicles and they made me a new key for under $50.. i recommend this hidden gem in the Oakland pick n pull parking lot. read more

I was referred to Pick-A-Lock by the Auto Glass individual that I was very pleased with so I trusted their referral and they lived up to the expectations. The ignition on my Hyundai would not turn so I had contacted a previous mobile locksmith that was unable to 'bump' the car until Hyundai roadside assist came to help it get started. I had to leave the key in the car until arriving at Pick-A-Lock and then they took less than an hour to clean the ignition mechanism. I was very pleased with their service and would recommend them especially if you are in the East Bay area. Oh and they are CASH ONLY! read more

My Car was stolen and recovered. I needed an ignition switch. Pick A Lock was fast, professional and best of all they did the job for less than a fourth of what others would have charged. I was happy. You will be too. read more

I'd highly recommend Devin for his rapid arrival and professionalism. Devin picked up immediately when I called, I gave him my address, and he arrived in less than 15 minutes. I was back inside my house nearly immediately! On top of all that, he's incredibly friendly and helpful. read more

They do good work on automotive locks and ignitions at reasonable prices. They saved me from having to replace an ignition switch. I am disappointed that they are no longer offering mobile automotive re-keying service. read more

Really great customer service, would definitely recommend. The main office may have thought I requested a key for an earlier model of my car (which changed models mid-year so it may have been my fault for not stating the model clearly), but Julio was completely understanding and flexible when he was unable to program the ignition with a standard key due to the car being a later model. He went above and beyond to locate another key that day and met me the next day at a time that worked with my schedule. He was very transparent and conscious of price points and made sure I chose the best option. read more
