Gal was AWESOME. I live in Dublin and called him to help my elderly parents and elderly caregiver,…read morewho doesn't speak English, in San Francisco. I explained to Gal that I would not be able to meet him in SF and if he could correspond with me over the phone to discuss what needed to be done while he was on site. I had originally wanted him to disable the buttons on the mortise lock because we thought my dad was activating it, locking the exterior latch, and preventing my parents' caregiver from entering each morning. Gal saved us a lot of money by explaining that all that was needed to be done was to turn the key one extra turn. Gal also adjusted the door because it was hard to close at times and smoothed out the caregiver's keys to make it easier to unlock the door. Gal did great work, but what really stood out to me is what a great quality human being Gal is. Not only was he understanding of the situation with me living so far away, but he showed the caregiver how to open the door if it's locked from inside, took a video of the process so I could share it with the caregiver in case she forgets, had us on speaker phone because the caregiver doesn't speak English so I could help translate. His patience and understanding is of the highest quality, saying that we will all be that age at some point. He was very respectful to my elderly dad and caregiver. Gal is highly recommended! I would use him again in a heartbeat!

I reached out to Friendly Locksmith and Security to help me fix a broken 100 year old mortise lock…read more I had taken the lock apart and saw that the problem was a broken spring, but I didn't know how to replace it. Other locksmiths quoted me close to $200 to fix this. To my surprise, I got a speedy text response from Vsevolod. He told me that while he was happy to come out and look, this was an easy DIY fix. He explained to me exactly what to do to repurpose the spring to fix the lock. I decided to give it a shot and his suggestion totally worked, saving me an expensive visit. This was top notch service, and if I ever need a more serious repair, I will definitely be reaching out to these guys!

Highly, highly recommend! Bonus: the ice cream was fine. :)

Alex is the best -- honest, fast, and saved me hundreds…read more I almost got scammed by another locksmith who tried to charge me $600, claiming my used car's aftermarket alarm would prevent him from reprogramming a key. I ended up losing $180 to him before finding Alex through a friend's recommendation. What a difference. Alex was honest and trustworthy from the start. Even though he didn't know exactly what the previous locksmith had done to my car, he took the time to figure it out and made me a working pair of keys for my 2010 Corolla -- both ignition and doors -- in under an hour. And it cost about a third of what the other guy tried to charge me. I never write reviews, but Alex earned this one. If you need a locksmith you can actually trust, call him first and save yourself the headache (and the money) I went through.

He was in a uniform shirt, was friendly, identified himself, and got to work. All locks got adjusted as needed. All locks got lubricated! A couple of minor repairs got done. FANTASTIC! We wanted a couple of special character keys. Those are not carried on the truck. Oh well; James had plain blanks and made our keys. Paid for services rendered, and waved good-bye to james. A few hours later, our doorbell rang. It was a guy in full motocycle protective gear. Big helmut with heavy visor, thick leather jacked, protective pants, boots, and a beautiful motorcycle at the curb! Mototcycle man held out to character keys already cut to work in our new locks! A familiar voice (James) said he knew we were disappointed so he cut these - try them and make sure they work. They do! That's beyond the call of service! Thank you, James, so much! The character keys were special to us because the keys we were getting rid of were character keys. My husband had given them to me over 36 years ago when we bought our house and put in our first locks! James and his partner are not the same locksmiths who took care of my brother's car loks many, many years ago, but the work ethic, quality of work, and friendly professional service are just the same.
