Juan did a fantastic job on a very complex project for a large home in El Cerrito with an attached rental unit that involved many doors. He helped think through all the details and come up with the best configuration/solution for re-keying. The project involved replacing many doorknobs, deadbolt locks, and several different keying strategies using security keys. Juan was very friendly and professional. I highly highly recommend Juan and Tommy's Locks, in general. Tommy and team had done work on my house previously so I contacted his company again. They do not disappoint! They provide quick transparent quotes and fast installation. read more

I was calling around to get quotes from locksmiths in the area to get two keys programmed.Tommy answered and was very professional with his price. I called around some more to compare and quickly found out he was the most competitive price. I called Tommy back and set up for him to come out to my house and do his service. Tommy programmed both keys very quickly and cut them onsite. I would highly recommend Tommy to anyone! 5 star service. read more

Great service from Tommy's Locksmith. Called in the morning to get an estimate to get 3 very old home door locks replaced. I called a couple of other places and got vague ranges. I got the most straightforward and best estimate from Tommy's. He came over same day and efficiently replaced all 3 locks and price came in within the estimate. I will use Tommy's again and highly recommend him for all locksmith needs. read more

Excellent timely and professional service. He gave me advice and suggestions as well. He is obviously great at what he does and I'm glad I called this company. I can highly recommend him. read more

Quality, fast & reliable service. All at a price no where else can beat. Tommy was able to come to my block in the sunset district and help me with a valet spare car key. Only cost $180!! Fast & clear communication too. read more

Tommy's Locksmith was super responsive with great communication. Fingers crossed we won't need him anytime soon; however, really glad I have his contact info for our next key / lock issue. 10/10! read more

Tommy was AMAZING: super competent; super responsive; super nice! Definitely, will seek his help, if some jerk again tries to steal my (get this!) 1999 Ford Ranger. Thank you, Tommy!!! read more

I highly recommend Tommy's Locksmith, as they helped me in replacing my mailbox lock in less than a day-- from messaging on Yelp to get my quote to the technician Juan coming in and fixing everything in less than 20 minutes! They offered me the best quote in the SF area after starting my project on Yelp, and I'm very pleased with the great turnaround time from first contact to my mailbox being fixed. read more

Very responsive and professional. Tommy came and provided a new key fob for my 2017 Civic. I was very impressed. Great attitude and responsive. read more

I locked myself out of my house. Tommy's was fast and efficient in rectifying that! The tech was here in under 30 minutes (probably good timing and location of last job) while the other places I called said 1.5 hours. He was also depressingly quick in getting my front door open though it was just the door handle lock and not the deadbolt. Depressing in that I'm now thinking of how to beef up my home's security . . . read more

Tommy's is reliable and can sometimes be available on shirt notice if there's an emergency!

Amazing service and quick. Highly recommend his services. Easy and professional. Appreciated his expertise and knowledge

I contacted several companies about providing a new remote key for my Prius to replace the one I lost. I chose Tommy's because they were the most responsive, had the best price and could complete the job the quickest. The only negative was that it was more of a hassle to answer questions and provide info and photos for Tommy to know key I needed. Would def work with them again. read more

Prompt response and fair prices. They replied to my request right away and gave me a ballpark price on the job that I requested. Overall I am happy with their services read more

Prompt response to Yelp project requests, reasonable pricing, showed up (!), excellent communication... Thank you read more

Juan at Tommy's Locksmith was great. Good communication, came out and changed 7 locks. When one wasn't quite working he came back out the next day and fixed it. All smooth as butter and price was very reasonable too! Don't hesitate to give them a call. You'll be satisfied. read more

I can see why this guy has so many 5-star reviews: he was very available on the weekend, came over quickly, communicated with us well, he made two car keys with remotes at way under what a dealer would charge and less than I was led to expect from him. He worked quickly and everything worked perfectly. I couldn't be happier. read more

These guys are as great as the reviews suggest. Tommy was as professional as can be on the phone, even when I shifted my availability. And Juan was as charming as can be - even though I failed to pick-up his call, confirming that I was at the job site! But those details don't matter if the team doesn't offer great value - and these guys do. Fact is, when you're calling a locksmith, you're probably under some level of stress. I was, and Tommy and Juan doing their jobs professionally allowed me to worry about my other to-do's. Thanks guys! read more

Good show on time good communications A job well done need more charecters blah blalala read more

Highly recommend! I was locked out of my apartment on a Sunday (the door knob had fallen off) and they coached me through opening it myself! I sent them photos and he explained what to do. This saved me from having to pay them to even come out! Im sure so other businesses would have just tried to make a sale! I'm so grateful! Made my already stressful day so much easier! read more

Amazing service. Did exactly as promised and provided fast service! Great prices too!

First to respond, took care of my parents' residential lock. Quoted price was exactly right. Also, they were able to replace the lock with a new version, and rekeyed it to match. A perfect job read more

Just amazing. I texted Tommy's at 1130a to get a quote on installing a new smart lock on my front door. A couple pictures later I had a quote and an offer to do the job in 30 minutes time. 120 minutes after my first text my job is completed. Not sure it can get any better than that. While cost was not the reason I selected Tommy's (response, timing and reviews were) it was great that I got such service at about 15% less than other quotes. Really fantastic work. Thank you read more

Tommy's Locksmith - Ultrabolt pro - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

Quick installation of locks on multiple doors. Professional service. On time service.

They saved me $800 on new locks through a fix that helped my existing smart locks work. One smart lock I had never "knew" it was locked because the bolt didn't go far enough into the doorframe. But the other side was backed by metal. No way was I going to attempt to drill through the metal, and I was worried anyone else's attempts would look ugly. But they did a fantastic job! Drilled right through, cleaned up, and everything worked great. I've been using it for months now and both smart locks now work perfectly! read more

After ghosting me twice and never showing up, Tommy himself decides to contact me. However, instead of attempting in any way to make things right, he insisted I provide him with names of who I talked to, exact times of communications, etc (info I obviously didn't have anymore because I'm not running a business, and he waited an insanely long time to try to deal with this) and then started harassing me and insisting this is all somehow my fault. I really wish this person didn't have any way to contact me, and I highly recommend avoiding him. read more

Fast, friendly and very much concerned with making sure you're taken care of. I highly recommend Tommy and his crew.

Tommy called and asked if he could come sooner than our appointment time, which was on the same day I called. He arrived and quickly re-keyed the new lock that I will install in my Hyundai. Tommy was fast, polite, and did a fine job. All that, and at a highly competitive price. If you need work done on your locks, I suggest you call Tommy! read more

I called around to three different locksmiths and thank goodness Tommy was one of them. His price is affordable and Tommy confirmed the appointment via text, was right on time and completed the job efficiently. He was a cool dependable guy and I will be calling him if I need any keys made. read more

I needed a spare key for my car last minute, and after getting a couple quotes Tommy's was the most affordable. He was able to come out the next day and program one for me quite quickly! Communication was ongoing, quick, and always reliable. And payment options were flexible. Thank you! read more

Easy to deal with and very knowledgeable. Able to troubleshoot an issue and charged fairly. Would recommend.

I contacted Tommy to install locks after a break-in at our place. He respon ded immediately, then called back to let me know that his tech couldn't make it, but he would come out and do the work himself. He showed up eARLIER than scheduled and completed the work, adding a quick enhancement to the door frame to make the fit more secure. Fantastic service!! read more

I'm heavy-handed and break my key every other year, if not more. Tommy saved on my phone as Tommy my Key Guy and have even referred him to my coworker. He comes to you and works with your schedule the best he can. read more

I used the yelp project feature to ask who can fix my keys and how much. I appreciated that Tommy responded first very quickly and with a price quote instead of the generic answer of "Hi! Please call us so we can obtain more details" when I already gave all the details. He was available the same day. I like the unique aspect of the mobile service. He came to me. Very convenient, quick, and more affordable than the dealership. read more

Tommy's Locksmith - I provided my own case but he made the replacement remote - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

In most cases when you call for a locksmith it is urgent. My situation wasn't any different. I left a message before their office hours, received a call when they opened and within 2 hours were at my house. I highly recommend based on their quick response and reasonable price. Juan was very polite and cleaned up afterwards! Thanks for making a stressful situation easy! read more

Professional, quick, and easy. They picked up the phone immediately and were there ahead of schedule. The price was $110 for a car lockout (which was the same as what they quoted me on the phone). read more

Found Tommy's Locksmith on Yelp. Used the request a quote feature to contact. Received a message back very quickly with some information regarding pricing estimates and scheduling. Chose to proceed with Tommy's based on the communication and feedback, although pricing was a little higher than what a couple other providers quoted me. Two days later, Juan, the tech/locksmith, called and texted me in the morning to confirm arrival time. When I wasn't able to answer the call, they called two more times to ensure the arrival time would work. Juan arrived, wearing a mask, was super courteous and took the time to inspect each entry that required work. Took the time to provide the best possible end result: multiple items rekeyed to spec and with simplicity and security in mind. Paid $300 for the service which was more than I originally budgeted for the project, but didn't mind, given the quality of service, clean installation, and promptness. Would hire again. Thank you! read more

Called for assistance in an eviction entry/rekey situation. They showed up on time, prepared, and charged me exactly what they quoted. I am extremely pleased with the service I received. read more

Responded quickly, excellent value and easy to work with. I highly recommend Tommy. He helped me duplicate my key for a new truck
