Alex is the best -- honest, fast, and saved me hundreds 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. read more

Alex was really fast and friendly. Helped me when I mistakenly locked myself out of my apartment. It's not a cheap mistake but that's not the point when you are out of luck. I appreciate that Alex showed up in 10 minutes and finished the job is literally 20 seconds, saved my day. read more

Arrived on time, repaired broken lock quickly, was polite and transparent throughout. Price reasonable and fair. Even offered extra keys. Highly recommed. read more

I searched for key duplication and got this result. Walked all the way over to this place. It's not a storefront. And it's definitely not where you go to get a key duplicated. read more

Great job called, 2hrs later done changed out lock on my sliding door. So happy it works perfectly. read more

I would not recommend this business for a car key duplication. The technician was not able to create a duplicate key that locked all four car doors (only three car doors), and then still tried to sell the non-functional duplicated key to me. In addition, he broke the driver's side door locking function. Our existing key that used to fully work now only locks three out of the four car doors. The only way to lock the driver's side door is to turn the switch on the car door to lock it from the inside before leaving the car. I will have to pay far more money now to fix the broken driver's side door locking function in addition to duplicating the car key, which was my initial request. read more

Adam was amazing the job was perfect and really fair price I really recommend about them read more

We couldn't get our issue resolved with the key fob, but the customer service was great and still grateful Alex came out. I'll be recommending just on the customer service and interaction. Thank you for your time and kindness. read more

I used Yelp's chat tool to find someone who could help me with a doorknob replacement (the door wasn't automatically latching because the spring wasn't working). I was connected with Alex and got on the phone to describe the issue. He happened to be nearby and was over at my place within 30 minutes. My door was pretty old-school so he ran back to his place to get the right mechanism to fit my door, and was back almost immediately, and another 30 minutes later I had a new, good-looking, and (most-importantly) functional / auto-latching doorknob. Price wasn't great but was in line with my expectations. Thanks Alex! read more

Don't recommend to hire this person He came on time and responded fast. However I only asked to replace two basic locks as I lost keys. I was not in urgency as o had access to my garage. He offered also to change the entire lock for a better one and agreed my old ones were trully cheap. My huge mistake that I own is I didn't ask him how much as I thought he was going to be reasonable. I had multiple vendors at the same time fixing my home and I didn't ask. It took him 45min to remove old ones from main door and install new one. He installed Schlage key lock set, the handle and lock and the upper key lock set are available for 60$ on Amazon (is not my fist lock) and he did change the cylinders to new one. Is not my first lock I am very experienced with home repairs For this he charged me originally 700$ and then down to 650$ after I told him he should had ask me first if this was going to be that price. Sure I own my mistake of not asking but don't trust the ethics of this vendor at all, hence I don't recommend this vendor. He did install it properly. Lock a price for the install when you hire a vendor and if you want to install a new system buy it yourself. read more

My elderly Aunt accidentally locked herself out of her home, and despite her attempts with a key, the lock itself was stuck.

Alex responded to my request for a key fob replacement for my lost key fob. His price was much better then going to the dealership and he beat the price of another lock smith plus he drives to your location'. Alex recoded my car so that the lost key fob could not be used again on my car. He is professional and easy to contact. read more

The latch mechanism on my young son's bedroom door broke around 9:30pm on a Sunday night. Fortunately the boy was not in his room, but all of his school stuff was, and the heater was on in preparation for his bedtime. I called Alex, and after a short conversation, he gave me a ballpark estimate over the phone, and was at my door within 15 minutes. He was professional and quickly got the door open (and even had some kind words about my problem solving attempts prior to calling him). I thought his pricing for a Sunday night at closing time was extremely reasonable, especially considering how stressful the whole situation was. It was a huge relief and Alex definitely made our night. read more

I recently needed help programming my fob/keys for my Mazda 3, and Alex was a lifesaver! It was super easy to coordinate a time via text to meet up and get the keys programmed. He showed up on time and made the entire process stress-free. I appreciated the fact that he also took the time to explain what he was doing because I had an after market fob that might not have worked for the programming. His pricing was fair and provided honest, excellent service. If you're looking for a reliable locksmith who knows their stuff, Alex is your guy. I would definitely go back to him again ! read more

Love this tech! Got here in 10 and unlocked our door within 5 mins! Amazing thank you so much! Really appreciate fast service!

Straightforward and good work. Called for a new car key and had a house lock checked at the same time. Friendly, good communication, competitive pricing. read more

Quick response for weekend lockout. Fair price and and he was super nice and helpful.

Trust Alex! I lost my wallet and key and needed my lock changed immediately since my drivers license had my address on it. He came in a half hour, and worked with me to find a lock that matched by brass handle. He also fixed the handle which was loose, and gave me advice on the locked box that I kept my spare key in. I have a metal one which is better than the plastic ones that thieves can just bust into. And he is reasonably priced! A pro, and so kind and respectful. read more

Had to get a lock rekeyed for a rental. Reached out to ACE earlier today and Alex provided a quote via text after I sent him photos of the lock. I told him that I'd get back to him to schedule. I managed to free up some time this evening so I texted him to see if he was available. He was! He was able to come by within the hour and he rekeyed the lock in about 10 minutes and provided two new keys. Alex did the job faster and better than the last locksmith I hired to re-key that lock. I have his number saved in my phone. I'll be using Alex for my future locksmith needs. I was chatting with Alex and he said he's a mobile locksmith and works out of his van. He said he also gets a lot of calls for car keys. read more

Yes, definitely recommend Alex w/ Ace Locksmith! Excellent service, quality & prompt service. Thank you, again! read more

**1 out of 5 Stars** Where do I even begin with this customer service nightmare? I called in with a simple question, and it was like I was asking for state secrets. The person on the other end sounded like they were chewing gravel, and I had to repeat myself so many times I lost count. It was as if they were trained to be as unhelpful as possible. I got more attitude than assistance, and by the end of the call, I was the one apologizing for bothering them. Save yourself the headache and go elsewhere. Customer service here is a masterclass in how not to treat people. read more

Alex from Ace Locksmith has helped me out twice: first when I locked myself out, and then (as a direct consequence of the first instance) when I asked him to install a new smart lock for me. In both instances he was a terrific communicator, arrived quickly, completed the jobs speedily and professionally (the second proved to be more complicated than originally anticipated), his pricing was fair, and was an all-around good guy. Obviously, since I went back to him after my first mishap, I recommend him highly. read more

A very good locksmith. Polite, reasonable price, and very high quality. I recommend them! I am glad I chose this company. read more

Alex was able to fix one my existing keys and went the extra mile to get me a spare on New Years Day. He tried 3 different keys to set me up with a push start key fob for my 2009 Toyota RAV4 which was no small feat. He brought all of the equipment in his van to my home making it very convenient. read more

Great, quick service after calling at 4:50 pm on a Friday night. Very much appreciated.

When i locked my keys in my car with a toddler just minutes away from a nap time meltdown- I panicked. Ace locksmith responded to my distress signal within 5 minutes and showed up in about 15. It took him no more than 5 minutes to retrieve my keys. I'm not sure what the going rate for this service is because I was in a pinch but Ace was super fast, efficient, and friendly. 10/10. Highly recommend this lifesaver. read more

Alex is great. I had ordered an off market key which turned out to not have the right chip. Alex tried for an hour to get it to work, even McGievering some of the keys he had to get to the chip to work. In the end, I had to have him order a new key, but appreciated his dedication! read more
