I absolutely LOVE bodeandbode! They have been there for me in serious crisis! This is the first place I come to for any kind of keys and medicine lock boxes. I trust them for my needs! Thank you! Darlene read more

Price gouging is real - i got an OUTRAGEOUS quote of $1400 JUST to add two hinges to my exterior door...pretty basic stuff. Gave the reasoning of taking off door, cutting in new hinges and rehanging the door, balancing and leveling...the typical stuff that ANY professional would do. Gave the song and dance thats not something we specialize in - okay, then just say you cant do it and not send me a ridiculous estimate. Had three other bids from the Angie's list website (you know, vetted professional), with the top estimate being $300. Which sounds fair for the two-three hour job. Sadly, someone elderly or inexperienced with normal home repairs would have probably gone for it based on their long standing reputation - well that shouldn't be the bases to take advantage of people. Do better B&B...your my neighbor, so be fair. Do research people, like I did. read more

Josh was outstanding! He was able to quickly identify the problem. He took the time to explain what needed to be done and had the problem fixed in no time. I highly recommend Bode and Bode. Be sure to ask for Josh. read more

Fast and efficient service! Shoutout to the technician I had: John. Was able to get back inside my apartment & got a copy made in less than 1 hour. Appreciate the help so much! read more

Had to hire these guys to come out and replace the lock and coin system on a laundry machine. The washer lock was vandalized in an attempt to steal quarters and the crook couldn't get in, only problem was neither could anyone else after he was done trying. They technically a B&B had to bring out some special equipment but they got the job done and gave me all the coins that were trapped in the old box. A little pricey but I would highly recommend, it was worth the coin :) read more

Have a safe and the battery died . I called 3 other shops first and the manufacturer and Bode & Bode told me they would help me and opened it real fast and free! I would recommend them to anyone that needs help ! They have great customer service and they were so helpful! Thank you guys! read more

Chris was great. He was informative, took care of our mortise lock. He understood what he was doing. It works! My faith in good work has been re-stored. We reached out to a mortise repair person who was recommended on Next Door neighbors. He came out at the end of his shift worked on the lock and left the mortise lock in a worse condition. We paid him to do more harm than good read more

Josh fixed the lock on one of my doors and went above and beyond with his customer service! Very pleased I will definitely use them again.

I have worked with Bode & Bode since I was Parts and Service Dept Mgr. at Foulks Oldsmobile 1965. They are the BEST. They can work on any lock and fix it right the first time. read more

I asked them to make 12 copies of 3 keys (2 regular and 1 mailbox), and they finished the job in 10 minutes. What really impressed me was the attention to detail - without my asking, they matched the key head shape and color, and when they gave me the keys, they put the original keys in the opposite direction from the copies so I could tell them apart. The employee also preemptively advised me that the copies of the mailbox key may not work properly because the original key was thinner than a standard mailbox key, but he said to come back if I had any problems and he would redo them at no charge. I checked all the keys and they all worked perfectly, but I appreciated the offer. Stellar customer service and high quality work, I highly recommend Bode & Bode! read more

I am so happy with the service here! I've been on the hunt everywhere for a very specific design of SC1 Mickey and Minnie keys. I tried several Home Depots, Lowes, and ACE. The man at downtown Sacramento ACE suggested I go here and I've never heard of this place. The young lady at the front desk was so nice and helpful! They had exactly what I was looking for and for almost half the price the big box stores were charging!! I find what I've been looking all over for, get to support a small local business, AND it's cheaper!? WIN WIN WIN! They have a bigger selection of key designs compared to the home improvement stores. They ran out of one of the keys I wanted but they said they'll add it to their next order and took down my information to let me know when they have it. Highly recommend this place! read more

Key copies made. Fast service. But I made two trips for multiple keys and was charged differently for the same type of keys each time I went. read more

Called on the weekend because I was frantic about my register not being able 2open. The owner immediately answered let me know his hours and fees and said it would be better for me to come in and save some money then to have someone. Come out over the weekend I agreed. I was in no rush and I was happy to have the service. It was really cool coming inside. There's a lot of history of Sacramento inside the location. It was easy to find it was right downtown in a great location. I really enjoyed spending time with the owner. He was very personable went over how it was family owned since the 1900s and one of the original families in Sacramento super cool. It's always great to meet the owner and them be passionate. After all the time on business. Great prices wide choices better experience than local homedepot. Will definitely return read more

Called Bode & Bode as an urgent call to get locks changed for a large house due to a family death. They were very thoughtful and helpful. Was given an arrival time of 1-4pm. We were contacted at 10:30am that they could come earlier. Work was done quickly and we feel much more secure with new locks and keys. We appreciate their quick response time and concern for the family. read more

Yesterday, I bought a door lock from Bode & Bode. Fitted with my key, it was $103. It was the wrong lock. Today, I went to Home Depot. The better lock that I needed was $43, a greatly improved one, far superior to the useless trash Bode and Bode conned me with. I also keyed it, works terrific. Bode & Bode, The cheating theives. The disgusting low-lifes. They should be imprisoned and whipped. read more

When my car key started falling apart, I went on a hunt around town to find somewhere that could replace it. The usual hardware stores didn't have the chip key that I needed and the dealership wasn't being helpful. I was referred to come to Bode and Bode. As a college student on a tight budget, the staff were super helpful in finding a reasonably priced option to replace it. It was a quick and painless process. They took care of programming it and we're very respectful throughout the process. They've won my patronage and loyalty. What great service! read more

I had a really great experience with Bode & Bode. I needed a safe removed that was left by the previous tenant without the code. I reached out to more than one locksmith without being able to get anyone to commit to coming out and taking the safe out (one of the other locksmiths even ghosted me when they said they would show up). I got super friendly and timely emails from Bode & Bode, someone came out right away and removed the safe. Then they gave me a great deal on a new safe, which they installed on the spot and walked me through how to set the code. I was so grateful for the excellent service and expertise! read more

By dumb luck I found myself locked out of my house. Bode & Bode sent a technician in a very reasonable amount of time. The technician was unable to pick the lock (it's rarely used and very old and oxidized-- I usually just rely on the deadbolt) but drilled the cylinder neatly and cleanly, extracting it with no damage to the doorknob. He installed a new cylinder keyed to match the deadbolt. I am very impressed with Bode & Bode's prompt and professional service. Rescued! Whew! read more

Bide and Bode is the BEST. They opened a safe in my wall during a cocktail party and were amazing! Prompt and friendly service and excellent sports. :) read more

As a former employee I would not trust them to clean the bathroom I've worked for 3:00 locksmith companies and these guys have to be the worst they overcharge people make up false information to replace locks on and on and on if you use these people you will be sorry if you want good service and people you can trust go to Swanson and Sons they are the best locksmiths in town and the only one I would recommend read more

Excellent experience. Called to see about getting my whole house re-keyed to one key. They sent Casey out same day. He was masked(Covid approved), courteous, and quick. The keys all worked perfectly. No complaints here. Highly recommend. read more

After 20 years of loyalty, I will never call this shop again. I've had an account for more than a decade. Other locksmiths are less expensive but I appreciated being treated like family, since I was giving them all of my business and as a property manager, that's a lot of business. There's a new manager who spoke to me condescendingly, to explain to me they can't gain access to a property without someone being there. I said well that's new because I have never had to be there. You know me. She said it's not a new rule. I said you can delete my account. Good job Jess. read more

I have two ~2000 Corollas, each had only one key. An automated key-kiosk at Rite Aid wanted $40 per copy. I figured there had to be a better professional alternative in town, and sure enough: Bode and Bode is legit. I got four keys (two copies of each), and two magnetic boxes for under $40. I was in and out in 10 minutes. Just got home and tested them - they all work perfectly. I don't usually write reviews but this experience really couldn't have been any better. read more

I have a Schlage keyless entry deadbolt on my front door and it stopped working. I really wanted to get it fixed instead of replacing it. I got burned by the first lock smith company I called -- the dispatch folks are nice but the actual locksmith was awkward and useless. He called three times before he showed up -- two hours late. When he finally arrived, he didn't seem to know how to fix it or have the tools to do the job. I basically paid $30 for him to say he couldn't help me! I was worried I'd have to replace the whole unit, but I decided to try again. I was so pleased at the service by Bode & Bode. The receptionist was sweet and answered my questions about their company and technicians. The service tech was on time and knowledgeable. He offered to fix the door knob too, and ran back to the shop to get with hardware that matches my existing bolt. Ended up spending a little more than I wanted to but was super happy with it. A friend of mine had recommended them initially but I forgot their name. I'll never forget it again! read more

Attentive, friendly, experienced professionals at Bode & Bode Lock and Safe. Cameron asked and answered detailed questions to ensure I understood the types of door handles and deadbolts needed to order correct hardware for our renovation project. I never knew there was so much confusing detail in a door knob, handle or deadbolt! Our general contractor insisted on installing the hardware but (unintended) delayed completion of installation. Becoming impatient, I scheduled an appointment to complete the installation. Casey arrived promptly for the appointment and properly re-installed what had been done by our contractor. I can't thank Bode & Bode Lock and Safe enough for their dedication to quality service. It pays to call on the best! read more

I had a great experience with this locksmith. They were Very professional, fast and friendly. I highly recommend using Bode and Bode. If you need a Locksmith in Sacramento, this is the place to go. read more

When you ask for service, when you're a long time customer and they tell you they want a copy of your new lease? I'm done using them. Weirdest question I've had yet. The gal answering the phone thought it was funny. The best thing about it was there was a number of other lock folks at the bottom of this advertisement, so, contacted them (Able Lock), and will meet me first thing in the morning. read more

Short and sweet -- Went in to get a key duplicated -- waited around the counter while four employees were doing other things and ignoring me -- No hello, no "one second" -- just ignored until a friend of one of the employees walks in and, get this, the employee gets up from his desk in the office to talk to his buddy who is standing right next to me at the counter -- I won't be back read more

After my last experience with Bode and Bode, I will not use them again. Called to have them check/troubleshoot my downstairs patio door lock since the deadbolt was not engaging with and the handle was loose. A locksmith came and futzed around and made the lock work (temporarily). Despite calling them in advance for an appointment and being a local locksmith, I was charged a $50 travel fee beyond the actual fee for repair, since inexplicably they sent me a guy from Tracy. Super lame. And the lock returned to jamming a few days ago anyways. read more

Polite but way overpriced. To cut a laser key they wanted 125. I already have the original key and wanted to make a copy with a blank I currently possess. read more

This is just a great business. They have been able to fix whatever I throw at them. We have a very old house with the original hardware and they fix it all. They even made me a new key to an old piece of furniture that had long been lost. I will call on them for all of my locksmithing needs forever! read more

Super quick and professional service. Key copy was extremely accurate. Highly recommend

We called Bode and Bode for a service to fix our front office doors and Wayne came to the rescue asap. We've been having trouble with the doors for a while now and had other people look and them and they were not able to fix them properly. I just wanted to give an honorable mention to Wayne who completed the job quickly and efficiently. We are so pleased to have our front doors up and running again and very happy with Wayne's service. Thank you!! read more

We found ourselves in immediate need of re-keying our entire house (thank you, a-hole who broke into our car and stole my purse!!). We called Bode and Bode on a Saturday late afternoon, and the technician was at our house only an hour later. He quickly re-keyed every lock in the house (we had two different kinds of locks, 6 total), and was done in time for us to get to a reservation with time to spare. For quick, thorough and friendly service: 5 stars! read more

Homeowner since 1980's - for keys, locks, and safes - have always relied on Bode and Bode. Today was first time that I needed mobile locksmith services to re-pin a Baldwin entry set that was installed in the 90's. I wouldn't hesitate a second to give them a call. read more

Bode & Bode rekeyed the locks in my new place, but charged significantly more than I had paid for this kind of work a year ago. The key they gave me said "Do Not Duplicate" on it. Home Depot refused to copy it and it wouldn't work in a self rekey kiosk. Bode offered to make a copy, but wanted to charge for it. They finally agreed to do it for free after a few days, but then wanted proof of residence. They get the job done, but are frustrating to deal with, at least from my experience. With what they charge I would have expected better customer service. read more

Great place for getting keys. We tried to get a new key fob, but unfortunately it wasn't a success. They were unable to program it. They were really nice about it and gave us a refund. I give it 4 stores as my issue was probably a more specialized request. read more

Totally agree with Kathy. Bode & Bode Lock & Safe is my choice for locks and keys in Sacramento. They have a huge stock of keys - so if you have a weird old lock like we do they can cut a key for you. Very professional and knowledgable staff. read more

called for service in am, Casey responded during expected time slot. he did a thorough, professional job on sticking double cylinder lock in custom made oak door. excellent service, knowledge, and professionalism. read more

Lock picking lawyer videos show how easy it is to break into basic locks. I went on an exhaustive investigation to find-out about high security locks. Old Medico locks appear fatally flawed. This lead to Assa Abloy high security locks which has since merged with Medico, fixing the fatal defect. Yelp lead me to Bode & Bode. Cameron went the extra mile to provide education on his experience as a locksmith, putting my fears to rest. I purchased high security locks for all access points and couldn't be happier. Now I am a returning customer and highly recommend anyone concerned with security to get educated and secured by Bode & Bode. read more
