We were locked out of our house late in the night over a weekend and called David for help. He had previously re-keyed locks for us and we were very impressed with his meticulous work back then. David arrived right on time (within 20 minutes of calling him!), found a way to open the door without damaging the locks and even stayed back to help us setup the electronic keypad so we don't get locked out again. Finally, despite the odd hours and short notice, David's prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be calling on David the next time we need any lock-related service. read more

David is able to help out really fast and reliable for us. Thanks to him. Will recommend and use his services again

David the locksmith responded quickly, arrived on time, was efficient, and provided great advice for securing my entryways. Definitely would recommend. read more

David the locksmith is the best. He is a total professional in every way. Responsive and fair pricing. Highly recommend.

We had a part shear off inside our front door deadbolt that rendered it inoperative, trapping us inside. :-( Once I took it apart I realized I didn't want to replace the deadbolt (causing us to rekey the entire house) and needed a locksmith. David the Locksmith looked good and we called him. After looking at pictures we texted him, he knew exactly which parts to bring. He correctly identified our deadbolt as Sargent (not typical in residential) and he put in a new Schlage deadbolt but used a Sargent lock so our old key continued to work! Showed up in a mask, promptly slotted us into a time that miraculously opened up, and did great work quickly, in a professional manner, and at a VERY reasonable price. Can't recommended David more highly. He would get six stars if I could give it! read more

David the locksmith gets more stars then I can post on here, he gave me a very nice quote, other locksmiths in the area were almost 100% over his price point. This was for a business and he was great, nice to my staff, gave good feedback, and was consistently in communication with me, as well as didn't want to rob me blind because he knew we had to get this done no matter what. Honest and transparent, thank you! read more

David was amazing! He was quick, affordable, reliable and everything works perfect! I'm not sure there is more we could ask from the experience. Highly recommend! read more

He isn't someone to leave you hanging. Efficient at replies, scheduling and his work and very pleasant to talk to. Highly recommend.

Very punctual. Did good work. Pricing is very reasonable. 10/10 will recommend and use again.

David is highly skilled at what he does. He answered the phone when I called, was able to set up a date and time, came in earlier, and finished the task for us us in no time! He was also very friendly and super accommodating with all our questions. I highly recommend David for your locksmith needs. read more

David was the first to respond to my query and was very professional. Set expectations correctly and then delivered. David thanks for helping install a lock. Too many things were being orchestrated and you fit in exactly. Thanks read more

Absolutely a great job. I would highly recommend him. Came on time and completed the repair efficiently. Very polite.

This is the second time David has done exceptional work for me. He braved any Covid fears, arrived with his mask on and maintained 6 feet of distance at all times. I am certain he also sanitized his hands properly as he is very conscientious. He put on new front door hardware for me, making sure everything worked perfectly-tweaking this and that until he was completely satisfied with the end result. I was surprised at how little he charged me! Thank you David for going above and beyond making the world a safer place, This night shift nurse (who sometimes takes care of Covid patients) will certainly sleep better now : ) read more

David was awesome, quick, tried to save me money, spent time giving me security advice, just awesome experience. I needed a locksmith to come out and re-key all the doors in my house that day. That is a bunch of locks when you include the additional deadbolt on a few doors, not to mention short notice. I called a couple of brick and mortar places, no answer so I turned to Yelp to find someone. I saw the page for David and it looked too good to be true, so many 5 stars and a smattering of 5 star reviews from people who had done only one review. I read all of the reviews, looked up the people who had a larger number of reviews, they looked legit so I called him. (look at my reviews, they may be poorly worded with bad spelling, but I'm a real reviewer) David answered my call on the second ring, asked me what I was looking for and gave me a quote on the spot. I've used other locksmiths for this and other things before and his quote was really a really good price. I mentioned that my wife was thinking about a keyless lock on the front door and he offered to pick one up at home depot on his way over. I don't believe he stocks a bunch of stuff, it's just him and his van, but I can buy something at the Home Depot for the best price and have him just charge me for installation. I'd say that's a great deal. David did the job very quickly, he offered a couple of times to do things that would save me money. For example I had one door that was keyed differently than all the others and he told me that we could just leave that one alone and I'd save money. He didn't have to do that. He also spent some time helping me figure out what I might do for added security etc. I'd have one piece of feedback, and his has nothing to do with his service, and that is the unmarked van. If I was him, I'd have my business name or at least "Locksmith" on the side of the van to identify it. Spooks you the first time you see it parked in your driveway (but NOTHING to worry about after you meet him, just feedback) All in all a great experience and I won't use anyone else if he is available. A very pleasant guy who does a great job. I went back to work and told people about him and sent his info around to people who asked for it. No better advertisement than that. Thanks David ! read more

I was on the search for a reliable locksmith, who wouldn't charge me an arm and a leg for his services. I turned to Yelp to help me find someone, and I came across David the Locksmith. After reading half of the reviews, I decided to give David a call. We made an appointment for him to swing by my house the following week. He gave me a call back a couple hours later and told me he had time to squeeze me in the same day I called. David showed up on time and changed all my locks for a very reasonable price. He was exactly the kind of locksmith I was searching for. read more

David was very quick to respond and resolved my locked bedroom within the hour of me making the initial call. Superb service and expertise.

My review is nothing new. As already mentioned by other reviews, honest, competent, and efficient locksmith. David explained to me the cost prior to the work being done and wanted to get my verbal confirmation before work begins. I said ok then he took care of replacing my vintage locks. Nothing extras added to the priced quoted. Give David a call. You won't regret it! read more

I don't really know what I can add that hasn't been said previously. Working with David the Locksmith (he's a locksmith, I don't think "the Locksmith" is his legal last name), was an all around great experience. The wife and I decided to try to replace the handles in our front door of our new home (goodbye, 90s brass!) and... well, it got ugly. We hit a point of frustration around midnight a couple nights ago and decided to look for a locksmith. I got my first reply from David around 3 AM (wow) and after a few more Q&A so he could understand the situation, we scheduled a time. He was prompt (even offered to come a little early), friendly, and the work was great. Price seemed completely fair for the time & quality of work he did and we're super happy with the output. Would highly recommend and use again for any other locksmithery we need. PS - I did ask if his name was actually "David" since I thought it would be hilarious for some guy named Jim to open a company called "David the Locksmith" - or maybe he bought the business from a guy named David and just didn't want to change it, kind of a Dread Pirate Roberts thing... read more

How can a one man show business be excellent service, quality craftsmanship, and also be the cheapest price around? I don't know how he does it but I will NEVER mess with buying and replacing deadbolts and entry door hardware again. Perfect. We wanted our entry locks changed. He changed 2 deadbolts and 2 entry knobs. Check his site in the link above - that's the price you pay - no surprises or excuses. And he was even EARLY! All the keys were cut perfectly and everything worked great - smooth action, no sticking or pulling the key out a little to get it to turn... read more

At first , I thought "David" was a total jerk. I emailed him based on the many Yelp reviews, and it took most of the evening for him to get back to me via email. He reported that , " he was slammed all weekend but could be at my home maybe Sat. afternoon around 3". I waited patiently thru most of Sat., (SeaFair weekend), with my irritation building. Reached out to him and was honest about my irritation and stress and he responded like a champion. Ok, now i get the Yelp reviews praising his service and awarding him 5 stars! David must have heard the annoyance in my voice because he really went above and beyond to help me solve my issues with my locks that had become unusable because of their age and the extreme heat we were experiencing . Despite having a slammed day , David offered me his assistance to diagnose the problem. After literally sitting there on the phone while I removed both my lock and door plate, he then diagnosed the issues for FREE (using photos), and let me know what my options were from a price standpoint. Couldn't say enough good things about this honest, kick- ass professional. He walked me thru my lock issues so that i might be able to handle them myself for less money . Wow! I don't think I have ever had any service professional offer to assist me via phone- diagnosing and fixing my problem,all for FREE!!! Wouldn't hesitate to call him in the future with any locksmith needs. Someone willing to patiently assist a novice do-it -yourself'er with a lock issue on a busy Saturday, (losing the cost of my service call), is really the epitome of an honest and reliable professional. He reacted to my impatience and total ignorance with regards to locks, with consideration, kindness and patience. He is a total professional class- act, and a very considerate person; I couldn't recommend him more!! read more

David helped us install two deadbolt locks and align one existing door with a digital lock. He finished the project quickly and we like the finish. The existing door is well aligned now and the lock works smoothly. The price is good as well and David is now our go-to locksmith. Highly recommended! read more

A very reliable locksmith, he was at our house quite late in the night to help unlock our garage door. It was a super quick fix - I'm sure he made it look super easy. Only gripe was that he didn't give us any discount given the time taken to do his work - he spent at best 2 minutes with the locked door and unlocked it. I'd hire him again if in a pinch, but learnt the lesson the hard way - keep extra copies of all keys in a reachable place! read more

David is quick, professional, easy to work with. Got the job done promptly and communication was excellent at all times. This is the guy you want. Would strongly recommend. read more

We needed a couple of doors re-keyed. David responded same day (which wasn't expected), very efficient, reasonably-priced, and so pleasant. Give him your business and you won't regret it! read more

This guy is for real. Honest, competent and a great communicator. We had lost the keys to our back door (always use the garage) and needed to give the family a set of keys. We told David the lock was manufactured in Italy and I was not comfortable disassembling this lock. He quoted the price and we set the date. When he began working David determined he needed to remove the entire mechanism to cut a new key. An hour and 20 minutes later he was done. The key and lock work wonderfully AND the price quoted did not change. Don't be put off by the fact his location is Redmond. David will travel and meet at a time best for you. Highly recommend! read more

We hired David to replace an existing deadlock with a smart lock and to install a new deadlock and key them alike. David arrived at the arranged time, completed the work to a high standard (double checking everything before he left), and cleaned up all of the debris from the job. His pricing is very good value and transparent so we knew exactly what to expect. He will be our go-to for any future locksmith work we need done. read more

We've used David for a few years and are always grateful for his responsiveness, high quality work, and thoughtful approach. We trust him to do what's right and stand behind what he does - totally worth what he charges. Highly recommended! read more

I have to apologize for my tardiness in writing this review. If I could, I'd give David six stars! He came to my home on 2/3/16. He arrived when he said he would, did what he said he would do and charged what he said he would charge! Who does that anymore?!?!?!? Thank you for your excellent service and transparent pricing! read more

I have never written a Yelp review before, but after David was so helpful I felt compelled to sign up just so I could. We had an emergency situation with a 2-year old daughter who was accidentally locked in. I am usually in the habit of carefully researching potential businesses, but unfortunately, in my haste, David wasn't the first I called. Another guy I had called just minutes earlier was already on the way and I felt that I couldn't do much about it. David could have left it at that and continued on his way, but he cared about our situation and called back later to follow up and ensure we were being taken care of -- even BEFORE we were a customer! The "other guy" turned out to be incompetent (and likely a scammer). He said the lock couldn't be picked and wanted to "drill the lock" which would have ended up costing more than $200 -- and DOUBLE the advertised trip fee! I sent him packing and called David back. He literally "dropped everything" to come help us within minutes. It was a tough call because he had another customer to take care of too, but he took the risk to interrupt his other job to come and help us because it was a real emergency (*and* he even ended up keeping his other client happy as well). He picked TWO locks on the door within MINUTES and we had a happy and relieved mom and little girl. His bill? $65. (I didn't realize this until later, but he could have charged more because of the additional lock.) I have read the other reviews here and cannot agree with them more. David is an AWESOME stand-up man of integrity! I have already recommended him to my friends and family because guys like David deserve to succeed. GO DAVID! (Be sure to also read about his story in the About section of his website! I love it when I find people like David who so passionately love their work.) read more

David is excellent. It was easy to set up an appointment, he was on time, very knowledgeable, did the tasks quickly, and the cost was just as quoted. Couldn't ask for better service. Thanks David. read more

David's 5-star rating is well deserved. He was friendly and flexible on the phone when we set up an appointment working around Christmas. (Of course, that's when our mailbox lock would decide to reject our keys.) He arrived on time, replaced the lock quickly, and made a third key for which he charged what can only be called a nominal fee. I doubt I'll need his services again, so the only way I can help his business is by encouraging you to put him at the top of your list when you're looking for help from a locksmith. read more

My washer had "walked" out of position from a overloaded spin cycle and blocked my doorway entry. There was no other way to get in a part from calling in a locksmith to help me get back into my laundry room. David came to the rescue quickly and helped me open the door and even helped me re position my machine. Really appreciate his help. Will recommend! read more

David re-keyed and installed a dead bolt the same day I called. He was friendly and professional. Most of all he was reasonably priced and trustworthy. read more

All of these 5-Star reviews were apparently legitimate. After arriving home from being away for several weeks, I discovered the batteries to the smart lock to the deadbolt on my front door had died. I being totally inept of not carrying my spare house key or garage door opener had no way to get into my home. I texted David and he arrived within the hour and solved my issue. Very courteous and professional! Thank you so much! read more

Great service, prompt and to the point! Replaced a stuck key entry lock. I recommend David for all locksmith needs!

David was an awesome locksmith who came to install a deadbolt at our home a month or so ago. He was very personable, professional and has very good prices. I called around to several other locksmiths and his prices were far better than the others I called. He was trustworthy and kind. I would call him in an instant if I had a need for a locksmith again. He was top notch! Give him a try...you won't be disappointed. read more

Loved the service. I did not have to pay much attention but David was done rekeying three deadbolt locks faster than I had anticipated. Earlier, I had to give an extra push when locking my front door because of misalignment. David happily readjusted/filed the strike plate on the door frame to make it much smoother for no extra charge. I'll probably get him to install one of those smart locks if I buy one since I hear installations for them can be very finicky. read more

David was great! He showed up on time, shoes off, ready to get to work on move-in day. He worked around other contractors and was friendly, efficient and a great communicator. His pricing was easy to understand and he stuck to it. read more

Looking for a locksmith? Stop and just hire David! I was having a problem with a (self attempted) failed lock replacement on my front door so I reached out to David for help. He was able to come same day (and I wasn't even in an emergency situation!), diagnose my lock problem and fix everything in about 30 minutes for an incredibly reasonable price. He didn't try to upsell me on anything and provided exactly what I needed. He was knowledgeable, quick, affordable and professional. I will certainly use him in the future for any locksmith needs and would highly recommend him to anyone needing these services! read more

David is the best -- he is efficient, reliable and his prices were the best I found. He even took time to explain to me how the smart locks work and to brainstorm the best setup for me. He is super nice and I enjoyed chatting with him when he was in my home. Even when I had questions months later, he spent time troubleshooting with me. I would use him again and again. read more
