Thanks to Avi for arriving quickly and for repairing our locks. He was thorough and made sure that everything was working well with the locks before leaving. read more

I called 10:50pm on a week night. Left a voicemail, and Avi got back to me within minutes - he came straight from another job 40 minutes away. Beforehand he asked me to send a photo of the lock and from that he explained what the job would entail, and broke down the cost for me before I even asked - very straight forward, no surprises afterwards, which I appreciate! Extremely reasonable after hours rate, and discount for cash payment. He was professional and worked really fast, and the replacement lock he installed worked with the deadbolt that was already in the door. read more

This is at least my third time using DC Locksmith and again I was very pleased. Udi was responsive and transparent throughout the process. This was all the more impressive as he just had his third kid in the middle of helping me with my job. He walked me through the options and argued why the less expensive one was better for my rental property. I hope I never have problems with my locks but if I do, I will be calling DC Locksmith. read more

I received service on 9/22/19. From start to finish the customer service was amazing. Udi was very professional and communicated all steps of the process to me. I am pleased with the service I received an highly recommend this company. Thank you DC Locksmith. read more

My first call after closing on a new house was DC locksmith. They came out immediately. Itamar was on time, knowledgeable, and walked me through everything before he did it. He changed out 14 locks, many of which were in pretty bad shape, and even fixed some minor issues with the doors. read more

5 stars all the way! Service was excellent and fast. Udi gave me a great price. My lock had broken off into the door and as I attempted to fix it I made the problem much worse. He was still able to get it out and explain why it happened in the first place. He was also knowledgeable in giving recommendations for a better option on locks. Would definitely use DC Locksmith again. read more

I needed help after hours. They tried to give me instructions to get in on my own and when I couldn't, they sent someone right out. Avi was here within 25 minutes and got me inside in no time. They were up front about the costs and there were no surprises (which was very refreshing given my experience with other locksmiths in the area). Highly recommend. read more

After purchasing a new home, I wanted to have the piece of mind in my new home and called Avi who came out the same day and gave me a great rate. If you're looking for good value and security call DC Locksmith read more

Great service, aby was great! Very responsible, commutative and friendly. Highly recommended.

Was locked out of my house at around 930PM on a Wednesday. Extremely quick text communication and he sent a tech out within 40 minutes.

Responsive, efficient, smart, reasonably priced. Grateful for the quick and extremely competent service.

They were available within the hour (when I needed them), was on time, and got the door open and changed the lock promptly. All in all there were no fuss and no extra complications. Made a stressful situation much better. read more

I will preface this review by saying I am the vice president of my condo association and the services reviewed were for our property. With that being said, we are extremely pleased with Udi's services. He changed and repaired the locks for our property. He provided detailed quotes and explained exactly what he would be doing. Great value for the level of service. I highly recommend! So much so that I'm highly considering him for individual projects. read more

Udi was prompt, did a quick and thorough job on seven doors, and even pointed out an issue we had with the house that an inspector hadn't noticed -- saving us hundreds of dollars! I would work with him again in a heartbeat (but I won't need to, because his work was great and will surely last a very long time). read more

Simply put these two gentleman are awesome and very good at what they do.(Helping those of us who are moving too fast and accidentally lock themselves out of things/places, in my case my car) Story: I was getting ready to leave for the day and get some errands done, as I was leaving my house I had a handful of bags and other crap in my hand. To get these items out of my hand as quick;y as possible, I opened the trunk on my vehicle via my key fob and placed the items within the trunk. (My trunk was open however my car was still entirely locked). As i dropped all the items in my hand within the trunk( including my keyring with all keys on them) I was in such a rush i closed the trunk and realized at that moment my car keys was still in the trunk and now enclosed within my trunk. As i mentioned before once the trunk is closed it automatically locked itself back, along with all the other doors on the car. At this point I am pissed of and searched for and found "DC Locksmith". Review: I initially called "DC Locksmith" and Avi picked up, over the phone it was tough to understand him so he told me he would have his brother speak with me who's English is a little clearer to understand. Udi then called me back and we discussed price, car type, and location. Now I don't know where they are located but, wherever they were Avi arrived at my building within no more than 15minutes of the call. Upon arrival Avi went straight to work on unlocking my car door and had me back within my vehicle within 2min. All in all from point of initial call to me driving off within my vehicle it took a total of 20-25min. These guys are great, they are professional, very timely, and very efficient. I would recommend them to anyone locked out of anything, and if I am to ever get locked out of something again, they are definitely getting a ring from me. Great Job Guys and again Thank You so Very Much, -Jordan B. read more

This is my second time using DC Locksmith to re-key locks, and I hope to use them again soon. I have worked with both Avi and Udi now, and both have been great. The first time I used the company (about two years ago), I contacted close to a dozen companies, and DC Locksmith was very fair and competitive with pricing. The first time they were selected based on cost; the second on service and reputation. Having closed on a new house, I wanted to quickly change all the locks (most were not up to code, and required a key from both sides, rather than a thumb bolt from the inside). They came the next day, were very prompt, and let me know exactly what they were doing. They had to run out to get supplies, and returned directly. Very highly recommend DC Locksmith for any size job; the first job was very small, the most recent much larger. I always felt that they were taking the time to do the job well and keep me informed, no matter the size. read more

Udi is wonderful! He got back to me within 15 minutes with all the information I needed - a reasonable quote and an appointment the next day! He arrived on time per my appointment window as well as provided a 25 minute heads up. He even pointed me to a live sale going on to save me an extra $15. Will definitely call DC Locksmith for any future needs. read more

Avi from DC Locksmith was fantastic. He came very quickly, was polite, charged a reasonable amount and came up with creative solutions to issues with every door. He did the work quickly and I am so much happier now. Changes life day to day. Would definitely recommend. read more

Solid guys. I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for and we wanted a high security lock installed. They got it done right away, even though they didn't have the part, they went to get it, came back the SAME DAY and finished the installation. These guys stand behind their work which is always a mark of quality. Avi literally said to me "I'm not leaving until you're happy with this." You can't get any better. read more

Locked myself out of my house. Felt like an idiot. Called DC Locksmith because it was the top rating on yelp. I was told it would be $29 for the service charge and an estimated between $79-$169 depending on the lock for the actual service. 7 minutes (!) after hanging up to request an order, I got a call from one of their locksmiths saying he was on his way. 27 minutes later, he was in front of my house. My locksmith's name was Daniel (recently moved here from Israel), and he was awesome. He was friendly, quick to assess the issue, and had me back in my house in 5 minutes. Because it was just the door handle that was locked and not the deadbolt, I was surprised/annoyed when he said it would be $135 for the work. (I'd been expecting the lower end of the estimate, but truth be told, I thought I was going to be spending closer to $300, not $164 total.) Honestly, I don't know what more I could ask for. I was locked out of my house for a total 40 minutes because of their prompt response and knowledge of their work. I hope to not have to use them again (because let's face it...if you lock yourself out of your place, it's your own damn fault), but would absolutely not hesitate to call them again and/or recommend them to a friend. read more

I was in a pinch with a new apt locking myself out on day one, but DC LockSmith came to the rescue promptly and professionally. I tried a few others first ironically and they were closed for the holiday weekend (Thanksgiving). Fortunately DC Locksmith was running. The rates were reasonable given the urgency and the yelp coupon helped a bit. I also had the keys changed in addition to getting me into the apt. Smooth job and very cordial and timely! read more

We just bought a house and wanted to change the locks. Not only for security sake but also because the existing lock and keys did not fit well. Avi responded to my request for a quote very promptly. I should have known that his speedy response would be indicative of the manner in which he conducts business in general, very professionally. Avi called 45 minutes before arriving as a courtesy, always appreciated. Upon arrival, he quickly accessed the situation, provided options and got to work replacing my terrible existing locks. Now we have new locks and all fit the keys perfectly and operate smoothly. I cannot recommend Avi and DC Locksmith enough. If you need new locks or the services of a locksmith in general, give Avi and DC Locksmith a call. read more

DJ did a great job getting me into the house (even climbing over a fence!) and he spent a lot of time drilling the locks. He put 2 new ones in and only charged me for one, and then gave me a discount as well. AWESOME SERVICE FROM DJ! read more

Udi responded at almost the midnight hour (11.35pm) for my request to have my locks rekeyed. He looked at pictures and gave me an estimate right away! His arrival the following day was delayed and he text me to let me know. He was very accommodating waiting on me when I had to run out when he did arrive to the appointment. He rekeyed a front door, and security gate, and changed the locks on a garage door. All while being very friendly, efficient, and really an A plus experience. I am very pleased and would highly recommend this company for your locksmith needs. read more

Me. Avi was prompt and efficient in installing and unlocking my front door. He came out on a Sunday night!! And gave me an awesome deal with discount. I was so grateful for his services and even gave him a ice cold Gatorade. read more

Having locked myself out of my place on an icy cold night, I was ecstatic to hear that they could come rescue me in 20 minutes!! Avi came promptly and had me in in no time. My dogs were happy to see me!!! Apparently, Avi works with his brother. Very personable, professional and funny! Highly recommend them. Since I rely on these referrals, I make sure to leave a comment when I'm super happy. Avi, thank you for coming right away, getting me in and reuniting me with my puppies! read more

Udi was great. I can't say enough good things. Prompt in his responses; always consistent in what he told me and quotes ended up being less than what I paid. He is clearly VERY knowledgeable about security/locks and gave me advice that even saved me money. He is a pro and I would recommend him to anyone that needs anything related to locks. He will be my go-to for any and all things related to locks. read more

Overall, my experience was positive. Despite a couple issues, I would have still used DC Locksmith because the prices were the best and the owner is very nice guy. I called DC Locksmith after reviewing other locksmiths, largely because of the positive reviews. I asked for an estimated cost. The prices were good, and big plus: service call and other prices were normal until 10pm, which is very generous. I had some trouble getting in touch with the owner again later to schedule an appointment. Note that the owner is very busy, and this might have been a bad day. It's clear this guy works very hard. Here are the two main issues: 1. Unfortunately, although I confirmed the reservation the day of (no problem getting through), the owner was almost an hour late. It turns out he had an emergency call that took longer than he expected. He apologized, and gave us a nice discount. That's a pretty good sign. (He also gave us plenty of copies of keys, which is really nice because it was one less thing for me to worry about.) 2. I had several locks that needed rekeying, and I thought I was careful to confirm the price over the phone for all the locks, but it turns out the price was per lock. I've never had a lock rekeyed, so perhaps it would be obvious to someone else; but if you don't have a good sense for these things, make sure to ask for clarification about whether the price is per lock or for everything. That said, his price was still the best we could find for a 7pm service call. So both issues had a positive upshot. He was very friendly; he made some small talk, but otherwise very focused. We had a lock that couldn't be reset, but he gave it a lot of effort and didn't complain or try to charge us for it. He left us with some really useful info. If you're shopping around, definitely give this guy a call, especially if you want locks changed after 5pm. read more

Avi was extremely responsive and arrived at my house quickly to replace a deadbolt that unexpectedly malfunctioned and got stuck in the locked position. He was super friendly, knowledgeable, and easier to work with. If I need a locksmith again I would not hesitate to use DC Locksmith! read more

Yudi from DC Locksmith was responsive, polite, efficient, and thorough. He re-keyed four locks and put in a new deadbolt at the house we've just moved into - in about an hour. What I most appreciated was how responsive he was by phone and text. We scheduled this service a week ago, but when his tech's vehicle broke downYudi came himself. read more

Udi came to expedite help and provided wonderful customer service and expertise! Highly recommended for whomever looking for a locksmith in Washington, DC!!! read more

Avi was perfect, he came quickly and successful got my keys out of my car with not too much hassle. Thank you!!!! The best locksmith in DC!! read more

Udi changed the locks on my new home and was nothing but friendly and efficient. He gave me an honest assessment of what is needed, and I am very thankful for that. He was also super friendly and not phased by my curious dog. I highly recommend! read more

These guys are awesome. I grabbed the wrong set of keys on my way out the house on a Sunday and didn't realize it until I closed my door (locked from the inside). I was able to open my security door by sticking in hand through the mail slot, but the 2nd door was still locked. I called a few smiths who couldn't get out to me until later in the day. I then called DC Locksmith who could reach me in less than 30 minutes and were priced competitively. Avi got me in my house in less than 10 minutes (after checking proper ID and the such) and even repaired my damaged mail slot. The customer service was great from the initial call to payment. I'll definitely call them first next time. read more

Needed a locksmith to get back inside my apt. and Udi was punctual and professional and took care of the lock in no time. Reasonable price and excellent service! read more

I don't normally write reviews, but I feel compelled to write one based on the high quality of service I just received. These guys are knowledgeable, professional, and they put the customer first. I would recommend them to anyone. Here's why: I bought an automatic keypad lock on Amazon. In fact, I've bought the same lock before, and it works great. This particular lock, however, came with a manufacturer's defect. Avi identified the problem, called the manufacturer with me, realized we couldn't fix it in the moment, proactively offered to go to Home Depot for me and get a different lock. He bought one, came back, installed it, and I didn't like it (because I'm kind of high maintenance). It didn't have the same features as the one I had ordered. All of this took about two hours, and Avi didn't charge me for his time today because he knows the entire situation (though not his fault at all) was frustrating for me. In the meantime, I'm going to order a replacement lock, and he's going to come back and install the new one. The entire time he was patient, helpful and super professional. I was very pleased, and I will definitely be using these guys again for all of my locksmith needs. Don't look any further. Go with these guys. read more

Fast response, friendly service, and (amen!!) my new lock works perfectly. Thanks Avi!

We contacted DC Locksmith earlier this afternoon and when we spoke to the person that answered the phone, they said they were very busy and that they would call us back. They promised they would call back in 5 to 10 minutes. They said it more than once. But it's been well over an hour and they never called back. We're going to take our business elsewhere. I'm very, very disappointed. read more

It seems these guys just inspire 5 star ratings! We have just finished a major kitchen, etc. renovation. That left us with a two-key home after 8 years where one key had sufficed -- and we had a problem with the front door lock. We also had keys to our home scattered to the four winds with who know how many folks. It was time to correct the situation so I turned to Yelp for suggestions. An hour after I called DC Locksmith Avi was on the scene (having called to tell me he "might" be running 15 minutes late on a 1 hour promise -- he was not). After hearing of my wants he suggested a way to save money and achieve what I was looking for. A couple of hours later he was gone, having rekeyed six locks, installed a new lockset, and performed a couple of other random fixes. The service and quality of the work could not be any better than my experience -- and, he took the time to educate me a bit on how the inside of locks work. read more
