I purchased a 2010 Ford Taurus from South Bay Ford Lincoln, and after signing all the papers they gave me one key said they wouldn't provide a spare. Lame! When I later called the dealership to get the most basic duplicate made they said it would cost $250. Super Lame! I called Hamilton and they sent Eric to my house within 30 minutes. He made the duplicate and had it programmed and working within 20 minutes. Plus, he looked up how to find out the key code to unlock the door from the outside, which the dealership wouldn't do. All of this for $85! Eric was super cool and talked to me the whole time answering all of my questions about the locksmith industry. It definitely exceeded my expectations and I am completely satisfied with their service and price. read more

I'm a bit embarrassed to admit it, but after getting the keys to our brand new home, I accidentally threw away the keys to our mailbox the very next day! The day after I realized what I had done, I called Hamilton's and made an appointment for them to meet me at the new house and rekey our mailbox lock after work. Ryan showed up right on time, and was able to pick the lock in no time. Unfortunately, he ended up having to change out the entire lock and it wasn't as easy as anticipated. The lock wouldn't budge and he had to saw it out. He even shaved our mailbox door down after noticing it was closing flush. There was never a huff or puff after unexpected things kept popping up. He was very friendly and professional, and priced well. I will definitely be calling Hamilton's again, next time I need a locksmith! read more

Had a couple of remote keys w/ transponders duplicated and the service was top-notch. Talked to Ryan and he happened to be in the area so I met him at his next client's house. He cut my keys w/ the precision of a miniature sculptor in his little workshop on wheels and even hand filed them afterwards because he wasn't happy w/ the lack of smoothness when key was turned, perfectionism! Next, the transponders needed to be programmed and that took all of 3 minutes for both keys. I attained the keys from EBay and w/ Hamilton's reasonable prices, a total of 15 minutes of my time, it made for a great Father's Day present for Pops. read more

Easy. Quick. Friendly. Solved problem and opened my door. Nothing more I can ask for. Thank you!

Had an appointment at 9 a.m. In the morning at the shop in Torrance. Nobody showed up called the number on the front of the door of the shop. Said they were running late, though it sounded like he was just waking up from bed. Frustrating when you make an appointment and drive to their shop and they don't show up. I felt lied to and I doubt very much that they were running late at 9 a.m. in the morning. Went somewhere else to get the job done and I won't be back to Hamilton's lock and key. read more

The level of service with this team is incredible. Ryan has been a real professional with the issue that I had him fix. Essentially, the housing on my ignition was busted and needed to be replaced. The dealership wanted over $1000; Ryan was able to do it for far less. Great service, great pricing, real convenience (he was able to come to my work to have this done), super professional- you can't ask for anything more. I am more than happy to recommend him to anyone with the same issue. Thank you Ryan!!! read more

I was referred to Ryan by Old Town Lock and Key who is itself a great locksmith. Ryan is pretty popular, but the wait was worth it. He duplicated a Mercedes ML 320 key that mercedes I longer carries. The price was $175. Lazari wanted $595. And another locksmith wanted $395 to program a key (can be bought on eBay for $70). He mostly works out if his truck and is very friendly. read more

Ryan was great. It was after business hours and he did everything he could to fix the lock, but it needs to be replaced so he is coming back tomorrow. I was just super impressed with his promptness, professionalism, and how hard he really tried to make that old lock work. read more

Needed to get 3 doors rekeyed due lost keys. Joseph came within an hour and was finished in 20 minutes. He was pleasant and very knowledgeable, he made me feel at ease. Job well done, I will definitely recommend Hamilton's 24/7 Locksmith. read more

I was very impressed with the services and professionalism that came from this company. I called and right away they were very attentive to my needs as they were there in 10 minutes. Ryan took care of me and was so nice to text me ahead of time letting me know he was on his way. I also think there prices are very affordable compared to others. Ryan was very nice and pleasant to deal with. Very down to earth guy. I highly recommend to use Hamilton 24/7 Locksmith.They will be there very quick which takes away all that stress you have to deal with.I've had to wait about an hour for other people.Thanks Hamilton! Sabrina read more

They are super! . I would describe them as 1.) Honest 2,) Fair 3.) Very capable 4.) Professional I would recommend them very highly. They are the only locksmiths I will call from now on! I had them do a real variety of projects and I was totally satisfied with everything they did. Eric and Ryan are awesome! They are the kind of guys I would trust my keys with. That is not something I could say about some of the other local locksmiths around. read more

This is by far the greatest key & locksmith service we've ever gotten. My key shell broke, had already changed in two times with another company. Once Ryan did it, I immediately felt the difference. Amazing quality! Sturdy and very good pricing. He was able to work with me and meet me at a nearby location. I've never been happier.. thank you so very much read more

I had Hamilton 24/7 Locksmith come out on a Sunday at 6pm and he did a great job! He said he would be at my house in 30 minutes, I am pretty sure it was more like 20minutes. He was professional, and our locks work great! Saved us a lot of stress in trying to make the lock set work. Affordable too. I highly suggest Hamilton 24/7 locksmith to anyone in the Southbay and surrounding area. My husband and I plan on using this company for all our lock needs! read more

This was a terrible experience dealing with this particular lock smith, first of all he broke my steering column while attempting to remove my ignition. The guy didn't even know how to put it back together,when he was finally done I asked for a discount because of the poor job he did and he agreed. When he left I tried to turn the steering wheel and it wouldn't turn at all, I called my mechanic the next day and he fixed it after replacing all the internal parts Hamilton's broke. I gave the locksmith a call and requested a full refund and the lock smith Ryan agreed but I haven't been able to get the refund because Ryan constantly dodge's me and ignores my call which is why I'm posting this review. P.s Beware! read more

$150.00 to open the must common lock and by the way they don't tell you that on the phone, just when the are already here, which at that point either way you are already down $65 dollars. I know locking myself out is my problem and definitely learned the lesson. Hope never have to call this guys again. read more

I got locked out of my place today and needed a locksmith to come asap on a late Saturday afternoon to help me out. After calling around to at least 4-5 different places, I decided to go with Hamilton 24/7 Locksmith. They were the only ones who gave me not only a reasonable quote over the phone, but also assured me that they could get to my place in 20 minutes. Ryan came through as promised, he arrived in less than 20 minutes, was really awesome and easy to deal with and is a skilled locksmith and got me back into my place in no time! I would highly recommend Ryan and his company to anyone who is looking for a great and stress free experience. Hopefully I won't get locked out again anytime soon, but if I ever need a locksmith for any reason, I won't hesitate to use Ryan and his company again! read more

I needed an front entry door complete hand set and a double dead bolt lock installed on a late Saturday afternoon. I did Not know if a locksmith would do all the work. I called Hamilton as they were on call 24/7. To my surprise they could come out right away and do the work. Eric arrived in 30 minutes and even did a courtesy call first. He was very friendly and professional. He did a great job of installing and was quite considerate of doing a good job and keeping things clean during the work. Highly recommended!!! read more

Whoever this guy is, I had to wait 1hr and 20 minutes and he ended up having his phone off so the dispatcher and I could not get a hold of him. Had to use another locksmith that scammed and made me pay $200+. UNRELIABLE. read more

Quick responses from owner! He copies the most complicated keys at a cheap price! But this address is not a valid one he's really located in Torrance. Call for the address first! I ended up at this location and it was a P.O. Box. Smh lol read more

Hello Fellow yelpers! I have used Hamilton's locksmith twice, both times I was extremely satisfied. He was fast, efficient, got the job done, and his price was the best anywhere in the South bay! He had all the tools to get the job done. Once the job was complete he walked me through all the work, he even did work that was not included in the estimate, he stayed until the job was complete and I felt safe. I have never seen a locksmith that truly is always available (24/7), he responded within minutes and was very accommodating to fit my schedule. It even was dark and raining, that did not stop him, he still came out worked through the rain. I would definitely recommend him to family, friends, and commercial properties. read more

Used their 24 hr mobile service 3 times and will not hesitate to call at anytime and fix my issues right away. Owner is knowledgeable and fast and reliable. Definetly a repeat customer and no need to call anyone else. read more

I got myself locked out and I called Hamilton's Locksmith on Sunday at around 5:30pm. In less than 30 min Eric came in and it didn't take him long to open my door. Service was good and efficient, for a very reasonable price. I recommend them if you find yourself in a similar situation. read more

Ryan was very personable and opened the lock quickly. Will definitely call them again! Price is a little high though....

Awesome, fast and affordable! Got my bag stolen at the gym with my car keys and everything. Called AAA and was quoted a ridiculous amount for a key. Called Hamilton locksmith and quoted me a more affordable amount. Thank you Ryan for coming out late last night and getting it done quick. Would totally recommend this place to anyone I know. read more

Now one of the locks that were so called changed is falling apart!!! How can 1 truely feel secure. Not sure if Ryan used smaller screws or just the wrong type of knob for my door but it has completely come off the door. Terrible terrible workmanship!!!!! read more

Amazing customer service. My husband recently lost his keys to our Prius. They were on top of helping us right away. I definitely recommend this locksmith if you're in need of help with locks for any sort of device. They are very knowledgeable. read more

They took great care of me. Cut and programmed 2 keys for me at a low price. Even told me where to go for my garage door openers. Any business that can do a good job and save me money will always have me as a customer. Oh and they did all this on the weekend when it's busy, which is an even bigger bonus. read more

Great service from Eric at 11pm. The guy is well prepared, and takes pride in his work. The cost was also very reasonable.

Great service. Helped me out with a tricky situation and did it with professionalism and speed!

Eric was great! Very nice, very quick. But they charged me $100 to opening my lock in 20seconds. read more

I just wanted thank to Hamilton's 24/7 locksmith for being absolutely honest fast service and great price for the work you done, I am highly recommended to everyone. Thanks again. Danny read more

I called Hamilton lock & key about reprogramming my car key to my Nissan Versa Ryan was very friendly and professional and got to the bottom of my problem after some expert research. Ultimately I had to get a new FOB but Their prices were incredibly reasonable. It was a very comfortable experience and I never once felt like I was being price gouged or anything, they have a very solid operation down there and I will most defiantly be coming back for any additional locksmith needs !! read more

I visited Hamilton in his shop in Torrance for a problem that I was having with my car's key fob(s). The dealer wanted $600 to replace, but he personally fixed the fobs with his soldering iron for a fraction of what the dealer wanted. He was courteous, professional, efficient, and affordable. Everything he repaired is like brand new. I would highly recommend this man for anything regarding keys. Total pro. read more

You're locked out of your house? Highly recommend their service. I called them to see if they can pick the lock at my house. Background: Two weeks prior, I was locked out of my house and had called a locksmith to pick the lock. The price was absolutely ridiculous ($200 total!) and they ended up drilling a hole to knock the pins out (and took a significant amount of time). We had not yet replaced the lock since our dead bolt still worked. Today, the lock on the doorknob got locked again. I called a few locksmiths as an attempt to locate the previous locksmith so that I could ask him to back up what he had done and unlock the door for no charge. I couldn't remember the name of the locksmith and ended up talking to 2 companies that were no help until I reached Hamilton's. Ryan picked up the phone and his professionalism was immediately recognized. I explained what happened and he was very solution-oriented. Within 15 minutes, he was at my door and provided his assessment of the situation. We realized that not only was I way overcharged with the previous locksmith, but the job was left shoddy and apparently problematic, as I was in this predicament again. To our benefit, we jigged the lock with our key as a last attempt right before Ryan was about to use his tool - and opened the door. Although Ryan didn't get to perform the service for us, we knew we could rely on his knowledge, his professionalism and promptness. He gained our trust in a matter of minutes and did not even charge for the service call because he understood the situation. We would trust his service and absolutely recommend his company for any residential, commercial or auto owners! read more

I called due to loosing my keys, and they came out same day. Was very happy with their service. I will use them again.

This was the only company, out of the three that I called, that could be here the same day and install a top-of-the-line lock.

Have used this service twice - needed a key made from scratch for my son's Civic. Prompt, great prices, friendly, comes to you - even at odd hours. Helped us out in a bind, so would definitely call them again & recommend. read more

Ryan was awesome! I called him early in the morning and asked if he could come ASAP to rekey my house door. He was prompt and completed the job quickly. Thank you again! :) read more

Great, prompt, honest & efficient service! Responded quickly at night and solved problem for a reasonable price! I called Hamilton's Lock & Key Service for an emergency lockout of my garage door. Owner Ryan Hamilton answered the telephone, and was very professional. I explained my predicament and he sent one of his technicians out right away, who solved my problem. The technician had a Hamilton's Locksmith shirt on, was very professional and efficient, and was friendly too! Ryan quoted me the price over the telephone, and that was the price I paid. That is VERY important, as there are scam-artist locksmiths out there that will quote low then rip you off when they arrive. Call direct ...three-one-oh 626-7873 read more

Made a call friday morning at 730am for lost car keys for a 2001 jeep (the type of keys that need the transponder in it) and they were at my door within 20 minutes. Ryan worked diligently to get my keys done before the 9am street sweeper came by. He finished the job with plenty of time to spare. The price was the fairest one out of the 3 companies I called. I would totally use them again. Don't forget to use the coupon on their website if you are a new customer. read more
