I called a dozen different locksmith's in my area to help me create a new key for my motorcycle, because I lost my only one; I couldn't find a single locksmith except for Michael that was willing or able to help me out. He quoted me a very fair price and was at my front door 35 minutes after agreeing to help me-- he was super friendly and I highly recommend his services to anyone who needs a locksmith. read more

LIARS , DECEITFUL AND NOT TRUSTWORTHY. Today, I had MOSHE LEVY came to my apartment and he quoted me 175$ for a key change for a latch. When i decided to do 2 instead of one, he ended up telling me to Zelle him 399$ which is not 175 x 2= 350$. very Upsetting -- DO Not HIRE THEM ! read more

Thankful for Michael! He arrived within 30 minutes and quickly helped me out with unlocking my door. A fair price! Very communicative and kind. I called one of those bigger companies first, they lagged and were too expensive. Just go with Michael! read more

I could not recommend them more! They came to my aid when no other locksmith service could help me. Michael was so kind and got me back into my home in little to no time! Amazing!! read more

Pros- responds very quickly and was on time. Negatives- definatly price gauging. All he had to do was take off the latch and handle that had our door stuck. It took him 30 seconds and charged us $340 dollars. Price needs to be adjusted to fit the problem. Didn't even get parts but what charged for then. Wouldn't recommend due to the price. read more

HS Locksmith was very friendly, professional and quick to respond. He solved the problem in record time and charged a fair price. It was a lot cheaper than towing the car to the dealer and waiting several days to get it fixed. How many businesses make house calls and are open 24/7? Thanks again for your great service. read more

Mike was the best!!! Extremely communicative and efficient. He came within less than 30 mins and got the lock done in two seconds. So grateful he answered the phone because it was looking like I was going to have to sleep in my car. Highly recommend him! His price is fair and service is impeccable. Thank you so so much Mike. read more

Quick service, reasonable price! And fast response. I would def recommend this company if you're locked out

$400 for a simple mailbox lock change?!?! They charged $165 for "emergency" lock out, but we NEVER said our service was an emergency. Very shady. Very terse and unfriendly. STAY AWAY!!! read more

Fast and friendly service! Thank you for acting so swiftly! Highly recommend this business.

Michael was helpful Technician Joseph was good at helping and working with me and my family. Just pricing so up there but so is everything else Prompt complete service new key new fob starts no problem. read more

Did a favor for someone and helped them out with a car. Got towed and didn't tell me and found it at the tow yard business a month later. Great, but no keys. It was early in the morning so I was hoping to get to the tow yard when they opened. Mike responded quickly when I put out my call and it was early in the morning. We get to the place at the appointed time, and they aren't there. He calls and asks and they say they will be in there in 30-45 min. I felt bad because I could see he was tired. But he stayed til then. I went and got some coffee and came back. They didn't show up til almost another 30 min. Then we had to wait for the tow guy to move it out. Mike was really patient and finally was able start to work on the car. I had to go to an appointment and he said go, and offered to bring me the key when he we done. I knew I'd be back with in 30 min. Sure enough, I come back and he was still working. Finally got the key made and even got me the code to the car for keyless entry. He had worked with me on a price for key, but because of all the non-sense from the tow folks and him having to work in the hot sun for for two hours. I gave him his original quote and then some. In the mist of all this pandemonium, I forget to get the glove compartment key made too, but will definitely call him back. Cool, Calm, Collect, unassuming and customer service oriented. It is rare to see that excellent customer service and Mike needed to be rewarded for that. read more

Needed to get an extra car key made for my daughters car. Called the local locksmith and a gentlemen named Michael came over. Michael is a great person with excellent service and very professional. He arrived right on time, the cost, service, kind and courteous should be his middle name. He was able to make a duplicate key for my daughters car within 45min. He even changed the battery in the existing key FOB. Customer service at the highest level!!! Keep up the excellent work!!! read more

See all

Holy smokes! These guys got here in LESS THAN 30 mins! It wasn't cheap but it was far from a price gouge at that time or night (6:50pm Saturday night) and the quickness is unparalleled. The tech was SUPER kind and courteous and clean and professional! Never thought such a "bummer, what am I gonna do" situation was so easy to turn around so fast. Thanks guys. read more

We needed to have our safe opened immediately w reached out to HS Locksmiths and spoke with Michael. I texted him a picture of our safe for a reasonable price. He had our safe opened within seconds, literally!!! He was fast, courteous, diligent and professional. Thank you Michael and HS Locksmiths for such an easy, efficient job. We will definitely do business with you again if needed in the future! read more

HS Locksmiths - Long Beach - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Long Beach, California

Very fast response time 5+++ stars for that. Technician was nice. Replaced a broken ledge inside a door $350+ including a service fee of $50 that took 5 mins... price gouging at its finest. Why would you charge a service fee for a job that was going to be done anyways on top of the job. That's just greedy. read more

They came out quick than I expected. Sean was professional and curious. He knew was he was doing.

The locksmith they sent was awesome. I was more then satisfied with his work. 5 stars for him The business side was not as good. They would not give me any quote or idea as to how much it would be to re-key both locks before they sent the locksmith . $200 was quoted when he arrived and I think was a bit much and they were local so distance should not have been an issue. read more

Came to home on Sunday and programmed the fob and cut the key in about 20 minutes ( cost less then the dealer ) great communication via text very friendly and professional read more

I called on a Sunday and they came out on Monday morning to change my deadbolt and door handle. Fast, efficient and did a good job! Thanks!

The lever on my front door handle was sticking so I tried to lube it and in the process it seized up. I had to take the lock off to troubleshoot and then couldn't get it back on. I called HS to get a quote and got a call back saying the guy was on his way. I asked for an estimate and he said there was a $49 trip charge plus labor, depending on the kind of lock. I sent him pictures and he quoted me $150 which I thought was too much but I needed it done so I agreed. The tech was not a pleasant fellow but not rude either. It took him no more than 10 minutes to get the lock back together and then he told me the key was bad so that's why you have to jiggle it to get it to work. I've used the same key for 30 years and never had a problem with it before. Rather than try to do any further troubleshooting to earn his $150, he just left it at that. Pros: Very quick response time. Did the job as required. Cons: Somewhat surly tech. Did the minimum required. Very pricey for the amount of work done. read more

Excellent customer service, fast to provide service quotes, on time to our appointment, clearly explained all charges prior to starting actual work, and very fast completion to re-key my new house. Highly recommend!!!! read more

The only one who's got a 4-star rating out of the 4 locksmiths that I called (the other 3 have 5 stars) who answered the phone and actually got the job done. My neighbor locked herself out at 12:30am and drained her phone battery so I helped her get a locksmith. Michael (I think was his name) answered the call and arrived in 15mins. It was $175 but at least my neighbor was able to get inside her house and sleep on her bed. UPDATE: I initially gave a 4-star rating just because of the price (and because I normally don't give 5 stars unless I have tried the service a lot of times or I'm super impressed the first time). But thinking about it again, and after Michael telling me I followed the other's footsteps, I realized he still deserve a 5-star rating compared to the others. I'll just update this review again in the future, if needed. :) read more

Michael is a great guy! fantastic service - very professional. He arrives on time, he is kind and courteous. I used his services twice for an industrial building and will definitely call him again! read more

My Keys to my car was lifted and my car was stolen. Lucky it was spotted but in one of the worst places in town! No sign of the people that stole it or my keys, so the police just removed it off the hot sheet and left! So I called one of the only shops that was open late at night.HS locksmiths he was there in 15 20 min! He was in and almost done so fast I thought he was just starting. Fare price as well. Saved the day! Highly recommended! read more

I was visiting California from Texas. We were on vacation. suddenly my key rob to the Escalade didn't work. I contact Michael from HS locksmith he was there within 10 mins. thank you for getting my family back home. highly recommend HS locksmith. read more

Michael showed up in a reasonable timely manner. He was very friendly and polite and professional. Explained the deal and the process and went to work. Helped me out of a jam and i appreciated the help big time. Called 2 other locksmiths prior who I will not name and they did not even answer my call. One called back but 3rd time was a charm and HS Locksmiths saved my day yesterday. Thanks Guys! Hope I don't need the same type of service in the future, but if I do.. I got your number stored :) Thank again, Todd M read more

Mike, the owner of HS Locksmiths came out practically on a moment's notice to remove a key that had broken off inside the lock on my mom's front door. Not only was he quick but he also lubed the inside locking mechanisms, making the lock as smooth as it was when it was first installed years ago! The first locksmith that I called stated that the entire locking case might need to replaced being that it was aged, but Mike simply said that it just needed a lube and he was exactly correct and he didn't even charge me for that! Understanding that this was an emergency call, the price was more then fair. He even made copies of the key that was broken right there onsite! My fault is that I initially called another locksmith. Mike is the real deal! Great personality and truly cared, which showed in the quality of his workmanship! If you need a locksmith, don't look anywhere else, call Mike at HS Locksmiths and you won't be disappointed in the least! read more

This is my third time using HS Locksmiths for different reasons. This time I was locked out at 6pm due to my door knob breaking. Michael was able to not only come within a short wait time but was very knowledgeable about the type of knobs and locks. He was able to let me in and also gave me advice as what to do next. Reasonable priced! Will recommend. My go to! Laura read more

I was in a serious pickle. Lost my last key to my car and the only alternative was to go to the dealer and pick up a blank one and have it programmed at home. After going through a couple locksmiths, I decided to ask for quotes from 5 companies. Michael was quick in response and very professional. Gave me a reasonable price and explained what the charges were for. He arrived promptly and even called to let me know he was 5 minutes out. You expect to have someone impersonal but not with Michael. Very friendly and after about 15 minutes the key was programmed and we were done. I would HIGHLY recommend him for all your locksmith needs. Seriously, give him a try! By the way, once the job was done I received quotes from the 4 other places. All were way too expensive and late to respond. read more

My neighbor needed a locksmith at 10pm in a weekend night, and Dan came to our rescue! He said he would be here in a half and hour and he was! Reasonably priced as well. Will use them again if needed:-) read more

They were quick to respond to my request, booking the appointment could not have been easier and more convenient for me. The driver kept me updated on his ETA; when he arrived he was fast and professional. Highly recommend! read more

When I called this company to use their services, they said they couldn't quote me over the phone since they had to see the lock. I asked for a price range and they couldn't give it to me. I called a few other places that gave me quotes over the phone, so I thought I had a good idea of the charges. The only reason I went with this one was due to their availability - 10 mins versus an hour and a half. When the locksmith came, he said $175 for just the handle. By the time I was telling him that it was too much, he had popped my door open. 1 minute of work for $175 is messed up and preys on people's emergent needs. Skip this company. Maybe there's a reason for their quick availability. read more

Beware! This guy is a total scam. Not licensed. Totally illegal. I was absolutely taken advantage of. I was charged $1,045 for the cutting of 18 locks, a job that took him 10minutes. THEN he tried to charge me another $1,000 to replace those locks. Locks that go for $10 a piece at Home Depot! Hmm... $180 for me to go and buy my own or $1,000 for the exact same locks!?!?! I did NOT fall for that one. And that's when I knew. Reporting to the Dept of Consumer Affairs. Stay away from HS Locksmiths - Long Beach. AKA Michael and Joseph.... Always ask to see proof of license before hiring for a job/service. I learned the hard way. Don't make the same mistake I did. read more

My daughter went on vacation and took my only car key with her. i messaged HS Locksmith at 11 pm at night and got a response within minutes. in about 15 minutes Michael was at my house and was able to get me two new car keys! he was super fast and professional. read more

Mike was very polite and professional. Then his associate proceeded to charge me $220 for 5 min of work. I knew it had to be a mistake, that one of Mike's guys had tried to pull a fast one on me. Nope, Mike was the one pulling the fast one on me. $220 for 5 min of work. That's an hourly rate of ~$1500/hr. Crazy. I'm lucky to be in a situation where I'm financially stable, and although $220 is a lot of money, I can still pay rent and have food on the table. But I remember a time when I could barely afford to get by and many others who live a difficult life. I'm glad it happened to me instead of someone who's struggling. Shame on you Mike for seeing one's misfortunes as an opportunity. read more

Was at my place quickly. Cool guy who got the job done in no time. Lifesaver! Would use again and would highly recommend to anyone. Great job! Thanks Mike! read more

I requested a quote through Yelp and received a response hours later despite the average wait time being 10minutes. All I got was a number and when I asked if they could come by after 5pm I got no response. read more

I don't play games with my money. When I call for a service I expect to get all the information not scammed. They want $29 just to come to your house. They quote a low price over the phone. Then add $40 to the price when they get there. Sorry no thanks. Then the guy threatens me when I refuse to pay, because I am not about to be taken advantage of, saying they know my address, phone number etc. Oh an their deifinition of fast response is not fast. It's "I'll be there in 25 minute" then "I'll be there in 10 no 15 minutes." How are you going to charge a $29 fee when you can't be somewhere in the time you say you will be there. Oh and before the owner try's to blast me on here. He claims the price he gave me was a starting price for a door knob when I told him repeatedly on the phone that I didn't need the door knob I needed the deadbolt unlocked. FYI a starting price is not a quote. A starting price is low brow way of saying I'm gonna take advantage of you. It's amazing what companies will try to get away with when people are at their most vulnerable. read more

The first time I tried to work with this local vendor their assessment of what I needed was excessive. The second time, just yesterday, the tech showed up and argued with the resident that "its just an old lock". This despite my asking for a new cylinder that be keyed to match the residents key. Instead of replacing the cylinder he told her that she just has to live with it. He then wanted to collect a $49 service fee (fine) and $75.00 for "repair". The Tech kept trying to reach me to collect payment before I received feedback from the resident. Thankfully, I was armed with the facts BEFORE I took his call. He "waived" the "repair fee". He had the gall to ask "Do you think I can fix with magic?" To which I responded: Do not insult my intelligence. If I were there I would pull the cylinder and take it to Home Depot or ACE as either could replace the cylinder or reset the pins." I reported this to the owner of HS Locksmiths and told him that such behavior would negatively impact their reputation. His response "Do not call us anymore". You can bet that no one associated with our association will. read more
