The service of copying keys I needed for my house. It would be nice for a discount. The quality is good but I was homeless and I could use this for food. There is a value if you spend 5 keys. I was so disappointed in this the Service lady Sonia was helping me I was disappointed of being a customer I hope they can improve . I do not recommend this place if you don't care of customer service it's for you.Kindness forward one person at a time. read more

I needed a copy made so I went to home depot. The copy they made didn't work and i ended up going back 3 times. I ended up getting a refund and googling key places to end up finding Kokos. I walked in and was greeted with a smile. The lady working was very nice and knew what she was doing. She was very professional, fixed the problem immediately and took zelle payment because I didn't have cash (very cool) If your key is a little different those machines at home depot or other stores don't work. Go to an actual lock & key store and have a professional save you time and money. I learned that the hard way read more

I had emergency key troubles the other day and Gary and his father immediately went above and beyond to help me fix it, even went as far as driving to go pick up a new key for me. I am so pleased with the care, compassion, and quality service they provided. They made sure my car was safe and reliable before I exited the building. I cannot recommend them enough!!! read more

A gem and amazing find, this locksmith offers SoCal's rarest key blanks from cars to homes. I drive a 45+ year old vintage Mercedes Benz as a daily driver. Finding a key blank for it is incredibly difficult. At Kokos, they have all the resources such as old catalogs to reference and ensure the key was from era and manufacturer. If you are looking to have keys duplicated, look no further! read more

I called Kokos on tuesday because my amsec safe was giving me issues with the kabas lock on it. Delightful lady named Sona picked up the phone, coordinated with their safe guy and had him scheduled a couple days later. Their guy showed up on time. Ran through the issue on hand. Gave us options and fixed it in a few hours. Very professional and prompt. All during this pandemic. When other companies didn't even want anything to do with this type of safe. Sona and team didn't back away. They got it done and deserve all the business they can handle. I definitely will keep them in my contacts for future business and recommendations. read more

Didn't want to risk going into Home Depot and wait for 20 minutes before i can walk outta there with a copy of a key. so i looked this place up. its pretty cool, lots of designer keys too. its a bit pricier than Home Depot i think, cuz i paid nearly $5 for 2 copies...and they weren;t even designer keys. but, i was in and outta there i less than 5 minutes. read more

Fast and easy, copied my house key for a reasonable price. you can choose a plain key or buy a fancy vanity key! They have a broad selection of options. read more

I needed a key copied over the weekend, and as we were on our way to Virgil's to get it done we saw Koko's. We figured that it specialized in keys, so why not try it first? I got out of the car and my husband said he'd look for parking. I entered the shop, showed the owner the key, and in less than a minute it was copied. I quickly paid the $3 or so, and by the time I was out of the shop my husband had just circled the block once. I tested the key today, and it works better than the old one. I'll definitely return to Koko's!!! read more

Great customer service. The woman that helped me made a copy of my keys for me and kept helping me till it worked on my car. Wish they were a lot cheaper. read more

Kokos Lock & Key - Done - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Glendale, California

I haven't had too many experiences at lock and key businesses but I needed a few key copies and searched for somewhere next to my work and they came up. I got there and was greeted and given full attention. A few minutes later I was out of there with a bunch of copies. The process was a breeze and took only a few minutes. Thank you for the customer service that you can't get anywhere else these days. read more

THESE FOLKS ARE GREAT--PLEASE USE THEM!!! I went to Koko's after calling another locksmith the day before because I was locked out of my house and my key wouldn't work-- the guy drilled my lock and got me in but couldn't fix the lock or the deadbolt and ruined them--I felt I got shortchanged-- Heard about Koko's and spoke to Sonia who explained my situation-- I was ready to spend a lot of money on a brand new front design etc but she told me she'd have Koko come by first before I committed-- Koko was able to repair both my locks and install a new deadbolt after the first guy ruined it. They saved me a ton of money-- I'm recommending them because they didn't just go for the big sale but offered an honest appraisal of my situation-- highly recommend. read more

I have done business with Koko's for over 12 years and in all this time he has always been helpful & honest. He makes recommendations which save you money. He re-keyed my home instead of trying to sell me new locks. He explained how the older locks and hinges at my home where very expensive and changing them would not benefit me. I give my highest recommendation for Koko's excellent work ethic. Thank you read more

Smells like cigarettes inside and I was told they couldn't make a copy of my mail key because the copy has a 50% chance of not even working....isn't the whole thing that you guys copy keys?? read more

This is the best place to go to if you need to have a key made. The staff will give you the best in customer service, and courtesy. I came in today to have a key made, and the key was made in no time. I have used the services of Koko's Lock & Key in the past, and I have never been disappointed. I was glad to see how fast the service still is. It is good to know this is a business that really cares about giving superior customer service and with a smile besides! You can't go wrong using Koko's Lock & Key, they will give you fast, friendly, and professional service. read more

Koko's in THE place to go if you need a CLASSIC CAR KEY COPIED! I had given up hope that I would ever find the right blank to make a copy of the key to my 1967 Camaro. They have all the old books showing the key codes to classic cars AND had the blank I needed. Cut to perfection and works like butter. Thank you!!! read more

I went in to purchase a garage clicker, something I could have easily could have/should have done online. On my first attempt, I missed the 5PM close time by five minutes. The next day I went in only to be told they only accept CASH or Check, two antiquated forms of payment. I needed the clicker so I agreed to leave the store and walk 1/2 a block to the nearest ATM. The purpose of this post is to respectfully remind the owner of this business that this is exactly why online commerce is shutting down the local guy. You took such pride in shutting me down and telling me " this is how we've done it for 28 years " . Your business hours are M-F 10 -5pm. Most of us look to after work hours and weekends to run these types of errands. Secondly, I hate to say it but CASH and checks are antiquated. By having me leave your store to get cash, it feels like you are really making me work hard for something I can purchase from the comfort of my home, using my credit card and have delivered to my front door the next day... Just some overall feedback. :) read more

When I need copies of keys, I come here and get it done quickly. You're in and out in a couple of minutes. You can get a keychain, copies, or lock services with friendly service. It's also at a good location off the freeway on Glendale Ave. Luckily, I happened to stumble on it because I was about to be locked out of my place. read more

I went in there a couple of days ago to get a key ...what a mistake ! the owner there is a complete jerk . his keys are way overpriced and he has a great animosity towards hardware stores and went on this tirade about them and how they cut into his business if it were up to him only locksmiths should cut keys. well maybe if you lowered your prices to compete .you might get more business for a key blank that cost pennies read more

So I called this place to see if they make copies of my car key, the lady said she was able to so I chose to make my way there. I understand that this shop closes @ 6pm so I let the lady know that I was on my way there. I got there @ 5:55, I see that they closed EARLY for some reason. I see this old lady walk right by me, & if I can match a face with the voice I heard over the phone, I'm pretty sure that was her bc she gave me this look like, 'tough luck'. Whatever, maybe a dumb assumption but if u hear u might get some business @ a key copy place, u should honor ur business hours. It doesn't take more than 5 minutes to copy a key. read more

These are very angry people. First clue was watching the way they treated the guy in front of me when they told him in a very rude way look if you don't like our prices go to Virgil's. Then when I tried to tell them the situation with my deadbolt they kept telling me that I was wrong which eventually turned into a heated conversation to the point where they kicked me out and the man there literally almost wanted to have a fistfight with me. Amazing. I will never go back to this place. It's a wonder that they are still in business with the way they treated me. By the way, I fixed the bolt myself proving I was correct after they repeatedly tried to tell me how wrong I was. Not only are they rude, they're arrogant and not very smart. Needless to say I would not recommend this establishment! read more

I think that was the fastest key copy ever made. World record. I've only made keys here so I don't know how great this place is as a whole, but hot damn they can make a key quick, at a super cheap price too. The service was much more efficient than had I gone into a Home Depot or a Lowes near by. read more

I would give a Zero star if I could. The lady quoted me $50 for a Home key copy that I got for $5 at Anawalt's in NoHo. I am never going back. Since they only take cash, I think she quotes high, pockets some money and puts minimum down on the books. "Class Act" Only go there if the price seems right, otherwise, you are being played. read more

This establishment has terrible customer service. I lived at Monterey Islands in Glendale and went by there to have some keys cut. It was near closing and the older gentleman was very rude. I will be letting the other residents know how I was treated.Its a shame you cant get good service these days. Shame on Kokos lock and key read more

HORRIBLE customer service from OWNER Sona and very expensive for no reason. We called them last Wednesday for them to come and change three locks at the house. They only change the inside part and gave us two copies for each. The gentleman seemed in a rush and I had a lot of questions, but he decided to change only these three and charged me over $300(!!) and then left. When I called back a few days later explaining that we had forgotten to change the garage door lock, which I had originally asked him to, I asked him to waive the $75 service fee and just charge for the one lock and key. Instead of accommodating us, since we just spent over $300 a few days prior and it was a mutual mistake, she said there's no way they would waive the service fee. This is considered horrible customer service, and I will never work with them ever again. Stay away! read more

Don't bother going here. The prices for colorful keys are outrageous; and the store associate claimed there was no way to make copies of the two small "made in China" keys I had. Really? I just had them duplicated at Industrial Lock and Security in El Segundo - wish I'd waited to return there - and will need to go back there now, after all. Another good locksmith is California Lock and Safe in Highland Park. However, the keys were cut right and worked. If you want limited and costly selection, served up with a defensive attitude, by all means go to to Koko's. :/ read more

I am thrilled to have found Koko's Lock & Key. I needed to fix a vintage lock from the 1930s. The owner was very knowledgeable about the lock. I had brought in a few parts of the lock and she explained that I had not brought all the parts she needed and then she explained what parts were missing. I ended up bringing the whole box to her and she found the part she needed and fixed the lock! And then she only charged me $24 for the fix! She offered to put a new lock in, but I loved the idea of her fixing the original! We had a few laughs too. Good times! read more

I really like this place, they know their stuff. They have every key imaginable and also have taught me a few things, like, the reason that fake Schlage key won't work, how I can't use a Quikset blank for some original keys etc. When you have to jiggle the heck out of your key to get in your house, you don't need WD40, you need the proper blank! They take cash or check so that's fine. They have always been very nice to me, including today when I got there before the 9:00 opening time and someone was already there to accept business. Thanks Kokos! read more

Needed lock changed on my house and the owner couldn't have been any more help. Really friendly service and reasonable prices. Would highly recommend! read more

They carry keys that home depot and other stores don't. it took less than 10 seconds to duplicate a key. Its the ultimate key & lock store. I don't really get why people say this place is expensive, it costs just 4$ read more

I had the worst key youde probably ever see for my work truck. It was damn near a prison shank. Came in to kokos, worried I would be screwed. The lady there was very nice, cracking up on the condition of my key. Glad to get a smile on someone Monday morning. She didnt think it would work so she suggested only making one. Good price too. She cut me a perfect key that fits just right. Couldn't be more satisfied. Thank you mama. Ill be back for another. read more

Great service, super fast. Thank you! Maybe the keys are a little more expensive than Home Depot or somewhere like that but wouldn't you rather give your money to a specialist who is trying to make it independently? read more

Great rapid fast service. They also laser cut car keys for really cheap where dealerships charge 3 times the price. Not sure about the other reviews but I was blown away by the prices, service, and product availability by them. read more
