    Parking lot
    Isa L.

    Very friendly. Was able to get a battery replacement for my car key. Everything was done within 5 minutes. Located in the SUN PLAZA parking lot. I would come back again.

    Came here just to waste my time. This lady right here is not helpful at all bad customer service she took a phone call and she started placing an order for supplies right in front of me while I was waiting for her to tell me she couldn't make a copy of my key, then after all she did make a copy that did not work poor customer service. The only reason I came here is because I saw the yelp reviews but it's false.

    Lots of key designs for around $2/3 dollars.

    Quick fast service. Free parking. His shop is located in the middle of the parking lot. I came here for the DO NOT DUPLICATE keys that most places do not make and it works. He charged me $3 for it! Super cheap. Just a note about DO NOT DUPLICATE keys... I don't think you are supposed to ask him about it on the phone but if you go in person (since it's a frowned upon the do not duplicate keys) and ask him, he will make it! Lots of nice designs he also does other services like remote control for garages and car keys. He's also a 24 hours locksmith!

    He was really an expert!! I got his number from my aunt. I asked for three door(& gate) locks to be changed. He gladly visited me early in the morning before I went to work and it took less than 20 minutes to do all of them! Wow! The extra key (he copied inside his van at my parking lot^^) also fits very well. I definitely recommend him!

    Overall, a great experience! Jin was super helpful, efficient, and got the job done quickly once on…read moresite. The work itself was excellent. A couple of small notes for future customers: the final price was slightly higher than the original project quote once the full scope (two locks) was reconfirmed (but this was conveyed pre-arrival, so no surprises upon arrival), and arrival was about 40 minutes past the scheduled time (but I get it, LA traffic!). He also recommended cutting the locks since he couldn't make replacement keys, which means I will have to purchase some new bike locks again soon. Regardless, grateful for Jin to provide evening and weekend services! Also, I must say the price Jin charged was still more affordable than other locksmith businesses I contacted, so overall, this was a better value in the end! Plus, Jin was quick to respond via Yelp. Would recommend Jin for anyone needing quick, effective locksmith work, esp. for bike locks. Five stars for rescuing the bikes and communication!

    UPDATE: Two weeks after my key was fixed, the remote on my…read morecar was no longer working . I had to unlock/lock my doors manually. I called Mr jin to see if he can look at my key again. As a young woman, i felt that having a functioning key remote made me feel safer . Mr Jin came by and said that the battery was dead which i thought was very weird since he just made a brand new key 2 weeks ago?? Did he use an old battery? Or was there another underlying issue? I questioned him about this but he just kept saying it needs a new battery . He wouldn't show me what was wrong with the key, just kept going to his van to look at it and INSISTED it was the battery. It Still didnt add up to me ... Anyways he opened the key, replaced the battery and charged me $40 for his time and gas to come out to me. I thought that was CRAZY since the key was malfunctioning due to his own fault and he just replaced the battery?!!? I just paid him and then went on my way. At that moment, i knew that he lost my business moving forward. 3 weeks later my remote stops working AGAIN! I go to another locksmith and they opened up my key, showed me my remote and said that when mr. jin opened the key remote. He broke a small piece, the small piece missing promotes the battery to drain fast and/or is not allowing the battery to power the remote. They replaced the battery for me in the meantime and then recommended i get a whole new remote if the problem continues . TLDR: So I PAID THIS MAN OVER $250 FOR A BRAND NEW KEY THAT LASTED ME TWO WEEKS. HE DID NOT EVEN TAKE THE TIME TO INVESTIGATE WHY AND OVERCHARGED ME FOR A HALF-ASS JOB. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS BUSINESS. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. NOW I NEED A WHOLE NEW KEY PROGRAMMED BECAUSE HE BROKE MY KEY & DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HES DOING
