    YELP INSIDER TIP FROM DOREEN (AKA AZN PERSUASION): Fast and friendly service in a strip mall with a 7-11, photo store, and some eateries. ***** Over the years, I've only had to come here once or twice to get keys copied. It's $2 a key for a house key. The business is SMALL. It is the size of a closet or handicap bathroom. It's tucked into the corner so it might be hard to miss. Free parking in the strip mall. Usually there is no wait. They also sell key accessories and different types of decorated keys.

    Lock Etc is on the southeast corner of Motor Ave & Venice Blvd, next to 7-11.

    I was referred to LOCK Etc by another local locksmith who did not offer automotive key-fob services. I called, spoke with "Hugo" and he quoted me $40 for a new key-fob (including programing). I made the 20 minute drive, was done in less than 10 minutes with a programmed key-fob for $40. Lock Etc is on the southeast corner of Motor Avenue & Venice Boulevard - in the little complex with 7-11. *"Hugo" said he would update the YELP page with the correct phone number. You can call "Hugo" at (310) 600-7413. Great job, "Hugo," thank you!

    Diego has been servicing my entire building for over a decade - as the president of my HOA I trust our security issues to him alone! I usually call him throughout the year so I don't see him in person. But when I needed to change my own door locks, I was happy to spend some face time with him : ). He initially told me that he would be here in a few hours, but then called me back and said he had a change of plans and was on his way. Yay!! Ever charming, he got my job done and took the time to have some warm chitchat and then he was gone in about a half hour. One of my neighbors happened to mention that the front gate was difficult to open with her key - that she needed to jiggle it a bunch before it would open - so he adjusted that too! Not only is Diego a reliable and reasonably priced locksmith, he also is a pleasure to talk to. Call him and give him a try, and you'll see what I'm talking about!

    Hello kitty key!

    Customer service is excellent and the service is really fast. I just spent 5 minutes there and got 3 keys, as awesome as this is.

    Came to my apartment when I locked my keys inside, made a copy in the driveway and the whole process was done in 30 minutes. Life saver!

    It was easy to set up an appointment to have exterior locks on my new house re-keyed. The locksmith…read morearrived about 30 minutes late (blame the LA traffic?). He seemed to understand the locks that were installed (ll part of new construction) and got to work dismantling everything. It then took him quite a while to re-key and put back two of the standard locks. The third lock (which is a digital smart lock) seemed to baffle him. He consulted with his office first, then pulled up an instruction manual on his phone to figure out how the lock worked. Eventually he got the lock re-keyed and everything worked fine afterwards. The service was not inexpensive. First there is a $45 service call fee which is credited towards the cost of the job if you choose to hire them. Second, the total cost for the three locks was $547, which seemed steep to me but then I've not used locksmith services in a while so maybe that is the going rate.

    Don't call this company unless you are desperate. I locked myself out of the house today, no phone,…read moreno wallet etc., husband out of town. Went to a neighbors to use the phone/computer. Found these guys on yelp, not many places open on Sunday. Should have known better when the person on the phone said the technician will discuss price based on the job. Gets here, says the price is $575. Another company I called said $175. I was able to negotiate a little (prior to unlocking my door which took less than 2 mins) but seriously don't let these guys take advantage of you in the future. It was my bad being upset in the situation and not being able to shop around for quotes, but seriously I wish I had used someone else.
