We were locked out very late at night on a weekday and Semko was quick to respond and finished the job very quickly. Very professional and friendly. Highly recommended for all your locksmith needs. read more

I highly recommend Semko for all your locksmith needs. I have an old 1930 classic pickup that has a 1980-something ignition switch and a 1980-something locking gas cap. I had only one set of keys for both the switch and gas cap. Unfortunately I recently lost my key set. I called several mobile locksmith's in Orange County to have replacement keys made. No one was willing to work on anything older than 2004 and especially not on a 1930 Model A. Finally someone recommended Semko saying he works on classic cars. I called him yesterday and he responded to my home today. It took him over an hour to figure out the locks and generate replacement keys. Semko had to use real locksmithing skills to get the job done. He was also very friendly and took the time to explain how the spring loaded gas cap locks. If you ever need a locksmith, especially for a classic car, Semko is your man. read more

I genuinely can't speak highly enough about my experience w/ Semko. After getting pulled in by the countless scam locksmiths on here that buy their reviews and are all linked to the same call center who refuse to give you a quote upfront, Semko was the guy who was genuine, upfront, communicated throughout the process, and got the job done perfectly. He even let my toddler set up safety cones around him while he worked. There is no other locksmith to even consider. Please do not get scammed by the others and just go with a real solid guy like Semko. read more

I spoke directly with the owner of the company. He understood my needs immediately, and made time in his schedule for same day service. Semko, the owner, was courteous and polite. He texted me when he was on his way. Upon arrival, he offered a better solution to my keys issue, and the same price quoted. He took his time in repairing and replacing parts of 3 locks on file cabinets. I highly recommend Lockyard and Semko, for honest faily priced work. Charise read more

Semko did an amazing job. He was able to open a very old fire vault, bout also to provide keys. He refused to quit because of the age and construction of the vault were much better than current fire safes, and he didn't want to damage the vault. Given what he had to deal with, the cost was a bargain. Old school quality and service. Bruce Herrington read more

I called Semko yesterday to tighten a gate lock . I told him the lock was wobbling and I was worried it may come off someday . Semko came today . The gate lock covers is a little different from other locks. It was hard for his hand and tool to reach . But Semko figured out quickly by simply drilling a hole and work from a small hole instead of removing cover for repairs and reinstalling back after finish , which would have been more time consuming and more laboring. He charged me reasonable amounts for the work he has done . I am very satisfied for his work . I will use him again and will highly recommend him to anyone . read more

What a great experience. I was locked out of my home. I like to look for reviews on yelp to see experiences that other people had with this company. I called after 5:00 pm and thank goodness the owner answered the phone. Very kind and said he would come right out. We didn't have to wait to long and he was there. He repaired both doors with the lock issues. He was very kind and knowledgeable. I would definitely use him again and I'm definitely telling everyone I know about him. So if you want a reliable, honest and kind locksmith he's the guy you should call. Thank you for your great service. read more

I contacted Semko because of all the wonderful reviews. My car door key would not open the door and just spun around. I wasn't sure if Semko worked on this type of lock repair. Well, on 12/24 Semko came out and knew exactly what to do. He was professional, courteous, extremely knowledgeable and fixed my lock quickly and efficiently. I also found out he does homes, businesses, keys & locks throughout OC. His price was very fair. If you need this type of service, do not hesitate to contact Semko. You can thank me later. read more

Terrific to work with Semko on a keyless entry/exit gate lock that came with my house years ago and has never worked correctly. Semko took a very generous amount of time to diagnose my gate latch/lock problem and work diligently to solve the same. I am so happy to my gate finally works the best that it can and I can let people in and out of my home with a internal latch release system that he helped repair. This project took some time and Semko's communication throughout was flawless. He helped track down the latch that I needed to make this whole system work and always kept me up to date with his efforts. I appreciated his patience and kindness and would highly recommend his help if ever needed. read more

I just had my door handle replaced and fixed by Semko. I found the owner extremely professional, efficient and competent.

A very great experience with a quality locksmith service. I would highly recommend this company and I will definitely call on Semko should I have a need for locksmith services in the future. read more

I requested a duplicate key for my desk cabinet, which no other place was able to do. I was worried I wouldn't be able to find someone who could copy my key for me, but Semko said he would try and even offered to do it FREE OF CHARGE. He was able to copy it in 5 minutes on the same day, and the key WORKED! I have never met someone who was as generous with his time and knowledge and who was able to help me on such short notice for a task that many other companies said they could not do. I definitely recommend calling Semko for duplicating keys that others have said might be difficult because I genuinely think he would be able to help, even more so than Home Depot and Lowe's. read more

I had 2 recommendations for locksmith service and I chose Semko, because when I called him he was easy to communicate with, he was very patient and explained everything to the detail, I could tell he is very knowledgeable, the price was reasonable and he was honest... So he was able to remove the broken part of my key from the car lock trunk (without actually getting to the trunk first as it was not also possible to open it from inside, also not possible to get there through the car seats etc), he then also fixed the other issue I had as we were still not able to unlock the trunk after removing that broken part of the key...etc. I was very pleased with the service. Thank you very much for your help today! read more
