    She handed this to me and I gave her my car key. We sat in the car and waited only 10mins! Super fast and efficient!

    I wanted to get a copy of my car key and they quoted me very well! The service was fast and efficient. They used to be in my old neighborhood (Excelsior district), but due to COVID they moved. The value and quality of the key is great! They even recommended me to fix my primary button key at some point too, so I'll be sure to come back! Thank you!

    Front door full Mortis set. Mario repaired and keyed the door.

I explained to Gal that I would not be able to meet him in SF and if he could correspond with me over the phone to discuss what needed to be done while he was on site. I had originally wanted him to disable the buttons on the mortise lock because we thought my dad was activating it, locking the exterior latch, and preventing my parents' caregiver from entering each morning. Gal saved us a lot of money by explaining that all that was needed to be done was to turn the key one extra turn. Gal also adjusted the door because it was hard to close at times and smoothed out the caregiver's keys to make it easier to unlock the door. Gal did great work, but what really stood out to me is what a great quality human being Gal is. Not only was he understanding of the situation with me living so far away, but he showed the caregiver how to open the door if it's locked from inside, took a video of the process so I could share it with the caregiver in case she forgets, had us on speaker phone because the caregiver doesn't speak English so I could help translate. His patience and understanding is of the highest quality, saying that we will all be that age at some point. He was very respectful to my elderly dad and caregiver. Gal is highly recommended! I would use him again in a heartbeat!

I still had to call a Locksmith. (Dan Flynn, thanks for the referral). Their technician, Andy showed up early and and replaced the barrel and and made my 40 year old lock area stronger. I was good for another 2 years, and then last month, someone tried again. This Time, Metro's Technician, James, also showed up right on time, and he was able to do all the necessary work. This time, the burglars damaged my door frame, and James strengthened it with an extra Steel plate and replaced the damaged and useless bolt with a new stronger one. I don't think anyone will be tempted to try again after this repair! Thanks James and Metro. Your Brilliant Customer Service (Kevin) both on the phone and in the field, is the reason you are well-respected in the City. Hopefully this is the last time for that location!

Jimmy diagnosed the issue and fixed it without charging me. I was schooled about the quality and security of leaving an over-the-counter lockbox on my gate which was very helpful as I am no stranger to theft in my neighborhood. As a result, I ended up going back into the store and purchasing a very expensive USPS mailbox which they will install on my gate this week. I really appreciate the professionalism and support. Looking forward to a great partnership!

The guy answered and said his "agent" would call me but he's on his way. Eventually an East Bay number called at 9:50pm, and said he'd be there in 30 mins. I asked how much the price would be and he said anywhere from $85 to $140. After waiting almost an hour and a half, he finally showed up at 11:10pm and told me my apt lock was "commercial" and the "driving fee" from the East Bay is $150 on its own and this lock is actually $270 -- but he'd take $180 on Zelle immediately. He then unlocked my door in about 8 seconds. Being that it was almost midnight and I'm a woman alone, I had no choice. I'm not sure why a "driving fee" would be relevant to a business that advertises itself as LOCAL. I could have called the plenty of other SF-based locksmiths and 1) not had to wait much longer than promised 2) not been pressured into a payment that was well over the price that was quoted.

    I was charged $750 for a very simple residential lockout on a Kwikset deadbolt…read more The technician did not disclose any price before starting the service. He only told me the cost after the door was already opened, when I no longer had the option to refuse. This is classic price gouging and an example of deceptive business practice. A standard lockout in San Francisco is normally $120-$200, even for SmartKey models. Charging $750 without prior disclosure is unacceptable. I am requesting a partial refund and a written explanation of their pricing structure. Until then, I cannot recommend this company.
