The locksmith helped us fix a jammed up mortise lock which required some sanding out part of the door. He was very thorough and we re-keyed another lock and made some key copies all with equipment in the truck, for a very reasonable price. Highly recommend! read more

I lost my mailbox keys and my landlord quoted me $300 to call a locksmith. I made my own calls and everyone's prices were either too high or they were unable to do mailboxes. Alex had the best price in the area, I paid about $130 to change my mailbox lock. He responded quickly, came exactly when he said he would and fixed it in 10 minutes. Works and looks as good as new, I highly recommend! read more

Nova Locksmith - My mailbox that needed a new lock, looks good as new! - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - San Francisco, California

After a really dumb move on my part, locked my keys in my car and my spare is 300 miles away. I tried some ideas but basically gave up and looked up for a locksmith. Nova responded within 15 minutes of me using the Yelp feature, text me a price (which was the best among 4 others in the area) and showed up within an hour of my request going out! Opened my car up within minutes (maybe even less, it was that fast!) and problem solved! Really happy with the service Alex provided, though I hope to not have to need him again assuming I don't get locked out! If I need lock work in the future, I know exactly who to call now! read more

Amazing work! Alex helped us install and select new locks and handles for many doors in our house. Really honest advice and pointed us in the right direction about quality, beautiful products! Thanks, Alex! read more

5 - Fast, responsive, reliable, and up-front about costs. Alex at Nova Locksmith responded to my project request on Yelp in under 30 seconds. Got on a call where he asked some questions about my lock and needs. He used that info to diagnose how to rekey my lock and was very upfront about costs -- no surprises here. I was also assured that he'd arrive within the timeframe agreed -- worst thing is waiting forever and then getting a cancellation 2 hours after the appointment time. That didn't happen, Alex was super communicative, responsive, and timely. Finally, he knows his stuff. When he arrived, my building said the postman needed to be here to rekey my condo mailbox. I thought I was going to have to coordinate another appointment with the postman, but Alex assured my building that he could do it, and 15 min later, I gained access to my overflowing mail box with 3 new keys and 2 weeks to fill out and mail back my 2024 ballot Hopefully I'll be more responsible with my keys moving forward, but if I need locksmith services again, I'll go directly to Alex at Nova Locksmith. read more

Nova Locksmith - Me and the wife - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - San Francisco, California

I'm usually a foodie and would use Yelp more for food recs than for home maintenance needs. For my FIRST EVER Yelp review I want to give a big shoutout to Nova Locksmith!!! Alex was very friendly and communicative in scheduling a time to come out to fix the lock on our door. He gave us a timeframe for the amount of time he'll need to get the door fixed. Alex was punctual and very efficient in identifying the issue and fixing it (in under 30 min too ). He also gave us the option on whether we wanted to change out the entire locks or keep our current keys. He's very knowledgeable. Thank you so much for making our new home safe and our door usable. Hopefully our door will be good for a while now but if we were to be in need of a locksmith again, I'd reach out again and highly recommend Alex. read more

I'd been struggling with finding a way to get a reliable keypad for my condo's unit door. The existing mortise lock was in a non-standard size/style that I found impossible to get a replacement for. I reached out to Alex, who let me know what my options were and helped to educate me on what he thought would work best. There was no pressure and he super friendly and patient in answering all my questions. I ended up buying a new lock on Amazon that Alex recommended. When it came in, Alex was able to show up the next day and get it installed quickly with no hassle. Great communication, super professional, great quality service at a good value. I've used Nova Locksmith on multiple occasions now and highly recommend them to anyone else looking for a locksmith. read more

These reviews are bogus. Don't trust the high rating. Totally unprofessional. Discourteous, disrespectful, and will price gouge you. We were quoted $89 for service call plus $80-120 depending on the job and 20 minute wait time. The locksmith who was sent to come arrived one hour late and essentially told me that he fit in another job that was nearby before coming to us. I called the company before the locksmith got to us for an update and the dispatcher was not only unapologetic he was extremely rude, unprofessional and unsympathetic. Go elsewhere. Your money is better served with Brian at Rhinoceros Locksmith or at Mike's Locksmith and General services. read more

Alex was amazing! I needed to rekey and to reprogram a smart lock for my new place. I called Nova Locksmith on Sunday, Alex picked up my call and immediately he put me on schedule for next day. Alex showed up right on time. He is so knowledgable and skillful with locks. Watching him working like watching a magician. BTW, the conversation with him was so pleasant and comfortable. Oh, I almost forgot to mention, his price is extremely competitive compared with the cost I rekeyed last time. I will definitely call Alex for all my future rekey needs, or anything related to locks read more

Ive sat outside of my house and went through 3 locksmiths trying to open my front door over the course of a few hours. Nova opened in in under a minute. When I've called a few locksmiths over the years and they might not even have the right tools on them half the time, it's good to have someone who is responsive and can get the job done saved in your phone. read more

Alex is definitely the guy to go to for all your locks. He's reliable and great with communication. He re-keyed our new door locks to match our existing keys/doors. Very personable and he knows his stuff. Pricing is competitive. Definitely give him a call! read more

Alex was extremely knowledgeable in his craft, honest, professional and had great communication from the get-go. He called to say he would be coming sometime during the window we agreed on and then texted when he was on his way and then 3 minutes away. We needed to replace an old lock with a keypad lock on our gate and also re-key the front door. Unfortunately, the door's lock system was so old that re-keying would potentially not work on top of the manufacturer no longer being in business. Alex took the time to explain the situation, the pros and cons of the various solutions and was extremely patient with my questions. He worked quickly and confidently and was good to chat with as well. Highly recommend and will use his services again. read more

We needed a lock rekeyed and Alex accommodated my ask for keys with a larger base because I'd been struggling to turn the standard ones in the lock.

Alex is awesome and super helpful. highly recommend using this services. he was super response and quick.

If you need a locksmith, look no further! Alex @ Nova Locksmith is the person you're looking for! What a lot of people don't know, is that if you call any of the first 10 numbers on Google for locksmiths, you're calling a 3rd party call center that will dispatch a locksmith by your number along to a bunch of companies and then for an hour straight a bunch of different locksmiths will call you non stop! They'll also lie about their ETA and keep you waiting. I didn't know this was an issue in SF, but after some research I realized I wasn't alone. So once I found Nova on yelp, I requested a quote online and Alex called me back quickly and not only showed up when he said he would, but also gave a direct number so I don't have to call a dispatcher to get through to him. My neighbor was locked out, and asked me to help her get back in. Happy to report, Alex showed up, helped her get in, and charged a very reasonable amount. read more

Alex was super responsive and helpful over the phone. Very transparent on pricing. Highly recommend
