I stopped by to have an apartment key duplicated. The staff was able to get it done for me immediately! Fast and friendly service!

I'll start by saying the good. They got the job done, and I have 2 working locks. I appreciate that. Now to the rest. When I called and described the problem, they said no problem. A technician would call to arrange the time. 5 min later, someone e said they could come asap. I needed the next day. So they said that was fine. What they neglected to tell me was it would be a subcontractor who would come. I asked when scheduling if they could give me a ballpark idea of cost. I was told it would depend on what lock I picked. When the tech came, I wasn't given a choice of lock. All he had were one style for 89$each. First said the front door would be lock switch at 65$. Back door 125 as it was considered a new install since he had to redo the door to fit the lock. Ok fine. He got to work then asked for a vacuum. I thought cool he's gonna clean up the mess. It took 1.5 hours to install a deadbolt on the back door and he didn't clean up! Vacuumed once in th3 beg and the. Left all his crap on the floor and strewn about. Screwd on the floor pieces of the door etc. Next we get to the front door. The easier of the 2. Now he looks at us and says oh this will be more. 69$ more. Um why? ALEX the tech says, because it will be more work than I thought. It took hom 39 min so why did we have to pay more for something that took less work than the other door? Again he left crap everywhere. Old rotor disc pads, screws, metal pieces from the door that were sharp! And the name on his invoice?emergency locksmith. I never said it was an emergency. 490$ later he is done. Way overcharged us. read more

I am a showing manager and I needed to make keys for one of our properties. Yelped and found these guys. It was fortunate that they were close so I stopped by. I received very good service and they charged less than Home Depot. Can't beat the price and the quick service! read more

Really nice and fast service. Definitely come here if you need keys cut. People inside are awesome and always super friendly. read more

I needed a new keyfob for a older Toyota Highlander. The dealer wanted over $300 and that didn't include programming! SJ Locksmith was half that price and got me out in less than an hour. Great service, great price. read more

Called them a few times. They have you go through an "advisor" that knows nothing. They have to speak to the "technician" but ends up as the advisor calling back to tell you what they were told. It's a joke really. They have no clue in what they're doing. I asked 2 days in a row. They are trying to charge me $500 to program a key fob for my 2021 Toyota Sienna. It's not even including the cost for a key fob. And to top it off. $70 for each emergency key. Not including parts. I had a quote from them in May. It was way less for everything including the dealer that I've mentioned but they insist that it is the price. The girl that I spoke to was very rude. She had no idea what she was doing. If you have any follow up questions about pricing. They have to speak to their "technician" and call you back. Bad management and lack of training. Customers want precise information to make a good decision. But I'm glad they're bad at it. Because Its less money going with my local dealer than them. I rarely ever write reviews but when a business crosses me the wrong way. I'm not so sorry to leave a honest review about them. My local Toyota dealer on the other hand is charging $230 for labor to program my blank key fob and the cost per emergency key is under $50 bucks. The cost for the whole service is still $230 with unlimited key cutting included with one single price. No brainer to go with the dealer instead of this RIP off pricing up above. Save your money and go to dealer. read more

My guys are rude, we'll the locksmiths that respond. Prices are high, don't get locked out, you're looking at $250. Should you get the work needed wrong, they'll tell you. read more

Called San Jose locksmith to help me unlock a vehicle. Over the phone I gave them information about the vehicle, my address on where they need to meet me, name, best phone number to reach me, and in less than one minute the conversation was over telling me that their mechanic will call me soon after to give me a quote and how long it'll take for him to be here. 4 minutes later their mechanic gives me a call and tells me he'll be here in 20 minutes. He shows up a couple minutes early and quoted me $100 to unlock the vehicle. Told him the price was fine and he got straight to work. Less than 3 minutes the car is finally free! Paid for his service and left. Receptionist who answered the phone was professional and sounded super friendly. Mechanic was also friendly and professional. read more

Excellent service. I walked inside and was helped immediately. Will make this as my permanent locksmith is San Jose.

They can give you duplicates of vehicle or home or business door keys...but the price seems a lot higher than several locksmiths I've used in Milpitas, or Sunnyvale, or Santa Clara etc. Double for truck keys...just similar pricing for one sided padlock mini keys. I'd pass unless this is the only place you can get to and have no time for alternatives. read more

These guys are great! They truly care about their business and go the extra mile to make sure the customers are satisfied. Their prices are really fair and I have no complaints. I called 10 mins before arriving and they helped me with my locks very efficiently. It's also good that they open on weekends! read more

San Jose Locksmith - My replacement key! - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - San Jose, California

spoke to Mary about getting a key I had cut for my truck mounted to a flip key fob I bought online for it. (turns out I could have just bought one from Mary they had a bunch in a glass case for practically every car!) My stump fingers couldn't get this tiny little metal pin into the hole to hold the new key in place and no tool I had could do the job. She knew what to do, and managed to get that pin in there despite slight damage to the pin- not sure if that was from my idiotic efforts or the tiny pin came that way..? we'll say it came that way. Anyways, I honestly can't believe she was able to do it but she had skill and the right tools and I had neither so here we are. On top of that she didn't charge me because of a minor scratch on the key chrome that happened. What? That's service peoples, service. will definitely be back here, I was so thrilled with service and the selection of products they had. And Mary kicked ass! read more

They came out and made a key...... but I was clear on the phone when I said it was an earlier Honda... he said 20 minutes.... came 45 minutes later..... then acts like he misunderstood the problem (though I was clear, I had the phob but not the key) ..... so what was quoted at 165.00 is now 240.00 ....... Now , we have gotten our original key back and it doesn't even work on our car..... wtf??? Puts you in a rock and shard place when your waiting in the hot sun read more

If you're looking for a locksmith in downtown San Jose, this is it! Super central in a small lot. Was in and out within 5 mins.

The ignition switch on my wife's pilot failed while I was out of town when she and our daughter were in SF. The turnaround timeframe for waiting for a tow back to San Jose wasn't appealing. Enter San Jose Locksmith to save the day. Haggai arrived promptly and quickly rebuilt the ignition and made another key. Pricing was fair and all of the service was excellent. Highly recommended!! read more

Read the reviews and someone said they were able to get a copy of a key that says do not duplicate lol, well they didn't so minus one start but the copies they were able to make for me worked and they were also good price.

I had broken sliding door latch. The person was very helpful isolating the problem. Very friendly service.

I had issue with my key fob after changing battery and I have been calling around dealerships without any positive answer. My neighbor suggested me to call auto locksmith and I found this place. Mary has been really helpful try to test the key fob and Mark was able to fix it instead of get a new replacement key fob. Save me a lot of money. They are so great and I highly recommend this place if you ever have car key/fob issue. read more

This company was responsive, personable & professional. Nicholas offered to fix our problematic front door lock set but replacing it was the better option. He also offered to pickup a new set for me or I could pick up one & he would return same day to install. I chose the latter & he returned at the agreed upon time to install our new door set. Pleased with the service we received & our new working door knob & lock! Highly recommend San Jose Locksmith!! read more

What a waste of my time and gas. To drive all the way here and find it to be closed! doing business hours wen the website clearly mentioned that thy are opened for walkin's. Don't waste people's time. read more

Brought in my smart key with the emergency key. The smart key worked but the emergency key was too thick. Took me a whole week to get in contact of the technician who did it. They then told me over the phone they would fix it so we made another appointment (which was waiting for another whole week), only for them to tell me (2 hours before the appointment) that since it was a key that I brought in, they will not fix it. Yeah don't waste your time with this place. Edit: the manager Jacob got back to me and apologized. They scheduled me the day of and the technician showed me the key actually works, you just have to play with it a little and eventually the key wears itself down to the point where it slides in smoother every time. These guys are great, at first I just wanted someone to help me out and it felt like I was being brushed off but Jacob and his team really do care to make sure their customers are satisfied. You can go here knowing that at least these guys will go the extra mile and if not you'll know that they at least tried their best. Jacob offered me a refund for the emergency key but honestly that's not needed, these guys are already offering their services cheap. read more

Crooks they wanted to charge me 240 dollars for a cylinder that i bought at aa lock for 65 dollars steer a wide path from these jokers

Mary helped me out with programming my key. She was really helpful and nice. Quick installation and no problems!!

We called asking for a quote. Their service is prompt but their prices are rediculous. We needed an ignition switch, that was damaged by a car theif changed. We were charged $576 for just the tumblers in the ignition switch and the tech changed the part out in just 15 or 20 mins. read more

Hands down best service from any company. We called, Derek came to our house in about 30 minutes and had our old safe opened in about 10 minutes. It was so quick and easy and he was really nice about getting it out of my car since I couldn't lift it. AND he even took it away for us! We were going to have to throw it out ourselves but he offered to do it for us. This was the easiest and fastest service I have ever seen and it was so worth it. If you need a safe or lock opened in under an hour call Derek! read more
