I want to mention what a great job Daryl Dana at Tri Valley Locksmith did for me this evening and that I'd recommend him again to anyone. I came home from work today to find that the front door deadbolt was not working--meaning the front door was unlocked all day. It was a little unnerving and facing the prospect of it being unlocked all night, I dialed Daryl at 7:07pm based on a recommendation from someone else. He was at my house by 7:30pm (and it might have been sooner but I was busy with my kids). Before he even got here he had already asked me questions about the lock and had an idea of what the problem was. Not only did he fix the front door in no time flat, he re-keyed our office door, provided advice for a door that continually sticks and made two extra sets of keys. He was in/out of here in less than an hour and considering it was after hours, I felt I paid an extremely reasonable rate for all that he did. I have another door I'm contemplating re-keying and will definitely call on Daryl for that and in the future for any other locksmith needs. read more

Daryl showed up same day and was able to knock out our lock re-keying in about an hour for a very reasonable price. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tri-Valley Locksmiths to anyone in need of locksmith services. read more

I was pet and house sitting for my sister when the lock on their front door failed. (I left to walk the dog and luckily had my phone with me!) I called two other locksmiths in the area and both were unavailable. One business didn't even pick up the call. After all it was 5 pm on a warm beautiful Friday evening! Daryl not only answered his phone but walked me through the steps to try and finagle the lock open. I hung up cause I needed both hands and thanked him for the tip. After numerous attempts and another 90 minutes (in which my nephew arrived home from work) I finally gave up and called Daryl back. He warned me it would take about 30 minutes to get to my location. He made it here in 20 minutes and within 2 minutes I walked through the door. Yay Daryl! Excellent service, friendly disposition and willing to go above and beyond for a woman in distress! Thank you Daryl Dana of Tri Valley Locksmith! read more

Great, prompt and solid service. We were dealing with a front door lock issue for about a year, unable to replace the handle/lock mechanism, and they came out and fixed it in less than an hour. Very knowledgeable. read more

This gentleman is amazing! I first used his services about 10 years ago when I had him create a key for a new-to-me car I had just purchased. Today, I had him rekey our new home. TVL worked with my schedule, and rekeyed my entire house in less than an hour (5-6 locks). He was detailed. His explanations were clear. He made excellent suggestions of what to keep and what to replace (clearly he was looking to save me money). He was clean. I will certainly be calling him again for all my key/FOB needs! read more

Daryl is the best. Out of the five different locksmiths I reached out to he is the only one that could copy my motorcycle key. And he did that with a tremendous attitude and at an extremely reasonable price. I am so glad he lives close to me. read more

Darryl was very helpful when I needed some keys made on a Saturday morning. He made them out in front of his house. The keys were special so there was a chance they might not work when I went to use them. I called to let him know they didn't work thinking he would give me a refund. Even better than that, he met me at my business location and tweaked the keys so they worked. He did not charge me extra for having to come fix the keys. Now that is customer service! read more

WOW - What can I can I say?!! These folks are wonderful. They are very nice, courteous, fast and extremely customer focused. On a recent trip. my daughter had her purse stolen with our address and keys. We called Daryl and he was very sympathetic and wanted to help. He was so nice and generous! He did three locks and new keys in about 20 minutes. And with a terrific attitude and professionalism. Also fixed something wrong with the latch (no charge). I wont say the exact price - but it was very reasonable and competitive. Give them a call - you will be happy. read more

Daryl came on time and quickly rekeyed all the locks, and the price seemed reasonable.

Daryl is the locksmith to go to! He came out on a Sunday afternoon to tackle two notoriously hard to unlock AND create duplicate keys for a '06 SV and '06 Ninja. A few other locksmiths I called even outright refused to work with motorcycles. Not only that, he managed to do so with only 1 key blank for each bike since I had somewhat rare key models! ( 2006 Suzuki and Kawasaki bikes). Very skilled and friendly no-bull locksmith, but it gets even better! I personally am paranoid about carrying cash and he currently doesn't accept cards (he is getting one soon), but he was nice enough to drive me to the closest ATM about 2 miles away! For the rush job in the time frame and skill, he is easily worth the price. Note: I had found him previously before via Yelp and had helped me with a gas cap for said bike with missing keys. What he charged me then was a great deal as well. If you ever do motorcycle repair, and need someone to remove the gas cap off a spare tank, he's excellent for that as well! read more

Super awesome! Came in under 30minutes and were friendly! Hopefully won't need to call then again, but when you lock yourself out they are the ones to call! read more

What a great service!! After needing our home Re-keyed we were given an appointment the same day. Prompt service. Knowledgeable. Professional. Friendly. read more

I need a new mailbox key and I emailed Tri Valley and Daryl responded very promptly with a very reasonable rate. He called 15 minutes before he arrived and he arrived and did the work promptly and even gave me an extra key! Great service, would definitely recommend. A+++. read more

This will be the second time Daryl came over to replace a lock. Always on time, friendly and fair pricing. He knows his stuff and we highly recommend him. read more

Excellent service, fast response and he clearly knows what he is doing, very reasonable price as well. Highly recommended.

Swift and Reliable service. A little expensive though!! Highly recommend read more

I needed car key duplicates quickly. I called Daryl. He asked me to call back in an hour while he checked if he had what he needed. I got a text in 10 minutes from him asking me to stop by whenever I could. 30 minutes later, I had two working remotes. Painless as could be. Highly recommended. Thanks Daryl. read more

I had to get locks rekeyed, replaced, and reversed on about 5 doors. It wasn't an emergency, but he had time and so Darryl came out within the hour. He worked quickly and efficiently and was even able to rekey/make new keys based on a picture of our existing key. He also gave me some advice on whether I should put a keyed lock a french door He was very nice, wore a mask, and overall did a great job. The pricing was also very reasonable. I highly recommend him! read more

Very friendly, made it at the time he said he would be here. Average price. Had to remove public storage cylinder lock.

I got locked out of my car yesterday and gave these guys a call. I had somewhere to be and these guys come out 15 minutes after I called them which was great. The price is a little high but it's one of those things that you can't really comprised on if you can't wait and have somewhere to be. The guy came off as a little rude as he seemed to be screaming then he said he was half deaf which makes sense. Anyway their promptness was great. read more

I highly recommend Daren for all your keys/rekeying, door hardware etc. He is highly reliable and reasonable in his service charges.

Daryl literally just left and I couldn't wait to write this review to let everyone how great he was. My front entrance doorknob fell off this morning and he came within 2hrs of the call. He knew exactly what the issue was and fixed it right away. Not only that, but he noticed the lock was not perfectly aligned with the side of the door (which I forgot to mention) and repaired that too. I can tell he's very experienced and been doing this for many years. He's very personable and friendly like a next door neighbor you would call for help. Overall, an honest gentlemen, great sense of humor and hard working. He's not about bare minimum services. Not only does he want you to be 100% satisfied, but I can tell he also wants to be 100% satisfied with his work and won't walk away until he is. That's how I know he takes pride in his work. His prices are reasonable and fair. Definitely, give him a try! read more

I had my keys stolen along with my wallet and had to replace my home door lock asap. Daryl came within 15 minutes and took care of replacing the lock in less than 30 minutes. He was quick and very reasonable price. Awesome job. read more

What a great find. Daryl is an obvious expert as he fixed our faulty deadbolt in just a few minutes. He knew the problem immediately, had the parts at the ready and had me on my way at a very reasonable price. TVL will be in my contacts list. read more

Great service, prompt and courteous. I use Tri-Valley locksmith for all my lock needs. Prices are reasonable and I trust the service. Thank you! read more

This business is a joke. I was locked out of my house today with my cell phone in my house unfortunately as well. I had to make 3 trips to a local hardware store to call these guys to see if they were still coming. They initially said half an hour and made me wait over an hour on a Saturday when I needed to work as well. Do not believe them when they tell you what time they will be there. Very inconsiderate. read more

How nice to call a company for help, and they actually answer the phone, text you when they say they will, and it ends with prompt, courteous, professional service in the end - Daryl was awesome! We had a small job at our house and he carried out with ease (definitely decades of experience!) in less than 24 hours from the initial call. I will keep him in mind for any future needs; I would recommend him to anyone. read more

Never again! I requested help to install a new lock on my front door. Daryl came by and after looking at my door for a few minutes and taking off a few screws, he told me he couldn't help me and charged me $75. What a complete and utter joke. Don't get ripped off like I did. read more

I would love to give Tri Valley a good rating but it is hard to evaluate when they never showed up. I called for an appointment on Saturday for a Monday service, stayed home from work...and nada, never showed. I would also note that when I called for the appointment, the gentleman on the line was quite distracted. I had to repeat the details several times. Unfortunately, not professional at all and cannot recommend these guys for service. read more

We run into an emergency last Fri late afternoon when the lock of our office fell apart. I called a couple other locksmiths but they were not available. We were so grateful when Gabe answered our call and said he would be there in 30 min. 20 mintues later, Gabe arrived and got our lock repaired in 10 minutes. Gabe was very friendly and profressional and seemed very knowledgeable when he repaired the lock while explaining to be what the issue was. We couldn't be more thrilled with our experience and would highly recommend them! read more

Daryl did a great job for me today, very quickly, and it was a great value. He is polite, professional, and accommodated my need for a quick fix. read more

We needed to have all the locks on our house rekeyed (oldest daughter lost her key to our house) so we called Tri Valley based on their great ratings. They were right on time, very nice, very efficient. Great job. We would use them again. read more

Why would I pay $95 for you to come look at my lock and fix it when I can go buy another lock at the store for half that? $95 to drive over to my house which is 6 blocks from your location? I'll pass.... read more

Daryl took my call and set an appointment right away. He arrived on time as promised. He was friendly, and professional. We had just moved into a commercial building, and we did not have the keys to a locked closet and to some of the internal doors. He unlocked the closet and re-keyed the doors. He worked very quickly, and his prices were very reasonable. I would highly recommend him, and will use him again if needed. Thanks Daryl! read more

Daryl... you are the MAN! 25 years experience and it shows! I had an issue with with my front door lock sticking and it got worse. It got so bad that I had to lean against the door and pull up while turning key. Eventually the lock would start slipping and I could hear some grinding. I called Daryl at 8:30 pm and he actually picked up. He was at my house at 10am the next day and with 20 minutes my lock was fixed. The lock now opens with ease. He made 3 new keys that work like a charm. Keys I made at Home Depot are garbage. I highly recommend Daryl for all locksmith needs. read more

Daryl cut and programmed my 2007 Honda Accord key! Great work! He knows what he's doing.

I needed some duplicates of my key, but it must have been a rare and unusual model, because I got turned away from TWELVE different locksmiths spanning all across the East Bay Area!!! None of them had the right key to cut onto. I'm so glad I found Tri Valley, because this was the only place that could offer the duplicates I needed. The service was speedy and friendly, and it was done for a very reasonable price. I have the most confidence in this locksmithing service now, and I can't recommend them enough. read more

Daryl came out and added a deadbolt to our front door.. I have very eager 5 year old twins who swing the front door open whenever anyone rings the doorbell. So I had him add a deadbolt higher up out of reach. He came on time, cleaned up after himself and made sure the deadbolt matched our existing lock. This was our second call, the first time we had him re-key our new home. Will call him again next time we need him for sure!! read more

Daryl assisted me this afternoon. Came to my office as my keys got locked in my private office at work. (Along with my phone, purse and dog!) Very professional and reasonable when comparing his rates to 3 other companies. He was also timely! Don't hesitate to use this business. read more
