Joe came by in 5 min and had me back in my apartment after a lockout. More importantly he was kind and made me laugh which is what I needed in the moment. What a good dude and an asset to have in this horrible city full of bad people who are selfish and cannot think about anyone other than themselves. Thanks Joe!

I called trying to get some help making copies for a couple vehicle keys, the lady that answered sounded like she didnt want to help me, said they were closed? but that someone would call me back, someone did but they were very rude and impatient.I just dont understand.

Yoav was fantastic! I needed my car unlocked, plus a new key made for my Prius since I somehow lost my key. He came out right away, within 20 minutes, got my car open, and got a new key made! He charged less than anywhere else I called for a quote, and was really funny once I got to talk to him.10/10 highly recommend.

Took over 1.5 hours to change a deadbolt (with at least three calls to his manager for instructions during the repair) and then tried to get me to be responsible for a street cleaning parking ticket he received, after he parked FACING THE WRONG DIRECTION on the street cleaning side of the street. If youre going to drive and park the wrong direction, obviously you are going to miss the street cleaning signs, but thats your fault. Look, the technician seems like he is a good kid and wants to be a good locksmith, but hes very green and needs to be a bit more professional.Prior review: 2 starsNew Review: 3 starsUPDATE (10-17-2019): Owner called to apologize for technicians lack of professionalism and offered to refund a portion of the fee in compensation, which was very fair. Owner handled situation very well, and I will consider using them in the future based on the way the owner rectified the situation.

Maurice at A1 gave me the best advice to get colored keys to make it easy on my guests. I am so appreciative to him and will always go back when I need something. He has 24 hour mobile service and in my real estate business that is very helpful to me and my clients!

I needed to switch some locks in my office I shopped around and got some quotes A1 defiantly had the best prices and the best customer service! I scheduled an appointment with Yoav he arrived on time and ready to work Remember a lot of these company’s tell you one price over the phone and another price when they get to your home A1 kept the same price from when we spoke on the phone!! Thank you will recommend to all friends and family

I lost my car key late evening in the heart of Los Angeles City where the walking dead come out at night. Needless to say it was in a very shady part of town. I was scared and in tears when I called A1 Locksmith. The man whom answered my call was attentive, empathetic, and kind he put my mind at ease. I expressed my car key has a chip so it makes the process more complicated. He was totally knowledgeable and said he could create a key for me with a chip and I had the choice to add remote capability. Then he informed me of the reasonable price and said he could meet me in ten minutes. He did show up in ten minutes punctual and friendly. He unlocked my car with ease and speediness (this takes great skill) and created my key. The entire process took about 30mn.I am thankful at A1 Locksmith & Keys for helping me out.😭❤️🦋CH

Review №17

Easily the best service Ive had performed in a long time. I was able to make an appointment the night before for Easter Sunday. They arrived promptly, swapped out my lock in under 5 minutes, the guy was very friendly, and the cost was way cheaper than I thought itd be. Cant recommend these guys enough!

Review №18

A +++ very excellent service. The locksmith would not accept payment until the job was complete and until I was happy with the service, he actually refused money at first! Very polite on the phone and gave an accurate quote and his price was better than anyone that I found online. He also came to the house in LESS than 30 minutes from my phone call. I will be referring this company to all of my friends and family.- Cliff

Amazing. We got locked out of our apartment and the man had the door open in minutes. We also only had one copy of our key so he made us another 2 copies for free. Great service and I would recommend to anyone! Thank you!

In my situation, he quoted me the price if X and the price if Y. He was very clear about the cost. He told me when he would arrive then he arrived when he said he would. He got the job done. I do recommend him and I will use his service again as needed.

Review №26

This guy is awesome. I locked myself out of my apartment and was so worried it would be extremely expensive and difficult to get back in. Not only did he come to my apartment within 10 minutes, he got my door open in 5 minutes without destroying the lock! He quoted me $75 on the phone but gave me a discount cause he was able to do it so fast! By far the best experience I could have imagined. Put this locksmith in your contacts!!

I left my car keys in the trunk, so I was locked out of my car. I called A1 Locksmith and he came in 10 minutes. It took him a minute to open the car and get the keys in the trunk. He is a very professional and friendly man. I recommend him and his services!

Review №33

Honestly this man saved my life! As a 24 year old guy in Los Angeles, I tend to be the first one screwed when it comes to various technical services. I had lost my last set of keys to my Mustang and freaked out because the Ford dealership wouldnt take me and was about to charge me a WILD fee. I found A-1 online and he was the ONLY locksmith that explained the entire process/options to me in a way I could comprehend and didnt make me feel like I was just a dollar sign. He was very efficient and even gave me some awesome advice about cars. I will be recommending him to anyone I know that needs a trustworthy locksmith in LA. He knows what he is doing and wont waist your time.

I lost my key to my Lexus RX300 and I called A1 Keys. He came out promptly and made a key for me in no time. He was professional, courteous and the price was much cheaper than what the dealer wanted. I absolutely recommend this company and would call them again if needed.

Great service. Had 2 keys w/ built in remotes cut and programmed for my 2010 4Runner. Yoav did and excellent and quick job of it for a fraction of what Toyota charges. Highly recommended.

Review №36

Avoid the attitude and obvious inconvenience for the owner to copy a key, he couldn’t even make the copy with a different color. Head to one of the many Key-Me kiosks around town that will copy the key quickly or mail it to your house if they don’t have the exact style you want in the machine.

I went to water my plants downstairs & didnt even realize I locked the door behind me. I called this place, which actually came up as Jangs Locksmith when I received the receipt. Anyhow, I called them at 8:00PM on the dot. I was in my apartment before 8:20PM. They charged me $60 & a $3 fee to pay with my card. I cant really complain because he got here super quick & unlocked my door in literal minutes. Thanks!

Yoav is the best Locksmith in Los Angeles. If your looking for great service at a very fair price, look no further than Yoav from A-1. I was in a jam when I called Yoav and he went out of his way to help me, then undercharged me for the job. Ill never use another locksmith. Thanks again Yoav.Sincerely,Ty

Review №76

A1/Yoav runs an honest key business. I called him to make a Jeep Cherokee key (with a programed chip in the key). He gave me a competitive price over the phone, 25 minutes later he showed up in his van, cut me the Jeep key copy, programed it and the key worked perfectly. I decided to get a second key made and he gave me a very good discount for the second key. I had called 2 other local locksmiths earlier and they were more expensive and couldnt come for 2 - 3 hours. Yoav was the fastest, gave me the best price and was a nice enough guy to talk to me while he was working! You cant go wrong using this guy for cutting+programing auto keys.On a side note, I called Buerge Jeep on Santa Monica after A1 key made my key just to get a comparative price, they were ridiculously expensive and inconvenient! I would have to tow the Jeep to the dealer ($180) + key blank ($110) + programming the new key ( $120) = $410 to get a single key made?! haha!
