All City Locksmith

These guys do a great job. I use a lot of different locksmiths depending on my rental location. I trust All City. Their locksmith employees ...

All City came to my business and rekeyed and did some repairs on time and very quickly. My locks work perfectly. All their locksmiths are licensed and bonded pros. I highly recommend them and I like them.

Steve came out to fix old lock 8 months ago and installed a new cylinder. He was very nice and we even spent some time talking about wine etc... A few months later the screws started to come lose. Eventually the screws came out so I called allcitylock. When Steve showed up, the first thing out of his mouth seemed to be "you are still paying", referring to the $70 service call, just to show up. He kept telling me that my lock was old and that they are always breaking. In reality my lock hadn't let me down. The screws that Steve had used to attach his new cylinder had let me down. I explained to him that if he had taken the time to do the job correctly the first time his job would have lasted more than 8 months. If he had simply drilled new holes instead of using the old ones there would have been no need for this $70 service call. He got angry and told me that I was lucky that he wasn't charging me labor for him to take his drill and drill two new holes. I called the office a... Read more

alex came out to fix the lock to my apartment (key broke off in the lock). he showed up early, and finished the job in minutes - removed the broken key, did some filing so the door would lock/unlock easily, and made an extra key. he didn't charge me much and was very professional and helpful.

After reading the reviews, wanted to use All City Locksmith. I called the main number and talked to Christine who was very nice and set up a time for a locksmith to come out the same day between 1-3pm. 3pm rolled around, 3:30pm, 4pm, no call, no doorbell ring, no nothing. When I called the main number and castro location number, the phone rang and rang and rang. No voicemail, no nothing. Not sure why they are so unresponsive, and wish I could have used them but they didn't seem to want to make it happen!

I was hesitant about going here because of the negative comments of the last poster but i'm glad i went ahead and hired "Steve" anyways. I had a specific and as we learned, a "huge problem" taking out half a key that was snapped off my motorcycle ignition(one of the hardest jobs for a locksmith if your lucky enough to get someone that knows this area of the trade). This happened to happen at the worst possible time as I had several potential buyers (of the same motorcycle) at the scene show up. I could NOT have had a better craftsman of his trade show up! Steve knows his stuff!!! He quoted me at $160 earlier via phone....He was going at it for over 2 hours(with a crowd of impatient buyers surrounding him) until he got the remainder of that key out of the ignition and then made me 2 copies......for $160!!!! Steve is an old-school craftsman that knows his trade inside out and outside in and I appreciate that alot about him. He's also an old-school guy that says it the way it is w... Read more

Based on the glowing reviews here, I called All City Locksmith to re-key a deadbolt, but I have to say it was one of the more unpleasant transactions I have been involved in. The locksmith was very short tempered and rude, and commented that he'd need to hurry because he was concerned for his safety in our neighborhood. I commented that the area wasn't particularly dangerous, which seemed to add to his irritation. A stroller or a bicyclist may run into him, but that's about it -- our area of the Mission is hardly a warzone. Anyway, fifteen minutes later I get the bill and the bill is five times what I had to pay a different locksmith to rekey a lock a few months ago. To top it all off, on the invoice the guy wrote my name in it's feminine form (I am a guy, but not very straight-acting, apparently). I wasn't rude to him at all, so whatever... I wish the other locksmith was still around, but they went out of business for lack of the proper permits or something. The other guys w... Read more

I was impressed with how quickly they responded to my non-emergency call (next day service--on a Saturday), and how quickly they fixed my broken lock.

All City is extremely professional and courteous. High praises for the front office phone customer service, their follow-up, and the locksmith (Steve). Steve is obviously a professional lockshmith, as he fixed both my locks in short order. Steve also took the time to field my questions, and he had some excellent advice. I am very happy with my new locksmith, and I highly recommend All City!

We had our car stolen with keys to our house inside... All City came within an hour, was incredibly friendly, reasonably priced and had our locks changed immediately -- all on a Saturday afternoon! They're fabulous!

Since 1979, locksmiths are available for autos, file cabinets, doors, deadbolt problems and more at any hour of the day.

I know now what locksmith to call whenever I am in need! After having managed to lock my keys in my car I had 3 different locksmiths "try" to help me, fortunately I reached Steve from All City with the 4th call. He was up-front and courteous about the challenges of opening up my BMW and then had Alex at my place in 20 minutes. My apologies for the cliche, however "where there is a will there is a way"...and Alex found it! After being poorly treated (in fact laughed at) by other locksmiths it was refreshing to find the All City team. They know about locks and about being professional, I highly recommend them to anybody.

All City is highly professional and courteous. Steve arrived early and did a fabulous job on my locks. Steve also spent some time answering my questions, and explaining why I didn't need to spend more money on a part I didn't need. I'm very happy with my new locksmith. I highly recommend All City!

Over the past 15 years I have called upon All City Locksmith to change keys and locks for various apartments as well as help us with lockouts and security needs. No need to call anyone else because they are pleasant, reliable,professional and fair in price.

The job I required was small, but I was treated in a courteous manner. The locksmith arrived and went promptly to work. There was no "high pressure" pitch for more expensive materials. The job was finished quickly and done very,very well. I would recommend All City to anyone!
