I needed to rekey locks on two separate doors so they fit the same key. Friendly Locksmith was super responsive and able to do the work quickly and at a super reasonable price. Great communication and easy to work with. Will definitely be using them again!
I had a wonderful experience with Friendly Locksmith and Security! I needed help with my mailbox lock, and the technician arrived even earlier than scheduled. He was extremely polite, professional, and efficient. He completed the job in just five minutes, and the price was great!! Excellent service from start to…
Accidentally locked myself out of my apartment and they arrived and got me back in within an hour! Great service, good prices, would recommend!
Vsevolod (aka Simon) came out in the evening on an after hours call when I wasn't able to replace my deadbolt. It was too badly damaged. He had a replacement in his van and rekeyed it as well. Very reasonable pricing for the quality and promptness of service. I would not hesitate recommending him for any locksmith jobs big or small.
Super fast and easy! Bro is the goat, he showed up early and gave me a great price on 2 new keys for my car. He was transparent about the price upfront and answered all my questions.
