Daniel’s Locksmith Service

I’ve locked myself out of my about 5 times now (you’d think I’d have learned) and I’ve always had locksmiths who will only quote a «starting» price that will go up from there, or who try to get more money out of me in other ways, like telling me they will probably have to drill the lock even before trying to pick it open.
Daniel was the exact opposite. He’s very nice, completely professional and very fast. I called midday on a Monday and he said he’d be at my place in 15 minutes, and he actually arrived 15 minutes later. Upon arrival, he got to work immediately and had my door open in 2 minutes, and that was it! No hidden fees, no talks about drilling, etc. I 100% recommend him to anyone.

DANIEL IS AMAZING! He was at my apt in 20 min on a Friday night and unlocked my door in, no joke, 2 seconds! Amazing! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Thank you Daniel! I felt so sad today when I locked myself out of my house. My only sad, but felt stupid. So I turned to Unilocal as I usually do. thank you guys! I was not disappointed. Daniel was professional. Once he arrived he got me into my house in five minutes. I would recommend.

Didn’t actually require his service after all, but spent several minutes on the phone with him explaining the situation and he has been very professional and helpful on how to deal with the problem.
¹⁰⁄₁₀ would call again

Fast. Reliable. High quality.

Fast, kind, and professional — can’t ask for better! Locked myself out on a Saturday AM. Daniel was at the apartment in 15 minutes and had the door unlocked in 30 minutes. While the door required drilling, Daniel replaced the lock and key free of charge. Thank you for taking the stress out of a stressful situation!
Will definitely use Daniel again!

Locked out early in the morning & thankfully Daniels was able to quickly come over and actually cut a new key! Thank you!

Was at my door in 15 minutes. Got into my house and he fixed the lock to be better than it previously was. Great service.

What else can I say more than the 5 star rating? Daniel is the ultimate locksmith — showed up on time, came in under the quoted price, shared some lock/​keying knowledge, and was one of the most friendly and personable service providers I’ve found in SF. He was super efficient, and even took care of a few locks we hadn’t planned on changing out. He made me 30 keys (yes 30, as I needed to distribute to building tenants) on site in a matter of minutes. I’m recommending him to everyone I know!
PS — I called 5 different locksmiths all rated highly on Unilocal for quotes. Daniel’s Locksmith was far and away the cheapest.

Inadvertently locked myself out of house came in 10mins did the job and cheaper than three other places I called and charged flat rate which was the bonus

Favorite locksmith ever (not that I have a lot of experience with lock changing)!!! I wanted to get my locks changed after a roommate moved out, and when I called Daniel he offered to be at my house in 30 minutes. He was prompt, efficient, and clearly knew his trade well. He realized one of my locks was missing a pin and replaced it free of charge.
Daniel’s prices are very reasonable, and should I ever need a locksmith again, I will go to him. Thanks Daniel!

Fast, kind and got the job done. My lock was pretty hard to beat, but he ended up tearing open the knob and replacing it — seamless and kinda badass.
Will use him again in a bind!

Daniel is by far the best locksmith in town. I’ve had to use his services multiple times and he’s super fast every time. Extremely professional and efficient. His prices are the best in town also. You can’t beat the value and service.

Daniel called me back less than an hour after I left him a voicemail. I told him about the problem I was having with my lock, sent him a photo, and he told me how to fix the lock myself. The fact that Daniel was kind enough to advise me how to fix the lock instead of coming by and charging for a service visit speaks volumes. I highly recommend Daniel; he’ll be the first person I call next time I have lock trouble.

Wow, who would have thought that having your locks changed would be such an enjoyable experience. I scheduled an appointment with Daniel for the following day and he showed up right on time.
He’s a very friendly and knowledgeable locksmith (he’s been working as one for 15 years) — you can tell he really enjoys his craft.
His prices were very reasonable and he was able to make copies of the keys onsite so I didn’t have to go to a hardware store. He even made sure each key worked properly in the locks. I also appreciated his attention to detail: he warned me to be careful of getting any oil on my clothes for the first couple of days as he freshly oiled the lock.
Would definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy, knowledgable, and friendly locksmith.

Great deal and Daniel came quick, maybe 10 min tops. He can even cut keys in his van. Highly recommended.

Never had to use a lock smith before, but if I had to do it again I would use Daniel in a heartbeat. Called 5 or 6 places in the area around 4:45 on a Monday. They all had huge after hour charges and told me it would be better for them to come tomorrow… accept it was my front door and I didn’t plan to stay outside all night
When I spoke with Daniel, his rate was at least half what the others had quoted me. He said he could be to my house in 15 minutes and was there in 10. He fixed my door in 5 minutes and I went on with my day. Saved me a lot of time and money.

Super fast, super reliable. Called at 6:10 and my door was open by 6:30.
I’ve used him 3 times now. The prices have increased lately but he’s still the best.

Daniel was great. He always picked up the phone and was available when we needed him. He came over the day we called and was prompt with his service.
My only con was that it was $ 79.79 for a change of lock an a mailbox which ended up being ridiculously simple. Something we could have done ourselves. I think $ 80 for that is a bit pricey, but nonetheless the service was good.

Fast, friendly, reliable service from an expert locksmith. Daniel is very flexible and was able to accommodate my schedule. He was prompt showing up and was even early which worked out great for me.
Prices are very reasonable and inexpensive. He helped me change and rekey almost the entire house in around 1.5 hours.
Thank you so much!
