Joe’s Lock And Key

I called Joe’s for 2 reasons: proximity to my home and the reviews. The first time I called, I asked if it was the locksmith, didn’t get an answer, then got hung up on. Thinking it was my mistake I called again. When I called the second time, I again asked if it was the Locksmith and asked for a quote when confirmed. The man on the line said «I’m not giving you a quote, either you need my services or not, cuz it’s Sunday and its Father’s Day». Before I could answer to have the service performed, he hangs up on me. I would’ve paid any reasonable amount to get into my home and my child out of the 100+ degree heat.
I understand that it was a holiday, but customer service didn’t have to be so rude; He simply could have said that they were unavailable, or just not answer any service calls.

Called Joe this morning to get a quote to re-​key the locks on my new house. He was out within an hour and did 11 locks within another hour. We went through together and checked all the locks and he made adjustments where needed. Friendly and takes pride in his work. Couldn’t ask for better service.

Great experience. My girlfriend had her purse stolen. Locksmith came and made new car keys, put new locks for the apartment and then was honest in saying that was as far as we needed to go. Doing more would have not been worth the expense. Very pleased with the service.

I called Joe’s when I bought my new house. He came same day and re-​keyed 25 locks! All security doors, entry doors, and gates. He even made separate gate keys that I can give to the gardener and pool guy so if they get lost I only have to change 1 key and they only have access to that gate. Very reasonable price and exceptional customer service!

Joe’s lock and key saved me from serious trouble — walked over to the mailbox w my wife and the dog, discovered I had left my house key in the house. Oh Crap!!! 91 yo mother in law couldn’t help, couldn’t break into the place we rent– thank God for Joe’s, and cell phones! Had us in the house within 25 minutes including transit time– ON Superbowl Sunday no less. Though trying to leave town for family Memorial he still came and helped us with no hesitation. Charged a reasonable price.
Great business. Will use him again — heaven forbid I need him, though!

If i could i would rate this no stars first off i was trying to get an estimate of my car because i had locked my keys in the car and he told me he would charge my boyfriend $ 60 dollars. My boyfriend said «no thank you we’ll give you a call back» thats if this was the cheapest price. Anyways he then told us «You’re the reason why the economy is so low». Sorry you got mad and we didn’t want to pay that much for something that doesn’t even take 10 minutes to open if i would do it myself i could but i don’t want my car to end up scratched. Second it was rude to say that because what id we were actually going to give you a call back is this how you want customers to come to you? Third you just earned yourself a bad review on Unilocal

Called and he was at our house within 20 min! Faster & cheaper than the other locksmiths we called!

Very fast! Less than 5 minutes to unlock my front door! Highly recommend! He is very friendly and very knowledgeable

Called the dealer to get a 1994 vehicle key using the VIN. They can do that only back to 2000. Joe’s was recommended. Joe’s been locksmithing 40 years.
He had new keys made for vehicle 1 in about 40 minutes. Car 2 is a 1980’s model that took two hours more to create properly working keys.
Not only that I got two Joe’s pens, two Joe’s carabiner keyholders and two Joe’s keyrings. What A Schwag Haul!
He’s got Square for over the air charges.

I needed locks re keyed on a Sunday evening. Couldn’t get ahold of anyone all weekend until Joe! :) I was very pleased with his willingness to help me and in a timely manner. Extremely professional… Extremely knowledgeable… Extremely helpful… I will continue to use for any and all locksmith needs!

Very professional service on time and explained what he was doing to get me in my 1999 f150 that I had lost the key for. Highly recommend.

Two lost key sets and Joe was able to get me into my camper and security box, then cut off my trailer hitch pin too! Very friendly and professional! Thanks, Joe.

Joe is fast and efficient. I called him out when I moved into my house for a re-​key and joe had the job done within less than an hour and was reasonable with the price. When finished he did a walkthrough to make sure I was satisfied (witch I was) I would definitely call joe out again

Joe just contacted me to apologize (via Unilocal) and ask for my business back. It only took him 6 months to follow up but better late than never. While I do appreciate his apology, I have already found another locksmith who I am happy with. So, I have given Joe an extra star (from 1 to 2) for the effort. Maybe he is not horrible. Maybe he is just too busy to follow up on promises.

Joe is the man he was out in a jiff got me back on the road and and he is friendly and fair I recommend joe for all your lock and key needs

I needed a key made for my Toyota Camry, I called a lot of locksmiths before calling here and all wanted to charge me $ 100 or more. Finally found this, gave him a call and and right away gave me a price. He was actually trying to save me money. Aha anyway long story short. Great locksmith, quick service with a reasonable price. I would definitely recommend him. Thanks Joe!

I highly recommend Joe for any lock and key needs. He is quick, and performs superb quality check with the customer to ensure you are satisfied.

Joe answered my call late at night when I need my lock fixed. He showed up within 15 mins. He was fast and friendly. I will be calling him again when I need a lock smith. I recommend him to everyone.

I was referred to Joe from a friend of mine. I was in need of a locksmith after my Aunt had passed away and needed to secure the house. Have Joe a call and he was out within minutes. Initially I was only going have a few locks changed due to my limited budget, but after seeing how he did things and how quickly he got the job done, I ended up having him change the remainder locks to match. Without question, he had the 5 remaining locks re-​keyed within matter of minutes. One of the other things that I liked about his service is that he was able to create a unique key combination for my house and one that would make it very difficult for someone to tamper with the lock, right on the truck. No master key needed. And for the future, he provided the key combo for emergency duplicates just in case. Best locksmith in Bakersfield. And he is that of a true locksmith, not a key cutter like most other «locksmiths» in this town.

Joe was prompt and very effective at fixing a broken lock on a front door. We will call him again the next time we need a locksmith.
