Did not inflate the price like some guys do like the last time I locked myself out. I called and within 15 minutes they were here and fixed my locks. Thanks Tony and team.

Golden Key Locksmith offered a highly competitive price for their services and provided exceptional convenience, along with a comprehensive warranty and fantastic responsive service, making them a reliable and trustworthy choice for emergency locksmith matters, from lock installation to long-term lock maintenance, which I took full advantage of during my recent 24 hour locksmith emergency. With their 24/7 mobile locksmith available, I found comfort knowing that help was always just a phone call away, especially as a residential locksmith with multiple properties to secure, being from out of town.

The dude in this picture broke in to our home on the Upper West Side in July 2023 and stole a lot of cash and credit cards. We have him on camera and of course got the police involved. Second stop was Golden Key Locksmith- they consulted on how to fortify our door so it would be tamper proof and added in J-channel treatment same day. Well, just last week (about a year later- second picture) we saw on our security camera the SAME BURGLAR come poking around our door at 3am. In the security camera video, he shook the doorknob but didn't even try to break in. Thank you Golden Key for your help protecting our home!

I contacted Steven & Golden Key to help replace the locks on an apartment we purchased. Not only was he remarkably responsive, but he recommended -- not based on an upsell, but per the stated requirements -- what types of locks & keys would work best. Cannot recommend him highly enough!
