I was looking for a spare key locksmith and this happened to be the 2nd business I called, the first one was too expensive. Called at roughly 12pm, Ben said he'd be at my house from 1p - 2p to get it done. Ben arrived at 1pm on the dot, very punctual - it took him about 45 minutes to make a spare key for my Mercedes and that's including making a copy of the manual key entry as well. Paid through Venmo and he went on his way. I'm very satisfied with the service, he even stuck around to make sure all the buttons worked correctly.

I used BDS to get a new key fob for my Prius. He showed up on time, was very quick and efficient. Charged me exactly what he quoted over the phone even when the programming took a bit more time than expected. Highly recommend.

Ben was great! I needed his help to program a 2nd keyless entry fob for my minivan. We coordinated by Google Business Messages text, where we discussed the make, model, and scheduling. He was super responsive by text and answered all my questions, before I committed to scheduling appointment. He was willing to come over immediately, but I wasn't in a rush. We scheduled for a convenient time, and Ben observed social distance in my driveway. Ben wore a mask, and completed the task within 15 minutes, including cutting the spare key. Felt super safe. Thanks again, Ben!

Benjamin was a true professional and fair on price. He replaced two fobs on my Honda Pilot in just under 30min.

I called bds when I lost my keys to my 2007 Corolla, they came quick and were able to program and cut 2 new keys with a keyless entry remote. It only cost a fraction of what the dealer would’ve charged. Bds helped me quickly resolve a frustrating situation I would highly recommend.

The tech copied a lost key for me. But didn't explain that if I found the old one, using it would disable the car. I called him back stranded down town. He said it would be difficult to get down here and not possible to fix without his diagnostic equipment. After waiting for this guy for an hour I decided to check it out myself. Google had a procedure that fix it for free and with out any specialized tools. Hhmmm

Ben was able to come quickly (within 24 hours) from my first call. He verified, in person, that I was the home owner (a security step I appreciated). He was personable and polite, asking it he could enter the house before doing so. He worked fast, checking his work and then asking me to do so as well so he knew I was satisfied. I haven’t used many locksmiths for comparison but I was very happy with Ben/BDS Locksmith.

I own a gym in San Jose and someone ripped our lockbox off the door. Benjamin came by on short notice within a few hours and was able to change all 4 locks in under an hour. Very grateful for his services. Thank you!

Lost my only set of keyfob. Called Benjamin around 6 PM. He called me back around 6:45 PM saying he could be at my car in 20 minutes. Met him at my car. Took 30 mins to get into my car and build a new hard key and working key fob. Lifesaver! Would have spent money on towing the car to the dealership and paying for the replacement keyfob then.

Was visiting San Jose and managed to lose THE ONLY keys to my friends Toyota Prius. Found BDS on Google - they were more affordable than going to the dealer and they came to me so I didn’t have to tow my car anywhere. He was friendly, fast, and efficient and I walked away with two new keys at a great price. Very happy with the service!

Was able to make me a new WORKING key. With no issues. I purchased a new key straight from dealership and it did not work. Ben was able to come and have it done the same night! Highly recommend his services 👌. Will be using as my future/preferred locksmith from now on. Very informative.

Someone took a screwdriver to my sister-in-law's 1997 Honda CRV in front of our house and ruined the lock. I reached out to Benjamin for help and he gave me an immediate quote via text, ordered the new part, and showed up on time to swap things out. This was all taken care of within the week. He was even able to rekey the replacement car lock so she could use her old key. He threw in a brand new key + lubricated all of the locks for free. Super friendly, super knowledgeable, extremely professional, FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE! Above and beyond! You can't go wrong with Benjamin and BDS Locksmith!!

Prompt and quick service, charged only for the work he did (I had already installed the locks on the door) and did some extra work with our garage door to fix the locks for free. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

I called Ben this morning and got an appointment the same day. He was early for our meeting and the whole process took less than 10 minutes. Super friendly and reasonably priced. I have been trying to get a back up car key for years. Ben made me a new key out of his van! Highly recommend.

We were locked out of the apartment and I called Benjamin (got a referral from a friend). Within 15 minutes Benjamin drove over and let us inside! He was also very professional and verified the ID and lease documents. Thank you Benjamin for the fast service! (Note: They are open only until 9 pm)

  We needed our locks re-keyed because we lost a set of keys. Benjamin answered or Yelp request promptly and gave us a quote. He was here right on time and did a great job. He made sure we checked his work before he left, and was friendly and professional. I would definitely use his company again. Thanks BDS!

  I asked Yelp for a quote. Benjamin replied quickly, and he not only asked for the model year of the car, but also gave me the exact cost right away. His price was much better compared to the quote I got a year ago from another locksmith, probably because last time I needed an emergency roadside service while this time my time is more flexible.

He arrived on the same day within the time range we agreed on. He called 25 mins before he arrived at my place to give me a heads-up, and called again when he arrived. He finished the job quickly and didn't show impatience when I took some time to find the car registration/insurance info. The overall process was very smooth. Highly recommended!

  Excellent service all the way around. We had to change our locks immediately and BDS was very responsive and knew our situation was urgent. Guess what? Didnt even charge us extra or take advantage at all. Another locksmith wanted to charge additional $200 knowing we needed immediate help. But BDS took care of us and the work is quality too. I definitely will keep using this business and will let others know. I already have. Thank you BDS! God bless you.

  I was locked out of my vehicle because my keys were lost. I had two new fobs made and duplicate house keys with mail box keys made as well.

Service was quick and reasonable as l got four keys and two fobs for less than the dealer would have changed just for one fob.

One aside it seems there is one standard rate for car lockout no matter the locksmith.

It was quick and professional service and I was very happy to get the car running again

  We needed a new mailbox lock, so I reached out to Benjamin earlier this afternoon. He was remarkably responsive and gave a reasonable quote upfront. To help confirm his estimate, he also asked for a picture of the mailbox lock. I was thrilled that he was able to come right away. One thing I noticed immediately was his van; it looked very professional and it was very clear that he seemed prepared for any locksmith situation required. Benjamin was able to resolve our mailbox lock situation relatively quickly.

Overall we were very happy with his services, and I would call BDS back in the future for all my locksmith needs. Thanks so much, Benjamin!
