    Botak locksmiths were incredibly helpful with our smart lock which wasn't working. He spoke through on the phone and give me advice to help and saved me almost $300 with great professionalism and expertise. I would recommend their services to anyone!

    Response from the business

    Thanks for your kind words. And also your listening ears. We hope to be of "real" service soon!!

  2. Eugene S.

    Initial review: Incredibly rude. I reached out asking whether they could repair a digital lock, specifying the model, providing videos and setting out the troubleshooting steps I had taken. One contact said he was driving when I first dropped him a message. When I checked in 3 hours later he said he would call me in 10 minutes but never did. I messaged the other contact 4 hours after the first said he would call me, explaining that I had not received a call back. The reply was “then wait”. He later said “what lock. I don't have record”. Eventually, he said he doesn’t repair such locks and to call other locksmiths. That’s perfectly fine but I don’t understand the need for the runaround or the rudeness. After note: Joel called me to explain why he wasn’t able to call me back earlier in the day and to apologise for his colleague’s rudeness. He also gave me reasonable advice on repairing my lock and offered to go through some hassle to see whether he could repair it for a reasonable price. So I have amended the 1 star review to a 4 star review. To be clear, I would give Joel 5 stars and his colleague 0 stars.

  7. Val K.

    Spoke very rudely on the phone and hang up. Am surprised to see all the reviews here. Probably self made fake reviews

    Response from the business

    Hi, I apologize for the bad experience. Maybe my guy on duty was on a job and lacked tact. Thanks for your review. Reviews are real, we don't have the budget for self reviews by rouge marketeers. All the best.

  11. Mx's

    they are the most expensive unlocking euro cylinder, in then end done at 100. so not feeling very good with them.

    Response from the business

    Hi Mike, thanks for your review. I apologize for the bad after taste you had with our locksmiths. However, I must say we try to be competent with our skills and fair with our quotes. Since we were the most expensive, I wonder why did you choose and agree to our prices initially? Also, I believe we did complete the job and everything else was in order? And we didn't damage the euro lock cylinder as well?

  14. Hello, J.

    The absolute best locksmith ever. I’ve used their service multiple times in the past. Super reliable and efficient, and their prices are also very reasonable. Just today, they helped with my neighbour’s main door and gate, and all I can say is Mr Teck is a true expert in this field! We can’t thank him and the rest of the team enough. The whole issue was resolved in under 45 mins, inclusive of his travel time to our location! I’ll definitely keep recommending these guys to anyone that needs a dependable locksmith!

    Response from the business

    Thanks...just honest locksmithing. 🙏

  15. Uncle Teck had magic hands. Firstly, over the phone, he could already tell what had to be done (just change cylinder will do). Secondly, when he arrived, everything was done in less than a minute! Felt like just 10 seconds. I am awe-struck. I felt $100 was just a tad bit too high though. My first point of contact was Robert's number. He was not available but had an auto-response message of alternative numbers to call and Ah Teck's response was immediate. Overall, a good experience.

    Response from the business

    It's our pleasure to serve you. Thanks for your kind words

    Huge thanks to Mr. Robert! He was incredibly responsive and came all the way to unlock my bathroom door. What a dramatic day—my wife and I got stuck inside the toilet around 6AM++, had to climb out through the window, enter the house through the kitchen, and then call for a locksmith. Mr. Robert arrived within 30 minutes, just as he promised over the phone. Truly a lifesaver!

  18. Prinisha S.

    The location showed here is not the accurate location, been circling this block for more than 15 minutes only to find out the location showed is actually a Community Centre that have been there for the last 7 years. I tried contacting them but both numbers are invalid. Please if you're still in Business kindly update your information, I've wasted more than an hour coming here and trying to locate it. Very disappointed.

    Response from the business

    Prinisha, please note that this is a mobile locksmith, with no shop, because we don't provide an apartment number. The number link is broken and has been fixed. Thanks for your feedback

    We had a stuck door handle at 1am and Steven came to our rescue in 30 min. He was very professional and did his best to minimise the damage to the existing door handle & lock so that we wouldn’t have to pay an exorbitant price to change unnecessarily. Appreciate his helpfulness and tips in maintaining the door handles!

    My room key was jammed . I called Botak Locksmiths who kindly gave me verbal instructions on the phone video on how to remove the jam instead of charging me $70 to change to a new lock . It was successful as the jam was removed . I like to thank Botak Locksmiths for free service .

  42. Wonderful gentleman to have been acquainted with, even though the circumstances of our meeting is via a locked out door. Articulate and honest in his assessment. Realized he has a business that included his 7 siblings, 4 nephews and 2 friends. Along those lines. Prompt. Got the door fixed and charges were reasonable. Would recommend him to all who needs an honest person or business to deal with. Well done!

    Response from the business

    Sorry for the belated thank you!

  43. Opera T.

    Uncle responded promptly to my call. WhatsApp me to send the picture of the faulty lock. Came in half an hour together with his assistant. Had my lower main door lock replaced and also helped to realigned the upper lock due to sinking door. Charged me $90 for lock replacement n did a extra service for realignment without charges. Good efficient n friendly services. Highly recommendable.

    Response from the business

    Thanks

  44. Nicholas T.

    Quick and reliable. Has a quick call explaining my situation then Robert was able to give a quick quote and an ETA. ~$70 for unlocking, varies according to how far your place and the type of lock. Terence came by promptly and fixed it, explaining to me what he was doing along the way and what he thought the problem was. He even explained in Hokkien to grandma! Friendly guy Terence!

  45. Dunno why the cancellation fee is so expensive $60!!!! So better think twice before calling

    Response from the business

    Hi sir, u can disagree with the price. If it's not agreeable btw both parties, the deal won't happen. The reason for us to tell you that on first contact is to make sure the customer is sincere and not taking our service for granted, I think all locksmiths or servicemen who get cancelled halfway will feel the same. Furthermore, the fee is not imposed prior to our service activation, it's just a preventive measure. So it's a very simple rule... U agree we go, you don't agree we don't go. I also dunno why such a customer exists...if you think a certain goods or service is too expensive, you have all the right to not take it up. Although we all know that the customer is "always right", I think you didn't manage to become our customer. So god has blessed us and most likely have avoided a calamity. If I can give you a rating, you deserve a five star for the most senseless comment ever. And thanks for give us this one star, in fact it normalises our rating by making it more real.

  46. Vanessa I.

    Excellent and real 24/7 service! The uncle was at our place in less than 15 minutes and we are grateful for his help!

  47. Lynn L.

    It was on rush hour to school, the door lock was faulty. The Uncle quoted $100 after accessment via phone. He taught me how to unscrew & we managed to open the door for my children to go to school. He reduced to $80 to replace a spare part of the lock. Thanks for the uncle who is kind hearted & the price is reasonable!
