Boston's Top-Rated
Locksmith.

"I highly recommend Ray at City Locksmith. He responded quickly, arrived within 20 minutes, and was able to diagnose and repair a complicated older mortise lock on my front door. What started as a broken key stuck in a lock turned into several underlying issues with the lock and door hardware, all of which he patiently explained and fixed. His pricing was very reasonable, his workmanship was excellent, and he even took the time to check the other locks in the house. Knowledgeable, honest, and incredibly thorough. I'll absolutely use him again and would confidently recommend him to clients and colleagues."

"Ray at City Locksmith is absolutely fabulous. He is professional, courteous, efficient, and has an incredible attention to detail. We called Ray during an emergency lockout from the house and not only did he quickly solve the immediate problem, but he also implemented a far more thoughtful long-term solution that preserved both our antique door and its original antique locks while upgrading the underlying hardware for improved security and reliability. It is rare to find someone with such a deep understanding of traditional locksmithing who is equally comfortable implementing modern security solutions. He was willing to come out on a weekend, responded promptly, and charged a very reasonable price for the quality of work provided. It is rare to find someone who combines technical skill, respect for historic details, cutting-edge knowledge, and outstanding customer service. We highly recommend Ray and City Locksmith LLC for Back Bay, Brookline, Newton and Needham"

"Ray was super helpful today! Got locked out of my apartment in Back Bay and he arrived very quickly, within 30 minutes, to come fix it. He talked me through every step of the process so I know what’s happening. My door lock ran out of battery and he efficiently replaced it with a new door lock. Other than the door issue, Ray was very professional, kind, and knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone else! Thanks Ray!"

"Wonderful service. Told me he was in the now business and showed up almost immediately. Fixed a lock that a previous locksmith had installed improperly. Efficient, reasonable and dedicated. Also, a very nice person"

"I would highly recommend this service! The locksmith came out on a busy weekend super quickly. They were friendly and were able to help me get back into a locked apartment. This is a trustworthy and reliable service!"

"Ray is a super nice guy! Came swiftly. At first, we called at the recommendation of our apartment's reception, but we wanted to explore our options. Ray warned us that other locksmiths would try to just drill the lock. We didn't believe him at first, but I called a bunch of other locksmiths, and he was right! He was able to open our door in less than five minutes. Would call again!"

"Fast and friendly in Boston"

"Ray showed up in no time! Maybe 15 minutes after my call he was there. Locked out in Cambridge at night and it ended up being no problem! Great guy"

"Great experience working with Ray! I got locked out of my common front door and apartment in Boston. Ray responded within 30 and got through both doors without any damage. Both doors are working!"
