Alan came to my home and changed out a couple locks and re-keyed some others.
He was very knowledgeable and prompt and his prices were great.
He went above and beyond when I asked him to come back the following day to do one more thing and did not charge me another trip charge.
I appreciate his professionalism, promptness and quality work.
If I ever need locksmith work done in the future , I would definitely use him again, highly recommend !
Our lock broke on the community mailbox bank of boxes. Contacted my HOA to repair and they said we were responsible. Having never needed a locksmith in the past, had no idea who to call. Read the reviews for Alan and gave him a call. He was out within hours and replaced the lock within minutes. I mentioned to him I spent more time worrying about getting the lock fixed than it took him to come out and do the repairs. Super nice guy, extremely professional and most importantly, great at his job! Rates were fair. I now will know immediately who I will call when I have another need for a locksmith! Definitely recommend The Scottish Locksmith! Thank you again for all your help!!
We hired Alan to replace handles on courtyard and utility gates. He's easily available by phone. Very communicative about scope of work, time needed and fee structure. An absolute joy to work with. He even came back after installation to do some touch-up painting, free of charge. He's the latest addition to my trusted vendor list. Thanks, Alan.
We moved into a new home a couple a weeks ago and while I had been meaning to call the locksmith and get them all changed, I had put off the task. One Sunday afternoon I remembered that I need to call the locksmith. I went to Yelp (it's my go-to these days) and The Scottish Locksmith was the top locksmith in the Poway area, so I called him. He was at my front door in 25 minutes and had my locks all changed and ready to go in about another 20 or so minutes. He was really nice, professional and very informative. If I need this service again, I would 100% use this guy!
I decided to hire Alan to help me with a "non-traditional" lock out. I had the key, but my main door lock broke and even with the key, I couldn't get in. Alan brought in his heavy duty saw and took care of the lock without damage to the door in no time. Alan, also patiently installed my new lock that I bought from Home Depot, which had some "new features" that made it non-trivial to install. Alan was meticulous in his installation and made sure everything was done correctly. Thank you Alan for a job well done, and I will definitely engage with your services again should the need arise.

We've used Alan to help us re-key every lock in our house ...twice. And at our old house too. He is the absolute best. Reliable. Trustworthy. Honest. Fair. And he knows his stuff. Easy decision if you need a locksmith. The Scottish Locksmith is top notch!

He responded immediately, we scheduled the next day and 5 locks were changed in about 30 minutes. He was really nice and a pro, will recommend him to all my friends.
Super sketchy , drove up in personal car , used a super cheap lock to replace on my mailbox and it never worked right. I had to hire a REAL locksmith to fix it after I paid this guy $130.
Wow, Alan is fantastic. I feel so secure now. My family's safety is my priority and it's Alan's priority as well.
He made several suggestions that saved me money. He will only install quality products that cost more initially but will actually save you money in the long run.

Very happy to have found Alan and the Scottish Locksmiths. Sent a request online and received a prompt response the next day. set an appointment for the following morning. He was on time, did the job efficiently and the price was fair. I wish more service providers were this easy to work with. Will use them for the next rekey.
Smooth and successful installation of door keypad lock set in my home. Prompt response and quick availability. Very happy.
Timely, professional, skilled and good follow through. Highly recommend. Would use again. Fair pricing.

Love the service and Allan, I had mistakenly contacted another lock company, that was supposed to be at my home today, called Allen he couldn't find me in his schedule of course. He is all about service and keeping clients happy. He does great work and now know who to call. The Scottish locksmith

Alan did a great job. This was our first time working with him. He's a nice human being and a perfectionist, but also on time and efficient. We're very happy with the job and the experience from top to bottom.

I was so bummed - I went there about two moths ago. Great service and I had three keys cut there on the DoNot Duplicate blanks. Not a single one of them worked. I did not take them back, some things are just not with my time and I'd wasted my time there already.
Great service, came out ASAP and opened our front door, very professional and communicative! Will definitely save their number and use them again.

I do not recommend this one. I saw they have rekey and gate lock service on yelp. But when the locksmith came to my house and the man told me that he only could unlock the gate for me. He could not rekey or change a new lock for me. Even the man is very kind and the service is good. It is not reasonable to spend $87 to a simple unlock.
Reliable, trustworthy, longtime local resident. We have utilized his services a couple times: he's an expert! Any key/lock issues- recommend the Scottish locksmith!!
I needed a locksmith for my parents' house in Poway. They were freaking out a little about having a front door without a working lock. I guess I didn't blame them. Well - I turned to my trusty Yelp people and found the Scottish Locksmith. I actually was going to call a few other people before I called them, but I dialed the number and hung up. And within seconds, Alan was calling me back asking if I needed some help. He was out of town, but the other locksmith Alan sent came quickly and was able to fix their lock by installing a new one. Fast, efficient service. About $125 to install a new lock on the door.
I accidently locked myself outside of my apartment on a holiday where my leasing office was closed... Luckily this place was open and nearby!
I called to have my door unlocked and the locksmith was at my house within 15 mins. And it took less than 5 mins to unlock my door. What a lifesaver!
If I should ever lock myself out again, I would call them up! Very friendly also.

The Owner, Alan, was responsive, prompt, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. He helped me on a Friday at 4pm without hesitation. He rekeyed 3 doors and made 4 sets of keys for me. Life saver! Will be using again and highly recommend.
Came by our house on a Sunday after our kids locked a bedroom door. He saved the day and was so nice he gave us the tool so if it ever happened again we could open it ourselves. Very professional and nice guy.

They are the real deal. Very professional, courteous and thorough. One of my door lock sets literally fell apart. I ordered a replacement and took it to their location to have it keyed the same as the rest of our locks. Reasonable pricing and fast service. It is my perception they do a lot of business offsite (they come to you), so you run the risk that no one will be in the shop when you drop by. However, a quick phone call will be answered and they will let you know when someone will be there if all are offsite helping others.
Alan is extremely professional and very friendly. Great work. He let me know all the options and let me choose based on what fit our needs and budget, then he gave his professional recommendation. Scottish Locksmith is our go-to place for key/lock/deadbolt needs!!! Thanks, Alan!!!

Wow! I was thrilled with the quick, competent service I received on a Friday afternoon at 4:30! I called at 4:15. I had a deadbolt that I couldn't install. Everything was done and to perfection. I would recommend these folks any day for any lock issue. Quick, pleasant, and thorough...oh, and did I mention the BEST price compared to other locksmiths I called?
I just moved to a new home and I wanted to rekey all of the locks. I looked on yelp and found The Scottish Locksmith had very good reviews. I called and Alan was able to do the job the next day. During the call he told me exactly what it would cost. He finished the job in about 2 hours and the cost was exactly as quoted over the phone. I highly recommend Alan for any locksmith jobs.
He was quick, efficient, polite and pretty reasonably priced. Good experience, i would recommend & would use him again if need arises.

On time. Honest. Friendly. First-class work at a fair price. My front door lock now works as well as it did when it was new 36 years ago, and maybe better. The Scottish Locksmith is now my go-to outfit for anything involving locks at my house.
Excellent. A quick online request and an almost instant call-back. On time and very reasonable pricing. We had something of a Frankenstein lock that The Scottish Locksmith was able to replace and update to specifications. Very helpful and informative. I'll definitely call upon him the next time I need anything lock related.
Owner really knows what he is doing. Great attitude. We are going to use him for all our rental properties, reasonable rates.

These guys installed some locks for my mom last year and she was very happy with the service. Even so, I always verify rep on Yelp and all looked good there too! I called and left a message after hours and Alan called me back immediately, wow! I had a bunch of work that needed to be done like re-keying locks and installing new knobs and dead bolts, he said no prob. He booked a time with me the very next day and showed up right on time!! He did a GREAT job in a timely manner and his pricing was on point too!! Overall I couldn't be happier with my experience with Alan and The Scottish Locksmith! They will be my go to guys for any locksmith needs from here on out for sure!!
Had a file cabinet with lost key - emergency. Alan came out promptly and also fixed a wiggly lock on out front door. The weather was rainy, but he was here in no time. He was very courteous and most pleasant. Everything works like a charm.

Wow! Quick response to my call and had everything taken care of in minutes. Will call again anytime
Excellent service, reasonable fee. Technician arrived on time, confirmed desired services and went to work promptly.
Why have a number listed that doesn't go to your store? If you're going to answer the line you should know what car keys you can program without me having to hang up and call an additional number. List the phone number to the location that knows the prices.

Wonderful, efficient, and high quality service! Alan was the gentleman that met us (as we are opening a new store and needed to rekey the locks to perform the work). I had called the day before to ask if he could meet us at 2:30 PM at our location and he even arrived early, was an absolute pleasure to talk and interact with and took the job seriously (still easygoing with a nice demeanor though!), and was prompt and efficient in his work- overall a great experience and reasonably priced and I would recommend Alan and Scottish Locksmith to anyone looking for this service!
Alan is friendly, knowledgeable, honest, timely, respectful, efficient, and conscientious. 5 stars!
After being quoted a ridiculous amount by other locksmiths,Mr.Morran saved the day! He worked so hard to get our frount door un locked. So very personal and kind. I cant say enough about how much we appreciate all his hard work.

Love that I can always look to Yelp for help and they were not wrong. We worked with Alan and he was amazing. Great customer service, fast service and super friendly. I had to get my company office rekeyed quickly and Alan made it happen for us! I will definitely use their services again for professional and personal locksmith services!

Just moved into our new house and needed a locksmith in the area. Found Alan through his great yelp reviews and he didn't disappoint. Showed up on time and was thorough in changing our locks. Offered recommendations for safety, and even was so kind to run to the store to pick up new door knobs for us (ours were broken), since we didn't know what we needed to get. Had a small issue with one of the locks a few days later - called Alan and he came by shortly after to check it out and repair. Really pleasant experience and would use him again, if needed.
We were on a serious hunt to replace the lock on our mailbox, after we found out through our local post office that they do not make or keep a copy of any mailbox keys, despite what the USPS website says. After an all day wild goose chase, we discovered that neither Home Depot, Ace, Walmart, Lowes, etc. carried the specific lock we needed for our community mailboxes. We stopped here right as the staff was closing up and about to lock up for the night. We told the locksmiths that they were our last resort before having to go online and pay double the price for an outdated lock. Luckily for us they had it!! We were so grateful that they actually were willing to stay open a few minutes later just to help us out. The staff here were very accommodating, very knowledgeable and professional despite of untimely arrival. We highly recommend this business!
I have used Alan in the past and have always enjoyed his professionalism, good personality and reasonable pricing. But this weekend he went above and beyond and I can't say enough nice things about him .
It was important I get some locks re keyed over a weekend and called him on a Friday, he was super sorry but he could not make it out to my new home until Monday due to work and personal weekend obligations. I understood and booked with a different company and texted Alan I would see him next time.
A few moments later he texted me and asked who I had hired for the next day. I told him and he knew that company were scammers and overcharged and used inferior products.
He was so concerned for me he changed his weekend plans to ensure it was he who changed my locks and not the scammer company. I was beyond grateful and will never use anyone else ever again.... Thanks Alan!

Alan gave me same day service to change the door locks throughout our house. He was efficient, polite, worked clean and neatly, and reasonably priced. I am very happy to have taken care of this so quickly and recommend him highly.

Alan is the best! Came out within the hour to rekey our house key. Quick, professional and schooled me on the Smart key locks! Thank you Alan! We will be using The Scottish Locksmith for all our locksmith needs.
Alan was available for same day service, even earlier than expected. He's very knowledgeable, polite, clean, and fairly priced.
All the other Yelp reviews led me to call "The Scottish Locksmith", aka, Alan. Had there not been so many wonderful reviews I wouldn't have called.
Thanks to everyone! Now I'm a very happy customer too.
Thank you so much for the rescue so I can get to work on time. I was worried if the shop was not open when I called early in the morning like 8:20 but so glad that you were.
I was really impressed with this company! Alan is quick to respond and quick to find availability to come over; he was also very professional, friendly and did an excellent job. He can fix any problem, too! Thanks for the service!
Thanks so much to Alan for his prompt friendly service in repairing my front door. He explained the problem and was able to make adjustments that solved the issue I was having. Many thanks for his courteous same day service at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend this company!

I've used Alan 3 times now to change our locks and he's awesome. Always on time, friendly, and reasonably priced. He's the only locksmith i'll ever need to call!
I locked myself out of the house and caught an Uber to work. At lunch, I called to schedule Alan's services at 5 pm after I got off work. He arrived on time with a friendly greeting in the pouring rain and got me into my home in less than 5 minutes! He's a true professional and excellent at what he does. You can't go wrong here folks! I'll call him for all my Locksmithing from here on out.
Got 4 house keys made, plus a few color rings and a tag. Friendly, fast service. My toddler grandson is a key lover, and the shop was kind enough to give a half dozen old keys for him. He loves them.
My wife was staying with her sister with our two kids (6 week old and two year old) and the front door shut on her as she was grabbing some bags from outside. She was locked out of the house and kids crying inside. I called these guys and within 30 minutes, they were at the house and my wife was let inside. 10 Stars if I could and very affordable. Give them a call! (My wife said they were really nice as well). Thanks again guys!

We had to replaced the hardware on our front door. This included the plates (inside and out) and lock. Alan special ordered the hardware required and installed it. He is a very knowledgeable locksmith and has great customer service.
Alan (the owner) was just here, rekeyed 3 kwikset locks for me and repaired a latch. In and out in about 20 minutes, and great work. Quick, affordable and honest. Also he's a nice guy - even the dog liked him. 5 stars.
Alan was easy to get in touch with, easy to schedule an appointment with, scheduled a same day appointment, and provided prompt and friendly service when changing my mailbox lock!
Honest, on time, professional friendly and fast. This is what all small businesses should be like.
I've got my locksmith for as long as I reside in San Diego now.
Alan was extremely responsive. He rekeyed six locks and provided us new keys in just under a half hour. He has done locksmith work for my elderly mother as well and she cannot say enough good things about him. He is very reasonably priced and could not be nicer. As far as I'm concerned, there is no other locksmith you should bother with.
Alan was great! This was our first time using this company. He picked up the phone quickly and was very kind and knowledgeable about the issues we were having. I was impressed that he was able to figure what kind of door and lock we had with just the vague description I gave him over the phone. He was on time, fixed our locks to our business quickly and even checked the back lock. This company will for sure be my Locksmith going forward. 5 star service all the way!!
Based on Yelp reviews, I called Alan to change the locks on the front door. He was very responsive and professional! I would highly recommend Alan!
My fiancé and I were having great difficulty getting in to our condo with our keys. Our landlord was not able to come out until the following business day and asked us to call a locksmith. I google searched and found this company. And boy am I glad that I did! The gentleman that answered the phone calmed my nerves and said that he would be there in 20 minutes. I was very relieved! He was very prompt and let us know exactly what the problem was with the lock. He made us new keys and changed out the lock completely in about 20 minutes. He was very professional and very kind! I will definitely be doing business with them in the future. Thank you for your help!

Alan did an excellent job for me. I called him because I needed my entire front door hardware replaced on my home. Within an hour, Alan was at my house and were were selecting hardware. Within 24 hours the job was done. Excellent service all the way around!
I lost the key to a lock and these guys unlocked it in minutes for a very reasonable fee. Other locksmiths wanted to charge all kinds of extra fees. This locksmith was good to their word and unlocked the lock at the price estimated. They could have taken a lot longer and charged me more, but they didn't.
Alan, The Scottish Locksmith is honest, friendly, reasonably priced and very professional. He was on time, fast, and communicated all the work that he was going to complete before starting. I felt very comfortable having him in my home and confident that I hired the best person for the job.I added a few deadbolts and had several locks re-keyed, everything works smoothly. I would highly recommend hiring The Scottish Locksmith, he's the best!

We needed our locks changed for good measure after purchasing our new home. I called The Scottish Locksmith, and he was able to come the next day. Fast, courteous, and thorough. Price seemed reasonable, I just don't have anything to compare it to, to say for sure. All around great service.
My daughter needed to have a couple of issues addressed, looked on Yelp, saw that Alan had a terrific rating and asked me to set up an appointment. From the initial phone call, I could tell that Alan is professional, courteous and accommodating. He came out the same day and, for only a house call charge, fixed both problems AND diagnosed a problem I have at my own home in Torrance! He said if any of my daughter's problems reoccurred, he could gladly come back at no charge. This tells me he stands behind his work, a true rarity nowadays. He is great and I recommend him highly. BTW, he also owns a lock and key shop!
Todd made a replacement key for my RV lock and it is perfect. The key cutter shops do not have the means to do this work. Good work and good customer service. Thanks Todd.
First I contacted a guy off google. His website said starting at 29.00 for lock replacement. Well guess what he tried to charge for a front door simple lock replace? 295.00. The guy advertise as a Poway business but had no building in poway. To top it off he had no truck pulled up in a car with a tool bag. After he left I called Alan at Scottish Locksmith. Alan new all about guys like this. Alan fixed my front door lock and went the extra mile to make sure I could still use my same key. Price was more than fair. Thanks!

Due to great Yelp reviews, I choose The Scottish Locksmith to rekey the locks in my mom's new house. Alan came out the next day and did a great job. We highly recommend him.
Thank you Scottish locksmith - we needed our new house's locks re-keyed. They came out same day to survey and provided a quote on the spot. The locks were in and installed two days later. Great service, reasonably priced.

As a Property Manager I relay heavily on a good, reasonably priced and efficient locksmith...Alan Morran and his staff at Scottish Locksmith are exactly that and I would recommend them to anyone needing a good locksmith!!
Reasonably priced, prompt, clean-cut---all around good service.
I needed to have a couple deadbolts installed and the locks re-keyed for my house. My phone call to The Scottish Locksmith was promptly answered and I was able to get an honest estimate over the phone of the work I needed done. I made a next-day appointment and Alan was on-time, professional and explained the work he'd do. I'm very happy with the work he did. His prices were very reasonable and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his work to family or friends.
I had the Scottish Locksmith (Alan) install a new door lock set at my home. He was flexible with his schedule and right on time. Because I changed the scope of work a bit, he offered to make the run to the hardware store right then. He was very polite and professional. This was my first experience using a locksmith so I can't comment on the pricing but it seemed fair and I would recommend his service and use it again.
Alan Morran was an absolute professional. He came by on time and did the re-key of my property very quickly. His rates for the work done were excellent! I would recommend this gentleman highly.
