Steve is the dude. Very easy to communicate with, knows exactly what he’s doing and even coordinated to have our 100 year old front door knob polished. Family owned business. Highly recommend.

So glad our friends recommended these guys! Called on Monday and they showed up on Monday! Got our vintage door handle/locks up and running in less than an hour by fixing and/or replacing multiple parts that had malfunctioned. Made us spare keys as well. 10/10 experience. Thank you!!!

There is a reason that Pasadena Lock Shop has been around for over ninety years. It's because they're experts at what they do!
This mid-century modern secretary had been locked, with no key. Steve Curren, the owner and 3rd generation of his family running the shop, looked at the photos I sent and noted that the lower part of the secretary was open. He then instructed me on how to remove the lock mechanism without damaging the wood, thinking that a key to the bottom, which I did not have, might open the top lock, something I hadn't even considered. I then brought the lock to his shop, where he looked at it and told me that if he had come to the house, he would not have been able to open the lock, but now having the lock in his shop, if I gave him a day or two, he could make key, that hopefully would open the upper lock as well.
And it did!

They really went far and beyond what any other company would . Really had way More patience than expected . Could have charged a lot more money for what they did for me with my out of town problems . Who does that these days? No one. Super knowledgeable, very respectable and friendly can't say enough good about my experience with This company .Sincerely Dan Chisler.

I had the pleasure of working with Steve to re-key all the locks in my home, install new locks, and service some of the existing ones. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding!
Steve arrived on time, was incredibly professional, and took the time to explain the process for each service. He worked efficiently, ensuring everything was secure and functional with great attention to detail. I appreciated how he went above and beyond, making sure the locks were in top shape.
The quality of service was exceptional, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend Steve and The Pasadena Lock Shop to anyone in need of reliable, top-notch locksmith services!
