I love this place! Enrique is super nice and helpful. I was able to get a copy of my car key fob (with the buttons included) in less than 5 minutes. Cheap, fast, great quality. 100% recommend!
Enrique was very helpful, would definitely recommend this place if you're in a pinch and need a new key! Support local businesses!
Enrique was very kind and there are a lot of key options. Quick work and good service.
Enrique was super friendly and fast. Tons of options and he was really helpful. Most importantly, the keys WORK and he was able to cut them right away. Easy parking and like that I didn’t have to go into a hardware store or mall to get it done. Quick, friendly. Recommend!
I needed a reprogramming service for my dodge charger, I was attended by Enrique and he was very polite, respectful and quick to help me out. Answered all my questions and all my doubts, while ensuring all functions worked and there was no issues on the spot. Took very good care of me definitely a great and welcoming place, thankyou Enrique.
Enrique was a great help! I needed 6 different key copies and he was very nice, professional and quick! Definitely come here if you need some copies, there are many to choose from and he has other services available!
Enrique was great! Helped me some my problems and gave me the service I was looking for! Will definitely come back in the future
Reilable and speedy service!
The staff Enrique, was super friendly, the service was quick, and the price was great! I’ll definitely come back again. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Picked the wrong key designe and Enrique swapped it free of charge. Great Place
Made a new key for my 2007 Chevy Silverado, and without issue, got it done super fast. He’s a super straightforward guy and offered me a great price too. He’s my new go-to guy
The best and easiest experience! The staff is amazing, great customer service, and very welcoming. Not to mention their pricing... REALLY AFFORDABLE! I ended up getting a colored key for less than what those in-store machines charge. It literally took like 3 minutes to get a copy of our key. 10/10 definitely recommend! We will be coming back for sure!
Great quick service
Enrique was very helpful. quick service
Great service and quick! Keys done by Enrique.
Two guys who work here are super nice, knowledgeable, and quick as hell. They rekeyed 2 door locks I brought and 6 new keys all in like 15 minutes
Enrique is very fast! And he has excellent costumer service skills!!!
Had to get my keys copied…5 of them done in 3 minutes! Super quick and easy! Prices are better than going to a kiosk and the keys are better quality so I recommend going here and supporting a small business!
Great selection of keys and accessories. Amazing customer service
Excelente servicio, muy amables
I cannot recommend this place enough, I have been putting off getting the battery in my car, keys and new house keys made for months at this point. They were not only extremely fast but made it easy to create new house keys copies and changed out the battery on my key fob. I was done in less than 3 minutes!!! Also…
Woohoo!! Such an awesome locksmith! He saved the day and helped me tremendously when I was locked out. And it took him literally 2 minutes for him to do. I’m so glad I found him! I’m definitely coming back :-) And you should pay him a visit-he’s fast and really knows what he’s doing!!
So easy and fast!!! Super friendly too .
Great service and was in and out in less than 2 minutes.
Super fast service! Very friendly and affordable! Thanks!!

Great service! Very convenient and was quick. Got a car key battery replaced and a copy of a house key. Was in and out in about 5 mins!
Always awesome service. Very reasonable prices. My go to place for keys and lock related services.
Great service I’ve been coming here for years. They even duplicated some of my car keys, which was a third of the price of the dealership just got an extra house key and Enrique was the employee that helped me. Very fast and efficient with a good price.
This place is the best!!! I’ve gotten multiple keys made, and they literally do it in minutes. They’re super friendly and I highly recommend! Great price!

Best location to get your keys done. Enrique was very professional and helpful. Will come back again if I ever need any keys made.

Been here a couple times to make a bunch of keys. Great and fast service. Keys always made right. Prices are great as well.
Enrique is awesome - quick and knowledgeable. Affordable prices. Can’t recommend these guys enough
Fast and friendly service. Thank you for my keys.
Soooo quick. & very kind.
The owner was very helpful and friendly.
You go to a locksmith for a key re-copying as opposed to a kiosk at Home Depot for the extra customer service & personal help. I found LA Best Locksmith to be mean, annoyed when I asked questions, and unwilling to help me select different key options to help me differentiate. Now I have to go somewhere else to fix their sloppy work.
Jacob did an incredible job and was incredibly kind. He arrived promptly and saved the day by helping us get a new key since the old one got locked. I highly recommend Jacob!
