Jesus Mendez

Was recently being locked out of my car because of a really worn key. They managed to make a copy of my worn key to its original shape. They were super quick. Price was very fair. Would definitely comeback if I ever needed keys of any sort

Michael Bernier

I had a small security box that my wife had dropped and bent the key. After attempting to straighten it up, I wasn't able to insert the key at all. The gentleman at Howard Safe & Lock, was able to insert the key and lubricated the lock. It now works like a charm. They were fast, courteous and professional! Will continue to call on them in the future.

Griff Hollar

These guys are great! My spare bmw key fob got destroyed and I needed to transfer the internals to another one that I'd ordered off of Amazon. I tried some other locksmiths without any success. I walked into Howard Safe & Lock and they fixed the issue in less than 10 minutes and didn't even charge me for it. The fact that they could fix it so fast was amazing; I was starting to think I needed to order a new one from the dealer. The fact that they wouldn't even accept payment in this day and age of everyone nickel and diming you to death shows their integrity as businessmen. It was a breath of fresh air and made my day!

What a great experience yesterday at Howard's! These days kindness is paramount and the young man who duplicated my key was exactly that. I highly recommend this business for your key duplicating needs.

I came in with my Honda key and a blank key around 11am. The new key was already in my hand in under one minute. I was in the store a total of 3 minutes. On top of that, the owner didn’t even charge me. Honestly this has made my whole week. I’d recommend this place to everyone and will only come here in the future. Businesses that are so polite and kind are rare these days. Thank you again sir.
