Trustworthy and fast! We used Backus for our rental properties as well as our personal homes; even helped with a safe!

Programmed fob and cut new car key quickly and for a very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend.

Byron Alimbuyao on Backus Lock-N-Key

My very first time visiting today and the wonderful woman working there helped me get a new key fob for my car. My previous key fob was falling apart and was held on with duct tape. Literally took 5 mins and only costed me under $70. Biggest bonus for me was she was super sweet towards my 4 year old daughter and offered her candy. Thank you Backus for the incredible and genuine service.

Happy Halloween!

Dylan Nicholson on Backus Lock-N-Key

Horrible service way overpriced gave me wrong information. Charged me over $100 for a single car key that has no chip told me the wrong information saying that my vehicle doesn't require a chip. My vehicle won't start with the new keys and I have to pay another locksmith in order to come to the vehicle and program and cut new keys with chips. Was told by the new locksmith they shouldn't have charged me more than $50 for two keys with no chip, especially with it being at their location rather than mobile service. The new locksmith came out programmed All keys lost with two brand new keys with chip for $125 which is less than back is charged me for two keys without a chip. Don't waste your money. They're ripping you off
