Reviews highlight quick, accurate key duplication and reasonable prices compared with big-box stores. Many customers mention knowledgeable, friendly staff and effective rekeying work. A smaller set of reviews note delays in follow-up for estimates on larger jobs. Overall sentiment is strongly positive for in-shop service and straightforward locksmith needs.

Better, faster, and cheaper than the hardware store for getting a copy made of my keys. I will be going here for all lock and key needs.

Leave it to the professionals not Home Depot. I had my lock rekeyed. They are reasonably priced and very knowledgeable. Great staff and friendly. I am very happy with their specialized service.

I've used them many times (about 3 times a year) before and it's the first time I've been disappointed. Waited 2 months for an estimate I was told would come by end of week after the assessment visit. Called multiple times and they didn't have record of my calls. Was not handled in the best manner

Glenview key and lock was so kind and professional in helping me find a key to open up my steamer trunk! Highly recommended for antique keys.

JoAnn SkyWatcher on Glenview Key & Lock

Glenview Key and Lock is located on Park Blvd. on the right side (if you are going down the hill) in an older brick building with dark green tile. When I got close to the building I could see a quirky window display with a dinosaur and lots of green for St. Patrick's Day.

During the end of March, 2021, they were only allowing one customer in the store at a time. While I was standing outside looking at the window display, a man approached me asking what I would like. He took my key and made me a duplicate. Then when the customer inside left, I went in a paid for my key.

Besides making keys, if your home gets broken into they can come and assess how they can make your home more safe. They carry a wide range of hardware from simple/inexpensive to hardware made with stronger metals.

If you live in an older home with antique locks and you need help with skeleton keys—they have them. I went to them a while back to get a duplicate key for my e-bike. They were able to help me where some places that just make the more common keys wouldn't have been able to help me.

They also can make metal name tags for yourr dog's or cat's. I guess you could even have one made for yourself at Halloween if you were dressing up as a dog or cat.
