Call and asked a simple question to get a rude response and talked down to, with being treated like that I wouldn't recommend them to anyone and that's coming from someone with 24 years experience in the field

The ladies here are very nice people and no their business. I'll continue going to Gato for my keys and other related services.

If you need keys copied, you can certainly go to a big box and stand in line to use a kiosk, then watch as a robot cuts yours key at a painfully slow pace...
However, I would instead recommend you try these folks. We needed 5 copies made and were in and out in less than 4 minutes; the first one was being cut about 45 seconds from the time I opened the door! They're super friendly, polite, very competent, and the speed is incredible. All that, and the price is the same as the kiosk. Highly recommended to give them a try.

They have always helped us and they are really good at keys and locks. They take pride in their work and do the job right. I have twice now taken them bearly operational keys and they have been able to copy them and make them excellent. They try to fix your problem before selling you on something bigger. We have used them for 7-8 yrs since we moved here. I have never had any issues.
