Lost the key/fob to my Subaru Outback 2011. Called between 9:30 and 10am and Chief showed up at 11:00. It was super fast and professional and so much easier than I anticipated! Highly recommend.

Quoted me $220-240 for getting into my car at 3:45 am despite saying they don’t charge more for nights or weekends with a 45 minute wait. Second place I called was $120, and the third did it for $100 flat and was here within 15 minutes. Absolute trash and wouldn’t recommend, call around- these people are shady and over priced. Highly recommend calling around because everybody will give you a better price than these guys.

We needed a broken combination lock removed from a uhaul box. Zakai gave us a 20-30 minute eta immediately upon our initial call and regular updates about arrival time. He was here before 2 other locksmiths even called me back. Had the right size bolt cutters for the job and had it off in 10 minutes! Very friendly and personalable, great service! 10/10 would call again!

Fast response (came out within an hour or so of calling), arrived on time and got a key copied and functional in less than 30 min. Professional service and new key works great. Very satisfied with service.
Update: while they did come out quickly, 5 min after they left I did a check of both keys that was more than just quickly start and turn off the car. Check transmission light was now on. They said not a result of their work, but I took to the mechanic (pro auto in sccappoose) and transmission control module programming error code came up that is a known issue with incorrectly programmed keys. Asked to resolve with and have had no meaningful response or resolution. Dissapppointing.

My guy Chief came and got me a brand new working key fob for my Acura in less than an hour. My original key was slightly bent but he was able to work things out and fair pricing for him to come all the way to me
