Reviews

What customers say

Several customers praise quick, friendly service or a prompt, understanding response. One customer says a lost motorcycle key was made by the next morning, while another appreciated having car-key work done at their workplace with timing coordinated around meetings. One customer, however, reports rude service and an argument about making an appointment, and says the products were too expensive and the company did not stand behind them.

Customer Reviews

Aaron Saul

Fantastic quick and friendly service. Would recommend to anyone requiring these key-based services.

Robert Glazer

Too expensive and dont stand behind their made in China garbage products. Rude customer service. Started arguing with me about making an appointment. Takes monetary advantage of seniors and other vulnerable groups. Stay away.

Kevin Rogers

I didn’t end up needing the service, but was impressed with the quick response time and understanding provided.

Chris Loebach

Great experience. Professional and good value for the service. Came right to my work parking lot with all supplies needed to fix / program car keys. Communication around timing made it easy to meet him between work meetings. Would use this service again.

Amazing service! So quick and reliable. Texted them about a lost motorcycle key and they were able to make me one the next morning! It was very convenient and I’m extremely happy with the service! Thanks so much!
