Excellent service provider. Called for a customer's vehicle in our parking lot and they were here within 15 minutes and charged $65 for a Chevy Malibu. Awesomeness.

I highly recommend coming here! I visited Locksperts because I wanted to make a couple extra copies of my keys, just incase I were to ever lose them or any of them were to ever break. Their prices are very fair! I gave them my key to make two copies of, and then immediately handed them my credit card. I kid you not, when I tell you that by the time the credit card payment went through and my receipt printed, my two keys were finished!
As an added bonus, the staff there are super friendly and very knowledgeable.

Had an electronic keypad installed and was a great process. Someone was at my house 90 minutes after I called the whole thing took about 45 minutes and was reasonably priced. Thank you!
