Great service good to go to someone who knows more than just cutting keys. Took some keys to be made that no could get to work and they did. Plus Martin kept me laughing as he did my keys. Good old fashion service where they treat you right. read more

I called this place at 4:00 and was told it would be $75 to get my car unlocked and that they would arrive in 45 minutes. When I hadn't heard anything by 5:25, I called again and was told they would find out what happened. When I hadn't heard anything by 6:00, I called someone else who gave me a cheaper quote anyway and I cancelled A1, whose name should be more like Z26. read more

Today was the worst, but these guys helped me out in a big way. My key broke off from the fob and went missing, nowhere to be found. Frank came by where I was at to assist and take what he needed back to the shop to see what they can do. A little while later he drove back with new key and I'm all set to go! These guys are wonderful and a much better alternative to dealerships who wanted to charge me $600 + towing fees. Save yourself the stress and call A1 first. read more

I went to A1 locksmith's to have a key fob programmed and cut, I had purchased the blank OEM key fob from a reputable online dealer, after Martin stopped talking to a friend he asked me what do you need as I showed him my key fob I couldn't say a word as he started telling me that it has a 85% possibility of failure because it's not an OEM part, I asked how he knew so he opened it and proceeded to tell me it was a refurbished one, he showed me a lighter color for the printing on the interior parts then began to berate me for buying on line and not supporting him because he is local and has a storefront, Martin stated that his fobs are OEM but not mine he mentioned Bezos and said he is ruining business, I said I didn't buy from Amazon I purchased from OEM car key mall they supply dealers with OEM keys then stated he never herd of them? I was in need of this key so I had him recode and cut took about 15 mins. Charged me mind you I brought in the parts he charged me $145.00 labor and a lesson on how I'm not helping local business, he showed me one of his supposed OEM key fobs no different than the one I had him program. I sure won't recommend this business but if you do go to him don't take your own part unless you want to be schooled on the ruination of his business and pay for his sermon. As I turned to leave he said good luck I said you to. read more

Great place! The owner is funny! Very efficient and quick to respond! I've had my keys made here for over 10 years

Went in to get a new key for my 2000 Lexus RX300. They had to order key. Went in they told me I had a bad relay or something and they could not program the key but they had already cut the key without knowing they could program it so they charged me the full price of $200 + and told me to go to Dick's automotive to get my car fixed. I asked Dick's to fix my door locks he said he needed two keys I said I didn't have two keys, he shoved some paper work at me and said sign here. I said but you can't fix it so never mind. I went to my mechanic and he sent me to another locksmith. he progammed the key with no problem but said the remote did not work properly. I went back have A1 order a working key remote. He tested and said it was fine and said something was wrong with my car. I asked the owner if he felt good about charging me full price for doing almost nothing. The owner has a king size ego and I will never go there again. read more

If I could I would give 0 stars. Watch a joke of a "business". I don't even know where to begin with this company. They are very awful at communication and can't seem to get their prices right. One person saying one thing and someone else saying another. I would NOT recommend this place to ANYONE. read more

this guy lost my very hard to find 1971 datsun 510 locks and ignition. ive called him about 10 times now and i keep hearing the same thing. ( give me your number and name and i will call you back!!!) well its been a year now and now the owner is telling me that somone came in and picked up my locks. so i continue to call and now im being told he will continue to look. well it LOOKs like im assed out! thats what it looks like. thanks, now ima spend over $400 dollars to re purchase all new locks for my car. read more

Great place , staff is so funny and if you're looking for special fun keys they have hundreds , well it seemed like that many.

zero stars is what I would rate this company. my husband called this company about 5 days before they Finley had time to come by and open our safe that the combination had stopped working to. they jerry ringed it so only one number had to open it. charged us over a hundred dollars. soon after they had left my husband tried to open it again and it would not open. he tells me this and says he will have to call them back. but he tried once more and it opened. my husband passed away about 3 weeks later unexpectedly. Two days after his passing I needed his social security number to make arrangements. all our personal information was in the safe. I tried to open the safe with the number and it would not work. called the company and explainEd the situation to them. said they were sorry and would send someone out. long story short, 7 days later and a personal visit to the shop and only promises someone would be there soon.I called at 9a.m. Tuesday morning, same promise. I called at 11:15 a.m. same promise. I waited till 2 p.m. and I called again. same promise. I finally said we paid you for a service and it probably would only take 5 minutes to show me what I am doing wron g and he says he is not sending his service man for free. long story short I called another lock company in Fresno out and they said they would be by in an hour. They showed up ,opened my safe and we're done in 15 minutes. charged me $80 and I was very happy. 20 minutes after the other company I called guess who showed up. After 7 days and a dozen calls to them I had to make. never again will I use A1 lock and key or Ever recommend them! The story is alot more detail than I have written here. when I called the other company they said they have gotten many other stories of the same kind about A1 lock and key. Just because you live in Clovis,I would never call them! read more

Great experience with both the owner and employees who came out to our house to replace our locks. I needed someone quickly and they were out at my house the next day with superb customer service. read more

I've been meaning to copy our house keys for a while and finally did. I chose A1 because of the reviews and was prepared to wait when I got there but the wait wasn't bad, maybe one person ahead of me. They were quick and I had my keys in no time. Thanks for the great service! read more

I needed a remote key for my truck. The dealer wanted nearly $400 to make one and program it. I got it at A-1 for $92. The owner is an awesome guy to boot! Extremely knowledgeable, efficient and friendly. This is where I will always go for any locksmith needs from now on. Clovis is very lucky this business is located here. read more

If I could give them a -5 I would. I wanted to use a locksmith in Clovis, but A1 Lock & Key was terrible. After several telephone calls an appointment was scheduled for them to come to the house on a Saturday at 9:00 a.m. No show, no call. I called them and was told, "I'll call you back." They never did! read more

I walked in to A1 Lock & Key largely by coincidence, but I will be coming here for everything lock/key related from now on, regardless of distance. Could not have been more impressed with the service. I really liked the workers in the shop - it has a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and they all bantered with each other the entire time I was there; it had me cracking up the whole time. I came in to get a duplicate of my car key, which was old and worn. Instead of simply duplicating it, they proceeded to re-construct the original key, with about 2 hours of painstaking effort - they gave me a key that was as good as a brand new original. Considering that I had bought the car used, and never had access to an unworn original, that was worth quite a bit to me. After all that work, they only charged me $8.50 for the key. I was flabbergasted. They didn't try to pressure or upsell me at all, just took care of the job I wanted done, and at a great price too. read more

Needed my car key fixed and they did it fast and pretty cheap. I went to another place before them that tried to charge me to make a whole new key for nearly triple of what they charged me. Good customer service and professionalism. Definitely would recommend to anyone! read more

Used to be AG Lock & Key - now A1 Lock & Key. Great & quick service! Have visited other locations around area and there was a bit of a wait. They made my order right on the spot & for good price. read more

Broke my Truck Key in the door lock, called these guys on a Saturday morning and they serviced me within an hour. Awesome service, lots of products in-store, and also makes mobile calls. I was able to bring my truck in to the shop and got an awesome deal. Definitely recommend A1 Lock and Key in Clovis, CA. read more

I called A1 after talking to a dealer about getting a replacement key that had been stolen for my daughters car. I let them know the dealer quoted me $500.00 Days later I got a call saying they could do it and it would be less than the dealer quote. I then called at least twice a week trying to set up having this done. I was told I will call you back every time, but they didn't. I asked over and over how much and was told again less than the dealer. This went on for 5 weeks. Today they were finally going to program the new key. Great! they went out, and the key works. I was told $349. Great, except no. I then get a call back saying that amount was wrong and now they want $799.40 for their service which by the way included only one key. This is not ok. I just called a lawyer to see what my options are. read more

Be careful who you deal with at this place! I went to them to get the lock of my wooden jewelry chest fixed. The chest is so special to me because I was planning to give it to my fiancé on our wedding night end of April. It took them 2 months to fix it and when I went to pick it up, they not only didn't fix it at all I came to find out BUT also lied to me that it was fixed!!! If you're calling for service, don't ever have Chris who works there help you. read more

Excellent shop that knows what they're doing. Came in with a key for a motorbike that worked but it was filed down and almost unrecognizable. They were able to somehow figure out the original key code from looking at the filed down key and made me a new key that worked perfectly! Very professional and they definitely have my business read more

I have used A1 Lock & Key twice since moving to the Central Valley. They are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They have keyed my house, taught me to program my electronic deadbolt, and were able to make a copy of my family's old cabin key when no one else could (The Home Depot and Lowe's). I'm no longer going anywhere else for lock and key service. read more

Awesome service! Owner very knowledgeable. He helped me get a new key for my father in laws older truck with no problem. Will definitely go back and definitely recommend this business. read more

The owner/operator Marty was very knowledgeable and helpful. I went to his store located in downtown Clovis. He fixed my car door lock which had been punched/broken by thieves and re-keyed a new GMC lock I had purchased online. He was fast and reasonable. I will definitely return. read more

Martin was super helpful, friendly, and very affordable. I will definitely go back for all my lock needs.

This guy is a crook. Charged me $10 to re-key a kwikset smart key. I didn't realize it was this type shame on me but a locksmith should have. I should have known when he didn't write a receipt. I try to support local Clovis businesses but you have to be honest. read more

I can't thank Mike enough for his service! I called him at 11pm on a Monday night when I locked myself out of my apartment. Having exhausted literally all other resources(including three other "24 hour" locksmiths) he picked up within the first few rings and he was here within 10 minutes. The actual unlocking took all of 2 minutes. There was 0 damage to my door or lock, and I did not have to change the locks or get it rekeyed. Mike's service was professional, efficient, and a fair price. I hope I don't run into this issue again, but if I ever do this is the first number I am calling! 10/10! read more

Staff was super friendly! They cut my car key fast for a really good price. Highly recommend coming here! 10/10

I initially tried to copy some keys at one of those machines. It didn't accept my key, and I needed copies asap despite the holidays. I got out my phone, and this establishment was nearby and open! I have nothing but good things to say about this store. I noticed some added details to my keys that I really appreciated. The owner is friendly and clearly knows his business. read more

Honest. Kind. Affordable. That is the service I received by this kind owner. It's been more than 10 Months ago, but i will be a customer for life. Thank you for your help with out car ignition switch and new keys. God bless you richly. read more

Clean professional, arrived on time and quickly finish the job. Highly recomand to anyone.

Only 5 stars? I would rate higher, if I could. Marty has got to be one of the most honest merchants with whom I've ever had the pleasure of doing business. I had a problem with my truck ignition key...it was VERY difficult turning the ignition. Marty said the key is probably just worn. He can make a new key to match the original or...get this..."just try your other key". Took awhile to track down the other key and it works like new! Marty...you lost a sale...this time, but have reaffirmed my position that Clovis Old Town merchants are the best and A-1 Lock & Key will always be my "go to guy" for any needed assistance. Thanks! read more

Great same day service. Needed locks rekeyed and had it done quickly and for a fair price. Would definitely use this company again.

Marty and his staff at A1 Lock and Key are second to none with their experience, knowledge and customer service. Being an active Realtor in the Fresno County I've called upon Marty on numerous occasions for his expertise and have never been let down. Efficient and effective I highly recommend A1 Lock and Key and thrilled to have their thriving business here in Clovis! read more
