Wow, I arrived at work and locked my keys in my car. I got onto yelp, found AA Express and with all of the positive reviews, called them first. Before 8am, they answered the phone and it is now 8:27 and I'm back in my office with my car keys in hand. SUPER FAST and the tech couldn't have been nicer or made me feel safer. I will put them into my contacts just in case. Wonderful, you won't go wrong!! read more

These guys are great. Highly recommended. Locksmiths and key and remotes for your car. Some background: I bought a 2000 Cadillac a few months ago and it only came with one key and one remote. I knew the key and remote would be expensive since it had a chip in it and it needed to be programed. Every dealership I talked to were kind of rude, as if my business was not really needed, or more like they knew I needed them, so why bother being helpful. Even worse though, was how little they knew about my car. No one I spoke to seemed to know for sure how to program my remote, none had the key in stock, etc. I called AA and could tell they knew what they were talking about. Once I confirmed that they had the key and remote and that they would be there (sometimes everyone is out on a call) I drove over and they had the key and remote ready for me in 20 minutes. They had a nice waiting area for me to wait in and they were just as nice as can be. This is the way these things are supposed to work. People who are helpful, welcoming and competent. Avoid the dealership and call them when you need car keys or are locked out of your car. Support these kind of specialized shops. read more

I brought in a set of keys for a motorhome, and they were all different. I got home and everything was working perfectly and I really like these guys. read more

I had to get my car unlocked because my key fell apart and the fob part wouldn't open the door and the key part was sitting on the front seat. Robert was there in short order and even told me that AA Express could re-house my old key and make a duplicate for hundreds less than quoted at the dealership. We went to the business and within 25 minutes had two brand new keys. Amazing service and great savings to boot. read more

These guys are the real deal...have the right products at super fair pricing. Quick too! I have had my key fob replaced a few times and they are awesome with quick call backs. Really happy I found someone I can trust! read more

I have nothing but good things to say about these guys. I've gotten car keys and key fobs replaced here twice. My car has a chip key, which is always expensive, but at least here it's half the cost of getting them done at the dealership. Friendly and fast, I highly recommend this shop if you need your fancy car keys replaced for a good price. read more

A pleasure to deal with. I needed a second key for a new used car and they cut and programmed one in about 10 minutes. I purchased the fob from elsewhere and AA Express had no problem using it. The individuals I spoke with were polite and easy to deal with. I'll definitely be back if and when I need another key. read more

These guys are wonderful. When the magic key fob for my car died, I had a couple of spare blanks I had bought from Amazon but I had no idea what to do to make them functional. I called a nearby locksmith and when he found out my car was a 2000 Passat he told me to call Express Locksmith instead. I called them up, asked a few questions (including price), and headed over to see them. Within 45 minutes they had not only programmed my new fobs and cut the proper keys for me, they had also reprogrammed my old fob, which is now working perfectly again. Their charges were extremely reasonable and they were knowledgeable and pleasant, easy to do business with. They even gave me a discount when I showed my AAA card! Very highly recommended. read more

These guys are my go to time and time again as they give not only the best deal in town on fobs whether an extra set, to repair or replace, their customer service is unmatchable! !! The helpfulness, knowledge and desire to go the extra mile to assure satisfaction is something rarely seen. read more

We needed a key for our Ford Transit. We were happy to see a fleet of their work vans, also Ford Transits, parked outside.

We had a friend lock himself out of his truck today with a dog inside. I called a few places and either a voicemail or no one available. Then I called Gresham Locksmith and they were 2 hours out but referred me to AA express. I called them and the guy who answered the phone said the next available locksmith is 45mins to an hour out.(it was 4:10 and they close at 5 i think) That was good news and he said only $85.... 30 minutes later, the guy who I spoke to on the phone came to our rescue. He said the next locksmith was going to be longer than they thought, so he rushed out to do it himself.. Pretty amazing... I don't do reviews often.. but this place is worth it for sure. read more

Called a week ahead of time to check on price. Two keys for a minivan off amazon. Saved me a ton. I run the risk of them not working, but as the guy mentioned same can happen with the expensive keys you buy from the dealership. It was quick, I paid, and am a happy customer with two keys working! read more

5 Star, that's what I give these folks! They did the job I needed and more!! Thanks Aaron!!! I recommend AA Express for your vehicle key needs and will be telling any one I know who needs the same service to go here!!!! Thank again, Pamela Nelson read more

I have nothing but amazing things to say about this business!!! Unfortunately, my already broken key had gotten stuck inside the ignition of my car and would not budge when I tried to turn the car on. This happened the day before I left to study abroad! Luckily I found AA Express Locksmith and decided to get my car towed to them. They had initially quoted me $575 (still half of what the dealership would have asked for) to fix everything including my key. In just a few hours they made a new key for me and had solved the issue without even having to replace the ignition. They also went ahead and charged AAA for my key replacement! We walked out thinking we had to pay $500+ and walked out paying nothing!!! Such a relief! I am so thankful I went with AA Express Locksmith! They are an efficient and honest business and I will definitely be going back in the future! read more

Awesome service, quick to respond to my AAA request for a lock out service. The dude was in and out in less than 5 min. Thanks AA. You guys rocked it solid! read more

Went there to get 2 keys cut for my car. Great deal since I got 2 done and they cut them from VIN, not copied off of your old key. $20. Both worked perfect and I was going to program them myself. (Bear) very nice employee said he didn't think I could but I gave him info.. Said he had to do it himself to believe it. Didnt even charge me for the extra effort. Now I have multiple keys for next to nothing. Ill be going back if I ever need anything else. read more

Prompt, professional, and reasonably priced! AA Express has helped me out twice now. First time around they managed to make keys for my obscure JDM Toyota. Not an easy task. They performed flawlessly. Today their technician Ryan came and helped me with a lockout I was up and running in a few minutes. read more

As a successful business owner, it is always great to see a company who has the same integrity we work and strive for every day. Shops like these aren't afraid to turn down business. They tell you the entire truth up front, and hide nothing. Pricing is amazing, and the staff is trust worthy and reliable. I couldn't ask more from a business. read more

I was referred to AA from another locksmith company in Portland - they copied the key to a 2013 Corolla for half the cost of what the dealership quoted me. They were fast and professional. Definitely 5 stars. They also let me know it would most likely STILL be under what the dealership quoted me for a copy if all keys were lost and they had to make a new one from the VIN. Keeping their card and number. read more

The gentlemen in the shop were wonderful. I had been looking for my car key in my house for 3 hours when I finally gave up. AA Express was the second place I called. Initially my quote was 150. The gentleman asked me all kinds of questions to see what I really needed. I decided to go with just a standard key and not a fob because the key is in my house. I was able to ride over on my bike, I saved some money because I could come to them. They were very helpful and nice. I am hoping I don't need anther key but if I do, I know where I am going. read more

Highly recommend this shop for any locksmith work you need done. I had two keys programmed, and third key cut. Customer service was on point, and they were fast! Even put the logo stickers on my keys. Great shop! read more

This is the best service in town. Took my lock for my RV in they hand cut a key but it was still a bit rough they ask me to leave it I came back before closing they said there was no charge because it was not sliding in smoothly . Well it works good enough to lock my tools. I can't tell you how many times I paid top dallor and got crap, old school skill old school service thanks guys read more

We bought a used Honda Fit Sport that only came with one key fob. We decided to save some money by buying a replacement key fob online and have it cut by AA express (instead of being the blank key at twice or 3x the price from a locksmith). Without checking that the fob we bought would work with our car, he cut it first and then told us that we had bought the incorrect key fob. It was fine that he charged us $50 for it, bc the mistake was ours, but when we asked if we could put that toward a credit toward getting the correct keys recut after straightening that out with the inline vendor, we were told that we'd have to pay the entire $50 again. That is super bad customer service, because I only get a key fob cut every 5 or 10 years but they do it every day so they should have made sure that we had the right key before cutting it. since the work they did took a total of 10 minutes, it's also bad customer service to tell me that my $50 is a total waste of money and I'll have to pay ANOTHER $50 for 10 more minutes of labor when I bring in the correct key fob... I am a self-employed small business and I cannot imagine providing such bad customer service. Needless to say, we went elsewhere to program the correct key. read more

These guys are total professionals and were very patient. After losing my keys in the woods, I called around to try to get a smart key made. Toyota wanted the standard $$$$. I called half a dozen places and finally settled on AA. I had tons of questions since I learned so much about my key during this ordeal and they were great at answering and reanswering my questions. Highly recommend this place if you are ever in a key bind for their professionalism and fair pricing. read more

very honest establishment. Had a chance to make some extra money from me, but chose integrity over profit. Kudos!

Really helpful staff at this place, I was able to get my key issue sorted out and with my AAA it was free.

There service was impeccable feom start to finish. They actually made locking my keys in my truck a positive experience. Ryan was professional and efficient. Thank You! read more

My 94 chevy caprice is terrible to work on, but through the knowlege and persistence they have, they got me a new ignition and set of keys. These guys will get the job done! read more

Was quoted a reasonable price ($80) to make a duplicate key for my 2008 Honda Fit! Small business owners with integrity. :)

My car was broken down due to a problem with my ignition and key. I got it towed to this place the next day. They fixed it within a few hours and called me with updates. Abe even threw in an extra ignition key and made it so my key opens my trunk (did not before). They even helped me figure out a way to pile my bike in my trunk (gave me some cords, etc.). These guys are really nice, professional, and quick. I would definitely go back to them. read more

If you like to wait on hold and have your time wasted - Call them! I contacted them through my roadside auto assistance company as they are a preferred vendor. The guy answering the phone who's name starts with a "J" instantly put me on hold because there was a baby locked in a car - I was ok with that that's a legitimate need to put someone on hold. About 30 seconds, no big deal again I fully understand that. Once he came back he heard my request to have a key cut for my VW. without saying anything he put me on hold and called the dealer. When he returned 2 minutes later, I told him I already had the blank and I only needed it cut. I wanted to set up a time for me to stop by for the service. He put me on hold again, and came back to say they only did mobile service... Okay I'm ok with that, I asked when? He put me on hold again. He then said I'd have to tow the vehicle in... I informed him I had a key, I just wanted a spare and the vehicle was mobile and I'd just drive it in whenever they were available. Basically "J" was figuring out he couldn't make any mark up on parts, towing and just wanted what should have been a simple key cut. Although it is one of those fancy laser cut keys and would still be a $100 sale he basically told me it wasn't worth their time. Lets keep it real - You're a locksmith you deal in small sales, treat your potential customers with respect. I called my auto assistance company to report my experience as well read more

Great service and good pricing. Had to get a key cut for a car I just bought as well as coded, was all done on the spot. In and out fairly quickly, would highly recommend. read more

Jason was super friendly. He Was fast and efficient. I would recommend AA Express to anyone! Thank you so much for saving our day!

I recently did an online purchase for a replacement remote key less FOB for my '99 Pontiac Grand AM. Turns out, my make and model required a professional re-pro from a locksmith or dealer. I did some research and found this place clear across town from where I live. When I got there, these guys are straight-up legit and they know their stuff. At first, the rep thought the FOB was only a shell case but after opening it up found that it was a possible bad battery inside....and it was. I don't think I was there for more than 20 mins by the time all said and done. I spent $45 for the re-pro and $4 for the new battery and worth every penny of it, not to mention, the customer service is unmatched! I can't speak on anything else other than this current dealing but I can say this.....anyone else I would have dealt with in town, I would have spent nothing less than $85 and (can't honestly say) have the same customer service. Thanks, all, you forever have my business! read more

Timely, professional, so helpful. Went in for a canopy key and they did all the research and hooked me up with a key all for free. Best locksmith in Portland. read more

Great service and such laid back and calm guys. They saw the job through and made sure everything worked properly. I would look to these guys again in a heartbeat for any locks issues I have in the future! read more

I lost my car key and had no spare. These guys were fast, personable and had the best price.

I was very impressed with their service. I called this morning and was able to have the work done this afternoon. Austin rekeyed my home - he was on time, professional and helpful. I would definitely recommend them. read more
