Managed to lose the keys on a car I had in storage. He came to the facility at the appointed time, and worked quickly and efficiently and generated a new set of keys. Can't say enough about the service - quick and the price was reasonable. read more

I came here to replace a broken Honda key. "Tis the season", the clerk replied. Lots of Honda keys are breaking, due to poor design. I was interested in separating the clicker fob from the ignition key, such as my Jeep key is separate from the Jeep clicker. Looks like Honda doesn't work that way. The clerk did offer an "improved" key with better structural support. It was not as cheap as I though it would be -- hey, I am a bargain hunter at heart. Still less expensive than a Honda dealership. read more

Beware of Advanced Lock & Key in boise. This people are so shady, the said they could remove a broken key from my car's door and instead they pushed the lock all the way in to the door, leaving a hole! We tried to work with them since Sunday, even agreed to pay them $100 to fix it, since they said the only way was to remove the door, and that they were giving us a discount. They said they would stop by my place on Sunday to fix it, then they said it was snowing and that they needed daylight. Fine, then he asked us to drop the car today, fine, I took time off of work and dropped the car. He said it would be ready by 6 pm. We called at 5:30 to check on the car, and we were told they hadn't even started working on it! But he said he will call us back once ready. He finally called us about 6:40 this evening saying he can't do it now because it's too dark. I told them this was unacceptable and maybe we could renegotiate the price since I've waisted time off from work, and will be without a car tomorrow. They guy lost it, and started yelling on the phone and hang up! I called back and he said he wouldn't talk to me, all this while he still has my car!!! I called again and he said to come get my car and left my keys on my front tire. Horrible business. Please save your money and go else where. read more

Rude! Obviously anyone calling a locksmith because they're locked out of their house or car is already kinda stressed out. Don't need to be made to feel like an idiot too Call someone else! read more

Came to our business at 3am to let us in when a key broke in our main entrance. Fast, professional, courteous service. Kirk even went around and serviced all the door locks while he was there; no additional charge. read more

My girlfriend lost the keys to her F-150 and I've had Kirks number for a awhile. Called him up and he just happened to be just down the street. He was fast in creating and programming the keys to the F-150. Top rate nice guy and skills. Definitely the one to call. read more

Rude and unprofessional. There are plenty of other locksmiths in the area to go with, they will never get my business.

Spoke with Christian on the phone when I needed to schedule an appointment. He couldn't have been more helpful and professional and got me scheduled right away. Kirk came out the following day and couldn't have done a better job. A true Master Locksmith.  No doubt the place to call if you need a locksmith! read more

I locked my key in my car, I called this vendor and received lock out service which was timely. Lock out service was $49.00. However, I went to the business a short time later and requested and paid for a FOB and a door key. When I arrived home, I discovered the door key would not fit in the lock. I had to return to the business to have them complete the job that I paid for. When I arrived, the tech said that he had tried the key in the door lock and that it fit; however, he declined my offer to try the key in the lock and proceeded to recut the key. I requested some compensation for my time to return to the business so they could finish the job. Apparently, they thought that i was joking, as they laughed. My time to have to return to the business for a completion of the job not done, is worth at least as much as the $49 they charged to come to me for a service. read more

My daughter and family were moving my daughter to Boise, after our 13 hour car ride we got to the house she was staying at and couldn't get in. The batteries on the keypad were dead. The landlord called Advanced Key & Lock, the owner Kurt was quick to respond and was able to get us so we could finish our day as planned. read more

This is the company to call when you have a key issue. My husband lost his car key (don't ask) and we needed a replacement. The dealership wanted $300+ to replace it. We called the key guy and he was at our house in an hour and we spent about $100 for two keys and a key fob. If I could give 6 stars I would. Great service, quick service, and super affordable. read more

Both screen door lock and front door dead bolt froze and would not work. Called a different company and they recommended Advanced L&K. Called them up, gave my issues and within an hour my doors were fixed. Professional, friendly, good marks on customer service. The cost was reasonable and expected. Top score from me - a 5 star experience! read more

Needed a couple of new style Kwikset key barrels reversed and it was done in 5 minutes for a minimum charge. Friendly and knowledgeable! FYI every repair person that comes to your house will charge a service fee. That is how a business stays afloat. Travel time, gas, and insurance are not free so don't let a 2 star review keep you away. These guys are awesome! read more

I'm not gonna say they are a bad company because they tryed to get my key programmed. Although unsuccessful they still spend over 2 hours trying which I appreciate and paid them for their time and attempt of service. My only complaint is this: It was clear how frustrated they were that they couldnt figure out the issue. (My car is to blame, not them) understandably so. I still however paid for their service. So I too was left frustrated and keyless. And $200 wasted. Not to say that it's their fault. But we both got a raw deal in the end. So their obvious frustration over the deal left me feeling a little perturbed. As if they wasted their time. But they didnt. I still paid them. So a little more customer service and politeness would have gone a long way. Because after all... I am the one who is out 200$. Not them. But I still treated them w kindness and respect. Customer service is still important people. read more

Sean answered the phone this morning and was polite and professional and answered my questions and came out the same afternoon to do the job. He sent me a message to advise of his arrival time. He was prompt and performed the work he said he would do in a timely manner. If you're seeking a Locke with with experience and integrity, this is the man. read more

The guy showed up in a random car so immediately I didn't feel safe. He was late and it took him so long to unlock my door. Then after I was already in a rush he took so long to do everything and wasn't prepared to take my payment so I had to wait on him. Overall terrible experience will not use this company again. read more

Advanced Lock & Key (Shawn) did an awesome job with our home project. I had placed a call to the main number from their website and Kirk called me back promptly. He gave me a quote for the work I asked to be done and assigned the project to Shawn to come out within two days of my call. Shawn came out on time and ready to start the project. After a good discussion on what we wanted to achieve, Shawn made some suggestions that accomplished the same goal for less cost. Shawn has over 20 years of experience for the services we wanted done so we went with his suggestions. We had new locks installed and had our existing locks re-keyed to the new locks. Shawn was great. He has the knowledge, skills, work ethic, and all the tools to get the job done right. Shawn did all the work for the amount as quoted, on time, and as we had discussed before he started. This is how it's supposed to be done, and I'm very pleased with my decision to go with Advanced Lock & Key. I will definitely call them again as service(s) are needed, and I will request Shawn again. read more

These guys are great! Came out on a Sunday afternoon as we locked our last key in the car.. hit lock instead of unlock.. I called and then texted the address and within about 30 minutes the car was unlocked! I would recommend them highly! They kept me informed and only charged 49 ... Sweet! Good job guys! read more

amazing service, my tech reached out to me to get me serviced earlier then what was recommended for time and it was quick and exactly what I needed definitely recommend as I've needed their service twice in the past week and every experience was amazing read more

Great service, communication and price. Highly recommended locksmith. They came out to our house and re-keyed 3 locks then I went to their shop to have a key made and programmed for my truck, super quick service with no bs! read more

They had the key, prompt service, etc. but the young man that waited on me did not wear a mask. Didn't feel real comfortable in a small store with that situation. read more

One time bad experience? I called at 11:30pm because I got locked out of my house and they quoted me 45 mins. After an hour I called back and they said nobody got the memo and nobody was sent out to my residence. So they at that point quoted me 10-15 mins and sure enough, a guy showed up. He was dressed totally unprofessionally and didn't even greet us when we met, he just walked up to the house and started working. It took him over 20 mins to unlock the house. By the time everything was said and done, it took them two and a half hours to get to my house and unlock it. Very unprofessional and untimely, I will go out of my way to use another business next time. read more

We have a 2003 Lexus and list our only key. The Lexus dealership recommended contacting Advanced Lock and Key rather than the long wait and expense of going through Lexus. Advanced was fantastic! In less than 2 hours our car was unlocked and we had 2 new keys for half the amount one would have cost us. Highly recommend!!! read more

Last night my doorknob fell off, so this morning I called this company. They were there in 15 minutes and had the job done in 10 minutes. The technician was very nice and professional, the price was good, and I even put them in my contact list in case I need them again. My sister used them 6 weeks ago and was very pleased. I'm a fan! read more

Unfortunately, me (and everyone around me) seems to have the misfortune of locking our keys in cars, buildings or losing them forever. We've had Advance help us on several occasions, from our baby locking himself in a hot car (I called 911 & Advance and the locksmith company arrived first!!), to rekeying our residence and business, to helping with rekeying locks we've lost the keys to. Most recently, yesterday October 16th, these guys came out and help a co-worker unlock his car. The employee was so helpful and had a good sense of humor, which helped lighten the mood since I'm sure it can be a tiny bit embarrassing when you do that. read more

They will give you an over the phone estimate and stick by that price. No hidden charges or "we'll come out and let you know" then up charge the heck out of you. read more

Jacob is the best. It took longer for me to lock my truck than it did for him to make copies of two different keys.

Fast and great service! Justin was super helpful and unlocked my car in no time! Thank you!!!! read more

My son is attending BSU and locked himself out of his apt. I live in California & searched a nearby locksmith. Advanced Lock & Key came up with great reviews so I called to see if they could come out (it was late at night). They made it to my sons apt in 15 min and had his door open. It was a very quick and easy transaction. Would definitely recommend! read more

Jacob and Shay (?) helped me get a new programmed key for our Excursion. Quick, efficient, kept me informed through out the process. In and out in no time at less than 1/2 the price at the dealership. Highly recommend these guys. read more

Kirk did an awesome job and had me in my Sprinter within mins of arriving to me.

Excellent customer service! Keith was prompt and did an excellent job. Not only does my door shut better but it looks great. He installed a deadbolt and replaced the bottom doorknob. I called another place and they were rude, go with Advanced Lock and Key! They are accommodating to a work schedule since most of us work! read more

I needed my new car fob reprogrammed, and after dealing with the rude employees at my dealership I called Advanced Lock & Key. Everyone just call here first! He was great! He was courteous and fast! I was done and on my way in less than 10 minutes! Plus he was way cheaper than my dealership! I will definitely use them again and recommend to everyone! read more

Came in to get a key copied. It only took a few seconds. Cheap. Friendly business. Great, fast service.

They got us hooked up with two programmed keys quickly. Done and done. I don't need to say anything else

Justin saved us!! A parent locked their child in the car at our center (the car was running with the A/C) and after a google search Advanced Lock & Key answered the phone right away and were here very quickly. They didn't even charge us to unlock the door, since a child was locked inside. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for all your help and quick response!! Would recommend them to anyone. read more

Went over to get a special car key cut today, and I have to say Jacob the owner was a real class act. It took a little extra finesse to cut the new key as the old one was badly worn, but Jacob got it nailed down in under 10 mins. Can't recommend this business enough if you're in need of a solid locksmith! read more

Kirk Ciccarello went out of his way to make a service call to me the other day to fix my car that had been broken by another shop. He was supposed to be ending his shift soon and was nice enough to stop by and help me out first. My car wouldn't start until he fixed my MyKey Ford issue. I am grateful and highly recommend ! read more

I am sorry that I had to select one star. I went to Advanced Lock & Key, to have a key made for a like new high end vehicle that I had just purchased. They cut through the ONLY original key at their shop, then proceeded to blame me for distracting them by looking around the shop. They were not going to tell me they had cut through the original key until I noticed they were going back and forth from the shop to the vehicle. The employee was literally going out and trying to crank over the engine with a make-shift key, coming back inside to see if he could somehow get it right and when I asked if we should contact the dealership, he said "No". Long story short, because of their lack of expertise, I ended up having to have the ignition, door locks and battery replaced at significant cost, because the vehicle's ignition has an anti-theft mechanism, that was fouled by their employee's poor workmanship. I was disappointed that they tried to make me somehow feel inferior for their mistake, AND were unwilling to cover the damage to the vehicle. It is unfortunate when businesses like this handle business so poorly. read more

They were on it!! Got to my car in under 20 minutes to help me unlock my door. Super impressed. Will definitely use in the future if need be. Highly recommend! read more
