Bullis Systems - The Outside view also they have a parking area so no need to feed the meter! - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The key fob to my car key broke so I installed the electronic parts in a new fob but still needed the key copied. I went to ace hardware and they couldn't make the copy because of the particularly wide groove in the key. They recommended Bullis and Mid City Lock. Bullis had better reviews on Yelp so I went there. They had a small parking lot attached to the business. It cost $20 to get my car key copied and took 25 minutes. I'd say it was pretty busy at a 1:30pm on Thursday. They did not greet me/acknowledge my existence upon walking in but they were very polite when providing my service. read more

Wow! What service!! We bought a new home and didn't have keys for all of our many doors. Bullis handled that for us. Re-keyed all the locks so that now one key opens all the locks and even installed some new locks so that our home is more secure. Their prices were very reasonable and the work was done very quickly. read more

On May 30, 2024. The entire time, Kevin from Bullis Lock Company was there, he kept glancing with disgust at my gay pride shopping bag. On May 30, 2024, Kevin from Bullis Lock Company arrived to replace a jimmy lock. Kevin installed only half of the Jimmy lock. Taking the New angle strike plate and screws back with him. I was left with my old angle strike plate covered in old paint. The next morning, the Jimmy lock broke. Upon leaving, I could not get the pistons to slide into the angle strike plate. I was charged $211.97. After my brother came home from vacation, we bought locks off the shelf and installed it ourselves. read more

Bullis Systems - The old angled strike is still there. I paid for a new jommy lock. - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This is a real locksmith who take the time to cut keys that work. Sad the big boxes try, but make keys that don't work.

I just finished installing my Corbin mortise lock. I went to Bullis to replace a broken spring internally. They replaced my broken spring and oiled my lock. Thier service and support is excellent. I known the owners for many years. They are humble and honest owners. Do business with Bullis. read more

They did a great job fixing my very old lock on my 100 year old 3 flat. Will definitely be using them again !

Excellent service , I have had minor projects with Bullis and each time they have been great! I have only positive things to say about them.

They were super reasonable from a price standpoint. Plus they were right on time! He did a really good job as well on the work!

I needed a patio door lock fixed ASAP. These guys went above and beyond to make sure I wasn't paying extra, they were clear about estimates and expectations, and they had my door locks fixed within 24 hours even though they had to fit me in at an inconvenient time for them. Kudos to Michael and Kevin. Highly recommend. read more

Bery professional, took time to answer many questions. Highly recommend. If you want a responsible knowledgeable co. This is it.

They charge the same ripoff prices as dealers / Just say NO to paying $250 for a $89 item !! Sorry Charlie's! Plus programming of $200 - that's just as bad as the scam Toyota dealership read more

I had my wife's 2006 Honda Civic's keys duplicated here and they did a great job programming everything to factory spec including the alarms and door locks. read more

This company has been the best customer service I have had in over 10 years. The employees and owner were a extremely professional, patient and customer oriented. Came in with a car key fob that was totally messed up by me. They were persistent and patient to correct the problem that I had caused. They would not have been happy leaving without a resolution. A rare quality in today's service environment. Good job guys. You should be proud of your team. read more

Man....These guys were awesome. Needed a coded car key cut because I lost my keys. It took nearly an hour (a few hiccups), and they were incredibly friendly and nice about my frustrating situation. And the price was amazing!!! I will definitely use them again. read more

The people here are wonderful. I came in to get my motorcycle key copied and, having found Bullis online, I decided to try them out. I am glad that I did! Not only did they have blanks for my key, but I was in and out in under 5 minutes! I cannot recommend them enough! read more

Friendly service and great prices. I needed to replace the housing for two Honda car key fobs. At just $50 per key fob, they replaced the housing and cut me a new key. For two key fobs, it took about 25 minutes. The location is conveniently located off the 90/94 and they have a parking lot. read more

I have been through hell and back trying to get a replacement key made for my car. I was told so many different things by other locksmiths and dealerships.

Guys this review should only require 5 words.... THESE. GUYS. ARE. LIFE. SAVERS. SERIOUSLY!!! ok ok ok 6 words..... But for real these guys have gotten me out of so many pinches in the last few years. Id never take any lock/ key issue anywhere else!!! read more

Worse company ever. Called to have them come out and fix the locks they had installed here in our business. That was on Tuesday, today is Thursday and guess what, they still haven't shown up. The man on the phone was gruff, I told him they had done the job and his first words were I'll have to charge you. Never asked him to do it for free. If your smart look further. Call someone else. read more

My keys were made fast and they worked! Keys were hard to find anywhere else. Thanks Bullis Lock Co

Hands down best locksmith ive ever been to whatever you need if they dont have or cant fix it your not gonna find it ..own a few properties and i go here to match the front and rear doors so my tenants dont have 1000 keys .had a broken old lock that would had been a pain to change took it to the locksmith down the street from me near north ave and leamington they refused to even fix it sd you need a new one took it to bullis and they fixed it in 15 minutes il never go anywhere else. read more

Used them a few years ago at our old office. Just had them repair our front door hardware at new location. Very professional and attentive. Easy to work with and communicate. read more

I visit a lot of locksmiths all over the city for work reasons and I have to say this is one of the best. They were well staffed with enough workers to keep things moving and everyone appeared to be knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Their pricing was fair as well. read more

We went to Home Depot 3 times and the keys never worked.. went to this place and it has been perfect.

Bullis Lock has like most places I review been around 4ever. Highest calibre locksmithing done here. While others come here for something more in the latest technology vein, one reason I return is because they do mortise locks. You know, the (very) old-timey 'keyhole' type in your old construction apartment doorknobs. I can get duplicates of these when I have an original, or they have a full complement of masters to reference when I don't possess the original. So I get all the locks on my doors 100% functional, all the better to slow-down or thwart a potential break-in (am I wrong to give them this tip here?). I'm a technical-type myself, and've been surprized at what they can do for me when all hope was lost. So if Bullis does this, you know they do all things lock superior. A tiny amount of off-street parking, open Sarurday mornings, located couple doors west of Schurz H.S. (by Milwaukee Ave). read more

The two Mikes kept the store open a couple of minutes after hours after I was referred to them by another locksmith. They had the rare Schlage reset key to rekey my own locks. All of that with two new originals and three copies in less than 20 minutes and less than $15. Go with a real lock company, with a real store, real service and a real history, not just somebody with a van and an answering service. Shop local and locksmith local, too. read more

ask for joe! places like this are hard to come by. amazing over the top customer service, the willingness to really help a customer out!! joe even wanted me to call him when i got home and let him know if the key (cut from a code on a blank i had to order off the internet!) worked. it did!! thanks again joe. ive got you on speed dial now. read more

I needed a new lock for our unique patio door because the door required us to use a key to get in AND out of the door. Since we use it primary door, I wanted to be able to twist lock at least from the inside. I called around and asked several locksmiths and none were able to provide this type of service. Bullis lock was able to find a lock that works (even tho it is 1 inch longer than the depth of our door) and install it for us. Im so glad we don't have to use a key every time we needed to open the door, which is multiple times a day!! Not to mention it's a fire hazard if we can't find our keys, it's just so convenient. The longer lock does not bother me at all. read more

Definite pros. I was referred here by Ace hardware at Elston and Belmont, and they arrived within 20 minutes on a Saturday. It took the guy a while to pry the broken-off key out of the keyhole, but he finally did. Once that was done, we got in and he re-set the lock so it wouldn't jam like that again. He was in and out in about 15 minutes, and we had some good conversation while he was working. He said my lock was a challenge, which I took as a compliment. See, absentee landlords have something going for them after all! read more

I came in to make a copy of a key for my 1993 Yamaha Virago motorcycle. Ace and Home Depot could not make the copy, and I couldn't even find the right blank key on-line. Five dollars and five minutes later, I left with a perfectly functioning copy. This place does good work. read more

Professional, friendly service and the locksmith even tightened down all the other fittings on my door. Bullis does excellent work!

These guys are fantastic! Bought a used car that came with only 1 key. It is the type of key with a chip: wrong key = car won't start. (Didn't know this until I went to get a duplicate at the local hardware store.) Toyota dealer wanted to charge $150 for the key PLUS service hours for programming it. Local hardware store mentioned Bullis. I've probably driven by here 100 times and never noticed it. Walked in, gave them the key, asked if they could make another. "Sure can!" they said. Since the key was more expensive due to the chip, they cut a plain metal key first to be sure it worked in the lock and ignition. Then they went out to test it on my car. Once confirmed, they cut the chipped key. They then went out again and tested the chipped key on the car to be sure the car would start with it. Cost was around $70 including tax, and they gave me the metal flat key to keep as an extra in case the key gets locked in the car (fits in a wallet). Service was excellent. Happy to give them a great review. read more
