Needed a spare key fob for my C300 Mercedes-Benz. He was able to copy my existing and make me a spare FOB. The price was resonable and worth every penny. I provided my own spare FOB but he had them too. read more

My elderly parents needed a key made for a steamer trunk from the late 1800's. They lost the key and somehow ended up calling Eagle Lock and Key. My parents are located in the Carolinas and Duane was patient and found the right combination to make them a key. They were able to open their old trunk without breaking it. We are so grateful for Duane and Eagle Lock and Key! read more

I need to get a remote key programed for my Subaru CrossTrex. I had lost a remote key while adventuring with me dog. In ordered a replacement key online and just needed it programmed. I called Duane and he was very quick to respond to me and was very helpful. He quoted me a very reasoble prices. I had contacted other people who were charging me ridiculously high price just for programming the key. They wanted to charge me 180.00 which I found ridiculous because the key itself only cost me 100.00. Duane said it would be 65.00. Which seemed like a very readable price! He did it fast, was very helpful and the price was fair and reasonable! I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a locksmith! read more

Eagle Lock & Key - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

So, definitely some communications issue over the phone but in person Duane is very helpful. He was able to quickly open my car door lock which had jammed and was able to provide a 2nd key fob at a much better price than Toyota, about half as much. He also lent me his jumper cable to help start my car which had a bum battery. Was raining that day and he just powered through it like nothing. The reason I'm giving him the rating I am is because the 2nd key fob he sold us died a month later. When I called about getting it replaced he presumed I wanted to pay him to do so, and suggested I just do it myself because it was cheaper. If the battery had died next year (or ideally many years later) then that would have been very nice advice, but since I had practically just bought it from him, I expected that he would replace it for free, as really, a fresh battery should have been used from the get-go. When I reiterated my expectation he flat out refused and told me to go find and replace the battery myself. read more

Duane came out and right away and made my key for my car and the prices were low. I waited a couple of hours for someone else and they canceled on me read more

Needed a new keyfob so ordered an OEM keyfob online. It came with a few quirks in it, but Duane from Eagle Lock &Key was able to make it work. He programmed the fob successfully, and then cut the new key perfectly. I am so happy I called Eagle Lock & Key!!! read more

Duane came out to the house to program a couple of after-market spare fobs for a Buick Regal. After several programming attempts they turned out to be the wrong ones. Luckily, he had the right one on his truck and programmed it successfully. I was impressed with his technical ability and how he cheerfully saw it through to completion. His prices are very reasonable and I would definitely recommend his service and use him again. read more

Helped me out with a quick quote, a reasonable estimate and an accurate wait time. Loved learning the ins and outs of flipping a lock. Thank you sir. read more

I don't know how I managed to lock my keys and the cell phone inside my car but I did. I use my Bluetooth to call the local locksmith. Some companies give you a $25 service call and when they get there it will tell you how much it will cost, For me that's a complete scam. How come they cannot give you the price when you tell him you have a Ford Econoline I think the doors of ford are all the same. When I called Eagle lock and key the, guy on the phone gave me a price of $45 to unlock my car, he showed up within 15 minutes and it took him about 10 seconds to open my car. Very honest and professional service. read more

Got locked out of my house taking out the trash..oh darn! I have "a system" to get back in but it failed, human error. Double darn! Luckily my neighbor was home to use a phone. Called one place and they were on a call, couldn't come for another 1 1/2 hours..Yelped and saw this place, called and they were available much sooner, in 30 minutes. They came in 20! Hot diggity dawg!! It took them less than 5 minutes to get the door open and I didn't have to replace the lock. Whoa. I was envisioning having to get new keys made. Nope! It's not cheap getting "emergency" help but it was reasonable. It was also $20-30 less, different in price, from the first company I called. I was happier than a clam in high tide. Thank you Eagle! Saving a damsel in distress. read more

I bought a replacement key cylinder for my Honda Accord drivers side door and needed a locksmith to fit my old keys in my new lock. The other locksmiths I called were too busy or were honest and said they weren't that comfortable with automobile keys. Duane was available, and even said he would be able to put my door back together for an additional charge. I should have called around and done more research, but I was anxious to have my car up and running again. Two things that I have no problem with: he showed up right when he said he'd be there, and he re-keyed all three of my keys just fine. If you just need a locksmith, and you're okay with awkward interactions, you may as well call this guy. But when it got to my car door, I lost my patience very quickly. He didn't seem to know what he was doing, but wasn't comfortable telling me that. I had helped my boyfriend take the car door off, so I knew some of the plastic pieces had chipped off. My automatic locks haven't worked in years, and I also knew that, and had told him all of this up front. He was fixated on the broken pieces, and kept saying he didn't know where one of the rods went. Interacting with him was like talking to a five year old, and after three hours I just wanted him gone. I had to repeatedly ask if he wanted to keep going, or if he wanted to stop so my boyfriend could take over. He eventually put the thing back together, after I was ready to pull my hair out. The door and all three keys worked, so I told him to go. He mentioned he hadn't attached the rod on both ends, but since it worked, I was just going to have someone else look at it. I wanted this awkward man gone. When I went to get in my car that night, the lock no longer worked. I had to pay someone else to fix his ineptitude. The rod wasn't broken, but when I called him to ask for my money back (for the labor, not the re-keying), he insisted it was broken and there was nothing else he could have done. I don't normally write nasty reviews, but I gave him a chance to make it right, and he didn't. He said he could put my door back together, but he didn't do it properly. My (professional) mechanic made absolutely no mention of the chipped plastic piece on the rod, as it wasn't totally necessary. This guy wasted an afternoon I could have been getting it fixed by someone who knew what they were doing, and argued with me when I called him out on it. Eventually I gave up and hung up the phone. What a waste of time, money, and energy. read more

Duane was awesome. He replaced my front door handle which was original from 1950 so not a straightforward task. He came immediately, was professional, so knowledgeable about the old hardware, neat, and reasonably priced. I will use again. read more

Great service. He showed up quickly, which was important, because my keys were locked in my car and it was running. Very efficient, and friendly...and he made an extra car key for me. I highly recommend this locksmith. read more

I was impressed with Duanes promptness in coming to my house within 30 minutes of calling. He offered me a fair price to re-program and cut my blank key and worked on the car for over an hour. He was very professional and worked really hard to fix my key. Thanks Duane~! read more

Duane was very responsive in getting back to me with a quote to copy a couple keys and program a couple of fobs for my car. I was able to meet with him at a location the next day (being a mobile locksmith) and have everything done in half an hour all from his van. He had the lowest quote, but I can say don't let that detail fool you: He could/should be charging double and people would pay for his great service and knowledge. I'll have to use his services for changing out some house locks in the near future. read more

Never have interacted with someone so RUDE when calling and asking for a simple estimate. Although the price was reasonable and decent in my book, I'm giving Duane one star for how rude he was, for hanging up on me and not taking my calls afterwards. read more

Duane is amazing! His knowledge of locks is incredible. He was very prompt and got the job done quickly. Great rates as well! Thank you Duane for making a stressful situation a lot easier! I refer him now to anyone who is need of a locksmith. read more

Steve, the person who helped me out, was kind and courteous. He even offered a ride to an ATM so I could get the money I owed for the service since I never carry cash on me. The price was a little steep but it comes with the service provided. read more

I would suggest not using them if you have a choice. I got them through my insurance company when the plastic part of my key broke leaving the remainder in the ignition. I just needed a little strength and pliers to turn the key and pull it out. My insurance said they would cover the travel cost of a locksmith but I would need to pay cost of the service that could be $145 - $300. The locksmith turned up pulled the key out in 2 minutes with pliers and called his office to ask the cost. He was told $150 for this and although I tried to reason with Doug in the office he told me that was the quote and that I was lucky that it didn't cost more and fortunate that the insurance covered the travel cost. Doug proceeded to tell me that a Lexus Dealer would have charged hundreds to remove the key. The locksmith who I believe was Duane said that although they quote flat rates for their services if they had to work on the key for longer I would have been charged more. So I'm not really sure how they they charge although Duane stated that he charges whatever Doug tells him to. I would avoid and I am surprised at the lack of customer service. read more

Since I first reviewed Duane, I've had yet another occasion to use his services. I lost the chipped key for my newer model truck. Duane was able to replace keys and replacement keypad within 24hours. And it was for a price about 1/2 what the dealer quoted me for the same! THANK YOU DUANE! read more

Duane made me a new key for my 2002 BMW M3. I did not realize how much work it is to make a key! He spent approx. 2 hrs cutting and programing the new key. He did an excellent job and had a fair price. He was professional and came to my home in La Mesa. I called approx. 8 other locksmiths in the San Diego area and he had the best price and value. I would recommend his business. read more

All I can say about Duane is wow! I wanted to avoid the cost of a dealer replacing my key for my car. To cut and program the key, the dealer wanted $280. My husband ordered a blank key from Ebay for about $40. Duane was prompt and professional. He went above and beyond in not only cutting the key to code but programming it too. He had to erase all prior key data which took a little extra time but he was very focused in getting the job done correctly. He not only cut and programmed the key, but programmed the buttons on the key (lock, unlock and panic). He had to try it about 4 - 5 times but the car was dead (did I mention he helped me jump the car? ) overall his service was exceptional and if I ever need another locksmith I'll be calling Duane. The key works great and I can't beat $88 to cut, program and replace the battery on the new key. Not too bad at all :) read more

Duane is awesome! I was in a very stressful situation and I needed keys made for my 2005 Toyota Tacoma. He was very trustworthy and was able to get the keys made while I was at work. He left the keys in a secure location and confirmed everything was done! I definitely will be referring him to others in need of a key replacement! :) read more
