    Hours as of Feb 2023: Mon 8:30 - 7:30 PM Tues 8:30 - 7:30 PM Wed 8:30 - 7:30 PM Thur 8:30 - 7:30 PM Fri 8:30 - 7:30 PM Sat 2:00 - 7:30 PM Sun 2:00 - 7:00 PM *** there is a slight change to their schedule. I came here and the gentlemen there was soo quick to swap out the old battery for my car keys. I have a Toyota Corolla and the cost to change battery was $10. I talked with him and found out he and his partner opened this shop 40 years ago or so. The gentlemen I met had been here for 20 years. Great and quick service! And this business card gave me a crackle hahaha

    Liars!! They said they open on Sundays I came here at 1:00 pm they were closed. I went to Home Depot & Mission Hardware they didn't have keys so small. So I came back at 2:30 hoping they would be open. Wrong and sadly disappointed. Better update your damn sign and don't make people waste their time.

    "Keys cut while you shop"... this is very good because it only takes me 2 minutes to shop usually.   See 24 hour Mobile Service phone number

    "The Key Shop" is one of the last old-fashioned affordable Locksmith shops in the area. Possibly the last one. (Seriously, I imagine it will still be in business after the zombie apocalypse.) I wanted to duplicate a gate key. I go to Google Maps and all I see are automated key duplication kiosks or remote locksmiths (without a shop). Calling a remote locksmith to come to my house to duplicate a key seemed very overkill, so I went to one of the nearby KeyMe kiosk. The kiosk charged almost $11 (with tax) to duplicate a simple residential key. The duplicated key did not work so I had to contact customer service to get a refund. Through word of mouth (aka the very old and very cheap Chinese folk), I ended up at "The Key Shop". It is a tiny storefront just to the right of the 168 Market. As I stood in front of the shop, I felt like it was 20-30 years ago (and the store front also looked it). The locksmith was hidden inside so I had to call out a few times to catch his attention, passed the key to him, asked for one copy, and a couple of minutes later, it was done. (No unnecessary chitchat, just like the way I take my morning coffee. I live alone.) The price was super affordable, just a couple bucks to duplicate a simple key (unlike the bandit kiosks with their fancy A.I. and high-tech precision lasers that didn't actually get the job done. Though I, for one, welcome our A.I. overlords). It looked like the owner is the only worker. And the shop was opened every day with generous hours. As with any small one-person store, I think you should take the opening/closing hours with a grain of salt; he may open late and close early. Just shoot for the middle hours and you should be okay. There is a sign to the left of the 168 Market (with an arrow pointing to right) that also advertises The Key Shop and mentions a 24 hour mobile service. The mobile service phone number is 626-289-3549. The owner is one hard-working dude! When does he sleep? In the shop while waiting? Is that why I have to call out a few times? Am I too obsessively curious? (Reminds me of one of my favorite Chinese restaurant owners who did not take a day off for 30 years. God rest his soul.)

    Since my car key had a transponder in it, Mission Hardware nearby couldn't help me, but they recommended this place.

I called and spoke with Michael who was great. From there I was able to send him photos and explanations of the various things that were needed so that he could give a rough estimate. *This is huge because many times people will not give you rough estimates. We then scheduled for Gilli to come out to take a further look and give a quote. Gilli checked in 20 min before arrival to let me know he was on his way AND he arrived at the very beginning of the 2 hour window I was given for service. *Amazing! Gilli came, we went through everything. He gave me multiple pricing options (so I could decide what worked best for my budget) and did some great trouble shooting. Then he quickly and efficiently got to work changing and installing my locks; he also made sure to double check things with me and explain so that I was clear -being that there were various things we were doing and different choices to be made along the way. I will be sharing their info with friends and family and will absolutely use them again in the future should I have locksmith needs!

    Excellent, excellent experience. Gilli called ahead of time to give me an ETA and showed up exactly…read morewhen he said he would. He explained everything that was happening as he was working to rekey a couple of doors. Very knowledgeable, gave options, and worked quickly. Cool guy too, which is a plus in my book. I highly recommend M&H Locksmith!
