KeySmart - The front of the shop. - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

This is a class operation that works hard to make certain all your questions are answered and everything works. Very competitive prices. Completely recommend this company for your transponder, key needs. read more

I highly recommend them for your key fob programming and laser cut key needs. Customer service was great, staff was friendly and courteous. I called numerous locksmiths after the dealer quoted me $200, and a few other places quoted me $100 or more. The next cheapest place I found was in Natomas. KeySmart's price was cheaper and they had me in and out before I could finish writing a review similar in length on Yelp about another business. This is now my go to place for any vehicle key fob repair/replacement. read more

I ordered two remote keys online and was told to have the keys programmed by a auto locksmith, So I called around and all the others wanted to order from the dealership or take out the computer module, to solve my problem, VIP read more

In short, great work at great value. I've used them for multiple cars and always happier that any other place I've been to.

I wish I knew this place existed awhile ago. Awesome, friendly staff/service, took their time finding a remote replacement for my car which is older and also made a duplicate key. Price is the best in town. read more

HUGE mistake coming here. They may be the cheapest but it is not worth it!!!!!!!!!!!! I got my key to my car reprogrammed on Friday I had 1 off brand key and my 2 original Honda keys that came with the car. The person helping me told me the off brand key was very weird and he was having trouble reprogramming my car but ended up working. He told me multiple times he was having trouble. It works fine after about an hour I leave they do not advise me to do anything else other then have a good day. Saturday morning not 1 of my keys will turn my car on I call and leave a voicemail. I get a call back a few hours later from a very rude man who wouldn't even listen to me tell me "from my experience it's not our fault you brought your own keys" if he would've programmed it he would've had me drive off with each car separately to ensure they all work separately and I would have to keep paying them to reprogram it because it's not their fault but I was never told that. He told me it's my battery for sure when I have had the battery checked everything checked and working fine and they would not be helping me at all unless I pay them to do the same exact thing again. DO NOT GO HERE! read more

I saved over $200 bucks today by going through these guys. Best part is they use factory parts, not aftermarket. The team is super friendly and professional. Highly recommend going here. read more

The People at Keysmart know their business. Fixed my 2014 Honda CRV Key problem. Original key stopped working for no reason. So, got a honda original key Blank. Didn't get a key blank they have them. They cut and coded it and it works for $70. However, they have key blank for all the cars in house. And may be able to fix your original key too. Very Happy Kent read more

Smooth and Easy Called ahead to see if they could whip me up another Jeep key. They said no problem. Luckily I asked their hours because they are kind of short. 8-12 during the week if I understood them. No worries I was there at 10. They quoted me a price better than the dealership and that was the final price. They said it would take about 20 mins and I was in and out in a bit less than that I believe. Very happy with the whole deal. read more

Found KeySmart through the VW dealership in Roseville. We had purchased a used Jetta from another dealer and needed additional keyfobs cut and programmed. I purchased the keyfobs on eBay for the Jetta, as well as some for my Lincoln LS. I called and got a quote and scheduled an appointment. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. Gia, the resident Pug of the office was also incredibly friendly. They had the job done in record time on both vehicles! Thank you KeySmart! read more

Chances are that the car you drive uses transponder keys. They are extremely expensive to have duplicates made at the dealership. I mean, ridiculously crazy expensive. You would think that they are being hand forged by the Dark Lord Sauron himself in Mount Doom. Do yourself a huge favor and go here instead. Transponder keys are different from the ignition keys of old. The following is a highly technical explanation of how they work: When the key is inserted into the ignition and turned, the car's engine control unit (ECU) asks the key "hey man, do I know you?", and only if the key correctly answers back "you know you do" Will the ECU then say "all right all right all right" and disarm the immobiliser. So now you know why they are so expensive. I had two keys made here. The first was a Honda key with a broken shell (the shank had actually completely separated from the plastic housing). This required a new "shell" and a new laser cut shank (as the old one was warn). The chip and other components were fine and were just transferred to the new shell. This was about $40 (a fraction of what the dealer would have charged) and the replacement shell is much more durable with a lifetime guarantee. The second was an entirely new "spare" key with chip. This one was cut and programmed by the tech at KeySmart and then checked to verify that it worked correctly. This was about $60 (also a fraction of what the dealership would have charged). So if you want your ECU to say "all right all right all right" then you should be key smart and go to KeySmart! Yeah, they probably saved me over $200 on this visit! read more

I highly recommend this place. I lost one of the proximity keys to my car, which is also a security key, I ordered the proximity remote and blank key online (ebay) and most local locksmiths wanted to charge me between $120 & $200 to simply cut the security key and program the proximity remote to my car. I contacted them through yelp, and they charged me $60 to cut the key and program the proximity remote to my car. Will definitely recommend them to my friends and use them again as needed. read more

I bought some keys off of eBay for my 2013 VW Jetta. They laser cut my keys but were unable to program them. I called around but no one else seemed to be able to cut/program VW keys. I sent the keys back and ordered some from the dealer. More expensive, but at least they worked. I was given a deal, as I already had paid for the original cutting. That is great service. I will definitely go back to them for all my key needs. Very friendly and professional staff. read more

My '05 Lexus RX330 keys were while on vacation. I.just happen to stumble upon KeySmart while in the area working. It turns out they were exactly what I needed since my key fob was push button electronic entry. KeySmart replaced my key within minutes and the price was alot better than the dealership. I recommend KeySmart to anyone! Johnny Cannon read more

I needed to get a spare key cut for my Lotus Evora. Since there are no Lotus dealers in the Sacramento area, it was suggested on a forum to contact Jaguar dealers, since the keys used in the Evora were also used in previous-generation Jags. I contacted Niello Jaguar, and they wouldn't cut my key, but they did turn me on to KeySmart. After making an initial call to KeySmart to verify that they could cut the key, I drove out there with the blank in hand. I didn't catch the guy's name that helped me, but after about 5 minutes, he came out with the cut key and had me test it. Worked great on the door and ignition. Excellent customer service! Will definitely recommend to everyone on the LT forums. read more

Charges more for very poor quality service. Key made does not even fit right. Beware of this company.

I came here just a few days ago to get some keys programmed for my jeep Patriot and between calling keysmart on the phone and being greeted by a very professional receptionst and getting my keys programmed by a key tech who cared about giving great service, i was very happy and impressed. I was well taken care of. Keysmart is knowledgeable, friendly and very cool place to cut car keys and get them programmed. I needed their service and def. got what i needed. This is a 5 star business, i will be back again!!! ty KEYSMART! read more

Thank you..... KeySmart for being a alternative cost savings to dealer mark up to programing my transponder chip ,remoteless entry / lock & cutting the key too. From Samantha I talked to over the phone with the price quote to Mikko doing the programing of my spare key I bought from the dealer. If I've known earlier, I would of bought the key from these guys too. Great service for cutting new blanks, remote & transponder programing. Highly recommend them for your automotive key needs read more

Great service, start to finish. Responded quickly via email. Got a quote to me quickly. When I went to get my key they were easy to find. I was greeted and given friendly service when I arrived. It took about fifteen minutes to cut and program the key. The price was great. They saved me about $300 over what I was quoted by the dealership. I know where I'm going if I ever need a key. Thanks guys. read more

Don't call these jerks unless you want someone to be rude, put you down, don't want to answer questions then hang up on you. Then I called back and spoke with Dustin who told me that he was the one who told the first guy to hang up on me. They accused me of being argumentative when I was asking why they quoted me a price of $135 six months ago and now it's $400 for the same key. By the way, I've already given my feedback to the company that refers you guys out. They will be looking for someone else to refer. Well, good luck in your business. You will fail with this type of customer service. It's 2 days later a I got more for 250.00 than this company wanted 600.00 for. These guys wanted 400 for a key with buttons and 200 without buttons. I got both for 250.00 including 1 extra key and done at my home. read more

Let me start by saying they have moved. New address is 1052 melody lane #200. Roseville. I have used these guys for years even back when they were river city locksmiths. Their specialty is in keyless entry automotive remote programming. They can program any remote. At first I was a bit irritated when I walked in cause there is no google listing for them and there phone system is not functioning properly. Option number 3 for location and hrs does not work. Plus the yelp listed address is wrong. I to leave them this and they said they have tried to change it. Then they programmed my remote and told me it was on the house I was shocked! Can't beleive they helped me like that. I guess it was simple so they took care of me. So... 5 star it is! read more

Fantastic service. I could not find anywhere in town that would give me such a great deal on new keys and key fobs. They also had my keys and fob in stock. Many places in town that I called would have to special order then. The technician was very friendly and I will make sure to refer my friends and family here if they ever need keys or follow fobs. Thank you! read more

I am very impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise at Key Smart. I recently went to them for a new key less remote for my 2000 Corvette. They went out of their way to track one down and order it. They did their magic with a little machine that adjusted it to match the settings on my car. They are very cost effective and we will certainly go back to them if we ever have another problem with key less remote. This compares with a visit to the local Mercedes dealer in Rocklin who charged us $240 for a new FOB for my wife's car. I recommend Key Smart highly and without reservation. Steve Quiggle read more

Yes, folks this is the place to go to get your car door key clicker serviced! My Camry Hybrid door handle smart key recognition wasn't working due to a tired smart key battery. So, I checked Yelp and KeySmart popped up with rave reviews. I waked into the store and was greeted cordially. I explained my situation, and the young lady took my electronic key to the back room where a new battery was installed jiffy quick. When I asked how much do I owe you, the answer was "NOTHING. This is a complimentary service we offer." Hey, when was the last time you were offered free goods and services - with a smile? You guys have my 5-star vote. Keep up the good work! And thank you. read more

Called around to have a duplicate transponder key made for my 2008 Dodge RAm only to get run around from a variety of locksmiths as to charges (travel, hourly etc.). Dealer wanted $125 to re program. What a Joke. Took it to Keysmart and they had it reprogrammed and done in 15 Minutes. Total charge was less than $ 50. They were fantastic. read more

Thank you so much for the keys! I was in a hurry and needed keys quick and happened to be driving by! Amazing service and super quick! Thank you so much! read more

Great customer service and they were super fast! In and out in 15 minutes lifetime warranty for my shell & unlimited battery changes for my key alarm. He made sure to check the key started for my car and worked for my door before I paid. read more

This place was awesome. The entire process took like 15 minutes from the time I walked into the door and the time I walked out. I saved the service call fee because I came to the office. I am planning on returning again to have another car key made and I would DEFINITELY recommend this company to anyone!!! read more

Lost my only key to my chevy equinox and needed a new one made. After calling around and being blown away by the cost $250 + !! After calling key smart I was quoted $100 for a new key and programming! I just had to have my car towed there, which was free because of my roadside assistance. I had a new key and was on my way in 20 minutes, thank you!!! read more

Dustin is top notch, he was able to take my new ignition switch & re-key it to my old key on my Honda Element. Jeremy was awesome, extremely professional & great customer service. Jeremy even made sure I knew that AAA covers locksmith service & helped me with the paperwork to get reimbursed for my new chip keys. I'd recommend these guys to anyone. Definitely coming here for my future key needs. read more

I could not have ask for a better experience! Fast, courteous, AND they replace 3 batteries for me for FREE! Keys with chips in them are super expensive, so them throwing in the free batteries was awesome. I highly recommend Keysmart! God bless. read more

I got a great quote for two keys to be cut and programmed from blanks I purchased on Amazon if I brought the vehicle to their office. I did that and after about 30 minutes of trying, Jeremy said my keys read in his programmer but the car would not accept them. He then tried two of his keys and they worked. He spent over an hour graciously resolving the issues and giving me a big discount over the normal prices of the keys (and even then, Key Smart's normal price was much lower than other quotes I got). Jeremy also showed me how to program my own keys if I purchased more. Before I went in I spoke with Valerie and she was very prompt about getting back to me on the phone. I got great service from Key Smart and highly recommend them. Plus, they have an amazing salt water aquarium that is worth the visit while you wait! read more

Had two keys program and cut. The remote part of the keys did not work, bought the keys through Amazon. And Jeremy changed the remote parts to original Toyota remotes. Without no charge! Outstanding service! Will definitely do businesses with them again. read more

When I fist called KeySmart on the phone they seemed nice. So I went to check them out and have my Mazda transponder programmed . When I got there they were not as nice nor as reasonable as on the phone, I asked them a couple of questions I know the answers to so I could check their knowledge. A wrong answer to the key question turned them very rude. I suggest you try someone else. I went to the Dealer to get it done. Yest it cost me a little $40 more, but In addition to getting my key programmed I got a car wash, vacuum and an entire car checkout for the same price. And they were very courteous. If you want a great locksmith for I have had great happiness with Wayne's Locksmith of Placerville, the also do Sacramento and very reasonable.Very happy now! read more

I just called the 855 888 5397 and spoke to an employee named Dustin and let me say this, he is just plain rude and helpless. I called to get information about how I can get my key fixed because it wasn't working properly and was informed that the key was ordered through Key Smart. I asked him is there anyway I can get a hold of the work order and he said no they can't do that. My second question was if he can help me figure out where the key was ordered and kept repeating that BMW would know all of this when there are how many dealers located across California? After a few seconds he goes quite and asks "is there anything else?" I replied no not with this kind of customer service. Not even a simple let me check my computer to help narrow down the search. Honestly if this guy represents how your company runs I don't know how you guys do it then. read more

My electron key FOB was not opening or closing the car by remote. I changed the battery, checked the fuses, and still no luck. I called a volkswagon mechanic and he recommended I try Keysmart, because the dealership could cost a lot more. I read their yelp reviews and was not satisfied with the $146.00 I was quoted from a local volkswagon dealership to diagnose the car. I emailed KeySmart about my electronic Key problems for my 2010 Volkswagon bug . My email was answered within 24 hours ( and on weekend!!) stating to bring in the key to check it out. I was able to get over to the office a few days later, an hand over my key. In less than 15 minutes, the "volkswagon" guy, a very tall young man, had made me a dummy key AND reprogrammed my car. The key wouldn't run the car but would help if I ever needed to re-program again on my own. Problem solved!! I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to the staff at KeySmart, everyone in the office was so nice, and professional-- you have this customer for life. I am definitely going to return to get a second set of keys for both my families cars. read more
