Stop reading and call. Seriously, excellent service! Mike asked plenty of questions to ensure he would be able to help us. Originally, we were planning to go to a dealership but noticed they give inconsistent answers regarding our 2017 Outback. Weird, right? We were in a bind, having received only one key fob when we bought our car through Carmax. We are stumped as to how we lost it--it fell out of my pocket attracting the attention of larcenous crows is our best guess--so it would require having the car towed to a dealership with estimates well over $1500 for two fobs AND no guarantee they'd have it fixed within a day. No kidding. We called Mike last evening, answered a number of questions as I mentioned above about the type of fob and the specific model. He finally said, "Yes! I can do it." In fact, he offered some caveats that ended up being unnecessary, which helps explain why different dealerships charged wildly different prices. He was in and out in 45 minutes. Wow! That is why I Started with, "Stop reading and call." Thanks, again, Mike! read more

Answered my quote request quickly. The locksmith (Richard) was professional and efficient. There was an issue with gaining entrance through one door, but he was able to adapt quickly. No hidden or surprise fees. As painless of a process as is possible. read more

Okay - so I needed another key for my 2013 Corolla - of the two keys I started with, 1 was lost - the other, the transponder went dead. So I have been operating with only 1 key in my possession - making me a bit nervous. Saw this fellow passing me on Bruce B Downs, took his info, called him a day ago. HE CALLED BACK !! And if you dealt with locksmiths, you'll know this alone is a big deal. He quoted me a price and I was lucky enough he had a couple of other jobs scheduled in my area. Within a short time, he was here... clean vehicle, nice set-up... great guy to do business with. Went over the job with me, got it done, stayed with the quote - done in less than 1/2 hour. Made me a new, fully functioning key . Need a locksmith ? Don't hesitate - this guy is the guy you need to call ! read more

Twice now we've used Cheap Lock & Key to re-key all of the locks on a house and they are excellent in every way. It has taken months for me to remember to write a review, so I'm not 100% sure I remember his name correctly, but I'm pretty sure the guy who did the work for us both times was Mike. I especially like that both times he [1] was very considerate of our time by staying in communication with me about scheduling and showing up when he said he would (a simple thing that's not as common with locksmiths as you would think), [2] was very knowledgeable, thorough, and patient in explaining the pros and cons of various security options, [3] struck the perfect balance between offering reasonable up-sale options and trying to push us into costly extras we really don't need. This is the only locksmith company we'll be using from now on. Thanks again Mike! read more

Great service. We recently lost the only key to a vehicle that was over 20yrs old. They were able to get the key information from a third party company and made a new key in less than 15 minutes. They're reasonably priced also. I highly recommended read more

A big thank you to Richard who helped me open the door to a rental property on an hours notice, first thing in the morning. He was courteous and professional, and was clearly good at his job. I used the service of this company after shopping around. read more

My front door lock was totally jammed and this company immediately responded the next day. The price was reasonable and Richard was extremely professional! I was incredibly happy with the service and overall completion of the job. Would definitely recommend to my neighbors and colleagues! read more

Thanks to Mike at Cheap Lock and Key for helping out when we lost our only set of car keys and key fob. I contacted about ten locksmiths in the Tampa area and Mike gave me the best price quote. He met my son at the car as scheduled and created a new key and key fob for a fair price. I communicated with Mike several times during the transaction and I can tell that he values his reputation and that of his company very much. He lived up to every promise he made to me and we are very happy with the job he did. I highly recommend Mike for all your lock and key needs! read more

Richard came out within 30 minutes. He gave me the rate over the phone and there wasn't anything more. He didn't ask or need to know what kind of car I had before quoting me. Unlike all the other companies that I called, he didn't give me a starting quote and then say I'll get a final after they see my car. What he gave over the phone was it. I'm so appreciative because based on reviews of the other companies, they were going to try and rake me over the coals! Their starting rates to come out were his final rate. I'm sending referrals out to all I know. Highly recommend! read more

This owner has probably the worst communication and customer service skills.. I asked him to come and make me a new key for my car.. he asked me for address and gave me a time.. we set an APPOINTMENT!!!! He never showed up because he called me when I was at work and said he was confirming .. he never gave me a heads up that I should expect a call from him.. I can't look at my phone. My husband was at home waiting on him .. after work I called him and explained I was at work and if he could come at a later time .. all he could do was give me an attitude and ask me what I was calling him for.. pretty upset he was a no show also pretty upset he hung up the phone in my face.. if I could give him zero stars I would.. do yourself a favor and find someone reliable ... read more

Mike is very courteous and prompt. Best price and very quick service. Definitely recommend him. I called 7 companies and Mike was the best in price, quality and professionalism. He's my locksmith! read more

Wow, I must say that these people and this company is the absolute best. Last week our car just magically stopped starting up when we put our key in the ignition. After calling SEVERAL locksmiths and different companies that repair keys we finally found the one we will go to from now on out. Our technician and EXPERT, Mike, had the best personality and never gave up even when he thought that it was a bigger deeper problem then it was. After spending SEVERAL hours on our Mercedes Benz C230 he finally got the key programmed and ready to drive again! Words can't describe what a feeling a relief this brought to our ears when we heard the engine start after having multiple lock smiths just give up on our vehicle. Our Mercedes has a magnetic like smart key, which are known for problems, and this man worked his magic and brought our car back to life! He also works on the phone with other experts in different countries and different states to get their feedback on what the problem could be. When I say professional, I can not emphasize enough. I will highly recommend these people and if we could give them more than a 5 star review we would! Please people if you have any problems with your key fobs, ignition, etc go to these people! They have a sense of pride in their work and they will not give up until the job is completed! Thank you Mike for your hospitality! You were awesome! read more
