This is my second time coming to Mr Keyman! The workers both times were super helpful and friendly :). Bryce helped me this time and he was very friendly and able to help me quickly. He told me that some mobile locksmiths have been flagging their business as being nonexistent or as closed to lure customers away from there, which is rude. They are not on google for that. But I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MR KEYMAN!!!! Pricing was very reasonable for this economy too :). I will definitely be returning and I took some extra business cards to hand out to family members because I was very happy with the service provided read more

The man did what he set out to do very professionally. A master of his craft, didn't even know he was there

Excellent service for a reasonable price. They were very helpful to remake a key and fix my key fob. Tested it on my car. They were very thorough. Nice people too! read more

Mr. Keyman is so awesome! John the owner and his manager Matt go over and above to serve their customers! A few years ago I lost my keys and the owner came to my car at my home and unlocked it He made a key right on the spot!! A few weeks ago I dropped my keys on the concrete parking lot and the fob broke. The manager, Matt had parts in the shop and fixed it in about 10 minutes! He made sure the key worked before I left the shop. Great service! I will keep going back and highly recommend to everyone! Thank you for such great customer service and for such high work ethics!! read more

John and his Team are GREAT! They have been cutting my keys for +9 years, everything from simple house keys to 50 year old classic car keys, motorcycle "chip" keys (Japanese, British, German, American) to the complex/full programming of car fob/chip keys (German, Japanese, American). The pricing is always much less than going to the dealer, and comparable or less than other locksmiths in the area. I've always received friendly, prompt, helpful, and professional service from the Team at Mr Keyman - I'll continue to only use Mr Keyman's services for any of my locksmith needs. read more

Mr. Keyman - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Oceanside, California

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to John, not just for the help he offered, but for the spirit in which he gave it in. John stepped in, not because he had to, but because he genuinely cared. He offered me advice to prevent from locking myself out in the future, and I intend on keeping the promise of purchasing that spare key. John was efficient, prompt, and personable. I couldn't ask for more from somebody when in a sticky situation, he made the experience so smooth! read more

We have a 2009 Ford Focus and the key we had got broken at the top part where it hooks onto key rings and such. So we purchased a new key and needed it programmed. I called about 20 different locksmiths to ask how much just to program. I called Mr. Keyman and they told me $65 for both the cut and programming. When I went in- the service was unbelievably fast! I was in and out in about 10 min max. They key was cut correctly and the programming was done in about 3 minutes! I will definitely use them again! read more

Best service. Fast and friendly service. Fair prices. And they have EVERY kind of car key and car fob in existence! Been coming here for years for valet keys, spare keys, and reprogramming of keyless entry key fobs. I wholeheartedly recommend this business to EVERYBODY!! read more

They have much more than making keys. They are knowledgeable, honest, and very friendly.

Matt correctly diagnosed my key problem, proposed a great solution, and continued to work on it with me until it worked perfectly. He really knows his stuff and is a gracious and fair minded person. read more

Yay! Mr. Keyman! The guys here are rock stars! Go out of their way to help you! Unfortunately misplaced my key at home. After 7 hours of tearing the house apart and 3 hours of back and forth with AAA and sending out a useless technician, Mr. Keyman came out the same day! Of course, I found my key, but my new key is better than the one I had! Now my alarm works properly! Mr. Keyman, you have a customer Fo' Life!!! read more

Mr. Keyman - New key!! What?! WHAT?!?! - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Oceanside, California

Highly recommend!!!! Provided quick service, in short notice, and was so kind. Professional, thorough, and affordable!!! John at Mr. Keyman for the win!!! Will use in the future and recommend to anyone who needs this service. Thank you!!!! read more

Love this place. You can no longer get keys easily made in hardware stores, it's either a self serve kiosk, or you have to chase down a human being, which is virtually impossible anywhere anymore. Walk into Keyman: how can I help you ? Keys cut in under 10 minutes, never once had a failed one over the last 2 years, thank you for your awesome service and not wasting my time bringing failed keys back. We really appreciate you. read more

I support local businesses and appreciate the customer service provided by the owner (born and raised here in Oceanside)! It's nice to get keys that are cut correctly the first time, keyed deadbolt locks the same for me, and also got me two new key fobs for my Lexus! Thank you! read more

Matt was so sweet and helpful! My car fob was broken and he did everything he could to fix my fob. Since it was broken pretty badly, he wasn't sure if what he did would work as a permanent solution. He offered me a few different ways in which I could go about fixing my problem. He did not try to sell me anything. Ultimately, my car fob worked better but I will likely need to buy a new one. When I do, I will be back to buy a new fob from Mr. Keyman because of Matt. Thank you, Matt! read more

Excellent place for all keys and more. The line was long and I see that as a good thing! They were pretty fast. A younger man was very nice, and professional. There was another man with no mask coming in and out the back who also asked if I needed help. Great place, they seem very knowledgeable too. read more

Mr. Keyman - They make all keys!! - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Oceanside, California

I needed a special key made so I went to Mr. Lehman on a recommendation. They had the key blank and the guy who made the key did it perfect. Highly recommend. read more

This place is awesome!! 13+ years I've been going here and they never disappoint. I've tried local hardware stores, Ace, Home Depot, etc., this spot is honestly the only place you can trust to give you a legit key cut. read more

Always use these guys for keys, and today I lost the key to one of my trucks. John was able to come out right away and make me a new key so I could get my rig back on the road, at a completely fair price. Highly recommend supporting this family business, thank you John! read more

Quick, professional, personable and very knowledgeable! Double checked that replacement fobs were working correctly by going out to my car in their parking lot....all good. Great shop!! read more

Great service and price. I needed a new key fob at an affordable price, and Mr. Keyman was exactly the ticket. They helped me quickly and efficiently. They let me bring my own key fob for a discount, too! read more

I lost my car key. Called the Subaru dealer who told me it would take 3-5 days to get a new key (for $251 or so and another $200 plus to program it). Also it would take a few hours to do the programming. Ugh. Went online and found positive comments about Mr. Keyman. Called them and John confirmed they had the key blank and could program it. All for less than half of what the dealer was going to charge. And they did everything in about a half hour! I will tell everyone who asks to use Mr. Keyman to replace lost car keys, fobs, etc. They were friendly, helpful and very professional. Matt was great too! read more

Hard to find an actual locksmith with a retail store. I walked in and it is a Classic Locksmith with the walls covered in keys, some looking almost a century old. After striking out at a couple of the key machines, lowe's and home depot; I started looking for a locksmith. All the ads that popup on yelp search and first few listing are for Mobile Locksmiths. I didn't want to call a mobile locksmith for a $5 office cabinet or sentry lockbox key. As soon as I walked in I knew they were going to have the key I needed. The owner was friendly and I was in and out in a few minutes. This will be my go to locksmith for all keying needs from now on. Great to find you! read more

I was planning on heading into a crowded Home Depot to have keys made when I spotted Mr. Keyman in the adjacent strip mall. The team was professional, courteous, and QUICK. I was in and out in 5 minutes. Time is money and you should never enter Home Depot solely to have keys made when an affordable and efficient option is next door. read more

These guys were great!!! 3 times to other locksmiths trying to get a replacement key for my sons ebike and they did it...so fast and professional AND IT WORKED!!!! Best $10 spent read more

I needed new car keys and stopped at Mr Keyman next to Home Depot on Vista Way at College Avenue. The customer service was outstanding. Instead of having me pay for the keys and handing them over, we walked out to my car and he tried every lock, lubricating a couple that were tight. He has my business for life. read more

Came here to get keys copied for locker for my old job. This was the only place that was able to copy the keys that needed copying. I went to The Home Depot and the Lock Experts that was right by S. Melrose and weren't able to copy them because they didn't have the type of key. The Lock Experts were the ones who recommended this place. There was only one employee working when I was there. He copied all the keys that I needed copying and answered waiting customers questions in a timely manner. I'd go here if no other place would not be able to copy a key. read more

Mr. Keyman was fast and professional. I really appreciate how they recommended a less expensive option because I didn't need all of what I thought I did when I arrived there. I did not need an appointment and they were able to get me in and out in less than an hour, even at the end of the day. I would highly recommend them anytime you were in the area or I think they were so good even worth driving down to get their service. read more

This owner is the real deal!! Very honest, kind, understanding and helpful. I just moved into a new house and had to have my house rekeyed and he did an excellent job. The price was fair. I wouldhave paid extra to have someone like him work on this for me. Try him out!!! read more

I love this place! Keys, Fobs, cases always helpful, fast, efficient and good prices!

Walking into the store is like walking into the last century! The place is immaculate and displays the largest collection of blank keys and safes I've ever seen in my life! Matt, the manager, greeting me with enthusiasm and fixed a problem I had with a key fob for my Ford Explorer in just minutes. The equipment is modern, and he verified that the key fob was working perfectly before I left. I will continue to drive past ALL the key stores from my home to Mr. Keyman for any need I have in the future! Thank you, Matt, and thank YOU, John who arranged the visit. These folks are A+++ read more

I locked the keys in my rental car and was skeptical about getting the car opened to retrieve them without putting a scratch on it. Both the rental car keys are wired together making it so that you cannot take them apart, so I didn't bother trying to contact the rental car company. I called Mr. Keyman and the owner took my call despite the shop being closed. He drove out to my home and was able to quickly unlock my rental without any scratches. What a lifesaver! I could not thank him enough and better yet, the car rental company will never know haha 10/10 would recommend Mr. Keyman to anyone in need of a locksmith. They are trustworthy, knowledgeable, experienced, and quick! read more

If I could leave zero Stars I would. This was my second time to this establishment. The last time I went in I had three keys cut two didn't even work and I had to go back. I needed a key and happen to be about a half a block away so I went back and thought I would give them a try. I got three keys cut which cost me $42. Are you kidding me $42 for three normal everyday keys nothing special. If you like your wallet don't show up here go to home Depot next door and get a key cut or better yet use a file in your garage. The person at the counter was also sort of a jerk I remember him last time just throwing sort of an attitude. Stay away from this place, however go next door for the bagels they are really good read more

My boyfriend and I got treated with extreme disrespect by Matt the Manager. We took our business to Brody Howard at Busy Bees because we refuse to give a penny to Mr.Keyman. Brody was so helpful and we will continue business with Busy Bee from now on read more

Quick fast and accurate. Also good fair pricing .. they stand by their work as well !

Walked in thinking I just needed a new battery for my older car remote, but tech saw my battery was fine. He took some fancy gizmo out to my car and did some Potter magic and all works well again in less time then I thought possible! Well done, my new key home read more
