John is a class act with a ton of knowledge. The best thing is he has a storefront and does not farm his work out. He's a real pro. read more

Just too expansive. Also I prefer business that people speak calmly and not loudly Mr .Keyman responded to my phone call promptly and I appreciate that read more

John, the owner was quick to respond for a quote request for a key fob duplication. Scott in the office was nice and quick prices are definitely excellent compared to competitors that are aftermarket, and much better than the dealership. read more

John is a good guy who helped us rekey our new home. We loved having the mobile service. John's communication was top notch. I had to cancel on him due to the house not closing on time, but John was understanding and rescheduled with no issue. He was courteous, efficient, and very reasonable. Thanks Mr. Keyman! read more

Simply the best! Had an issue with my key fob and received the best service at a fair price. Top notch customer service!

We went in shortly before 2 pm to have our locks to our doors re-done. We were happy that it was only $15 to change out each core. We needed 8 total to match. The guy at the counter said it would take an hour. So we left to get something to eat and do a little shopping. When we returned about 3 hours later, our locks were not done yet and he said it would take another half hour. We were a little disappointed because he admittedly got busy and completed other orders before ours. He didn't charge us for extra keys but we weren't keen on being told something would be ready at a certain time and it not being the case. In the past, we've come here to get extra copies of keys. They do seem pricier for cool designer keys than other places, but hey, sometimes it's worth it. Also, we showed up on Sunday because Yelp stated it was open... clearly not the case. It was closed. Definitely call ahead for hours. read more

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

My key no longer unlocked my front door. I could turn it at all. Mr Keyman came out after I sent photos of the deadbolt and door handle. He looked up the company who made my system and came prepared. He was able to repair the mechanism and I did not have to replace my whole fancy front door knob and lock! It works great now. And while he was here he ground out the inside where the bolt goes into the frame. It works better than it ever did! read more

My 2006 Toyota Tundra locks wouldn't work properly, the ignition key would come out no matter what position it was in, and the remote wouldn't work. Matt fixed it all up by rebuilding the drivers side lock mechanism, reprograming the passenger side lock, working on the ignition and fixing the remote. Everything works like new. Thanks, Matt. read more

John, the owner, aka Mr. Keyman, is a born ad raised local from Oceanside Ca. I cant tell you how many times this man saved me and his work ethic and dedication to his job and customers is stellar and I give him the utmost highest recommendation possible!! Matt is his right hand man and the two of them work so quickly and professionally and keys are alot of work and now days with key faubs and chips its devastating to loose a key or need to replace them up its expensive. Mr keyman is very reasonably priced and I owe him the best recommendation and review I could possiibly write! Rest assured you can trust in his work as it's the very best. He stands behind his work and inventory. I've never had any problems and when I do have a problem he solves it. I highly recommend Mr. Keyman in oceanside. You will never get a better and more professional keyman than him! read more

Mr. Keyman - Mr keyman to the rescue...the other half in my ignition...John aka Mr Keyman and Matt had my broken key repaired in a flash! - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Oceanside, California

I have to give him 5 stars because he cut my Toyota key for free, but he did make a mistake and blamed me for it. I gave him the correct bitting for my key, assuming 1 is the deepest cut, which was written on the sheet I gave him. He cut the key with my bitting assuming 4 was the deepest cut (which might have been the convention he used). If he had noticed that 1 is the deepest cut, or if he had used the 5-digit code I gave him, he would have cut the key correctly the first time. But he cut another key (for free) with the code he measured on my original key, which was simply the reverse of the code I gave him (i.e. replacing 1, 2, 3, 4 with 4, 3, 2, 1). read more

Wow! I truly believed the days of small business owners caring about their reputation were coming to an end...the ones who care are few and far between. He was respectful, on time and efficient. The owner cared about our future business, both referrals and the unfortunate, inevitable lockout haha.. I will recommend Mr. Keyman to anyone who needs a locksmith because I'm so impressed. I called 5 companies and the quote was 1/2 the price. Save time, trust my research and give them a call if you're locked out.. read more

Just locked my keys in my truck at Home Depot. Matt took care of me, made me a spa and the price was 100% reasonable. If you need a locksmith in the Vista area you need Matt! read more

ZERO RATING! WE ARE STRANDED! Just this week we had Mr. Keyman cut a new key for the Club that goes on my husband's truck. Today we loaded our bikes on our truck to go ride the bike trail on Camp Pendleton. We put the Club on the steering wheel before heading down the bike trail. We've just returned to the truck, inserted the new key into the Club, and it won't open! Why? Because the teenager that cut the key only cut one side of the key!!! And Mr. Keyman closed at 3:00. His voice message ends with an exclamation, "Mr. Keyman to the rescue!". We're now calling to find a locksmith who ANSWERS HIS PHONE! Mr. Keyman will definitely be paying our locksmith bill!!! Mr. Keyman has many customers in our senior community, and we will share our story of his horrendous service with everyone we know here. We can't believe their carelessness has left us stranded with dusk approaching. read more

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

Fabulous young man knew exactly what I was needing. Made my two keys and walked out to car made sure they worked. Great job!

I have a 2013 Lexus RX 350 and lost one of my fabs. I went here and received a LEXUS fab exactly like the original one I still had. Programmed in 30 minutes and all for $250! Dealer wanted over twice that! Works perfect! Couldn't be happier! read more

I went to Home Depot to get some keys made for work on a late Friday afternoon. They did not have the size key that I needed so I left annoyed. I came out and looked over to my left and saw they keyman. I ran over and they were just closing but the nice guy understood how badly I needed these keys for the weekend for my care-staff and so he politely asked if I wouldn't mind waiting outside since they were closing and so of course I did and about 15 minutes later I had the 16 keys I needed! Whew, they saved the day. read more

After the key to my 2017 Ford Expedition stopped working, I started looking around for a solution. I called the dealer where I bought it less than a year ago, and they would only give me a 10% discount. They said the key was $180 and to cut and program it, and additional $150. So, basically, the dealership wanted $330 for a new key- Really??? I then called Mr Keyman. He was very knowledgeable and said he could try to program my old key, or sell me a new one for $149. He assured me it was a Ford OEM key. When I arrived, there were several people ahead of me. However, he was able to attend to me withing a few minutes. After testing my old key, he said it was intermittent. I decided to go with a new key. It was an official Ford OEM key and he had it programmed within around 10 minutes or so. He was also able to give me the key-less entry code which I did not have before. Total price with tax: $162.36!! The key works perfectly and he saved me over $150!! This place is great! He said they do thousands of cars a year. They've been in business for 15 years and it shows. If you have a car key that needs to be replaced, don't hesitate to go to these guys- they are great!! read more

I had the best experience going to Mr.Keyman in Oceanside. The employee Matt worked super fast and efficient. His customer service was excellent and the price for my remote key was unbeatable. They saved me hundreds of dollars compared to if I would have went to the dealership for the same service. I see why they have 5 stars. I will definitely be back for more service in the future and I will be referring Mr.Keyman to everyone I meet! Thanks Again Mr.Keyman!!! read more

They've never let me or the Veterandogs down when it comes to getting keys especially difficult ones that are hard to find

John got back to me quickly and since we contacted him before 5:30, he was willing to come out to where I was after their closing hours to help out. I had lost my car key and it was my only copy! He was able to quickly create a new copy with programmed buttons as well as a regular key without buttons. I'm so grateful for his quick and quality service. If I need keys of any kind, I will definitely be coming back to him! read more

Mr. Keyman in Oceanside was recommended to me by Home Depot, because I was looking for a part to an old lock that is no longer made. I actually thought it was going to be a wasted trip, but to my surprise they actually had it! Not only did they have the part, but also cleaned up my old door knob and made sure it was working properly. I left a very happy customer! Not only did I get what I needed, but saved approximately $40! Also I need a new key fob for my car. I can buy it there have it programed to in about 20 minutes for $200 cheaper than the dealership! Great experience! read more

Prompt and trustworthy. Very knowledgeable and gave us important information about the doors in our new home. I know that must sound strange, but some doors actually have a "trick" to opening and closing them without breaking the lock or handle. I know!! I didn't know that either! Lol. read more
