Sherman saved me when I locked my broken FOB key in my car. Not only did they open my car up but they were able to program a new key fob for my Mitsubishi! They are the only place in town that can provide key fobs for most vehicles and reprogram them!! Charge was reasonable too! Same day service too and they are so knowledgeable and so nice! Call them first! I am so happy I did! read more

Sherman security lock was polite and friendly when my daughter locked herself out of her car. they gave me a reasonable timeframe and price. If I ever refer anybody for a lock out experience it will only be Sherman!!!! read more

I called at 10 am today to have our bedroom unlocked and a technician was here at 11:15 am. He got the door open with no damage and created an extra key all in about 15 minutes! We are very impressed and highly recommend this business. read more

Great price and quick process. Todd and Jack made rekeying process very easy after a new home purchase. Got three locks rekeyed with four copies of new keys. read more

Thank you! Very helpful for resolving my issues. Will use again if I need help. Needed a receipt for a lock out and they helped guide me through the process of getting it for my insurance to refund me. read more

I had them come out after closing on my new house to change the keys. They also made a key for a digital deadbolt that had no key left by previous owner. Their tech was nice enough to adjust my slider lock so it locks more securely. Appreciate him! Now all my locks have a single key except the digital deadbolt. Easy company to work with. Recommend them! read more

I was locked out of my basement unexpectedly, I didn't even realize the door had a lock! I called them at 1pm, they gave me an estimate for the cost and provided options. It wasn't an emergency, so I asked them to just come out when they could. The gentleman was out here and finished by 3pm! I was very impressed with the quick response, the professionalism, cleanliness, and service provided. The cost was not too expensive, either. I highly recommend this company. read more

I had the keys to my BMW stolen and i thought that having AAA would be a huge stress relief for me but unfortunately they chose this place as the locksmith to handle my key replacement needs. when i got the call from whoever it was from this foul company, he tried to tell me that someone had already called about my car and that a scam service showed up and tried to work on my car for hours and did nothing but messed up the computer in my car and that it wouldnt even be driveable anymore. he said that his company showed up after this scam comany did and was not able to cut a key bc of the faulty locksmith work before. i told the man that he was wrong that ive never had anyone come out and do any kind of work on my car locksmith wise as well as anything else and this man and i literally ended up in a whole argument about it. come to find out by the end of the call ( because he used my neighbors name ) he was getting me and my neigbor mixed up bc they used to have the same year make and model bmw that i do but the colors are different.. i tried explaining that to him and he refused to believe that he was mistaken..what should have been enough for him was the fact that my neighbors name is shawn and there is no one named shawn on my AAA policy so besides the fact that i had figured out his confusion already it would have literally been impossible for him to be speaking about my car being that the owner of my bmw is not a shawn.. little fun fact, the car has to be legally registered to you for AAA to accept the claim and payout for any kind of locksmith services..but not even that WELL KNOWN fact was enough for this man. so long story longer, this man literaly argued with me despite being completely in the wrong and was proven so many different ways but he also was so forth coming with A TON of my neighbors personal information and didnt even hesitate to try and fill me in about all kinds of not my business. THE MOST UNPROFESSIONAL A****** THAT I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH. IF YOU HAVE AAA LIKE I DO DEMAND THAT THEY SEND YOUR CLAIM SOMEWHERE ELSE THIS DUDE DOESNT WANT THE WORK ANYWAYS HIS RESOLUTION WAS "JUST CALL BMW" if i could give zero stars i would. read more

After losing my electronic Lexus key, owner Todd called back with great news that he had a fob in stock, and could also come over that same day. Save me about $300 over what the dealer in Fife would have charged. Knowledgeable, fast, friendly, and great service, at a great price... what more could you ask? read more

Daughter lost our only key fob at the store. Sherman took a possible stress filled situation and immediately put us at ease, and quickly and affordably created two new key fobs for our car. The manner and tenor of how they handled us was a master class in customer service. Highly highly highly recommend. read more

Simple job--replacing a door lock. Came when he said he would, did the job for the price agreed upon. Would use again.

I lost the only key to my mailbox and needed someone to come out and change the lock for me. I called two places before I called this place and none of them could fit me in anytime soon. Todd answered the phone on my first call. Within three hours I had a new mailbox lock installed and three keys. Obviously, very fast and professional service. As far as value, I have no idea how much the other places charge but this was $150 including tax. I would use them again. read more

Great service.! I recommend them for thurston county area. They service most cars and trucks

Absolutely awesome. I needed a new key to my car and these guys were great and came right out and fixed it all up and so fast I was even on time for work! Thank you!!!! read more

Locked out of truck. Went to get a quote and they responded within minutes through the Yelp quote message. I really appreciate it. read more

TLDR: Sherman Security & Lock is competent, thoughtful, and the only Locksmith I will ever call or recommend while I live in Thurston County. I don't know if I have written a yelp review before, but I needed to for these two champions. Sherman's dispatch, Todd, (did not catch title, sorry!) and their Locksmith, whose name I did not catch unfortunately but will talk about later, dealt with me at my worst, in absolute crisis mode. I had to call as many locksmiths as I could FROM Seattle to do a job in Tumwater. I unfortunately sent at least one other "locksmith" "company" from "the area" to help some people I locked out a couple hours prior. Todd was the second or third dispatch I talked to and he was calm, thoughtful, and exquisitely blunt. He said Sherman was IN LACEY and a Locksmith from Sherman can be there in 20 minutes because they were actually IN LACEY. I said we already tried a couple places I found on google before Sherman and their Locksmiths are XX amount of minutes away. He said they're not reputable and to be careful of scam "locksmiths" you find on google. Here are the important things that Todd told me the first time that I should have listened to more carefully: BEWARE OF SCAMMERS -They will say they're local and they're not, the dispatch is on the other side of the country -The dispatch will call someone """local""" and say they're an hour away and you may not have a """locksmith""" for 2 days| -The person they send out to you WILL NOT KNOW HOW TO PICK LOCKS, they will drill any lock you present them with and charge you for it, HARD. Before we hung up, he gave me the most important piece of advice from the whole dang fiasco: If the other guy gets there first, tell the person who is there, "if they try to drill the deadbolt, SEND THEM AWAY." Told the locked out party, immediately, and the other "locksmith" showed up a few minutes later and tried to get into the garage door to avoid drilling the deadbolt (his only other option, great call, Todd) and did a pretty substantial amount of damage to the garage door. Then Sherman's Hero Locksmith showed up. They got the locked out party in in just a few minutes (door lock 1000% intact), and I heard nothing but glowing reviews about how well he treated everyone involved. While the Locksmith from Sherman got the lock taken care of, I got a call from dispatch about how upset they were with me that "their technician got there and someone was already working on the lock." They gave me an absolutely unintelligible company and technician name and I asked them if their guy could pick the deadbolt. The dispatch said no, their only option was to drill the deadbolt. I said absolutely not and resolved I it as kindly as I could. It turns out the technician from the scam dispatch was extraordinarily upset with me, the locked out party, et al. because he drove so far and did all this work and this other COMPETENT LOCKSMITH was on their way already. Between the time I got the call from the obscenely upset scam dispatch until they hung up on me when I denied their service, two things happened: *The snake oil "locksmith" tucked tail and ran basically as soon as Sherman's Locksmith showed up* ***Sherman's Locksmith had already finished the job and provided extraordinary service while they did it*** There's will be only one Locksmith in my phone for Thurston and I'm proud to say it's Sherman Lock & Security. read more

Sherman security and lock is probably the best mobile locksmith you can find - they are very knowledgeable, have impeccable professional ethics and excellent customer service. They service a wide variety of cars. We had them work on a retro land rover and they had to work extra time to modify the key while no one else would do it. They were still reasonable and I cannot say enough good things about how professional and courteous they were. read more

Mobile service, offered a AAA discount. We lost ALL our keys to a keyless car. I called 6+ locksmiths that could only duplicate an existing key. ACE Hardware can make a key as well, but again, only if there is an existing key. Sherman Security erased my prior keys, coded two new keys, and cut the emergency entry key in less than two hours. I would highly recommend them if you need any keys made duplicated or re-keyed. read more

Prompt, precise, polite, professional.The four P's I look for when grading a service. This business met all four categories. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a locksmith. read more

Let me tell you about Sherman Security. First, ignore my stupidity, I locked myself out. Now the next part what you need to know. I called friends and what they shared was the sooner I can get a keysmith was in the next 48 to 72 hours. But I need the key right away. So Sherman Security replied to my post within minutes. Then, I accepted his offer. Here is the fun part. One he came with his arsenal ready to go. I explained the incident. Of course, for security I identified myself to prove that I am the owner, very assuring of his part. Next, he embarked on a process that took few minutes to unlock. The next part is my favorite, he even taught me the best practices how to prevent that to happen again. Anyway, I strongly recommend Sherman Security & Lock. Fast and Reliable. Utilizing the latest technologies on the market. You have an automated door? No problem, he will take care of it. read more

Sherman Security & Lock - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

I am updating this because when I asked this company to come and rehear my home for the third time they decided they were no longer going to respond to my calls and never gave me an explanation of why they did not come back to do the job they gave me a quote for. I had no trouble working with him the first two times and they were excellent. Obviously communicating clearly with a customer about why you won't work with them is not something they do. Ghosting is easier. I will never work with this company again nor will I recommend them again. read more

Ha saved me 2 times one of which my husband lost my only transponder key to my car. Will use them everytime he does

I needed a rekey after buying a house and I got a response with a quote within the hour and was able to get an appointment on closing day 2 days later. Todd is super knowledgeable and was able to explain the electronic fob lock that was on the door I didn't know about and even fixed the screen door that wasn't latching properly. Price was totally reasonable too. read more

Great timely service from Jack. A new auto key was made on the spot! Cheaper than expected. Excellent customer service. 10/10 would recommend. read more

So I called Sherman Lock after attempting to program a keyless remote for my car... Unfortunately my car had an aftermarket alarm system that disables the started if the alarm isn't deactivated. Well my attempt to program failed, my cars alarm was blasting every time I opened the door, my neighbors were complaining and I couldn't start my car. I called them and the gentleman on the phone talked me through how to disable my alarm (not gunna reveal how, want to keep a secret). He did this just out of a willingness to help, nothing else. Hopefully once my next pay check comes around I can give them a call again to come out and program my remote properly. Thank you so much for helping me! If you need a remote or keys made for you car give them a call, straight forward, kind and honest. Exactly what you want to find when you're looking for help! read more

My key broke in my house lock and they were at my house within 20 mins. Fast, friendly, professional (wore a mask), and affordable. Very grateful for their excellent service! read more

Absolutely poor interaction. Owner wanted to charge his standard service fee for 3 mins of work. Lied about return calls. Only interested in gouging the public and not building his future business with good customer service. If I could give 1 star I would. read more

I used Sherman Security and lock on 3/28/23 for a mobile rekey on my Lexus when I was locked out and had no spare key. Same day appt. They were on time, professional and went above and beyond! He even helped me change my car battery because I didn't have the tools! Highly recommend!! Family owned too!!! read more

Guy was here in under an hour. Got everything all fixed up, and no judgement at all for losing the keys! 10/10

I highly recommend Sherman Security! My husband and I were locked out of our home on accident (faulty garage door-- it opens/closes on its own sometimes) on a Sunday afternoon around 3pm...after an hour of trying to get inside, I called Sherman Security expecting them to be closed. I got ahold of Todd who took my info and gave me the quote and told me it'd be about 45 minutes...this would put me at at least 2 hours being locked out and it was an emergency situation where I needed to get inside ASAP. I let him know the emergent situation and that I needed faster service....Todd shows up 15 minutes later and rushed to the door and got us in the door within minutes. I'll add that we also live outside of the Oly city limits...sticks-ish. Super professional, friendly and accommodating!! He saved the day lol 100% recommend, I can't say enough. Thanks Todd!! read more

I called on Monday to get my vehicle's ignition cylinder lock replaced. Todd answered and was very helpful and friendly. He said he was probably unable to make it that day but would call the next day when he was on his way. He gave me the quote over the phone and I happily agreed to it. When I hadn't heard anything by Tuesday afternoon, I called and left a message. Called again Tuesday evening and left another message. I called this (Wednesday) morning and left another message. It's close to end of day Wednesday and nothing. I'm being ghosted by a locksmith! I hope others get more responsiveness but be forewarned of what happened to me. Will update if I ever get a return call. UPDATE: Todd called back and apologized profusely. He inadvertently marked my number as spam. He is scheduled to be here tomorrow. Will update this review once the work is complete. UPDATE 2: Todd showed up as promised. Unfortunately the issue is not something he could repair (not his fault). He did not charge us a show up fee as he didn't return the call or show up before, which was appreciated. Will definitely call Todd again should the need for a locksmith arise. read more

I spent about five hours calling various locksmiths to see who could reasonably make a duplicate key for my car and program the key fob. Sherman Security & Lock stated it was something they could do over the phone. They are supposedly located in the local area. It's impossible to tell since they don't appear to have a brick and mortar building. The locksmith stated he would contact me on Wednesday. No phone call from Sherman Security & Lock. I called again to ensure the service was still a go on Thursday. The gentleman that answered the phone assured me that the service was still on. He didn't mention not coming for service on Wednesday at all but said he would come on Thursday afternoon. He even asked if he gave me an hours notice, if that would be enough time for me to meet him at my car. I said yes of course. Thursday came and went with zero efforts from Sherman Security & Lock to contact me. A totally unreliable locksmith. It's so easy to call or text even to just said you are unable to do the service. It cost me two days of waiting to get keys cut for my car. I finally contacted the dealership and to my surprise, the dealership was even less than the $378 for the key & $ 78 for the key fob plus whatever programming fee Sherman Security & Lock would have charged. Beware of any business that will ghost you and not show once, let alone twice after committing to complete a service. Lame.... read more

Great service! Called Saturday morning and he was at the house in 15 minutes and done within 2 minutes. Very professional! Will certainly call back for any locksmith needs! read more

Todd was quick, efficient, respectful and considerate. He came after hours, removed his shoes without being asked, opened the lock immediately, even took a minute or two to give my dog a pat on the head. I would highly recommend him anytime you need a locksmith! read more

I couldn't get my key out of the lock after turning the car off so I called AAA. How lucky was I to have had Sherman Security & Lock come out. This occurred this past winter in Olympia. Yes I know it's almost June, but that's how wonderful of an experience I had that I just couldn't forget about it; so here's my review six months later. I live in Las Vegas but spent a covid year in Olympia. It was late at night, it was cold, it was raining and dark (it was a dark and rainy night) out in the boondocks near Steamboat Island when my car key refused to budge. Sherman came out. One young man. He was super professional and masked. He worked and he worked. Then called for backup. Not only did Sherman duo not give up, they worked until they had an extra key made and fixed the aggravating problem. Kind, persevering, and professional. Sherman fixed it and said not to hesitate to call them if I had any future problem with the starter. Not sure but it might have been a son and dad that came out. All I know is that they were incredibly gracious and dedicated to their profession - and that I could get to where I needed to be in the morning! Thanks Sherman Security! read more

I called in a crisis and the response I received was calm, practical, and extremely helpful! I did not end up needing dispatch because the person on the phone talked me through the solution to my problem remotely. It warmed my heart to have someone who was willing to take time to make sure I was taken care of just for the sake of it. Highly recommend! read more

I would give a 6-star if there s that option. Fast response on Yelp when I reached out for appt availability. Was able to do a next-day fix at 7pm which most places closed already. Took care of my lock problem within 15mins. Would definitely choose Sherman Lock again if needed (hopefully I don't lost more keys....) read more
