A True Blessing in a Stressful Time I am writing this with a heart full of gratitude. Recently, I dealt with the immense stress of having my car keys stolen while I was out shopping. When I called the dealership, I was quoted a staggering $700 for a replacement for my car--a price that felt truly overwhelming. By the grace of a friend's recommendation, I found my way to Smiley Fort Lauderdale Locksmith & Key Center, and I am so glad I did! They were able to provide a brand-new key and clicker for a fraction of the cost. They even offer a spare key (without the clicker) for just $50. I want to give a special thank you to Max. He treated me with such kindness and professional respect. It wasn't just about the keys; it was about the wonderful, honest way he conducts business. I left feeling empowered, relieved, and so very happy. If you ever need a key made, please don't let the dealerships discourage you! Go see Max. He is a master of his craft and a truly good soul. With love and appreciation, Rajee Narinesingh read more

The business' response is a lie - no advance pricing, not a high security lock 1 schlage deadbolt that can be easily bumped for $300 Beware read more

My key wouldn't turn in the ignition and kept getting stuck. Our backup key wouldn't work either. I found Smiley Locksmith through Yelp and Google Reviews. Max, the owner, answered the phone - he was helpful and responsive and offered a fair out-the-door quote for an ignition repair, with no surprises or extra fees. I price-compared with another locksmith for reference before moving forward so I knew it was a reasonable price. Jesse, who serviced my car, was professional and efficient, and kept us in the loop about his progress. My ignition now works great - very grateful to have it fixed and would definitely work with this company again. read more

After phoning and ensuring car FOB was available, made appt. to purchase same and have it programmed. Staff was professional and friendly and helpful to me and to everyone who entered the shop. Same FOB would have been twice the price at car dealer. Highly recommended for cost savings, but, more especially, for high quality of service. read more

They quoted $90 to cut and program a key blank I already have. I think that is excessive for something that takes about 10 minutes. I can't comment on the quality of their work because I rejected that quote. It's a spare key. I'm not locked out or stranded. read more

After 15 months of being told "No, you can't put a smart lock on metal hurricane doors" -- by everyone, including the company who installed them -- I finally found Smiley Locksmith, and I cannot recommend them enough. From the moment I spoke with Max, Nir, and Douglas, everything changed. I explained my situation and all the reasons I had been told it couldn't be done. Without hesitation, they said: "Yes, of course you can!" That kind of confidence and know-how is rare. They carefully walked me through my options and explained exactly how they would install the lock without compromising the door or its warranty. When I asked, "When can we do this?" Max responded, "How about tomorrow?" You just don't get faster or more professional service than that. Douglas showed up right on time the next morning, fully briefed and ready to go. He installed my Lockly smart lock with precision and care -- and even left the area cleaner than he found it. I'm beyond thrilled with the results. Smiley Locksmith delivers the kind of dedication, knowledge, and expertise that gets it right the first time. Absolutely a 5-star experience from start to finish. read more

these guys are awesome!I was trying to find a place that would simply cut my emergency blank for a keyless start car. Every other place either wanted to sell me a whole entire new key or wanted me to buy their key before cutting. I came in asked to have my key cut and they delivered exactly what I asked for. In and out in 10 minutes and fair price. read more

Latoya and Max were amazing! I needed a lost key had the numbers and make of key they knew exactly what to do without an entire rekey! Awesome above and beyond service!! Highly recommended great prices ! read more

They are extremely nice and helpful. I needed a new key for my 2008 Honda Civic since my old key FOB had broken and the "insides" went missing. I originally called for them frantically since I could not find my spare key. Latoya was able to schedule someone to come out in a couple of hours. I then found the spare key so I called back to cancel the appointment and she understood completely and was not rude because I was cancelling the services. We then spoke about me bringing the spare key out to their shop to make a new one. When I arrived, she was very helpful and quick in getting me on my way. Thanks so much!!! Will highly recommend them!! read more

I didnt want to update this review because it makes you look worse. The blank I bought from you after you messed up my special order blank was also incorrectly cut. I was just going to go away but you had to defend your terrible shop. So let's recap. I brought my own "special order" blank, you miscut it and screwed it up. I then bought your blank on your recommendation, and you still cut it incorrectly. So that's twice you miscut a key, one on my blank and one on your own. To repeat, neither cut key matched the original! Just own up to your mistakes man. Accountability is what I wanted from my locksmith, not excuses a year after I visited your shop. Your business is an example of one that deserves to fail in a free market because it is just terrible: Terrible product, terrible service, incompetent employees, and management that doesn't own up to mistakes. I've since gotten another "special order" blank and got it cut accurately AND the first time, at a vending machine inside Publix. I winter in South Florida, I hope the next time I'm there something better comes into your retail space, like a Pollo Tropical. read more

I needed help installing a new lock due to my old one sticking. I can't say enough good things about how smiley locksmith met and exceeded my expectations. Quick reply. Honest help. Will absolutely recommend and use again if I need a locksmith. read more

I bought my Ford Explorer about a year and a half ago. The fob that it came with never worked correctly. The Ford dealership was going to charge me about $450 to have a new one made. And I was gonna have to jump through hoops to get an appointment, yada yada yada... Fast forward to a year and a half later, my coworker told me about this place. I must have driven by it 10,000 times over the last 30 years, and never looked in that direction. Latoya grabbed this old thing, and made me two new ones, and showed me a couple cool tricks with the fob. Took her less than 30 minutes. These guys are amazing, but I must warn you, don't look in Latoya's eyes for too long. Her smile will captivate you! I have a few more things that need to be programmed in my explore, I just didn't have time to do it today. I most absolutely will be returning. I would strongly recommend these guys! read more

Bought a new remote for my Mazda CX-5 online thinking I could program it myself. NOPE! Instructions said "call a locksmith", so I called around and picked these guys based upon their Yelp reviews. Staff was friendly. Price was fair. Service was quick. Highly recommend. read more

I went into Smiley locksmith in Ft Lauderdale, on Oakland today. The owner met us with a smile on his face and prompt service. He cut a new car key for our 2014 malibu and programmed the fob, all in about 6 minutes!!! I'm sure a dealership would have been 3x's the price, and who knows how long of a wait time. I would recommend Smiley locksmith hands down. The owner was friendly, knowledgeable, fair, and efficient. Nice to see good people offering a good, ethical business!!! Thank you Smiley!!! read more

Fair prices, Quick, quality and service. I would highly recommend Smiley Locksmith to family and friends.

These guys are great!! I've had a digital front door lock installed and they even made spare keys from the truck. Great service from the tech and Latoya in the office! Thanks so much read more

I have a 1979 automobile with an oddball key. They were able to provide the blank and produce the key in a matter of minutes. It was excellent service. This saved me the hassle of ordering a blank online for much more money, and then taking the blank to a locksmith. read more

I needed a dupe key fob plus programming for it. Spoke to LaToya & she quoted the least expensive pricing & even provided a fair discount fir multiples. Quick response time & very helpful! Tu so much! :-) read more

Jones was awesome. I left my camper keys in Atlanta. He made me two new ones while I waited at the shop. I was up and running in no time

Orrette was prompt, personable, and knew his business. In a trice he had my front door lock working just like it should. Although I thought $95.00 was somewhat high for the time it took, I consoled myself with the fact that he had the knowledge needed. Michaael B read more

The name is Smiley Locksmith and I'm not sure if bears the name Smiley because of the name of the owner or the two face smiling gentlemen I met when getting some keys made. I inadvertently stumbled upon this place while looking for some additional car key blanks. I had purchased one from my car dealer for the astonishingly high price of $28.00 and thought I had gotten robbed, which I quickly found out I had because I got the exact same identical key at Smiley Locksmith for $8.00, and what's more, unlike the car dealer, he cut the key too. I also purchased some other key blanks for my condo & etc. which were much less expensive than I would pay at any hardware store and the best part is that they were all perfectly cut and removed of any of those cutting burrs most other key cutters fail to remove. The best part however is in their stock. When it comes to keys, they seem to have it all; a vast assortment of varying key blanks along with car remotes & etc. I found Smiley Locksmith to be the best locksmith store I've ever dealt with and because of that, I'm going Five Stars. read more

These other reviews must be paid for considering how poorly this business has treated my family. My mother went in to ask them to fix a key that they had supposedly fixed several months ago. They gave varying excuses as to why the key was broken -- blaming everyone from my mother to the key manufacturer in order to avoid accepting responsibility for shoddy work. That was bad enough, but then the customer service representative called my mother a LIAR, and told her to STOP TALKING, because "every word that comes out of her mouth is a lie." Even if they didn't want to accept responsibility for a broken key, who in their right mind speaks to customers in that way?? Not that anyone in my family would ever try to patronize this business again, but this front desk worker with zero authority then tried to ban my mother from the store. She called the owner who said he would speak to his employee before hanging up on her, and is not avoiding her calls. Would rate 0 stars if possible.v read more

We just had to call Smiley the other day because my son locked his door and we could not find any of the keys. Again, they were so fast and efficient. From the time I called, to getting a call when he was on his way, to him arriving and getting the door opened. Another great experience. I will always recommend them. read more

Went in to have a spare key made for my Jeep, called ahead and they answered quickly saying they could help. When I walked in they were nice and helpful, they had my key made and I walked out in under 15 minutes. Great service and also a great price compared to dealerships. 10/10 would recommend read more

These guys came and replaced the lock on my mailbox within the hour. Guy was very friendly. Later that day, I stopped by their location to make a copy of my car key. Would recommend read more

They used old locks and they sent a man ill equipped. The price was cheap enough, but you get what you paid for.

Great guys....Great service!! car trunk was jammed shut, but with a little muscle & pressing on the right spots they were able to pop it open......No Charge. Would use them again in a Heartbeat! read more

prompt service and on top of everything! They continue to support you even after installation has occurred and service has been delivered.

I was dreading having a key made for my truck since everything I read online said I needed to have my second key(which I didn't have) in order to do it yourself...then some keys wouldn't activate certain features like puddle lights, etc. The dealership wanted to charge dealership prices but I thought I was stuck. I came in to Smiley just to ask a question about the keying process and left in less than 10 minutes with a spare key, finally. Excellent service, glad to have a local locksmith to trust now. read more

My quote by owner and secretary was incorrect, showed up 4 hrs late, there 40 minutes. Didn't clean up after new install. I was going to used again but I will not. No attention to detail read more

Douglas was quick and efficient. He did good work at a reasonable price. Our law office would recommend using Smiley Locksmith.
