Like all the other reviews have mentioned, this is a small, family owned business and a one-man team. I would suggest calling ahead to determine when he would be in the physical store as he does provide an accurate estimate. He helped me duplicate 2 set of keys in a matter of minutes for $3 each. Very reasonably priced and amazingly quick service. I would highly recommend this shop if you are not in a rush/ have a more flexible schedule! read more

Pros- local lock smith, professional, and affordable Cons- Local lock smith. Single staff. wait times can be long. called the shop asking if they did key duplications. I was a little surprised that I got Edwardo's cell phone number. We texted back a fouth. He seemed busy. I ended up following up the next day. He gave me a window of time of when he would be at the shop. When I arrived, there was someone else there who got their stearing column repair-- wtf. I didn't even know locksmiths could do that. Anyways, I got 2 sets of keys duplicated by Edwardo quickly. The keys worked smoothly, he polished them where there were no burrs. 10/10 would come again. Would I recommend to a friend? idk-- I guess it depends on the friend and if they were in a hurry. read more

Very nice owner. Explained several options for my problem. Wasn't pushy for which option to choose. Definitely recommend.

Very communicative, answered and responded my text messages. Reliable on the time he said he was going to be there. He was able to replicate the key I needed that I was told was not able to be done. It works perfectly! Definitely going back when I need keys to be duplicated. And will be recommending! read more

Great experience with Eddie. He is professional and responsive. He arrived 30 min before ahead and the sheriff was early at that day. I really appreciate otherwise I may missed the eviction. Very easy to communicate with and reasonable fee. read more

I used the Key Spot at the recommendation of a friend when the ignition lock cylinder on my car was sticking. Lalo came to repair the problem the next day. He was upfront with what he might need to do to repair the issue and the cost. He showed up on time and quickly was able to repair my jammed lock cylinder. All that was needed was a key that wasn't worn out from 35 years of use, who'd have thought! I highly recommend Lalo for all your key needs. read more

Great, friendly, efficient service. I'd recommend calling before going in. Eduardo also provides service on the go.

Non-reliable source. I eventually gave up on this business and found a spot in the WEST COVINA MALL that has similar prices and was actually available instead of misleading phone calls and an empty shop! So anyone with the same problem just go somewhere else. read more

Great service and very helpful in making me another spare key for my car so whenever missed placed them

They came to my rescue! They came out same day, worked in the rain and their price was really great. I'd recommend them in the store or mobile service. Really happy I chose them. read more

The Key Spot - They gave this cool Keychain with my keys. - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - El Monte, California

I called us the place and they where able to give me a price over the phone, went in, everything was simple and convenient 20 mins later, I had a key made, programmed and working again. It's nice to be able to go somewhere and talk to someone and get your key fixed. I tried calling one of those Mobile lock smiths, you get the run around, they ask you for your number address and than you get transferred to some "technician" who knows nothing about what you previously discussed with the other person and than they try to slot you in a time frame and charger you for the call, for coming, out, on top of $250 for a key! Call this place, bring your car if you can you'll be in and out in 30mins and save over $100! read more

Urgently locked out of our apartment and ended up calling a few places. He was quick to respond and had the most reasonable price. Would use and recommend again. read more

The ignition of my car kept locking so I couldn't turn my key fully to start my car. I called a few autoshops and they said it would cost $500-800 to replace and that the repair would take 4 hours and about a week to get the part in. My car ended up not starting at all the morning I had to take it in, so I called for a tow truck and the driver kindly suggested that I try a lock smith. Not sure why I didn't think of that to begin with! I found The Key Spot and Eddie's quote was so much cheaper than my mechanic, and within hours he bought the part and came over! He finished in an hour and my car is as good as new. Thank you Eddie! read more

Best service, honda wanted $1200 to fix my tumber for the ignition, key spot fixed it in 40 minutes for less than $400, great job

Our company van was stolen and dropped off at a gas station. They jammed a screwdriver in the ignition. Now I had 2 employees stuck! I sent Eduardo a pic and we chatted online. Then he called me and said he could be there in 25 mins. He even brought his wife so he could travel in carpool and get to us faster. (Hope she got a good dinner out of it) He was a really nice guy with a positive demeanor. I'm usually afraid when people have you over a barrel like this, they keep coming up with more reasons to charge you. But despite having to do a little extra legwork he didn't go over his price. And as a business person myself, I can totally honor and respect that! I hope I am never in that situation again but God forbid, if I am. Eduardo is my guy! Stay blessed my new friend. Thank You! read more

I really appreciate the fact that they were willing to get here so fast! He's does a great job! And his prices are reasonable. He's has a great personality and really easy to work with! I honestly recommend him!! Will recommend all my friends to him! Thank you soo much!!! read more

Reasonable pricing, fast quote response . Took care of my 2018 Lexus when the keys where locked inside . Excellent service .

I got next morning service I was checking around on the internet about 10 pm I chose them because they are in my city I like to support local. He was here on time and rekeyed 8 locks in just over an hour. Prices are reasonable $20 per lock, cheaper than replacements. He was the owner; pleasant, professional and efficient. I now feel safe again. I found someone had been in a drawer in my bedroom someone had keys to my house I don't trust anymore. read more
