Re- Keyed my lock while I waited. reasonable rates. 5 Stars!

Got my two aftermarket car fobs reprogrammed. Much cheaper than the dealer and cut my emergency keys as well

We had issues with our front door key, it was just one of the keys that wouldn't work. We got that one keyed at Home Depot and even though it had been re-keyed there we still had issues. Went to Convoy Street Locksmith and haven't had any issues with the new key! We got prompt, quick service too! read more

Great service...very attentive, knowledgeable, and willing to help. I highly recommend this shop. He helped me get my car going again with an electronic key.

I changed all the lock hardware in the house and needed all the new locks (4) to be rekeyed to a single new key. Mike did the job quickly and at a reasonable price. He's my new lock guy. Thanks Mike! read more

I drive out of my way passing several hardware stores and locksmiths to this place whenever I need a key made. Why? Because EVERY TIME I go somewhere else I get a key that sticks in the lock and/or I have to jiggle a certain way to get my door to unlock. I like to call these "murder keys" because I always envision myself in some horror or suspense movie where I'm frantically trying to get into my house away from some murderer but my $#@! key doesn't work so I die a horrible death where I leave my bloody handprints on the door and my keys hanging in the lock for my family to find in the morning. To avoid this horrible fate, I come here, where every key cut slides into the lock and turns in one buttery smooth motion every time. Just got 6 keys cut today. Walked in, keys cut, paid and walked out in 5 minutes even though he was in the middle of helping someone else. Took the keys straight to the office and each one works beautifully. If I'm murdered it won't be because I couldn't get my door unlocked fast enough. One less worry. Thank you! read more

I was planning to stop by Home Depot to get key copied. As luck would have it, I spotted this locksmith on the way to where I was going, and quickly navigated my way back to the plaza where it sits in. I walked in, showed the gentleman the key I needed copied, and walked out two minutes later. He even gave me a free thicker style keyring which was much appreciated. Good service, good price, and good quality. I tested the key and it works perfectly. Great shop! read more

***TOTAL FRAUDSTER*** Ripoff. What a joker. I called this guy to ask about making a key for my car. He isn't properly registered so he couldn't make my key for my 2015 Mazda 6. Thank goodness. He sends me to his buddy who normally charges $85 for this fee, but he tries to charge me $145 for it. It was the weirdest convo hearing him tell his buddy, "Oh yeah... and hey... I charged him the "friend" rate at $145 OKAY... (wink wink)... " Well I called the friend direct later in the day. He straight up told me, to paraphrase, "I charge $85. He's ripping you off." read more

Called this company and the guy that answered was very impatient. Not everyone can explain immediately what they need and this guy not only was rude, impatient and did not let me speak or talking over me. but had no customer service skills. If you're not going to have patience with people you're in the wrong business. Some people could be slow at speaking due many reasons. He needs to remember that word of mouth can promote or destroy a business. He needs to check his attitude and his tone and not be a jerk. He ended up by hanging up on me. read more

Came here for a few spare keys and the person working the counter was fast and very friendly. The shop is very well laid out and I was in and out in no time. As long as you avoid the lunch/dinner rush (especially on weekends), parking in this lot should not be a problem. Overall A+ experience. read more

Mike is straight forward. He gave me a good price for cash to make 6 keys. Took all but 5 minutes, of that. I would recommend his work to anyone. read more

These Guy's are my go to Locksmiths. I have used them a number of times and never been disappointed. I have been having trouble with my mortised front door lock. The lock worked but if you left and tried to lock the door from the outside you could not lock the dead bolt from the outside. Jason arrived on time and 45 minutes later the lock worked better than when new. I will use them over and over. Rod C. read more

Even if he had not been successful In programming the 2004 Hyundai Sonata car fob that I had purchased from Amazon, I still would say I had a good experience with Mike, the proprietor of this locksmith shop. Mike was direct and upfront with the non-refundable labor cost and gave me a secondary option in case the car fob from Amazon didn't work. Luckily, Mike was able to program the new car fob using the computer software/programming machine that he had. We left his shop as happy campers. Thanks Mike! Tip- if you already have an original car fob with you and you are just programming a 2nd car fob, make sure that you let Mike know beforehand so that he can reprogram both at the same time for you. read more

Knowledgeable and skilled. I highly recommend them. I brought him an ignition for a scooter, cause the key was lost in a move. he was the only locksmith in town willing to tackle the job, after calling about 10 other locksmiths . He was able to help me out. Major key. the keys are on point! Give them your money. Thank me later. read more

The term "locksmith" is actually a derivation of the word "blacksmith." During the Middle Ages, blacksmiths were the artisans who created metal battle gear for the knights and their horses. However, it wasn't unusual for blacksmiths to also forge locks and keys. A locksmith is a professional technician who specialized in lock and key repair, can cut a new car key and program it to the car computer, can gain access to unlock doors, safes, windows, cars, and commercial business, everything that operates on locks and key tumblers system. Simple. Genuine. Quality expertise. Even learned a thing or two. Had a good experience. Recommended. read more

This guy is very dishonest with no morals at all. He didn't cut my key as he wanted to up sell an additional service that I didn't need or want. Because I refused the additional service, he refused to cut the key. What an a*@hole. read more

Went to his shop after going to other big spots I thought would be able to help me get a copy of my key. Ace Hardware weren't able to make a copy of the set of motorcycle keys that I needed and was referred to this spot. Was in and out in less than 5 minutes. The service was great and quick and the owner of the shop was kind. I definitely recommend this locksmith to anyone. read more

This company might be okay for commercial businesses, rental property or if you just need keys made or a rekeyed lock but BEWARE they will con you if they think they can make a QUICK buck off you. They have the potential to be very dishonest as was in my experience. I ended up having to go to Lowes to buy a new lock and the employee at Lowes rekeyed it there on the spot. But I'm out $45 because of Convoy Locksmith's bad business practice. read more

I went to home Depot and had keys made. It took 20 min and when i got home the keys didn't work. I went back and they remade the keys. It took 20 min and they were still effed up. So I used Yelp to find this shop. He made me a copy of my house key. It took like 10 sec to make. I was really sceptical after the home Depot debacle. I went home and tried it, it worked perfectly. I have gone back to him for every key copy i have needed over the last 5 years. I was a little annoyed when I realized I hadn't reviewed him yet. read more

**CAUTION** DONT GO HERE. Unless you want to get ripped off. Took Porsche lock assembly to get the tumbler swapped out to the new door assembly. Was told parts were missing. Turns out he damaged the parts during disassembly. Told me to come in and handed me 2 bags full of parts. And lied to me that the part I needed wasn't included in the assembly I purchased. Now I have 2 bags of parts that are useless to me. This business is not a locksmith. Just a key burner. read more

I came in to get a spare car key and fob made. Locksmith did it quickly at an affordable price.

This company charges $65 just to show up at your door. Then they charge you extra for labor to fix whatever the problem is. They do not give you an approximate estimate on the phone and claim that they must see the lock before they give you an estimate. Come on people locks are your specialty. After seeing their review on yelp I called to have a deadbolt replaced and end up paying more than $200 for it. When he gave me his invoice his charges were more than what he told me when he got there and his total was wrong and more than what the total should have been even if we used his numbers and he was charging me sales tax on labor! Luckily I had made a note of the prices and did my own calculation before I pay him. Now I noticed that most of the reviews are for getting keys made at their shop. Anybody can make a key. Home Depot makes keys too and it's cheaper. read more

I had an old broken key fob for a Volkswagen New Beetle so I needed somewhere that would copy my VW key. After going to a few locksmiths, I was directed to Convoy Street Locksmith where I got my key copied/cut and I was out the door within 10 minutes. After popping my old key fob chips into my newly cut key and fob the newly cut key worked great on the first try. Definitely coming back if I need more keys cut! read more

Mike really helped me out of a jam today, I couldn't have asked for better service! I stopped by his shop because the old, worn ignition key for my 4Runner kept getting stuck in the ignition and sometimes wouldn't turn at all. I almost was stranded in the parking lot at work yesterday (the horror!). First, he cut me a new key blank (no chip) to test, but this got stuck too--now I was stuck! He immediately called one of his mobile guys in from the field to help. Jeff had to tear the whole ignition lock cylinder assembly out of the car, disassemble it, remove some of the broken "split wafers" and put it all back together again. Now it worked great, even with my original worn key! Mike then cut another key (chipped) and reprogrammed it for me so I have a spare--for free! Next time you have a problem with a key or lock, go see Mike at Convoy Street Locksmith--you won't be disappointed! read more

I needed copies of my house key and was in and out in 2 minutes. So far, the keys have worked perfectly. If you have key needs and time on your lunch break, hit up Convoy Street Locksmith. read more

Visited this locksmith because I lost the key to my e-Bike which they do not keep a "master" key of back at the manufacturer. Owner was attentive, made recommendations and was ultimately able to create a new key for my bike. read more

This guy is great! I went in this morning trying to get copies of my office key. I had already been to a couple of places, none of which could service me. I go in, he looks at the key and tells me it's very uncommon. But he was confident he could make the key. He did his due diligence, took a book to confirm what kind of key it was so I wouldn't have to come back to have them remade. This has happened to me before with another lock smith. I just arrived at my office and both keys work out splendidly. Thank you! You are amazing :) read more

I had my only car key break into two pieces. I wasn't sure it was possible to replace. I brought my pieces here and he built me a new working key. Didn't take him long to make it. Might even fit better than my old one. I highly recommend this locksmith. read more

Mike was awesome, I called him in the morning to meet request his services and he was very friendly and helpful. I am usually disappointed when the professional service is good but when it comes to the customer service it all lacks. Mike was not just on time but actually early. Mike is definitely a professional, he took extra time to make sure that the lock was working perfectly and that I was happy with the way his work was done. As a supporter of local businesses I hope he stays in business for a long time. read more

This is my first yelp review, I felt I needed to share this great experience. I installed a security screen door at my rental, everything went great except the latch was off by 1/16 of an inch. I yelped locksmith and by luck I happened upon Mikes place. For two days I racked my brain, walked in explained to Mike and he came up with a couple of great solutions. The best option needed the use a Rivot Gun, I don't own one, with out hesitating Mike hooked me up with a box of misc oversized door strikes a Rivot Gun, Rivots, and away I went no exchange of money or info. Complete old school, good old fashioned customer service. The end result, install is done and working great. Thank Mike!! read more

Did not have the key type for the key I needed to make. Sucks when you actually go to a locksmith and they are supposed to have their stock on hand... hmmm should it be called lacksmith? Jk read more

After SD Hardware told me they could re-key my ancient deadbolts from our craftsman home, they backed out because we didn't purchase them from their store! Not to worry though, Mike at Convoy Street re-keyed them while I waited. On a Saturday no less! Friendly, professional, 5 stars all the way. read more
