came out to my house to prog a key fob for my BMW. was on time and everything works as it should. I'm very happy.

THIS is the guy you want to call! I first made a mistake and called another locksmith off the internet, and that other guy dragged the job out for many days telling me about various delays... and never did anything. After giving up on the other guy, I found Empire Locksmith... and everything happened like it should. Will was quick, very knowledgeable, prompt and courteous. And besides that, he was less money than the other guy! So, give Will a call or a text. This man knows his stuff. THANKS, WILL! read more

Good service super fast service had a few keys get wet and couldn't use any of my cars and did all of them gave me free keychain read more

Empire Locksmith - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

Will came and programmed and replaced a key fob for me. He came on time, very friendly, the job was done quickly and the price was incredibly reasonable. It's very hard to find qualified people to do this outside of a dealership so I am happy he was recommended to me. read more

Excellent professional service by Will. He went through the ABC's regarding my door locks and ignition and didn't try to upsell me on a service that I didn't need. I drive an older car and the keys were worn down. Will replaced the key, programmed a new fob and got me out of there in less than an hour. The cost included his labor and parts which in my opinion was well worth it knowing my key will now work on my driver's side and passenger side door as well as get my ignition started. Will is very knowledgeable, makes it easy to understand what's going on, and he got the job done. Highly recommend read more

Amazing service. Will recommend to all my friends. Owner is very helpful! If you need any locksmith service don't hesitate to come here!

Will was great. 2023 Ford F150. I bought used and only had 1 key. I bought some random keys online non OEM. I tried to program it like you used to be able to. But for newer cars you need to plug into the computer. I put in the project in Yelp this morning and he got back to me quick. He programmed them with NO problem and was fast! Also!!! I bought OEM wireless entry keypad. I tried on my own too but no luck. He was also able to program that. Dealer was going to charge so much. I couldn't be happier. If I knew he carried and stocked OEM keys I woulda just bought off him. I strongly recommend him. Oh yeah, he also has the key cutter too. I wish I knew of him with my other cars that I've spent an arm and a leg at the dealer for same stuff. read more

William Garcia of empire locksmith is a professional.. I run an auto transport company and when a customer's ignition was locked up and we couldn't get the car off the trailer, we called on two other technicians to come out with different companies. These companies spent hours doing nothing but damaging the ignition cylinder. Within 5 minutes on the scene William was able to diagnose the issue and give me a firm rate for the fix. I came out of pocket to handle this for my customer- and could not have felt any better doing it than I have with good people like William! Thanks again man! Number saved! read more

William saved my vacation. We parked at Ontario airport, on our layover in Houston I got a call from the airport telling me all the windows were down. I called OnStar cause you figure that's what you pay for, they did absolutely nothing, offered to tow but only if I had the key on site, which of course was in my pocket. They basically said, sorry, no luck. I called AAA and they couldn't tow without me present to prevent possible theft. I called multiple dealerships would could not make keys. I got the number of a trusted locksmith from a friend and he immediately said, "sorry man, I can't do this, but my friend Will can" talked to will within a few minutes and in less than a few hours he had made a key and rolled our windows up. Seriously could not thank this man enough, writing this from the beach in Cancun because I'm so grateful. Thanks! read more

Empire Locksmith - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

I was happy at first, the job got done, everything was well with my vehicle, got a key with fob due to previous owner not having the fob. Empire locksmith came out and gave me a new key, even gave me some great suggestion about fixing the door lock (which didn't work). A month passed and my car would not start, worst is that I was at the SOFI event and had to get my car towed to a shop. They inspected and couldn't not find anything. Spent 500$ between tow truck and mechanic ( the tow was expensive since it was after 12:00am). Only to find out that it was a bad key. The key was the one that wasn't letting the car start, when I put the original the car turned on like nothing. I contact empire on Saturday but said that he wasn't in town so he would be able to look at it Monday, which was fine with me. Monday arrives, he shows up (thank the lord) and proceeds to check the key, he stated that the key got loose due to some glue. And that he put double sided tape and it should work now. I asked him if he could give me a fob for the key that I had (because now I'm worried that his key is going to do the same thing) he stated that he does not work for free, and that it wasn't his fault that they key didn't work. He then offered me to pay him 40$ for another fob. I had just spent 500$ due to his key malfunctioning but the Real problem was that he did not take responsibility for it. He said it wasn't his fault, Like I said, I'm not bashing his business, at first I really enjoyed the service and process. But common! A month and the key gave out, then proceed to tell me that it's not his fault and starts getting frustrated The total price of the key came out to around 600$ with all my trouble and he still couldn't help me with a 40$ fob because he does not work for free (but I do I guess) read more

My best friend flushed her Jetta key down the toilet. She has been calling every locksmith on Google for service only to be quoted $600+ or told that they don't have the capability to service her car. I sent out a message asking for quotes on yelp and not only did Empire Locksmith reply in less than 10min but they were also fair and upfront with their pricing. Which was significantly less than she had been previously quoted!! Will and his coworker were very communicative and were able to come to us and make her a new key SAME DAY!! Thanks guys, we appreciate you!! read more

They came to my home to make me a new key. They were quick, responsive, and at a fair rate.

William was very helpful fixing our car after a dead battery and replacement of the ignition switch. Was very responsive and able to come by early. 2006 Honda Civic, green immobilizer light was flashing. William was able to clear the condition and get the car to start and stay running. Will gladly give William our future business read more

So impressed with this guy! we broke the only key to our car while out running an errand. It's one of those keys with a key fob and a chip, which makes it more expensive. He came out and met us within an hour, and was able to pull the chip out of the broken key and save us a bunch of money. Very nice guy too. I recommend tipping him if you get the same great service. read more

I needed a key fob recoded to match one I had. I'll try and make this short. My car came with 2 key fobs I was visiting in Lakewood and lost my key and my spare was 300 miles away. I had a new one made for over $400. It had a new code Sony other one at home no longer worked for my car. I tried many places to get my other key fob reprogramed so I could have 2 keys again. No one wanted toor said they couldn't do that. Finally Will at Empire told me he would try. Told me all the things that could go wrong but he would try if that's what I wanted. Yes I did and everything is just great price was reasonable. Will was very friendly and honest. I am so happy with his work and honesty. And I have 2 keys again. read more

William was super helpful and got the job done quickly. I previously went to another locksmith who ended up burning out my battery and did not program the key correctly that my car would turn on. Spend almost 2 hours doing that and William got it done less than 30 min. He explained why the other key i had didn't work and was helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you! read more

I had a problem with someone tampering with my driver side door lock. I was unable to get into my care. I called Empire Locksmith and they came out the same day. William Garcia came out so I could get into my car. He then suggested I try and get the new door lock myself as it would cost less. I did and he came out today to install it. I am very satisfied with the company and with Mr. Garcia and would not hesitate to use this company again. Mr. Garcia is knowledgeable and friendly. read more
