Our car was stranded in a fast food restaurant parking lot overnight after the key broke off the fob in the ignition and we were unable to reprogram a new fob. Called Paul's Lock & Key Shop for advice/availability as my sick grandfather was stuck at the hotel without his medications and needed to return home as soon as possible. Owner Jim answered the phone and immediately began to speak with hostility towards us, saying "are you going to shut up so I can talk?" and "I'm trying to do you a favor and if you don't stop talking I'm not helping you" as my mom was trying to relay information from him to me so I could follow his instruction. He also cussed at us, saying "well maybe I should fucking talk to her then!" When my mom was explaining the situation to him. It made an already incredibly stressful day 1000x worse, and I never expected this kind of customer service in Rochester. Especially where 90% of visitors are likely having the worst day of their life and could be met with a small amount of kindness. You never know what someone is going through. Will not be using services again and certainly will not be recommending to others/will be warning those looking for appropriate service to look elsewhere. Very disappointing.

Initially, Mark was professional and gained entry to the room after 45 minutes. If the encounter had ended there, I would have given him 5 stars. However a stealthy act, I caught him taking pictures in my home on his cell phone, changed my rating. When I called him out, he said, "Oh, I didn't think you'd mind." If that were true, he would have asked me first and not attempted to hide his actions. I insisted that he delete the photos. He apologized but I felt uncomfortable and my privacy was violated. I just wanted to pay him and end the encounter. Later, someone needed a locksmith and remembered I had a recent service. They asked for my recommendation so I decided to share my experience.

As of yet, I am still waiting for a couple companies to call me back. Another well known Rochester locksmith said they could cut a key but NOT program it so it would still involve that tow to a dealer. Now that leaves the remaining 3 locksmiths that said they could cut and program keys. The lowest quote to the highest quote ranged almost $200...so glad I took the time to call around. A-1 was the second lowest quote but the locksmith with lowest quote was having equipment problems and was actually unavailable. Anyway, Mark from A-1 answered the phone right away and was very friendly. He took the time to double check the quote so we wouldn't be surprised by anything when he actually got here. As we live off in the country, he was great at communicating his ETA. While here, you could tell he has 25yrs of experience; he was courteous and he worked diligently on making sure the key was perfect. He went way above and beyond with this service and we cannot thank him enough. Hands-down, A-1 will be used again. They are the best choice and best deal for a locksmith!
