Situation--My only key broke off in the rear cargo door--I was stuck! Finding a local locksmith that wasn't a scam--locksmith call centers with little understanding--was extremely difficult. **Don't waste your time waiting for a "call back by the technician" that never arrived. Then I found Daniel's Lock and Key. One call and I knew he was an expert. He knew exactly what needed to be done...key programming, key replication, cleaning tumbler, etc. He picked the driver door lock, cut two keys, and both fit the tumbler perfectly. Better service than I ever expected. Don't waste your time calling a locksmith call center!! Call Daniel's Lock and Key in the Virginia Beach area--he has the profession pegged!

Mr Taylor from Central contacted me promptly, came to my home at a time that was convenient for me, and cut and programmed my key fob perfectly.

Last week I had a phone conversation with Melisa (sp) of Coffey's Lockshop to have a key made based…read moreon a photo of manufacturer's code, which I sent per her instructions. She and I agree to a following morning pickup of my promised key. Next day, I drove 20 or so minutes to get the key as we had agreed. But, when I arrived as we had scheduled, Melissa was in a back office and front desk attendant was clueless about the arrangement made. He asked Melissa, still in the back office, who replied that was unable to obtain the blank? So, instead of calling me back as soon as she determined she would not be able to fulfill the agreed to delivery, she did nothing and I wasted time and a trip to lower Newport News. No, apology for the inconvience, Melissa never even got up to come speak to me but let the attendant stand there at the counter s with a puzzled look. My brother-in-law by the way successfully used the same photo I had sent and Shorty Wallens Locksmith made the key shortly afterwards! Moral of the story as another reviewer stated, "not the same Coffey's it was back in the earlier years.

Stephen to the rescue! After some simple communication back and forth, we arranged an easy pickup for the key, and in no time, he returned my old key as requested along with a perfect replacement for the key, fob, and a shiny brass spare. The new set works great, with a fob that operates much better than my old one ever did. Thanks for the excellent service, Stephen!
