We were stranded while driving cross country for a family vacation, thank goodness Bill's Lock and Key was able to help get us going again.

I was really pleased with Bill's today - they coded a new car door lock cylinder to my car's original key in around 30 minutes for only $45. This was close to 1/3rd the price of another quote, and close to 1/4th the price at the dealer. Service was great! I'll be back for any locksmith needs.

Highly recommend! Excellent service and super knowledgeable staff. Their help was invaluable in getting my key situation under control after my car was stolen. My car's ignition and locks were replaced so I received new keys from my mechanic that weren't programmed. They were able to get my previous set of keys working so I didn't even need the new ones. I'm forever grateful! If you're ever in my key situation skip the dealership and head here first. It's more reasonably priced and your overall customer experience will be ten times better.

Quick and efficient service on duplicating a car key/fob that required re-programming the original. There is no shortage of personnel to speed you on your way in this store, but they all seem to be busy!

A week ago I stopped by in search of a spiral wrist key chain. The young man who assisted me was both polite and efficient in finding exactly what I was looking for. I really appreciate good customer service, and will be a loyal patron of Bill's. Good job!

I went to Bill's locks and keys to make a key. The staff was very fast at Bill's locks and key. Looks like you can buy a gun safe and other safes here. They also sell everything about keys. I'll go back to Bill's lock and key again for my key needs.
