They did a great job cutting and programming a replacement key for my Subaru. Service was fast, attentive and pleasant. The key was special ordered and communication about delivery and pricing was great (and much cheaper than the dealership). I will be using them again for all of my lock & key needs. Keep up the great work, thanks again!

American Lock & Key has always helped my family and business with our lock and key work. They're our go to Richmond Locksmith! This time they installed a new Nest Yale Smart Lock and door knob. Everything works great. Sam even took the time to help me install the app on my phone and teach me how to use it!

Today, I met an awesome group of fellas, with great senses of humor. They were extremely helpful, I was greeted when I arrived. My keys and fob were made in record time, at an unbeatable price. I'll definitely be recommending American Lock & Key. Thanks for the great service.

First of all, American Lock & Key did NOT pay me for this review. They earned it with good old fashioned customer service, honesty and integrity. My key FOB for my car stopped working. I went to McGeorge Ford and they told me that the only way they could fix it would be to replace the key for almost $400.00! I went in to American Lock and Key, and they sold me a secondary device that took the place of my key FOB for just $15.00. They saved me $385.00! Even a replacement key would have been around $175.00 I think. The point is, they could have sold me an expensive key but they realize that great customer service, honesty and integrity wins over customers in the long term. They will get my return business!

Absolutely the best experience I’ve had with a locksmith. I was serviced by John and he was such a great guy. Honestly he was so funny I forgot that I was stressed about having locked my keys in my car. Highly highly recommend.

I went in to American Lock and Key yesterday with two different car keys that I needed spares for, unsure if it would even be possible for someone other than the dealer to make them for me. I walked out 20 min later with two new keys for about 30% of what the dealer quoted! Great customer service AND they know what they’re doing!
