Dave the Key Man

I have never used their services before, but anyone who cuts multiple people off on the freeway and flips them off probably isn’t the best choice.

Dave is the best locksmith hands down! Upon first calling, he gave the ETA and estimate pricing up front! The price was reasonable and he came on a Sunday to help me! There were no hidden costs and what he told me over the phone was exactly what I paid.
The whole thing was finished really quickly, and I had two locks on one door that I needed to break down. Before each procedure, he would explain what he’s about to do and any implications beforehand. Not only that but he also helped me make 2 copies of the keys I left in another state! I am so appreciative of his help for SAVING me on Sunday night before work. Thank you Dave!!!

This guy is a LIFE SAVER! Being pregnant and being locked out of the house while juggling my 1 ½ year old in the dark of night is NO FUN! With one call, Dave gave me his ETA and estimated price. Instead of risking damaging our front door, he found alternate routes into the home. THANK YOU SO MUCH DAVE!

My 80 year old mother ended up locked out of her house when the lock on her front door failed. She had very little battery left on her cell phone, so she asked me to call a locksmith for her. I called Dave (from 400 miles away) based on Unilocal reviews. He was every bit as good as people say. He was very friendly and polite on the phone with me. He was able to get to my mom in about 15 minutes, and fix the lock for her. He even made a copy of her key to test his work (so as not to ruin her key), and then gave it to her when he was done. The cost of the work fell in the range he had quoted me over the phone. Fantastic job, Dave!

I was house and pet sitting for my mom when somehow in my zealousness to separate yowling felines, I locked a bedroom door. With an 18 pound angry cat behind it. I called around and another locksmith referred me to Dave. He got here within 20 minutes and unlocked the door in less than 5. Very personable and wanted to meet all the pets, however aforementioned angry cat was deep under the bed, sadly for Dave. He takes Square, super easy.
PS He’s very mild mannered and does not seem like a crazy driver at all, haha.

Really? You’re going to knock the guy down on his Unilocal page just because he’s a reckless driver which has nothing to do with his business? I’m a pretty successful small business owner (with great reviews) and I drive like an slow turtle but does that make me mentally challenge or incapable of running my business? There’s no point of writing a negative review on Dave’s driving if this has NOTHING to do with his work ethics. In fact, his work is quite impressive. I have just recently moved and needed Dave to help re-​key all the main locks. He was very knowledgeable with what I needed since I needed to change some of the faces of the locks. He even went above and beyond to repair my main door so that I am able to open and close the door smoothly without having to tug at/​from it. At last, he didn’t even want to accept my payment until he returns to repair the main door.
Nice guy, really. Reckless driver? So what? Just stay out of his way.

Just go hooked up with a set of Keys for my car from Dave the Key Man super awesome dude with great service would definitely recommend him to anyone. If your looking for Keys Dave is your man!

This is the man you want working on your locks. He goes out of his way to make sure the job is done right. He works fast, does excellent work, great prices. On a side note he is great with kids. Our two little girls loved watching him work and he did a great job of explaining what he was doing to them. Now a few weeks out from the job he just called to make sure that everything is still working. Really good follow up.

Dave is AWESOME! I called after 6:30pm because the patio door would not lock. At first, he was hesitant, but called me back and told me he would come by.
It took almost 3 hours to figure out what the heck was wrong and it’s still not fixed because we need to order a part.
Dave did not ask for payment… Instead he said, «let’s fix it and then we will see.» Not many people do that and that’s what makes Dave the Key man different from all the other small businesses. He is reliable, honest, and informative. Very patient I may say… If you need a key man… Dave is your MAN!

On a Sunday evening I lock my car keys inside my car. I call Dave to unlock my car and scheduled a time same day after 2 hours. He was very professional and polite. He came at the scheduled time and he unlock the car without any damage in a matter of few minutes. He was very knowledgeable, reasonable price and very friendly. I would give him more than 5 star if it was possible. Highly recommended and no need to look for anyone except Dave for any keys related stuff!

Just awesome! I needed several locks rekeyed and Dave took my call at 8:00pm to schedule for the next day. I have to say that his phone manners were excellent & he was better in person. Very competitively priced, on time, professional and just a great guy. Outstanding communication all the way. I’ve had locks redone before, but have to say this was just a great experience. Highly recommended and will work with him on anything we need. No reason to look any farther. Thank you, Dave!

So glad I used Dave. He did an awesome job changing our door knobs and matching the keys to our other locks. He arrived at the time promised and finished the job quickly. He is very friendly and professional.

Dave was awesome. Super friendly and über professional. He arrived when he said he would, explained how long it might take, and got right at it. He was able to open my lock in only a few minutes with no damage to the lock. It’s a bit unnerving to call someone to break into your house! Dave put me at ease and seemed trustworthy and honest. Definitely give this guy a call!

Dave the Key Man is as good as it gets! He’s reliable, honest, very knowledgeable, and can solve any key problem you have. We inherited a ’79 Trans Am and not only did he make us 3 keys — ignition, door, and gas cap, but he also knew everything there was to know about the car. He is a master of his craft, worked quickly, and patiently answered all of our questions. He would certainly be the first guy we would call with a lock problem. Thanks Dave!

I would give him 6 stars if I could!
After a long weekend of moving my finance lost his car key. We called a locksmith, but they don’t create cars keys so they referred us to Dave the key man. We called Dave on a Sunday at 7:30 and he said he’d be over in about 15 minutes or gave us a slightly cheaper option for Monday morning. We opted for Sunday so my fiancé could make it to work on time the next day.
Once he arrived Dave was able to get into the car without causing damage, while in the process of pulling of the door panel to get the code to create the key my fiancé found the «lost» key. He made a couple copies of the car key. While he was there I had him change the locks to the outside garage door to match the front door so I only need 1 key instead of 3! He also repaired the key I had created at a local home improvement store that didn’t open on my front door like it should have.
Dave was knowledgeable, polite, and gave us a fair price. I also really enjoyed our conversation about locks, which I started since I’ve always been curious about how locks work. However, if I wouldn’t have said anything to him he would have been happy to quietly complete the job at hand.

My goodness! What a guy! I called another locksmith and they recommended Dave to me. He gave me a price, not a quote, (a rarity amongst locksmiths who are in the habit of giving only «service charges» to come out and then stacking on BS costs. But he gave me a solid price and stuck to it. He was on a job when I called him, but came right out when he was done. He was super ridiculously nice. Even though it took him longer than expected due to wear in my ignition, he got the job done and gave me 2 perfectly cut keys. The price was great, he even called me to let me know he would be a few minutes later than he told me because he was stuck in traffic. I wasn’t unhappy about a single thing. He gave me cards and a little keychain flashlight. Love him.

Fast. Polite. Awesome pricing.
Needed a simple rekey’ing done for a property. Gave Dave a call and was able to get an appointment that afternoon. He showed up, walked me through my options. Once we figured out a solution he began his worked, gave me a little education on locks and keys and had everything completed in 10 – 15 minutes. even serviced/​inspected the locks and strikeplates to ensure everything was tiptop.
if you need a locksmith for anything. this is your dude. thanks dave!

One day my ignition switch got stuck in off position on my 2004 Chevy Silverado. I was refered to dave by one if my customers. I gave him a call and he was happy to come and help me. He arrived at my work in no time and went right to work. He told me that this was a common issue with the tumblers and was a simple fix. About 20 mins later he had the switch out cleaned and relubed and in perfect working order and made me new keys since mine were kinda wore out. I was stoked at how great he was and the price was great! thanks again dave!!! i will be be letting people know about the swift and happy service!

I had no idea getting a new set of keys could be so easy. I lost both my keys and Dave was happy to come help make me a new pair. I made the appointment and he called me 10 minutes before arriving to let me know he was on his way.
Really pleasant guy and does great work. I would recommend him to everyone.

I was referred to DAVE «The Key Man» from another locksmith that couldn’t help me out with my 2008 Honda Accord. Turns out that those of us with newer car are SCREWED if we ever get our key/​remote STOLEN or LOSE them. Long story, but it happened to me.
DAVE answered the phone his self?! Took time to listen to my circumstances, was on the road and promised to call me back upon arrival of his office (where he could research the problem). He CALLED ME BACK FAST! He was super HONEST and told me the limitations of his Key/​Remote Programming that would be required for the J.O.B., he also was able to refer me to someone else in the industry that might be able to HELP. I was grateful for the 30 or so minutes that Dave himself spent researching/​talking to me when he KNEW that he wasn’t going to make a dime off of me. WOW, just WOW! An honest service provider that goes out of his way to help me just because. If he could have helped me, I KNOW that he would have done a phenomenal job.
PS His RATES ARE BETTER than the rates of the not-​so-​courteous locksmiths that I contacted earlier in the day. FAST, RESPONSIVE and HONEST. Thanks DAVE!
