Harold’s Key Shop

I stopped in at Harold’s Lock to get a do not duplicate key blank for an apartment that I am renting out. To my surprise they were out of stock. The locksmith suggested that he just stamp the key I already had to avoid waiting for the one on order or paying more. I appreciated that so much. I had not even thought of doing that. If you are in need of a locksmith there is no one better. They having been helping me out for a few years now.

They were quick to service me. I just walked in because I wanted to get a key duplicated, and they helped me right away.
I got in and out of there in under 5 mins.

used to love this place but now there never at the shop eventhough it says open from 8am to 5pm. i wished there was another place close by to make keys.

Great service! Hal arrived when he said he would. Worked quickly and efficiently. Got the job done in no time. Very reasonable for same day service.

Excellent fast and reliable. Got my key stuck in the lock and managed to break it off. So I pulled the lock apart.. on accident.. anyways took it here and he fixed it in 5 minutes. And made me a spare key in like 30 seconds. I’ve had spare keys done at home depot and other places and no where was it that quick. I’ll definitely be back here.

Great service — couldn’t be happier.
Harold’s Key Shop was the second locksmith we called to get a door in our office open. The first guy we called wanted $ 60 to come out, then said it would cost $ 200 to open it because it was a difficult lock and he would have to drill it. Ridiculous.
Harold’s got the door open in minutes and even re-​keyed the cylinder so our main office key could open the door, should we lock out again. Even better, the prices are incredibly competitive! $ 75 for the lock and $ 20 to re-​key. 10 minutes and $ 95 is all it took to have our office back — wish we would have called Harold’s first.
If you need a real, professional locksmith, Harold’s is your best bet.

These guys are great! Hal can be a bit cranky at times but once you get to know him he’s cool. His bark is worse than his bite:). They can work on just about any lock and they do house calls.

John came by to rekey and swap some of our locks. After finishing then original job we asked for some additional work. We had already agreed to the additional fee but he offered to do it for free since the other items on the original work order were easier than he had anticipated.
Honest. Fair. Easy to get a hold of.

this shop is really helpful, eventhough they don’t have the service to unlock my car. They recommend me a different place to help me out.

This shop had exactly what I needed, the employee (Howard? I have no idea) asked me what I needed and checked while I was on the phone – and I didn’t ask him to do it.
He even tested the key on the car – on ALL the locks – before I paid. Very thorough and thoughtful. I definitely recommend this shop!

Because a neighbor had an attempted break-​in, I decide to review our home security. I knew we needed a much better lock on our front door. The service man from Harold’s key shop was out within a day.
The locksmith installed a deadbolt which goes deep into the frame of the doorway, into 2×4, not just into trim molding. The screws are about 4 inches long. As he worked he explained what he was doing and why. I feel more secure now, knowing how strong this lock is.
A side note on the above visit, a general contractor once told me, «the problem with tradesmen now days, is they don’t respect each other’s work». This was not true for the locksmith from Harold’s. He spread a canvas sheet over our hardwood floors, was careful not to scratch the paint on the door frame and swept up after himself.
Harolds has helped us with other things too, Bicycle locks, combination locks, desk keys, re-​keying locks, auto keys and even came out in the rain at 5 p.m. when my sister locked herself out of her apartment. I totally trust these guys.
