I accidentally locked myself out of one of our bedrooms in our old 1920 craftsman house — a very old and tricky lock. Omar from The Key Crew came to my house within just a couple of hours and expertly dealt with this ridiculous situation I got myself into. He was so kind and professional. I appreciate how responsive and friendly the Key Crew was. And the service was very reasonably priced. I recommend the Key Crew very highly! Thanks again for helping me yesterday!

Writing this review for my aunt she’s 65 years old and often times loses things and given the two times we use the key crew each time was very professional they got there quickly they finished very fast within 10 minutes it was the same guy each time, so we got to know him. He was very kind and even made sure to delete the key fob that we lost.

He just finished repairing my frozen ignition on my 1999 Lexus and my battery was dead and Dave got me up and running. It was obvious his knowledge and experience. I couldn’t be happier! These guys know what they are doing for sure!

The Key Crew is the Best Crew! They saved me so much more than the dealer would have charged. I highly suggest going there for any key lock services. They fixed my power lock driver side door and replaced both my keys and fobs. Everyone there was very nice and attentive.

If you need a reliable local locksmith, I cannot recommend The Key Crew enough. We woke up Sunday to find someone tried to steal our Ford F-150. We immediately called The Key Crew Locksmith and Nate was here in 15 minutes. While he was working on our lock he gave us a free jump to make sure our battery was fully charged.Unfortunately, the thief’s did so much damage to the ignition, the part they needed, Ford no longer makes. So instead of saying, nope we can’t do the job they went above and beyond. They researched on Ebay and junkyards to get us the best price. As soon as the part came, Tim, one of the owners, personally came out to fix it. They had us up and going in no time. Trust the Key Crew to take care of all your locksmith needs.

At my house I somehow ended up having six locks on four doors and needed four different keys to operate them. I got tired of fumbling through the ring every time I got home so contacted the Key Crew to synch the locks to one key. The price was reasonable, their license current, and Omar arrived on time. Omar was friendly, professional, and efficient. He also went above and beyond the scope of the job. I have a sticky security door and learned to live with it but I have a feeling Omar is kind of a perfectionist because after a few times of wrestling to open and close the door a few taps of his mallet on the frame had that puppy swinging freely. Im grateful, I just wish I had thought of that.

First time using the Key Crew, had to program a remote for my vehicle. They gave it an honest shot with the remote I had and couldnt get it working, they tried again with a remote they had and gave me a very reasonable price on it. Couldnt be happier. Excellent and friendly service, thank you!

Review №16

I was very impressed with not only the professionalism but the honesty of this companies employee. I called because I needed a whole new key and fob for a Nissan. First they arrived ahead of schedule, second it was discovered that when the car was towed the key fell on the side of the seat. The tech noticed this at the time he was making a copy and pointed that out. Normally I would have had a 2nd key made but with times the way they are money’s tight. So because of the techs professionalism and honesty the $200 bill became $75. I’ve already recommended 2 people and I will continue to do so with anyone that can use their services. Thanks again and I will definitely call if I need you again, you have a customer for life.

We needed back up key replacements made and programmed for two of our vehicles. The key crew offered very reasonable rates, responded to our inquiries promptly every time. When we eventually came in for the service, all of the staff were friendly, courteous, and professional and we got our keys made and programmed in under an hour while we waited.

The driver did an great job, I lost my key to my club bar. He was able to get the club off my car. Said he wouldn’t be able to make a key for the club. It’s alright. I told him I didn’t care about a key I just want the club off my car. He put my cover back on and was polite, kind, and took care of me quickly. Being alone at midnight, he made me feel not to be scared. An excellent team member for AAA, thank you. This is the very reason I have AAA for myself and my daughter.Thank you for great service at a time when I really needed your help.Sincerely, Connie ChatwinAAA member for over 25 years +AAA made me feel safe on a dark road alone!

After 32 years of driving the same car, yesterday when trying to start my 1989 Ford Mustang convertible I couldn’t get the ignition switch to budge!I called AAA and after a few suggestions of theirs it still would give so they said they’d dispatch a lock specialist.I was told the arrival time may be lengthy but it was not bad at all...he met me at my car in under a half hour.Nate was the technician who came out and he was wonderful.My switch was a bit of pain in the butt trying to remove and it did he say It was taking longer than most ignition switch repairs but I had a book and didn’t mind the wait.He installed the new switch and gave me the new key and I was safely on my way home.I highly recommend Nate.He knows what he’s doing and he’s polite and followed all the Covid safety protocol as well.

Michaels the man! Michael was able to successfully duplicate a spare motorcycle key for me using a OEM microchipped blank (which I bought and brought in from the dealership)! He even made sure that the newly cut key was mechanically functioning on my bike before he charged my credit card! Michael was very professional and efficient - highly recommend The Key Crew off Admas Ave!

This is the 2nd time I had to use this service. The first time I had an emergency and missed my appointment at the hospital because no one showed up for 4 hours. This time no one ever showed up at all because they said they were trying to call but I told the dispatcher that I had no phone so they never showed up. Is this the way you treat your premier member?not once but twice. What do I pay you for.

I was searching for anyplace or machine to make copies of an odd key of mine. It was exhausting.. Until I contacted this place. I contacted them in the morning and by early afternoon I had the copies I needed. They went above and beyond in getting the blanks needed. Charged me a fantastic price. Were knowledgeable, friendly, professional and very quick. I couldnt have asked for a better expierence. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Can’t recommend this locksmith enough. Got stuck with no keys and wasn’t able to be helped out by tons of locksmiths we called due to being unable to get the “key code”.

Great service. In and out. Installed a new battery in my car fob. Have used before at their old location. There is a small parking lot in back or street parking. There is a reasonable mobile locksmith service that will rekey your house locks, install new locks, or provide other services such as if you lock the keys in your car. Highly recommend.

Wow! I lost one of my Toyota car fob/keys and the dealership quoted me a crazy high price. I found the The Key Crew on google and their website is sleek and easy to use. With a quick phone call I was quoted half the price of the dealership. A few days later I showed up and they pulled up my quote and had me in and out of their in less than 10 min. Really friendly staff and half the price of the dealership. Fob/key works as good as the original.

The Key Crew is great. They came to my car within four hours of the call, and cut a key for my car, which is an obscure older car and I thought they were going to have trouble getting it done. They took about 30 minutes and had two sets of perfect keys ready for me and the cost was about a third of what I thought it was going to be. If you’re needing any help with keys these guys are who you should call.

After 9 years I apparently lost my car keys for my 89 Nissan... Well it was a cold rainy day and after calling multiple 24 hour companies and being told its too dark or wait for the weather to clear up, I called the key crew. They came immediately, made a key on the spot very fast, and did an amazing job. 10/10 would recommend over any 24 hour mobile locksmith in San Diego.

These guys are AWESOME!!! They rebuilt the ignition cylinder and then helped me put the ignition back together.

HANDS DOWN the best locksmith in San Diego! I had locked the keys to my BMW 128 in the trunk. Not only did they unlock the cab of the car in about 20 seconds they had my trunk open in 2 minutes!!!

Ok i admit it. I made a mistake. Went surfing and had the Toyota key in a waterproof pouch in the pocket of my baggies. The wave action was considerable and guess what? The waterproof pouch and the key somehow floated out! Little chance of finding the items. A passerby was kind enough to lend me his cel phone. I called AAA. They called The Key Crew. Chris showed up. Talk about professional and experienced. I was amazed by the complexity of the job to create and program an entirely new key. Chris did it like drinking water. Easily. Worth every dollar. Would not hesitate to recommend Chris and the Key Crew again.
