The Key Guy

this guy is a joke. He doesn’t answer his phone after 3 calls over 45 minutes and doesn’t even respond to texts. Just google a REAL LOCKSMITH. Found a guy who answered his phone and came in 25 minutes and 135 bucks later problems solved… and this key had a chip and needed to be programmed.

I couldn’t believe that I lost my key to a 2003 VW Passat that I bought. all the other locksmiths were asking for a ton of money. I called Julio and he was very responsive and reasonable. This guy is the real deal. If I you need a key made and programmed for your car this guy is the one to call he saved me. Highly recommeded Thanks Julio

The Key guy is the best. Why you ask? Availability. Price.
He is always there when you need him. I have never been charged an afterhours rate like other locksmith companies. (I am not saying he doesnt charge overtime rates, I just never paid them!)
I have used Julio for over 15 years. We used to have a car lot and he was the one we used for spare keys and cars that had no keys from the auction.
I have seen him grow from his regular vehicle to a nice van where he can now sit in and make keys. He must be doing something right to be able to stay in business this long and expand.
He is pretty skilled at getting into cars as well :] He has NEVER damaged my paint, window moulding or anything getting into a car. He really is a perfectionist and meticulous
about getting into your car. He doesnt sit there with that crazy coat hanger thing and just start wrenching away at it.
As with any car, the newer the car, the harder to get into and then you start running into the chips needing to be programmed, there was one ocassion I had to go to the dealer $ 350 dollars if I remember. He doesnt try and BS you about anything.
I had a 1991 camaro RS that had a chip. He was still able to make the key and program it. Lucky for me. Oh the good old days!
How do I know his prices are fair?
I had not checked pricing until my IPHONE got stolen. I lost all my numbers. I could not find him on the internet. I was forced to call around. I heard stories of trip charges, mileage fees, after hours charges, portal to portal charges (pay while they sit in the car driving to you… heck no!) duplicate key costs that seemed extraordinary. Disappointed I searched once again. Thank goodness for Manta. I found him.
, I had already gotten three quotes. His price for a key was at least 25% lower from each of the competitors. SCORE! Verfification he was the MAN!
So now, I feel even better about using him. Usually when I call him though it is not because we just need a key made. It is because someone lost a darn key! That part stinks but at least I know I am getting a perfect key and for the BEST Price!
