Local Reviews
Fast yet careful, highly professional and effective
Peter - Charlottesville, VA
Had a visit from Lockdoctor last month: the service was fast yet vary careful, highly professional, accurate, and very effective.
Re-Key
Ron - Ruckersville, VA
I called to have my new vehicle purchase re-keyed for the all-in-one key fob. I did this because carrying around a key fob and the ignition/door key seems ridiculous. Terry came to my office, programmed, and cut two new keys in a very short time. Great service.
Quick and Excellent Service!
S - Louisa, VA
Called Terry to make a key for an auction vehicle I had purchased. He was there the very next morning and job completed in no time. Excellent Service! Thank you Terry 🙂

Arrived on time, worked quick and job well done. When scheduling car key replacement, discussed the if the key would work, what types, universal or OEM, and also prices up front.

Brian - Charlottesville, VA
Terry did an awesome job getting us some new key fobs programmed for our van. We saved a ton of money by working with him as opposed to the dealership, and he was able to work with our schedule essentially the day after we put in a quote request. He was on time, super nice, and very professional. Highly recommended!

Jackie - Stanardsville, VA
Needed keyless entry remote for 2017 Nissan Altima. The owner ordered a replacement. When it came in, he bought it to my house & programmed it to my car. Now I’m good to go. Reasonable price for all that was done. Very timely. Courteous. No hassle. I would highly recommend this company. I would not hesitate to contact them again.
