Can’t say enough about the skill Robert has in repairing vintage locks. He helped prevent some very costly repairs by salvaging a 60+ year old mortise lock. Highly recommend him for any lock and key needs. He is passionate about what he does which is key to great service.

Nathan Umanos on Southside Lock & Key

Great find and alternative to corporate type locksmiths who can’t and won’t try solutions because of policies and insurance at ridiculous prices. Small but has everything “in the back” kind of place. More reasonable prices than most and very capable proprietor. A must try here first.

Connie Simon on Southside Lock & Key

I have used them before for an automobile key that requires programming, this time my son needed a key fob cut and programmed. Their service is ALWAYS impeccable, and best of all their prices SUPERB. Dealer wanted to charge $200 for just programming (no key cut) they did it for UNDER HALF that price for ALL services needed. Will continue to use them.

The proprietor, Robert did an outstanding job when I brought a lovkbox with a key broken off in the lock to the shop. He was efficient, polite, ,and the cost was quite reasonable. Do not be turned away by the quaint exterior of the building. It’s a jewel in the rough!
