I contacted "Advanced" about a new key fob for my Land Rover. Was told "Yep, we can program that." I said I already had a "blank" fob, be he said he only programs those he orders. $200 (vs $25) but. Fine. And $80 to program it. Okay. "I can have that for you Tuesday." Okay, let's do that. Heard nothing. I called later in the week, he said "mail gets here at 2.' Nothing. Called a week later. And then a.week later, and then a week LATER. Finally, I said "Hey, do you think you could order that with a guaranteed delivery date?" Crickets. So. After waiting for six weeks for the firstavaikable appointment

I never wrote a message for any business no matter what. But this one TRULY deserves one. I lost my key while travelling where my car was left at the Boise Int. Airport. It happened that my travel was 3 days before Thanksgiving. I called both Nissan Dealers in Boise for a key and both said it would take several days and just the key costs $45. Making the key would take anywhere between $100 to $300. I ended up leaving my car at the airport for a week and the Dealer ordered the key did not call me before Thanksgiving.
After Thanksgiving, I went back to Boise and it took me hours just to find the

Kurt was AMAZING and was able to help us solve an intimidating, late-night problem (keys to house AND car left in Colorado!) within 25 MINUTES. The relief was tangible to have a SOLUTION (keys made), not just an unlocked house/car. I've dealt with locksmith companies across the United States, there is no one better nor more trustworthy!

I had an amazing experience with advanced lock and key. I had my keys stolen and I needed new key fobs made. I called the dealership and was quoted an outrageous price. They sent me to advanced lock and key and it saved me a ton of money. In addition, they came to my house and did it quickly and efficiently and they were kind to work with. I highly recommend.

A couple of nights ago when it was pouring pretty good, I ran into the neighborhood Walmart for a few things before it got too late. When I got back to my car I realized in my rush I had locked my keys in the car. A couple of well meaning citizens tried to help but to no avail. Then Jack from Advanced Lock & Key, strolled up and said, "Here I am to save the day!" No not really, but pretty much that's what I heard. He was already in the parking lot saving someone else and popped my door open for a review in less than a minute. WOW! Thanks so much Jack, you're freakin fantastical! And Dillon thanks

Sean answered the phone this morning and was polite and professional and answered my questions and came out the same afternoon to do the job. He sent me a message to advise of his arrival time. He was prompt and performed the work he said he would do in a timely manner. If you're seeking a Locke with with experience and integrity, this is the man.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!
I cannot say I am happy to write this review, and it will be lengthy.
I had to get an extra key made for my car along with a key fob. I went to Advanced Lock and Key to do just this. The owner, Kirk, told me he'd been doing this for 37 years, and it would be an easy thing. Indeed, he created my new key and key fob with ease, then went to my car to program the key fob...once he completed this programming, my car would no longer start!
Now, I have a car that is literally dead in the water!
At this point, Kirk had no real answers for me; he said he'd never

The guy showed up in a random car so immediately I didn't feel safe. He was late and it took him so long to unlock my door. Then after I was already in a rush he took so long to do everything and wasn't prepared to take my payment so I had to wait on him. Overall terrible experience will not use this company again.

They had the key, prompt service, etc. but the young man that waited on me did not wear a mask. Didn't feel real comfortable in a small store with that situation.

Solid, knowledgeable, helpful, and appropriately priced. Responsive over the phone to provide information for a replacement key for my 2006 F150. Showed up to a clean shop and they made my key quickly. Good to have a locksmith when I need one!

For my 300th review, I decided to compliment this key shop. Thank you for a great experience and and giving me a great price on a brand new lock for my desk to keep my belongings safe. I went in here today with my two children, and the staff and owner were amazing in helping me find a good option for my situation. Thank you again for a good experience. I will highly recommend you.

UNPROFESSIONAL and RUDE- Im very confused by all the positive reviews. Maybe they didn't work with the same guy we had to deal with.

We got a new car and the locksmith place we went to for our previous car was closed so we found Advanced lock & key online and it looked promising because of the good reviews. BOY WERE WE WRONG.

The key that the guy copied would not work- so he was using the palm of his hand to try to punch it in. WHEN OBVIOUSLY IT WASN'T FITTING.

I was in the car being physically rattled by how hard he was punching my car.

I was taking a video of the car for my

Managed to lose the keys on a car I had in storage. He came to the facility at the appointed time, and worked quickly and efficiently and generated a new set of keys. Can't say enough about the service - quick and the price was reasonable.

I used this service recently to change my locks on my home and must say I did not feel that I could recommend this place. I was quoted one price on the phone and was not told there was a service fee (which was 45.00) and they charge additional in Eagle. While the technician who came out was friendly and we did get more locks than we anticipated which is a separate charge from the service fee I was left with a bad taste in my mouth. The service fee was substantial, and when I called to discuss it they said, oh that is just part of the overall amount and did nothing to address my concern. I

A great team that saved our bacon !


Lifesavers! Advanced Lock and Key is made up of a wife and husband team that saved our day! On a Sunday no less when the car dealer and rental company could not help. We accidentally locked our keys in the trunk of a 2019 car with a tight security system. We had our luggage in the rental car trunk and had a tight timeline to get to the airport. They initially thought they would have to cut a high dollar value key to get access to the trunk. The car's security system would not allow access without key or FOB which were in the trunk. They arrived to

This is the company to call when you have a key issue. My husband lost his car key (don't ask) and we needed a replacement. The dealership wanted $300+ to replace it. We called the key guy and he was at our house in an hour and we spent about $100 for two keys and a key fob. If I could give 6 stars I would. Great service, quick service, and super affordable.
