Phil's is the place for high security commercial keys. Very quick and friendly service. I like the display of old locks too.

Clean, courteous service. Well known reputation as the best around. An older Lexus SUV key sleeve (w/buttons) needed to be replaced. Most locksmiths I called were out of stock and more than one told me to try Phil's. They were the only place local to me that still had those type of key sleeves in stock. Done in 10 min after getting there. Go there for all your key needs - car or home. You won't be disappointed..

Was referred here by two other lock shops because I lost my key fob.. the guys thought they had the right key for me but due to a miscommunication they didnt have the key I needed. They overnighted one for me and when that key was put on the wrong delivery truck, they called other businesses in the area to find this specific key for me. Once we got the right key it was a matter of minutes before I was paying and driving away. Overall honest professional and above and beyond service ! 10/10 recommend
