Fantastic experience with Dave. He came in on Saturday July 4th(!) to work on my 2 replacement car fobs. Cut and programmed for half the price of others I looked at. Had one working fob, brought my own blanks, easy and fast. Promptly responded to my email requesting a quote. Highly Recommend!!

We called A Cheaper Locksmith to re-key our new build, which David came over later on our move in day. We were all tired, but David was not only professional, but friendly, quick and knowledgable. Plus, it was a great price. I highly recommend them.

Wow! Experienced locksmith David helped us get a new key fob for our car. In and out in about 10 minutes. Way cheaper than dealer and the mobile folks who go to Costco! Original part fob and not aftermarket. Was recommended by 2 other locksmiths who are located on other side of Louisville. Great experience!

I needed to gain access to my son’s gun safe, I was looking for paperwork I thought may be stored inside. They were able to help me out the same day I called. What they thought would be a simple and easy job turned out to be much more difficult. They probably spent two or three times as long working on it as they were expecting to. After all was said and done, they asked me if $20 seemed fair. I was blown away as I thought it would be five times that. Super nice people, everyone in the shop was very friendly and professional.. And at the end they found out the reason I needed to get into the safe was because our son had passed in a traffic accident- they didn’t want to accept payment. I insisted and just left the money on a shelf. If you ever need another locksmith, I would highly recommend them.
