I can't say enough about the experience I had with F.A. Locksmith. I arrived at RDU having left my car key in security at the previous airport. They met me at my vehicle in the RDU parking garage at 9:30 on a Sunday morning. Scheduling was easy and the communication by text prior to the meeting was smooth and responsive. They were right on time. Remarkably, because of the sophistication of my vehicle's computer (and some changes to the door that had been made by a previous owner) it took them 12 hours to finally decode the computer and make the new keys. It was an extraordinarily complicated process - one that I felt they could have easily given up on at many junctures, but to their credit, they did not give up! They were committed to getting the job done and sincerely committed to not leaving me stranded. Throughout the process, they were incredibly polite and sincerely apologetic for how unusually long it was taking. Honestly, someone with less integrity and perseverance would have thrown their hands up at some point along the way, and said "I'm sorry I can't help you," but these guys were sincerely committed to doing what they had promised to do, and to fulfilling the commitment they had made to me. Despite the fact that it took more than 4 times longer than they had anticipated, they did not charge me any more than what they told me at the outset. To be clear, the length of the job they did for me was purely a result of the idiosyncrasies of my vehicle and NOT due to a lack of skill on their part. It was clear to me that they know what they were doing and are very good at their jobs. I think these guys are the best. I highly recommend them without reservation, and I will definitely hire them again for any locksmithing needs!
Mariano @ FA Locksmith was GREAT!! We had a stubborn door that required a lot of attention, and Mariano was determined to get it working better than ever while also helping us be as cost efficient as possible. His dedication to his work clearly shows. He was willing to put in the time & research to get the job done right! I highly recommend Mariano and FA Locksmith to anyone in need!
Response from the owner: Thank you for leaving us a positive review, Catherine. We're so glad we could help!
I had the car keys to my Honda Civic stolen late in the day Sunday and needed a replacement ASAP for work Monday morning. FA Locksmith came just 20 minutes after I called and got me into my car and had a new key made. There was barely an hour between me making the initial call and getting my new keys. Great customer service and reasonable pricing. Definitely recommend them - they’re a lifesaver!

Very friendly and professional. My steering wheel lock was stuck which wasn't allowing my car to start. I called late in the day so they weren't able to come out right away, but slotted me for the very first spot the next morning. The technician arrived in a timely manner and was very polite and walked me through what he would be doing to fix my issue. 40 minutes later the lock was replaced and I was able to use my car again. Definitely recommend!

Key fob and key, replaced the lost original keys for 2011 Audi A4 Quattro. I am amazed and elated with your services. I called your number with the problem, and was very skeptical that you could help. You promised to call me back within a few min. Which you did to tell me you would arrive at my daughters home in 25 min, which you did. My daughter has been stuck at home for 2 months with 2 small children due to lost original key and fob. Searched high and low in and outside the home, no keys. Audi dealer wanted to orders key fob for 150 bucks then have her car towed to dealership another 150 then said cost to program would be between 700-900 bucks. My daughter didn't have the money to do that and neither did I. I called you and within one hour from initial call including call back time, you were at her residence and had it DONE . The cost was less than half what the dealership would have charged. Thank you from me, her mother,who called you from 3 hrs away and from my daughter. God bless you and your business.
Response from the owner: First and foremost, as a mother of 2 young kids ourselves, we completely understand the frustration that your daughter was in. We're so glad you discovered our small business and even happier that we got your daughter and grandkids out of that situation. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. -- Michelle, owner
