Jonah was the best! He helped fix our doors to the exterior and was very kind and friendly! Much appreciated sir!
I had three keys reprogrammed and one key fob programmed, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Charles does impeccable work and was very transparent throughout the entire process, explaining everything clearly and making sure I understood what was being done. His professionalism, attention to detail, and efficiency really stood out. I highly recommend them for any locksmith services you may need—you can trust that the job will be done right. 🔑👍
Mariano Ortega did a great job, was able to get me in early, and was quick. Thanks so much.
We had such a wonderful experience with Charles. We called expecting to schedule a service visit for what we thought would be an expensive key fob issue for my Volvo XC-60. Instead, he kindly asked us to send a quick photo and took the time to walk us through a simple fix over the phone. It took less than 15 seconds to resolve — and he didn’t charge us anything.We even offered to compensate him for his time, and he graciously refused. That level of honesty and professionalism truly meant a lot to us. It’s rare to find someone who prioritizes helping people over making a quick sale.If we ever need a locksmith in the future, Charles will absolutely be our first call. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner: This is such wonderful feedback, Carly. Charles is happy to save customers time and money if the solution doesn't require an expert. We truly value your review and are happy to know that we earned your trust for future locksmith and security services in the future. -- Michelle, co-owner
I reached out to FA Locksmith to program an Audi key that I purchased online and Charles came right out and took care of everything for me. I also ended up purchasing an Audi key from Charles that had more functionality than the one I ordered online. He took the time to explain the difference between the 2 keys and programmed the spare key for me at no charge since I didn’t quite purchase the right one 😂. Thanks for your professionalism.
Response from the owner: This is great feedback, Kason! We are just happy that we got you the correct parts for your vehicle. Thanks for trusting our team of licensed locksmiths to get this taken care of for you. - Michelle, co-owner
Mariano was amazing! Arrived quickly and changed my lock in under 45 minutes. Super friendly and informative about my new lock.

Juda was great and very informative while’s making me a key for my vehicle in a timely manner
Response from the owner: Awesome feedback! We appreciate your trust.
I called a few companies and FA Locksmith answered and they came out and reprogrammed a key for me. Would happily recommend.
My car was broken into and my car and house keys stolen. Charles and Mario were able to come out that day and fix everything. They did a wonderful job and were reasonably priced. They both stayed late to get everything finished and acted with urgency given the security issue. They were very professional and it was great to have one company take care of both the house and car keys (electronic fobs). I would highly recommend them to anyone! Thanks!
Response from the owner: Andrew, we're just glad you and your family are safe & sound. It's easy assisting customers as kind as you. Thanks again for trusting our team to get the job done. - Michelle, co-owner

Great service! We needed a 2nd vehicle fob/key made. They requested clarifying vehicle information in advance and came out the same day. They reviewed the pricing prior to starting work as well. Took maybe 15 mins or so. I would highly recommend FA Locksmith for any locksmith service.
Response from the owner: Robert, this is excellent feedback for our team and for others who aren't familiar with us that may come across your review. We sincerely appreciate your valued trust in our services. - Michelle, co-owner
the fob for my car was losing its charge and I needed a new one. the dealership price was outrageously expensive. I contacted F.A. Locksmith and they were at my house the next day. the technician, Mariano, was efficient and very professional. I had my new fob(s) within 30 minutes. I highly recommend this company should you need a new fob your car. and if I ever need any other type of key, I will certainly use F.A. Locksmith. excellent experience.

Lost my only car key for a 2006 model and was fortunate enough to have Mario as my technician. He was very professional, thorough and knowledgeable. Highly recommended the company based on my experience. One call, 10 minutes later a response call from Mario and we set an appointment after work hours during an extremely cold evening. He worked in the dark, solved the problem and the new key works perfectly.Thank you Mario!!!

Response from the owner: Not all heroes wear capes! Thank you so much for trusting us to turn a stressful situation into a good experience.
Grateful to have found FA Locksmith they took care of duplicating a key FOB for us when another firm couldn’t. Price escalated by about $75 more than the estimate. Tech did a good job of explaining what he was doing and how everything worked afterwards. Would use this service again.
Response from the owner: Hi Elizabeth, thank you so much for your feedback!We’re glad we were able to get your key fob duplicated when others couldn’t, and it’s great to hear that the technician took the time to explain everything clearly. We also understand your concern regarding the price adjustment. With modern vehicles, key programming and parts can vary based on the car’s security system and the specific components required, which can only be confirmed once our diagnostic equipment is connected to the vehicle and the correct parts are identified by VIN.That said, our technicians are required to review the final price with customers and receive approval before performing any work. We always aim for full transparency, and we apologize if that process wasn’t as clear as it should have been.We truly appreciate your trust and your business, and we’d be happy to help again anytime you need us.
