Outstanding and quick service! We locked our one key in my husbands truck and called Glen and he was onsite in minutes and had the truck opened in a few minutes and made a second key while there. Very knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend his services!

I accidentally locked myself out of my car. With the car running. Onstar apparently couldn't help me because I stopped paying for the upper tiers last summer.
Glen was at my house within minutes & quickly unlocked my car! Professional & prompt. Highly recommend!

I misplaced my key fob as I was ready to leave town. Borrowed daughters car for trip and she found Glen. From his shop in the Colony, he drove to Sherman. His price was best of several and others wanted tow to them. He was friendly and on time. When I returned a week later I found my original fob and he programmed it at no additional cost. He met me in McKinney where he had an emergency customer and saved me the drive to his shop. It was a very positive end to what could have been a lot more trouble. Thanks again Glen!!!

I needed a new key + a spare and, on the recommendation of a neighbor, I called Glen. He was super quick, professional, and reasonably priced! Plus he came to my home, which is a huge bonus considering that the dealership wanted my car for 4 hours. Ill be saving his contact in my phone for any future locksmith needs!

Called Glen after calling a few other places and he responded quickly and came out on short notice and on time. Super professional, courteous, and friendly. We had a bit of a harder job and he stayed until he was able to complete and we appreciate his help!

My family had an amazing experience with Glen's lock service. Very patient, and knowledgeable with explaining the services we needed. He assisted with my grandparents and my aunt between Aubrey and Prosper. We highly recommend this business and we'll be using them in the future.

I was down to just a key with no fob or anything. Glen came to my work and fixed me up with everything I need while I worked. Incredible customer service! I would recommend to anyone.
