We had the pleasure of working with Brian. He did an excellent job, he was extremely kind, professional and efficient. My girlfriend and I were thrilled with the job that Brian did and would recommend both Eastway and Brian specifically to anyone who needs a locksmith.

I went to Home Depot to try to get some keys for a church mailbox made. They told me they weren't able to do it. I went to Eastway Lock & Key and they were able to make them. I had 3 copies made and had no problems using any of them. They do have a setup outside for service due to COVID, and it was convenient and quick. Service:Building key copying

I had a trailer hitch locked onto my vehicle, but no key to remove it. Drove it over and they had it off in short order. Took 2 of them, apparently it was a tough lock and also in a very awkward position to work on. But they were super professional and friendly. I'm thinking there's a good reason they've been around *forever* in Charlotte. Would not hesitate to use them again. Awesome service!

Incredible service! We called Eastway Lock and Key when we accidentally locked ourselves out of our house. They responded right away and were at our house in less than 30 minutes. Daniel was great to work with and got us back in our house in no time. Love the fact they are locally owned and operated as well!

Called Amanda late this morning and Kenny showed up with everything needed for the job after lunch. Amanda was pleasant and efficient. Kenny is clearly a Master Locksmith. My crawlspace door wouldn't latch. Friendly, courteous, efficient, and wearing appropriate PPE. The work was done quickly and completely. The price was very reasonable for the quality and efficiency of the work. Please accept my thanks and express my appreciation to Kenny, Bosses. My experience is that Amanda is outstanding and that Kenny is the best locksmith I've ever encountered. Your blessed to have such superstars representing your company.

I took my Kawasaki Motorcycle key to AKM Locksmith on Monroe Rd to have a copy made. They indicated it was a really difficult key to copy and wanted $45 with me providing the blank. So I declined and took my blank and master to Eastway. They made a perfect copy and charged me $4. They will get my repeat business.

I went for duplicate car key for my 2014 Ford Escape. The receptionist was super friendly and Miro, the owner was professional and nice. Key works great. He also helped me figure out how to connect my phone to bluetooth gps when the sales person at Ford couldn't. They also have the cutest house keys I haven't seen other places.

Contacted Eastway Lock and Key to replace the deadbolts and doorknobs at my home. The gentlemen who scheduled my appointment informed me that they could re-key my existing hardware which would save me a lot of money. Jack came out today and quickly and professionally handled the job for me. Eastway was recommended to me by my sister and I will surely recommend Eastway to my colleagues and friends in Charlotte.

Very professional. I received really great service today. The location was about 30 minutes away from me but totally worth the drive. Spend your money here.

The guy was really nice and cleaned up behind himself. He was able to fix the door jam, not the set screw. The price seems really high for 30 minutes of work.

They were extremely easy to work with. They showed up exactly when they said they would. We discussed the job and they got to work. The keys were cut in their van and they were done quickly. Good work.

They came out promptly. The guy who did the work was wonderful. He consulted with us and his supervisors. He told us exactly what he was doing and worked very hard to get it exactly how it needed to be. We really enjoyed working with him.
