Had a wonderful experience with Shawn. He came out and made 3 keys for my company trucks. Took less than 30 minutes start to finish. He was very friendly and professional.

Joe was prompt and made excellent recommendations for the way I go about securing my house. Someone stole my keys and Pop a Lock was there and finished before noon the next day. They come highly recommended from me.

I was drunk so I had to take an Uber home so my keys were locked in the car across the river so he just let me in my house. You know me sign anything or you just tried my credit card so it was OK. The last experience I had was awesome.
