A 1 Minute Key Service

This will probably get lost in the number of reviews but there is a reason there are so many 5 star reviews. Not only is he the friendliest tradesman I’ve ever met, he knows his industry and knows how to act professionally. We had to call him to change locks on an eviction, which is never a fun experience. But arriving before us, he knew to park around the corner until we arrived and uses an unmarked van to avoid issues. Then he walked us through the process, was cordial with the tenants (who were sill moving out), and perfect in executing his job. On top of it all, he was the least expensive locksmith I have ever hired! Truly a fantastic experience.

Awesome! After having to vacate my apartment for my safety, get a Protective Order served on a roommate, then have the roommates skip out on paying their share of the rent I had the locks changed. Jeff was so kind & good that he actually restored my faith in humanity. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. God bless you.

We are a non-​profit and called Jeff out to re-​key our new women’s center. He was fast, efficient, and did a great job at a great price. We will definitely use him again!

Keys locked in my car flat rate of $ 60. When they arrived, he and another gentleman jumped out of the van & started working on getting my car unlocked. At first I thought it would be a little tricky, because my unlock button is in the middle console near my raido, (not on the side panel of the door like normal cars), But this was not a problem with these guys, they were professionals. They knew what they were doing and were able to get my door unlocked in the matter of minutes.

Jeff is fantastic at his job and very personable. He was right on time, and all the work was done effectively and efficiently. I would absolutely use his services again.

My significant other lost er, ‘misplaced’ my keys so I decided it was time to re-​key our 3 access doors. Jeff came out within an hour or so and completed the process in 30 or 40 minutes even though we have a couple of higher security locks and it took a little more time than a normal lock. Pleasant conversationalist and a great job ensured his card is filed for future use.

Jeff is excellent, I highly recommend hiring him and will use him again in the future.

I called to have our back door lock repaired as a part came right out with the key. Was told what time Jeff could come out and he arrived as promised. Very courteous and friendly. I would definitely recommend.

I would recommend Jeff to anyone. He does quality work, is quick and very personable. We needed 2 houses rekeyed… around 20 cylinders. Jeff was very reasonably priced. So if you need keys or the service of a great locksmith. Give him a call.

Jeff is the most amazing, personable, and efficient locksmith in the valley. What an incredible attention to detail and customer service. He had my locks changed in record time and for an incredibly reasonable price. He is without a doubt THE BEST. Settle for no one else but my man Jef!!!

I have two experiences with Jeff from A 1 Minute Key Service.
The first was a five star experience. He came out within 45 minutes to rekey my townhome after my short-​term tenants took my keys with them. He was done quickly and at a VERY reasonable price.
The second experience? Oh, where do I start…
We had a lock where the key was sticking in it and we had difficulty getting it out. We called Jeff and explained the situation. He came out and did not change out ANY parts, just fiddled with it and got it working again. He charged $ 145.95 to do that «fiddling»… and then said, if it stops working, then let him know and «I will come back out and take care of it». That is a pretty clear statement as to him coming back out to fix it again free of charge IF his $ 145.95 fiddling isn’t a long-​term solution.
Well, a couple weeks later, as you might expect, the lock began sticking just as bad as it originally had been. We called on Jeff again and this time his tune was very different. He said that he would be out on a Saturday. Well, Saturday came and went. And Jeff? Never saw him. Called him again and he said that he would be out on Monday. Did he show up on Monday? Nope.
So… we called him… again. This time he said it would be another $ 200 to fix the lock, PLUS another $ 85 for a new cylinder! When we brought up our prior conversations as far as him fixing what he did the first time for free, he said, «who is this?» After a brief explanation of who we were, he said, «I’m done with you!» and hung up!
Yep, that actually happened. Be careful with this locksmith…

Jeff is honest and really good at what he does. This is a shady business and to come out on a Sunday eve to a home I was staying at to replace the key (I lost) w a new lock and key for under $ 100 is probably UNheard of. Probably would have paid $ 300-​$ 600 elsewhere. Be cautious.

Jeff came out and re-​keyed new handles on my house and also picked/​replaced the lock on my security system box, after I forgot to mention it earlier while he was over. He turned around and came back, and although the cam lock was trouble, he was able to give me a replacement that he custom-​fit for the panel. That’s customer service… Thanks!

Such wonderful service at a great price! Super friendly as well. We will definitely use again!

Omg! Joseph should get a medal for fastest locksmith. He opened my 5 pin lock in less than 5 mins. Wow… he got here fast and efficient. I’m impressed and will use them again.

Had Jeff come out to make me some extra house keys, and while he was here, he cleaned up and lubricated the lock, and also straightened up the door hinge. All for $ 20! The customer service and quality cannot be beat!
Thanks, Jeff!

As good and easy as it gets. After a recent construction/​remodel project, I needed the house re-​keyed. Jeff was great on the phone but better when he arrived. After being told for years that our front door could not have the same key as the rest… he said not true and made it happen.
He also fixed some other door and lock issues he discovered free of charge. I don’t need a locksmith often, but when I do, I’ll only drink, I mean use, A1.

« Unilocal changed my life. You’re the guy from over there that had me initial the keys. When I went ouside to stamp the unit number on your keys, I remembeted. You put the picture on the page. Unilocal*had me come over to Scottsdale to speak. Thank you. »
Fourth of July rekey for an apartment after the manager failed on the promise to immediately re-​key. Neighborhood is not a top Phoenix one, the security door is brand new, the front door is tagged. We felt a re-​key was in order.
Thanks again Jeff. When Mama’s happy, everbody’s happy.

Got locked out of my house on a Sunday afternoon in June — so needless to say, it was 110 degrees out. I called and spoke with the owner who informed me he would call one of his guys and get back to me ASAP. I received a call within 2 minutes and was quoted approx 30 mins until arrival, and $ 85 cash to unlock the door. Craig was out locksmith. Very polite and professional. We were back in our house in no time!
I didn’t take the time to shop around for prices so I’m not sure if they have the best deals or not, but the ease and quickness of service made it worth while!

Jeff is a top-​notch guy with top-​notch services!
I somehow managed to lock myself out of my apartment tonight, without my phone, and without a shirt… luckily I had pants on! Long story short I have a security bar on my patio glass door and it fell back into position when I was outside… Anyway, with the help of an awesome neighbor, I was able to get on Unilocal and get a hold of A 1 Minute Key Service. Other places wanted to charge me $ 90+. What a buncha crap. Jeff was busy at another job but took care of me and gave me an A+ price. He even had to drill out my lock (it was a wafer lock) and still charged me a very decent price, including the cost of a new lock.
Good man.
