My name is Julie Bradford. Our home was needed to re-key, I took an advise from a neighbor on NextDoor to call Glen's Lock Service at (972) 983-6904. I am so glad I did!! Glen was not only corrected our door locks that were rekeyed incorrectly by a previous locksmith's tech, he also replaced 3.5" screws on our front door's deadbolts to secure them. Glen's work was exceptional! he is very kind and professional! My husband and I are completely satisfied with Glen's affordable rates and the outstanding works he has done for us, and highly recommend him

Got there with in 15 mins had it unlocked and made me a spare key right then and there and programmed the key fob too! Very worth the price!

Quick and amazing service! My husband and I called at least 60 locksmiths trying to find someone to help us with a motorcycle key. Glen's lock service was polite and got us an appointment for just a few days later. My husband was amazed by their work and kind service. Will absolutely be recommending them to everyone.

Glen from Glen's Lock Service came to my home in February 2022 to cut and program a key fob for my 2013 Subaru Outback. He did a great job and was very knowledgeable about it. I will plan on using his services again. I highly recommend him.

I had a really great experience. We lost the only key we had to our truck. I called and Glen told me what all he needed from my fiance and me. ( info about the truck, proof the truck was ours).He was close by and came immediately. He made both keys in less than 15 mins. The entire process was right under 45 mins. He was professional and very kind. I highly recommend! Thank you again!

Glen showed up at the time agreed upon. It was not an easy job but he worked diligently to get it done. By the way, he was the only locksmith out of about 15 different companies i called that could do the job.

Glen was able to unlock my Nissan Altima, program 2 new smart keys, and cut new emergency keys in less than 30 minutes. He offered competitive rates compared to other locksmiths and charged less than half the price of the dealership. He was extremely friendly and answered all of my questions. I couldn't ask for better service!

Glen is very professional and knowledgeable! He went to my husband's job and made him a new key for his BMW. The dealership services are expensive and I had peace of mind knowing he is a legit locksmith and insured.

Wow - Glen was amazing! I called at least 10 locations looking for someone to make a motorcycle key. Everyone turned me down as they said it was too labor intensive - or I had to get the bike to their shop and then it'd be $500-$1000 to put in a new ignition. Glen was super friendly, and came out the next day. I was impressed at his knowledge and determination to get the job done right. Next time I need ANY lock work done - I'm calling 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!

Great expertise and service. Glen was able to create a duplicate for my 4Runner quickly, answered all my questions, and provided outstanding customer service throughout the experience. Thank you again, Glen.

Excellent follow through and communication, which is exceedingly rare anymore. He came out a second time to replace a key fob that was only partially operable which was going above and beyond. I definitely recommend Glen and will use his services for the next time I have a need.

Glen arrived exactly when he said he would and jumped right in. Despite my cars attempts the prevent him access and my offering an incorrect Vin number, he prevailed in generating new keys for my car. He is a pleasure to work with and offers value for your money. Thanks for being there Glen.
