Excellent customer service! I had to get two copies of a key made. I was the only customer in the store when I visited and they had me out of there in less than 5 minutes with new keys. I had previously made the mistake of using one of those automated key copiers found in hardware stores, but the quality of the copy wasn't good. The two keys I purchased from McElheney Locksmiths were exact copies of the original.
