If you've searched for reviews on other locksmiths that can assist with a new car key fob and/or fix your existing one; look no further! About Town Lock & Key *is* the place you want to go to! I dealt with Richard who was excellent, ordered me a new key fob and fixed the issues with my existing one in no time! Auto Key was closer but their price kept increasing ridiculously within a period of two months which was comparable to the quotes you'd get at a dealership. I will return to About Town Lock & Key in the future and highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you again Richard and Colleagues, Lee
