Regular Grind

I read an article in the N.Y. Times about how difficult it was to find local locksmiths because some large companies purchase domains, manipulate Internet search results, and subcontract to "fly by night" locksmiths. Knowing that, I asked around for a good local locksmith. I frequently heard the name "Dayton" so I travelled a few extra miles to the shop. This was not a "fly by night" operation, they have been in business for decades. I had to duplicate a key, but it was not as easy as placing it in a machine to be duplicated. To keep it simple, Ill say the key was "damaged." The attitude of the employee who took care of me was worth the price of service. Rather than blame me for the key I brought him, he tried to help. The customer service was exceeded only by the skill of the staff. Again, to keep it simple, Ill just say they had to do some measurements with a micrometer, and they succeeded, and produced a duplicate that worked. The price was what you might expect to pay for a skilled locksmith, but not too high, and worth every penny. It appears from the breadth of the blanks they stock, they can produce a duplicate of nearly any key and I would rely on their advice in purchasing some of the locks and safes they sell.

I came in with my old, what i thought was a broken door knob expecting to have to buy a new one, the owner said its a very good 60yr old $200 door knob. He checked it out and said its ok, just spray some WD-40 and turn knob a few times to get lubricated and he thought it might last another 60yrs:) He was right, doorknob works great now. I was impressed that he offered free advise instead of just trying to sell me a new door knob. Ive been using these guys for years for spare keys, locks. They have always offered great service along with friendly knowledgable employees. Thanks for your help, guys!!!

They have made my keys for our 2011 Honda Odyssey and they work great! Saved me about $125. What some people dont realize is that modern keys have chips in them, so they have to be programmed. I ordered the remote fob from the internet and had the key itself cut by Dayton. There are YouTube do-it-yourself videos on how to program the keys, but I had to be pretty patient and meticulous.

The people in the store are great and always take the time to help. The service guys are great as well. Mike has been to my house many times and is always professional and tidy. Best locksmith company on the main line. PERIOD.

Great selection of keys. Found a match for my odd sized motorcycle key which has 4 variants. The new key works perfectly in both directions.
