  Clearly this place isn't hurting for five star reviews - but I'm giving them another!! I couldn't find a review for their key duplicating services (thrilling stuff!) so here it is.... They are awesome at this as well. I went in with a beat up old van key, and the guy was very kind and went above and beyond. He remarked that my key was obviously very old and the ridge details had worn down, and asked if I was having any issues with the doors as they could be caused by this. He then made me a straight copy of my key, as well as a key that was a bit thicker and closer to what my key probably originally looked like. What?! Those dumb key kiosks don't do that. Also, they usually don't even work. Also, the guy working here was a lot cuter than those kiosks. The prices somehow felt even cheaper, and the service was top notch. One last thing... they have TINY SWORDS that you can have your house key duplicated onto! Yes, my key is now a sword. You never knew you wanted that, but you do.

  HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Fantastic service at a great price. Our lock jammed and the door wouldn't open - it's a silly complicated non-standard European lock that the former owner installed and Bob was unfazed, fixing it fast and at a great price, including doing a quick run for parts. He also tightened a second lock for me as a favor which I really appreciated. Felt very well taken care of and won't use any other locksmith.

  after reading several five star reviews I decided to go with Ballard Lock & Key to add a deadbolt on a metal door and am happy to add another five star review. The tech Aaron was very prompt, efficient, personable and respectful of my home. I will be keeping their phone number nearby in case I need to call on Ballard Lock & Key again
