Dependable Lock Service

It’s a nice, local shop with staff that is super helpful and patient and willing to take the time to answer questions and address your needs. The few times I’ve needed to do business here, my experiences were positive.

I have a Toyota Corolla with two oem chip keys. One is worn-​out and will start the car but will not open the door. The dealer wanted $ 75 for a new key and $ 100 to reprogram the computer to add the key. I wanted a garentee that the new key would work well and they cut two non-​chipped keys to see if they would work. Both work horibble and they were cut buy code. I did not have the chipped key made and have always worried that one day the worn key would be unusable. When I lived in Nashua I had had some work done by Dependable lock and the where always great. I called them to see if they did coded key and they say yes, bring it in. With out any trouble they made me two new coded key and programed them with their machine to start the car. They worked perfectly. I should have never tried the dealer. They are great guys. Thanks so much. (Jerry)

Great bunch of guys, helpful, and reasonably priced.
I needed a key for my front door and brought the lock so they could make one for me. As it turns out, this wasn’t a typical, standard, run-​of-​the-​mill lock but some screwy kind of device that needed the original key and a special tool in order to re-​key it. Ben took the time to work on the lock and managed to identify a key for the lock. It cost me a little more that expected but he saved the lock and provided me with 4 keys for $ 30.
They also have a good selection of safes and related items.

If you’re in an emergency, call Dependable. I had an after-​hours, locked myself out type of emergency. First two calls to other services left me feeling like I would be extorted or… well, at the very least not comfortable with the men who might arrive. Dependable was the third place I called. From the get-​go I knew I was dealing with honest professionals. I was told the cost ($ 45 lower than the cheapest of the other two estimates), that I would need to show ID to prove I wasn’t «breaking in,» and that Bill would be there within 20 minutes (I was in downtown Nashua). DEAL! After reading other’s reviews on their automotive offerings, I’ll be bringing Dependable my non-​emergency business as well.

I lost my keys and called they guys to make a new chipped key. They were here within an hour on a Saturday and got my all keyed up. Thank you very much. I’d recommend these guys anytime.

I never give 5 stars, but these guys were darn close. Their sale price on a gun ‘safe’ was great and when the manufacturer said to go lower, their normal price was even better. When looking at other firearms security devices their prices were good and ‘meh.’ If customer service is your thing (like me), it’s a must-​go. These guys are my next stop for safes and locks moving forward; support local small businesses!

Spoke with Matt about a problem I was having with the ignition locking up on my 2004 Toyota Avalon. The dealer told me they would most likely need to replace the ignition and keys and reprogram the new keys. The dealer estimate was anywhere from $ 300.00-$ 500 depending on what it actually needed. I ended up bringing it to Dependable Lock where they took the ignition out and cleaned it for the total of $ 65.00. I am very pleased with the service I received and any future problems I have I will be sure to go back to Dependable Lock with any problems I have in the future! The Toyota dealers answer was a new ignition and possibly all new keys (so glad I didn’t just have the dealer replace it).

They were able to duplicate special keys that no one else had managed to to do correctly, and at a reasonable cost. I would certainly use them again.

I needed remote entry key fobs for my newly purchased used SUV that didn’t come with it. Dependable Lock was able to quickly program a set for my vehicle as well as cut a spare key for me. They were very professional and explained the process, timing and cost. Their cost was the highest out of the three quotes I received for purchase and programming, but we’re within $ 25 for the two. They were conveniently located, had great hours and I was able to walk in without an appointment. In addition to being an automotive locksmith, they offer many other lock services as well. If I am in need of key or lock services in the future I would return.
