    We lost our key to the rental car, and we used our roadside assistance. Thankfully they work with Bill's Keyshop, and he was able to get us a new key made. He worked with us financially, and more importantly, he went above and beyond by helping us load our walkers after seating me safely in the vehicle. I highly recommend Joe(the owner), for both his craftsmanship and his humanity.

Q: Can you email a duplicate key to somone if they pay with a debit card over the phone ?

A:

Hmmm. I'm fairly certain that is not possible. The duplicate key would need to be physically mailed to you. In addition the shop would need the original to make a copy from. Good luck.

I don't remember exactly but I think it was 20 or 30 bucks for the first key and 7 or 8 for each additional key. Sorry but if you call them, they'll tell you.

A:

It depends on lock type and if you lost the original key. If you are just getting a basic copy it's under $10. If it is something more complicated you'll have to ask them directly for a quote if they can do it.
