Been using this company for years, everything from making a key to opening/repairing vaults, they have built key control systems for entire buildings, installed security camera systems and repaired or replaced vehicle keys, and always with great service after the sale, they guys were very helpful and knowledgeable and able to guide me to what I need without a lot of upsell, thanks C and E!

C&E saved the day for us and I’ll be forever grateful. Had an emergency and needed to get into our malfunctioning home safe immediately. It was Friday night before a holiday weekend. Colton was at our house at 11:00PM, drilled out our safe and got it open. Fantastic work, great attitude, and extremely timely response. Cant recommend enough. Sorry to see there are some many haters on here but we had a great experience with C&E.

Absolutely stellar customer service and workmanship.
We rekeyed all the door on a new home and Caleb from C&E looked at all the doors and rekeyed the locks and tested the new keys.
They were able to get me on the schedule in 2 days and did all the work quickly.

I’ve used C&E Lock for over 30 years, from working at the Holiday Inn to the Jones Center to my last job at Arkansas Support Network. I’ve even used C&E for personal work on my home. Jeff and his staff have always provided exactly what I needed, when I needed and never said they could not provide such. I would never consider any other locksmith company for any lock or security work I would ever need.

final update: i took him my receipt from toyota showing that it was a programming issue, proceeded to tell me that even with proof from toyota that its the cars fault not theirs, which now works perfectly after programming! He told me that the way toyota did it they dont even have the ability to do (like i originally said). Still no refund even though he said if i did this, attached and highlighted in the review, i would get a refund. unfortunately will be taking them to small claims court and making my report to the AG office. since we are using petty google quotes and before he tries to say oh your re seed means the car had issues just see attached....
Scammed me on a Toyota key, ordered on a Friday came in Wednesday. Went to get it programmed and they failed to program any functions but the ability to start the car with it in ignition. Push start functions not working, lock unlock not working, and panic button not working.
They couldn’t say if the car or key was at fault just that they would have to get with the manufacturer for a potential warranty. Which I was then told there wouldn’t be a guarantee that the manufacture would honor, which I’m taking as I will be left with a key as useless as the one I’m trying to replace. (The buttons have worn completely off the cars original key not allowing it to lock and unlock with the fob hence why their key is useless)
I asked for my money back which I was told there is no refund for special orders and we have to go through the warranty process. I understand this however, I expect my product to work when it comes in, the person to have the knowledge of what’s going on with the product, and the guarantee that I know I will have an issue resolved. There is 0 guarantee and I have become extremely un easy that they will even be able to program on the 2nd attempt. It also didn’t help that the guy helping me didn’t even know how to change the battery in the key. I had to show him!! This really didn’t help with the confidence that they could actually do this. I explained I would rather take my money to the dealership where they can order the key in a timely manner, program it properly, and if there is any issues inform me of how it needs to be corrected. This way I’m not stuck in a loop of waiting for keys to maybe work over who knows how long. I was told I’m entitled to my opinion and that nothing can be done and they will attempt to start the process for warranty.
The situation could have been as simple as “Sorry we weren’t able to get this key to work and we are unsure why. We can go through the warranty process that usually takes X amount of time or provide you a refund.” Sadly it did not and here we are. It is not the customers responsibility to cover the cost of faulty items between you and your vendors. Once again I understand no refunds but no refunds on defective items??? Yeah that’s a joke.
Update to respond: I can’t believe they came back and blatantly call a customer a liar this is absolutely atrocious customer service at no point did they blame the cars immobilizer system. They told me “we are not mechanics” we do not know what the issue is and have no way to tell. Hence why I wanted my money back. They ordered the key replacement “warranty” as a shot in the dark that the key itself was defective AT NO POINT WAS ANYTHING EVER MENTIONED ABOUT THE CAR HAVING ISSUES. Infact I have full scans from prior to when they touched the car and I have the scan 15 mins after I left showing that it failed to program. The only immobilizer fault present in the car is MISMATCHED KEY CODING because they FAILED to code the key. Oh that personal phone call he instantly attacked me for my review and basically screamed at me the majority of the call.
And yes the key I have for the car none of the buttons work and the smart function doesn’t work. Because like I said the buttons are missing and damaged so they can’t show that the cars the issue, the existing key was also missing the battery and I told them that as well. However it’s smart functions did not work because it is damaged.
