Every job is handled personally. No subcontractors, no call centers. When you contact The Key Man, Dylan is the one who shows up, diagnoses the system, and completes the work on site.

Dylan brought and programmed a key on the spot, cut the blank key insert with no existing key all in less than 30 minutes the day after I called. Quick to quote over the phone. Very informative and knowledgeable. Very good business. He recommended a better quality key fob and it definitely made sense! Much more affordable than a dealership.

Could not recommend more! Dylan was as professional as they come, he operated quickly and efficiently. This process was so easy and was completed within the hour I called to request service. This is a well set up and trusted businessman, don’t hesitate to call!!

The Key Man did an awesome job at getting a key made for my 2021 Ford Expedition. The service was quick. He was very flexible with being able to meet up with me. It was an OEM key, not some knock off. It works just as it should. He made my key for almost half the cost the dealership would have changed me. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

I cannot say enough good things about The Key Man in Charleston. I needed a new key cut for my granddaughter‘s car and they were absolutely outstanding. They were incredibly responsive and professional throughout the entire process. It is so rare to find this level of customer service anymore. if you need a trustworthy, skilled locksmith this is the business to call. Highly recommend.

The best service experience I have had in a long time. Just like other reviews say, Dylan is a great communicator, incredibly knowledgeable, fast, and less expensive than alternatives. There is absolutely no reason to go anywhere else (except you don’t even have to go anywhere!).
