Nice guy. My car is possibly possessed. Lol it does weird stuff with the key fob, this guy went above and was gonna give me the extra fab so I don’t get locked out unfortunately the door had been changed on the car and it wouldn’t work. Nevertheless he tried the price was exactly what he stud it would be and he’s a very friendly people person. And with this guy customer service is back.

I was visiting the city from Georgia and my key fob died on me. Took my auto to Bowles Locksmith and ran into the most gracious husband wife team of the business. Among their professionalism the shop was clean with comfortable seating. As I waited, they tuned in humor and great conversation to their services; while they diligently worked on my issue. I was able to have great conversation with another customer. The price was very very affordable, I felt like I stole the key and was sad to leave when work completed. I highly recommend you visit Lonnie and Marissa if ever in the neighborhood. I promise you will not regret it. I am very very thankful!

Need a VATS key for an old school Cadillac. They had what I needed. Price was about one-third what I was quoted by other shops. Cut a new door key as well. Nice to have a working second set of keys, Very friendly and professional key shop. They have earned their Five Star reputation.

They couldn’t have been more professional. They could have easily just charged me for a new key after I believed my fob was broke and would no longer allow it to start. They walked me through solutions and got my car started. Saving me a ton of money. Would definitely recommend calling them just based on that honesty and helpfulness alone.

19:16 04 Nov 21

Lonnie was professional, on time, and even helped me with a special project while he was here! I won't say what, so everyone else does not expect it. Lol. My only issue with the whole experience was with the phone call to set up the appointment. I wish I had known some of my locks could not be keyed alike before he came. If I had known, I would have had new hardware here ready to go. Still, super service! I will use again and recommend.

They were extremely helpful and did not mind helping me answer the questions I had. They even wrote down the door key code for me so I can have a spare made down the road if I end up losing the ones they made for me. Would recommend to anyone that asks for a recommendation

Chris B.

17:13 11 Oct 21

This company is one of the easiest company to work with. They made our transaction so very easy and were much cheaper than other competitors. The man I talked to was so very kind to me on the phone. I would definitely use this company again and will refer them to family and friends…..

Broke down out of town and needed help getting my vehicle started minus a key or any locksmith within a two hour radius. Great communication, he guided me with photos I sent over and within minutes I was back on the road and out of harms way. “When you’re in a pinch, don’t flinch. Call Bowes Locksmith!” So much appreciated. Made getting here from Texas actual.

I had called the first locksmith in my Google search. They had good reviews, but our conversation suggested this was not the company I needed use. I looked for one in my area. Read the reviews and called Bowles. After I described my issue and I listened to the response, I was uber excited I chose this company! Lonnie was very nice, professional, and did a great job. If needed in the future, I will definitely contact them again.

Kelly P.

00:15 27 Jul 21

Mr. Don was the best! He was communicative and very helpful. I typically do this type of thing myself with my husband but really needed a quick turnaround. This was perfect. Mr. Don answered questions for me and shared his experience and depth of knowledge with me. I enjoyed my time with him. I am glad for him that he has such a wonderful time working with his family! I look forward to meeting you all in the future if I get the chance.

Veronica K.

19:41 23 Jul 21

I was having a problem with my key not being programmed to my car and I showed up and they got right to work. While they didn't have the correct key they ordered if for me and called me when it came in. When it did come it, it was so fast and perfect! This is the place to come! Family owned, nicest people ever!

George M

16:43 22 Jul 21

I had my only car key tear away from the fob. The dealership wished to have the car towed to their shop and wait for an opening to have one key made at a cost of 10% of what I paid for the car. Marissa worked with me for over two hours on the phone and in person to get a wallet key, new Fob key and transducer key for well under $100. Bowles has a new life long customer.

Jesse S.

17:39 18 Jul 21

Kim T

18:42 09 Jun 21

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. We showed up with blank key fobs and a broken toyota fob that was being held together with medical tape. Lonnie and Marissa never missed a step. They assembled fobs and cut two new keys using parts from our old keys, and programmed another then cut the blade for it as well. Lonnie personally tested each key to insure it worked properly. All this and never a grumble that we had walked in right before closing time. These are good people who are honest with their price. Definitely recommended

Julie S.

14:47 08 May 21

This family owned business is the real deal. The level of customer service they provided is something you hardly find anymore. From my very first phone call when I was pricing what I needed, to reaching out to me when my special order came in, then programming and sale they were friendly and professional and helpful. I will not hesitate to use them again for any locksmith service. Bonus: they were half of what the dealership would have charged me for what I needed! I highly recommend this business.

L M.

01:27 08 May 21

These people went above and beyond with a tricky lock experience. They showed up early and waited patiently for all parties involved and were kind hearted and understanding of the situation !! Not to mention their prices are reasonable as well ! Can't say enough good things about them !!! ❤

Jerald S.

My car was recently stolen needless to say it has been a horrible experience. Bowles Locksmith Services rekeyed ignition, door and trunk locks as well as a new key fob.

John T.

Recently purchased a new home and had Mr. Bowles install new door hardware and re-key some existing locks in the house. He did a phenomenal job and we couldn’t be happier! Very professional, and a genuinely kind individual. Would absolutely use him again in the future and recommend him to others.

James S.

15:28 23 Jan 21

My car had been stolen, but thankfully recovered. Upon arriving at my car at louisville metro impound, we realized there were no keys. We only had a few hours to move the car and Bowles was the only company that said they could make it that day. It was only an hour before they pulled in! Both of them were so kind and got to work immediately. They had a new key made for my car within 30mins. He ensured me that my old key wouldn’t start my car, which was something I had a lot of anxiety about so I really appreciated the reassurance. He even had a spare key made for me to lock my doors if I want to start my car and leave it, and also programmed me a key fob-something I didn’t have before.On arguably one of the worst days of my life, Bowles showed up and went above and beyond for me. I’m incredibly grateful and highly recommend!!

Suzanne C.

01:48 20 Jan 21

I called last minute/short notice due to locking my keys in my car but that didn't stop them from providing excellent/fast/professional/super friendly service! I was very pleased with price and service! Less than 5 minutes after Don's arrival, he had my doors opened. I would highly recommend them and definitely will use again if/when I find myself in that situation again! Thank you Bowles Locksmith for your service!
