Rebecca Woytiuk

Gave me over-the-phone troubleshooting advice that worked to fix our door lock saving me a ton of $$$ and required no service call. Way to save the day! Thank you!

Jeff Wood (Nanaimo Realtor)

I had a problem with a lock and tried for hours to fix it myself. I didn't want to have to spend the money on a locksmith. so finally I took it into them they fixed it in about 1 minute and charged me $10. They were fantastic.

These guys are the best. They carry all different kinds of locksets and can key any of them to your key in minutes. Great doing business with them everytime.

Rob Sannes

Needed a new key for my old vw. My original was so worn out it wouldn't unlock doors or the ignition unless I did a wiggling lock picking action. I took the key and a lock with the code on it and had a new perfectly working set of keys in less than 5 minutes. Super pleased. Thank You!

Ed Robinson

Never a bad key, they are the lock masters of Nanaimo

Tyrant Chimera

Had an issue with a key I'd purchased getting stuck in a lock. Called them, brought it to the shop, and that sucker was out in ten seconds flat. Very prompt service and pleasant atmosphere, thanks for the help!

Robert Hollman

It was fast and cheap to get the key programed

Alan Christensen

These people are fair priced and long established in Nanaimo. Plus great product selection.

Dylan Roguski

Came and installed two door handle/deadbolt assemblies for us. When the weather changed and the door shifted/swelled and the deadbolt became difficult to turn they came out the next day and fixed it for us. Great service!

Glenn Kemp

Best locksmith in Nanaimo!

Michelle Brassard

The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Prices are reasonable. They had my order done in less than 24 hours! Really appreciated that so this is where I will be going from now on. Thank you

Scott P

These guys are actual locksmiths, not just some person that was trained for 8 minutes on how to cut a key.

I have dealt with Gallazins for many years and I recommend you dismiss the one negative reviewer's comments as atypical. I have been served by different people and never experienced rudeness or bad service of any kind. They have always been very helpful and knowledgeable, and often do a little extra that others would not. They can now supply and program transponder keys for cars at less cost than the stealerships. I have used them for this service and was very pleased with both the savings and the service. They have also rekeyed locks for me, keyed alike locks from different manufacturers, and provided good quality high security locks for me. Even if you bring in locks that you bought elsewhere, they still give you the same good service. There's no reason to buy from American big box stores when you can get all this from a long established local supplier.

Ryan Little

Great customer service

Jay Bee

Thank you for going above and beyond to help me fix my kia key fob issues! Great service!

Dave P

Went above and beyond to get my new fob/key programmed and functional when it seemed like it might not be possible. In the end, saved hundreds of dollars versus ordering and going through the dealership. Their high standard of professionalism and results is matched only by their excellent customer service skills. Supporting local businesses has never been made easier than by this team. Thanks!

Stu Setch

Supporting local is great, but only if the company provides superior service and fair pricing which Gallazin does in spades! Service tech was incredibly nice and couldn't have been more helpful. Was surprised by how inexpensive the hardware was and stunned at how quickly they showed up to solve my exterior lock problem. Could not recommend more highly!!

Kevin Delaney

Haden Gibbons

Quick service, and costs way less that I would have thought to get some keys cut.

Adam Gulka

Locked myself out of my truck while I was there and the guys helped me unlock it. They stayed 20 minutes after closing just to help me open it up. So they get 5 stars from me

Chris Cathers

Great business with quality service and quality staff. Special thanks to Dan for going the extra mile and taking care of his customers. Rarely do you find businesses that are so committed to their clients. Best locksmith on the island.

David Hollebone

Personable and honest help. When the self-supplied fob didn't program properly they refunded their entire charge at their own volition. Doesn't get better than that.

Nathan Robertson

These guys are the best. They carry all different kinds of locksets and can key any of them to your key in minutes. Great doing business with them everytime.

Bob Colclough

The only place I've gone for locks and keys etc., both personally and for work, since 1971. Couldn't be more knowledgeable, nor more helpful. Always a pleasure.

L J

Unfortunately only giving 3 stars as they gave us some incorrect information about an automatic lock we purchased. We were told to buy a specific brand to be able to rekey it to our keys, only to go out and purchase it and bring it back to be told that that specific brand recently changed their keys and was not able to be keyed to our current keys. 2 trips and no successful resolution unfortunately. Nice guys so I wish I could rate higher.

Deva Veylan

Friendly staff!

Cassandra Smith

Hammond H

Always great service

Jody Chambers

They were able to help me get a key for some old vending machines I have, they had a large ring of old keys on hand and found one to match. This is why you go to businesses that have been around awhile, no new company would have that many old keys around to choose from

Mark Brown

The guys were great, got half a dozen keys cut fast and inexpensive. They all worked and I was in and out in under 10 min. Fantastic. Sure beats the big orange box.

L Bereck

Dan cut me a couple new keys for my 2015 Ford F-150 and programmed the new Transponder FOBs as admin keys at a fraction of what the Ford dealership wanted and proved the dealerships don’t have exclusivity to recoding the newer vehicle key FOBs. He understood my situation and worked with me to replace my broken key fob and get me back on the road in no time. Thanks a ton Gallazin Locksmiths!
