Car Locksmith in Hillsborough County: Smart Locks
Smart Locks is proud to be among the best car locksmiths in Tampa FL. Serving since 2007, we are an owner-operated locksmith business, not a franchise and not a national call center. When you call, you speak with our team directly, and the price we quote is the price you pay.
For us, honesty is a principle we do not compromise on. Some locksmith companies advertise a $19 service call, but that is rarely what you pay in the end. Smart Locks quotes you an honest, accurate price on the phone based on what you tell us you need. After 19 years in this business, our reputation is worth more to us than any single job.
Our services include car lockouts, lost car key replacement, key fob and transponder programming, ignition repair, and residential and commercial locksmith services across Tampa.

Testimonials
Client Feedback & Reviews
I locked myself out of the car and left the keys on the front seat. Along with the car keys was my house key. After calling a few different locksmiths, I got in touch with Danny. He was personable, professional, and quick to respond. The price he quoted me beat everybody else's and he was able to get the job done super fast. Through it all he was able to display the kind of demeanor that would keep a client relaxed during a stressful situation.
Outstanding customer service. Danny is reliable, quick and professional. He came out on a Sunday night to the airport and got us going again in a few short minutes. He was communicative, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. I cannot say enough good things about his service, and highly recommend him for your commercial and residential needs.
I'm extremely satisfied with smart locks, I went on vacation in Tampa, lost my rental car keys in the middle of the night, I called two other companies that was closed but Danny from smart locks was able to arrive within half an hour and make me a key in no time! Extremely fast, friendly and professional service, thank you Danny
I lost the only key to my car. After struggling with the car dealership, a tow company, and AAA, I found Smart Locks. Not only was the service quick (5 minutes to make two keys without an original) it was also professional and courteous. And the best part- around 1/2 the price the dealership was going to charge me for 1 key. I absolutely will call Smart Lock next time and will instantly recommend it to everyone else.
