Key Korner Sports Arena

As long as this is around ill come to it instead of going to a major department store. Cash only, extra little key chains and trinkets are priced a little high but all in all ive never had a problem here.

This is a handy little shop. Home Depot didn’t have the blanks for the keys I needed so this guy hooked me up with several keys in no time. I love to give these tiny places business instead of the big box stores. All of the keys worked properly when I got home and tried them. I recommend

CASH ONLY-​As cash does make the world go round! This place was super convenient. The guy was really quick and friendly. Also helped recommend me a key style for my car if ever needed. Awesome, friendly, and personable, and keys work fine.

Great little place to get keys done. They guy actually does it himself unlke how homedepot just puts it in a machine. Everything is done right away with no waiting!

Went to Home Depot to have duplicates made… they could not do it. Went to this little place; the parking was easy and the service was very quick and friendly. Awesome.

Well, I guess my review is the reverse of Jen C’s review… When possible I try to patronize local businesses rather than corporations/​chains, and since I had previously had no problems with working keys made from here I chose this place over Home Depot. I wasted my time because I still ended up at Home Depot after Key Korner couldn’t make the key correctly on two tries…
I took two different house keys to be made there. Now, to be fair, one key ended up working, the other didn’t. Yay for the working one, sucks for the not working one – 50% effectiveness rate is not so great. They were both house keys and as they were a spare, so it wasn’t a huge problem or anything. When I got the chance, I went back down there and pointed out that one key that they had made didn’t end up working. (I don’t know if the second guy was the same guy that had made the key the first time or not – but the second guy kind of casually blamed the other «older» guy.) Hey, said «OK, that oughtta do it» and handed it back.
Got home and the second-​try key still didn’t work. It looked exactly the same as the first one that didn’t work, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt and thought that maybe looks can be deceiving. (I’m still not sure if it was a second new key, or if he just ‘adjusted’ the first one.) Anyway, the darn new version looked the same, but I thought to myself –What do I know? Maybe these two grooves that are missing aren’t really a functional necessity. I mean, I’m not the one who’s been making keys for over 30 years.
Turns out those missing grooves that were gone from their two attempts were functionally necessary. So, my third trip down to the Sports Arena area, I just went straight to Home Depot and they got it right – on the first try (for cheaper, too). Sad to say, but true.

In and out in under 3 minutes with 3 new keys for about $ 7. It wasn’t exactly service with a smile (from a younger guy than described by others) but who needs it when you get no-​nonsense treatment and a great product at a very reasonable price? Will be back for sure for any future needs.

We originally went to get copies of a key at Home Depot, where they weren’t able to make the key. That was especially surprising because we’d bought the door and the lock from Home Depot. They did recommend, though, that we try Foulks.
The gentleman who made the key was extremely kind and unbelievably fast. I don’t think the whole transaction took more than two minutes. I’d recommend this place to anyone who wants great service, especially if you’d rather «buy local» than go to a chain that can’t get the job done.
A note: bring cash or a check. They don’t accept credit cards.

Great job, immediate service, can do difficult key things with ease.

This place has to have been in the same location for close to 20 years or more. Great service, and really cheap. You can also buy peppar spray here for whenever you need to re-​up.

Great service — I needed a key cut, and it was promptly done. My key was basic, but it looks like they can handle many types of keys, even chip car keys.
The Key Korner is located in a SMALL building in the same parking lot of Target (on the Sports Arena side). It is very easy to miss, it took me a while to find it. It is to the west of Wells Fargo Bank.

I popped in here after a visit to Target realizing I needed to make a spare key for my cat-​sitter. I walked in, handed my key to the nice gentleman behind the counter, and 5 minutes and $ 2 later I had my spare key. Key worked like a charm, and it was fast and cheap. I’ll be back!

I have been coming here for years. The older gentleman that works here I believe is the owner. Very friendly and inexpensive. There is not usually a wait and they offer fun key colours or prints. Parking isn’t an issue since this is located smack in the middle of the Target parking lot.
FYI: Cash or check are the only forms of payment accepted.

Excellent service. Those guys had everything I needed to re key my condo.

Legit spot. Was able to get a duplicate programed copy for my Inifiniti more than half the cost of what the dealer would charge in about 5 minutes. Life saver.

Love these guys. Old school customer service, and the best prices in town for rekeying. Thanks Foulks!

So I had just bought my first motorcycle and was looking forward to spending the weekend trying not to kill myself. But that Friday morning, I was doing something stupid and managed to bend the ignition key (and the spare) into near-​perfect U-​shapes. The dumbassery behind this calamity will go unshared, as I’m trying to maintain my shredded pride.
Since the clerks at the Home Depot or Mailboxes, Etc. have a tough time making functional copies of undamaged keys, I figured I’d have to order replacements from the dealer. However, I didn’t know of one nearby, and decided to swing by the Key Korner to see what could be done.
The Key Korner is housed in a tiny, free-​standing building that appears to be an uncontrived time capsule from the early 1980s. And the fellow who runs the place is unquestionably a savant of key-​cutting. After teasing me about the unfortunate shape of my keys, he shuffled into the back and returned in less than a minute with a flawless copy. I’m still in awe.
