We’re Still Open!

Recently our Google my business listing was suspended. This also happened a number of years ago for reasons unknown and was sorted out within a few weeks by resubmitting our info and some back and forth. That being said, we are still open.

JD Locksmith Solutions provides 24/7 emergency Locksmith service to Plymouth, Barnstable, Bristol and Norfolk counties. We consist of 2 technicians, are fully insured and are a member of the Massachusetts Locksmith Association ID # 826. We offer residential, commercial and automotive services.

This means we can get you back into your home or business, add deadbolts to an entrance, fix door and lock issues, add door closers, replace your lost automotive keys and much more. We make short work of fitting or fashioning keys to antique hardware and are trained in many aspects of the trade.

A note about Google listings-
Google is going through some growing pains with their listings right now. A lot of listings are being suspended and a lot of what remains, including those google verified listings, are call center scams. Consider checking the reviews (not just the five stars as those are often bought) and looking for any that indicate bait and switch or other schemes. Also be vigilant of call centers and pricing schemes that seem too good to be true (i.e. 15 dollars service fee etc.)

JD Locksmith Solutions can be reached at (508)535-5625 for all your locksmith needs and feel free to ask us about what we can offer you, your home or business.

Why you should buy your car keys from a local locksmith

With the internet at your fingertips, buying anything you need has never been easier. Whether through Amazon, Ebay or the countless other websites picking up a duplicate car key seems like it too can be quickly done with nothing more than a few clicks.
Unfortunately, consumers often screw themselves over by buying their replacement or duplicate keys through websites. It’s a little more complicated and below are some pitfalls to avoid and alternatives to consider.

Make sure it’s the right key -
Double check, triple check and don’t assume. It doesn’t matter if it looks like your key, because the vast majority of car keys are transponder keys. Not only does the key blade need to match but the internal chip needs to match as well. Many car lines use several keys that look the same but either utilize a different internal chip or use a different key blade.

Make sure its not a “shell”-
A shell is an empty car key or remote. It doesn’t have the chip necessary to be programmed to the vehicle. Unfortunately many consumers purchase these because they are the cheapest option and look exactly like their key and are “compatible” with their vehicle. They aren’t made as a replacement or duplicate key, but rather as parts to repair a damaged key.

Don’t assume you can program it-
Most vehicles cannot onboard program a key unless it has 2 already programmed keys and many cant onboard program at all and require a special computer to do so.

Don’t assume a locksmith or dealer will program it-
Many dealers/locksmiths wont cut or program customer provided keys. The issue is thus, first we can’t assume you got the right thing. In my experience it’s about 50/50 that customers purchase a legitimate key elsewhere and want me to program it. Often customers bring me shells or a key that’s identical but with the incorrect chip and its useless. While JD Locksmith Solutions will program customer provided keys we take no liability with those keys. We can’t warranty customer provided keys as we cant control the quality or accuracy of the product. Most locksmiths, ourselves included will still charge if called out to cut and program a customer provided key that turns out to be the incorrect blank.

A Better way to do it-
Buy your keys outright through your local locksmith. JD Locksmith Solutions has a 90 day warranty on all hardware provided. We want to leave you with a hassle free working product, and should it fail to meet your needs we can replace it. We also know what your vehicle needs and are equipped to provide it. JD Locksmith solutions can be reached at (508)535-5625 for all your automotive, residential and commercial locksmith needs 24/7.
