I've done at least a half dozen transactions with Gabriel and the most recent one is no exception. Good communication, fast shipping, and quality product. Thanks Gabriel!

Another great transaction with Gabe. This time I was the seller. Quick responses and easy to communicate with. Always a pleasure.

I bought 3 SG keys cut to code for my karmann ghia and emailed him to see if he could speed up the process as much as he could. I ordered them last night and this morning when I looked at my email they were already shipped! I wouldn't go anywhere else for my keys. GABRIEL IS THE BEST!!!

Thanks Gabriel, keys, ignition, and cylinder arrived yesterday and are in perfect working order.

I appreciate how easy it was to communicate and your rapid turn around time.

When I acquire the appropriate decklid handle, I'll be sure to send it your way

I've had a couple of transactions with Gabriel and all went great. Last one, he hooked me up with a cargo handle that I had not been able to locate and rekeyed for me all within a reasonable price.

Thanks Gabriel!

I have purchase keys from Mr. Garcia a few times and each time they have been flawless and work just as an original would, I spent 29yrs. 2 mo. and 8 days in the U.S. Army and it's nice to be able to find someone who has structure in the work place and take pride in what they do each and everyday, thank you sir and keep doing what you do.

Getting a little irritated now and hoping a post here might resolve. I have used Gabe for keywork many times in the past with nothing but good experiences but he has had several of my split locks for months now and is not replying to e-mail or Facebook messages. Two of the locks belong to customers of mine who I am restoring pods for and they are getting impatient. Based on the recent posts here, he is still doing some work, and I see him posting on Facebook every week.

I fully understand being busy and having to prioritize stuff in your life/day job, etc. I also understand that sometimes you don't want to reply to someone about their work if you don't have a good reply for them. But Gabe, at least reply and let me know where were are with these locks. I do not like the thought of someone with over $1000 of my hardware not replying when I ask about it.

I have not heard from Gabe since January 27th.

Gabe, if you just cannot do this work for me, please just send the locks back. Thanks....

Well, it cannot all be good feedback!
This one, I'm not disputing! Well deserved!
Sorry I have not been able to finished those old (A) and (P) profile switches John, just have not had the head for them, I been staying busy and of course I do the easy stuff etc etc, but when it comes to early shifter locks, steering locks and Split and Barndoor locks they are hard to do and definitely required all my focus and attention, with the big move to the new shop and some personal drama, I just have not found the time to do it, also the 30 plus VW shows we do a year!
But enough of that, I'm on my way to Kelley Park this weekend and as soon as I comeback I will sit down for as long as it take me to complete your order!

Excellent, thanks Gabe. I understand about avoiding the "challenging" stuff too, especially when there is plenty of easier work to do that makes money as well. Have fun at KP, look forward to hearing from you afterward....

Just had some locks done by Gabriel, 3 locks all with different key ways. Turn around time was quick, all locks function as expected and price was reasonable.
Doing business with Gab is a pleasure ,and my brother is a locksmith what does that tell you.
My customer is persnickety and of all work done on his car this was the highlight. Dealing with Gab is like doing business with myself.
