Repeat customer. Great keys. Real deal. Easy. Get your code from the door handle. Send him the code. He sends you the key.
If all your locks match, then he can make you the key to open them all. If your key codes don't match, figure out which one you want made or have him make keys for all the codes.
You get what you pay for. If you are looking for cheap, go someplace else. His stuff is top notch and well worth the money. _________________ Ed

Throwing another very positive review in for Gabriel! I was so excited to learn that Gabriel offered a VW emblem key blank for the after-market ignition switch. I wanted to surprise my son with a "real" key to go with his prized possession 1965 VW Beetle. Gabriel had the blanks, shipped them fast. I took them to the local hardware store and they cut them from the original after-market key and it works perfectly.
Gabriel was great to work with. Quick to respond and a good price. _________________ 1965 VW Beetle - Second Time Around!

Gabriel responded to my ad for a bus cargo door handle core and paid quickly. Knows what he wants, wastes no time. Thanks again. _________________ ,,Wenige Menschen denken, und doch wollen alle entscheiden.'' -der Alte Fritz

Gabe inquired about some sheet metal I had for sale.
He knew what he was looking for.... and he took a few core bus door handles off my hands (at normal core prices).
Very fair deal... easy peasy... Thanks Gabe!

I got a Cargo door handle for my 67 bus from Gabriel. Not only was exactly what I wanted and hoped it would be, I received it right away. |

Ordered four keys from Gabriel for my '66 Bug cab, paid through PayPal, and had them a few days later. All I gave him were the codes on the keys and all four worked like a charm! |

Gabriel is awesome! I sent him my ignition, he fixed it and sent me the correct key! He was fast too. I was surprised at how quick he turned it around. His customer service is top notch. He answered every every e-mail, phone call and text. Thank you Gabriel! Look forward to working with you again this winter.

Gabriel cut a key for our "new" oval project. It arrived quickly and works perfectly. I think this is the first time the lock and ignition have been turned in decades!

Just today Gabriel took care of my ignition switch from my '57 Beetle and some handles on my '63 bus. This is not the first time I've done business with Gabriel but I have never commented. Excellent work...good guy. I keep coming back. _________________ Never assume that loud is strong and quiet is weak. |

Very impressed with the professional sale from Gabriel. The ignition I purchased from him was as described and I am very happy with it. Highly recommend this seller |

Excellent service from Gabriel, I needed a blank key in a hurry for my Type 3 ignition so I could have a spare cut give to the shipping company.
The local locksmiths could not help but Gaberiel came through with flying colours, dispatched it the next day and it arrived in the uk about a week later.
Better still it was an original blank which none of my local locksmiths would have been able to supply.
Many Thanks Gabe, for an excellent transaction.
I can heartily recommend. |
