How Mr. Keys Got Started

Our story began over 60 years ago with our founder and grandfather, Wallace. Driven by sheer determination and a genuine desire to help people, he established a residential locksmith service that initially offered other services. As the locksmith side of the business took off, Wallace focused his expertise there, laying the foundation for what we’ve become today.

In 1987, Wallace’s son Daniel took the reins, growing the business steadily and expanding our reach. By the late ’70s, we had opened our first storefront, and in the ’90s, began offering commercial doors and frames. In 2010, we expanded again to include aluminum doors and storefront systems, which now make up nearly half of our business. We also entered the access control space in 2015, a growing part of our services.

Rooted In Tradition -
Connected to Community
Today, the business is co-owned by Matt (Wallace’s grandson, who joined in 1999 and became a partner in 2010) and Candice. Together, we continue the tradition of exceptional service, innovation, and family values. While much has changed over the decades, our commitment to being Ocean County’s go-to provider for locksmith and door solutions remains the same.
We are proud to have been named Best Locksmith in Ocean County, NJ, numerous times. But what means the most to us is our deep-rooted connection to the community.
