I have a car that uses the uncommon Tibbe style key blade and was happy to find that Chris was able to cut and program the keys for my older Ford Transit Connect while I waited! With over 15 years of experience, Chris and his team are incredibly knowledgeable on all types of locks out there and they have the ability to cut and program nearly any automotive key, with few exceptions. Having River City make my new keys saved me a bundle over going to the dealership. Make River City your first call for locks and keys!

I do some handyman and boots on the ground work for some ladies who own a couple of properties here in Spokane. I went to take pictures of a home after some tenants left and there was no key in the lockbox so we had to call a locksmith.
Elizabeth from River City Locksmith was there in 10 minutes and was able to access the door in no time. She then re-keyed all of the locks and made extras. She was prompt, knowledgeable, professional and friendly. I highly recommend Elizabeth and River City Locksmith. Thank you Elizabeth!!

My brother is wild-land firefighter and locked his keys in the car on the way to a fire. I called and they were able to get to him in 4 minutes, and got his keys out even quicker! Amazing service, will definitely be back to get some keys made.

Aaron helped us make a key from scratch, was about 1/2 the price of the dealer and was even able to program it. Got us a master copy on top of the fob, very painless interaction!
