Made a key for me. Only does door keys. Can’t do the ones with a chip, or just won’t. Cash only. Doesn’t take card he said.
Still requiring masks. I didn’t have one but he still made my key. $8 for a Toyota door key.
Needed a vintage car key duplicated. This grandma grandpa shop delivered and super fast too! None of the other large hardware stores would or were able to cut my own OEM blanks. These guys were a life saver. Like others mentioned, English is not their first language so don't expect to have a heart to heart conversation. They are fantastic at their trade. I used my own blanks but they had a huge selection of other key blanks in shop. I'm sad that once they are gone, no other skilled key makers will be taking their place. Keep these gems in business.
Don't be put off by low star rating. The man doesn't speak really clearly; people get turned off. But he does great work. And it's cheap. He saw me getting my handicap stroller out of the car, came out of the store, said to stay there, and brought me the keys and change. That was really thoughtful. Key makers are shutting down everywhere. Keep this guy in business.

Needed to get a cheap transponder key cut that I purchased from Amazon for my Jeep. Older man and his wife said "hello" and welcomed me into their shop. Not very chatty, but not going to knock someone for not being able to speak English well. He was super quick, did a great job cutting the key, and it only cost $6.32. Hope he is able to stay in business since the folks at HD can't cut "outside" keys and are not knowledgeable locksmiths. I'll be back to Pearl City Key Shop to get a key cut for my wife's car!
I wanted to get duplicate keys made for my car key -- tried Home Depot, Lowe's, and two City Mills and they all couldn't do it (no, it doesn't have a chip in it). Went to Pearl City Key Shop on the recommendation of the key person at the Pearl City City Mill -- success! The duplicates worked without a hitch (I've had issues with some shops on the mainland) -- I noticed that the owner took the time to inspect and refine them -- great workmanship. Yes, as other reviews stated, apparently English isn't the owner's first language -- but he understood what I wanted and delivered.
