Editorial Review
Our Take on Kildonan Lock Service Ltd
Kildonan Lock Service Ltd is a long-running walk-in locksmith shop rather than a van-only dispatcher, and its 4.9 rating across 309 reviews is built mostly on key cutting, repairs and counter help. It suits homeowners and businesses that can work within weekday hours. Anyone who needs a weekend or overnight lockout should confirm availability first.

Company Background
About Kildonan Lock Service Ltd
Kildonan Lock Service Ltd has operated from 334 Union Avenue West in Winnipeg's Chalmers neighbourhood for decades, and its website says it has served Manitoba since 1970. This is a real shop with a library of key blanks and product on display, not a dispatch line. Customers describe walking in with problem keys and leaving with them cut on the spot. One reviewer brought in discontinued Cadillac gold keys that nobody else would cut, another got a mailbox key made after two big-box stores had no blank, and a third had a Toyota key cut in about five minutes.
Residential work covers deadbolts and security accessories, rekeying and lock changes, lock repair and replacement, electronic locks and custom installations. Commercial work covers master key systems, restricted key systems, credential, keypad and remote access, security consultations and fire door inspection, and the site says its inspector holds the AFDI designation. A reviewer says the shop installed a camera, speaker and buzz-in system at an office and used sub-contracted electricians who also did a clean job. The product page lists lines such as Schlage, Medeco, Salto, Assa Abloy, Yale, Baldwin, Weiser, Sargent, Corbin, Von Duprin and HID. The site shows an A+ BBB rating, a Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce membership, a CFIB membership, and ALOA and DHI Canada badges. The contact page names Shawn McCormack and Trevor Dawson as management contacts.
Google shows 4.9 from 309 Google reviews, read 2026-10-28. One reviewer praised a technician named Jon as skilled and kind for getting her back into her house in no time. The main limit is hours. The office is open 7:30 am to 5 pm Monday to Friday, closed weekends, and the contact page says after-hours service is for accounts only, even though the page title advertises 24/7 service. The site also carries few written details on pricing or warranty terms.
Kildonan Lock Service Ltd suits homeowners, landlords and businesses in Winnipeg who want a staffed shop for keys, rekeying, hardware and commercial access systems during weekday hours. It suits less well anyone who needs a weekend or overnight emergency lockout and is not an existing account. Before booking, ask for an upfront quote or service-call fee, whether a lockout can be opened without damaging the lock, how the technician will identify themselves and the vehicle they arrive in, what warranty covers parts and labour, and how to confirm the company's registration with the Manitoba business registry.
