My experience was very good. The staff was curtious and experienced. I had to wait a short time while other customers were being helped but that is understandable when a place is busy.

He found something even wrong with the way our lock had been installed before. He didn't charge us for extra work. It wasn't very much. He came right over, he was overall an A+. He just went over and above on everything.

We contacted them through Angie's list on a Sunday night and we got a call by 8 am Monday morning. They arranged to come out the same day and did a great job at a very fair price. I would recommend them to anyone.

Quick, smooth, problem solved.
Description of Work: I called Acme twice. The first time they rekeyed 4 new locks on my new house. No problem with the keys, and the service was quick, prompt and competitive. The 2nd time I called them to rekey my rental house. The key got broken in the door and they were able to save the lock, save me money, and rekey the whole house to the same key even though they were different manufacturers. Acme is great, I heartily recommend them, 24/7.

I made an appointment and drove to their shop. I did not have to wait. They made the key and then they checked it in the doors and in the ignition to make sure the car would start. I was very pleased. If I had gone to a dealership it would have cost me close to $80. to have the same key made. Thank you.
Description of Work: I purchased a deal Acme Locksmith was promoting. I had a key made for my car that had a chip in it for aprox $40.00.

Do to a miscommunication, we were locked out of our house with all of our keys left inside. After other attempts to try to get in, we needed to call a locksmith on a Sunday evening. After many different companies, ACME called us back saying that they had a locksmith that could come in 30 - 40 minutes. We were delighted! Bobby called us about 5 minutes later saying he was only 5-10 minutes away. He came, unlocked the door and we were back in the air conditioned comfort of our home. I think it got longer for him to get the invoice together then to unlock our door. He even called us later to make sure that he reset our locks so our key would work. He did not want us to find that out the hard way it did not work. Thank you!
Description of Work: Our front door was locked and we were unable to get into our home. Bobby was able to open our door quickly and was very efficient.

I spent $50 on a Big Deal from ACME for a programmable auto key. I only have one key for my car (PT Cruiser), and it seems like the battery is fading a bit as sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. When I called to redeem my deal, they said that the deal didn't apply to remote keyless entry car keys. Seems to me they should have been MUCH more specific in their ad if that was the case. What is a programmable key if it doesn't do remote entry? I asked them if they could at least replace the battery in my existing key. He said he would get back to me on that and never did. There was no attempt to give me equivalent services (rekeying my house locks? Making another set of keys for me for my house? Something?) for the money I'd spent on the Big Deal.
Description of Work: I bought a Big Deal for a programmable car key that they refused to honor.

Response from ACME Locksmith
I'm sorry for your experience. Keys with remote heads were not available using the big deal as they can cost several hundred dollars (depending on vehicle). This exclusion was indicated on the offer. Since Big Deal offers are sold by Angie's List, we do not have the ability to refund them because we did not process the transaction. However, if you contact Angie's list, they should be able to provide a refund. Regards, Robert -- Owner, ACME Locksmith

It was the first time I had used them. It went well. They repaired a lock on our back door and did a security audit for the other doors.

Very happy with the service and selection. ACME made keys that none of the chain hardware stores could. I couldn't test all the keys until I got back to the RV I had them made for but they all worked like the originals. The gentlemen who assisted me was very helpful and also gave good info about floor safes which is something I've been interested in finding.
Description of Work: Copied hard to find keys.

A lot of people say, "Why hire a locksmith? Save the money and do the work yourself!" but in this place, the previous owners had left a little creative work behind, so i liked having it straightened out. Figured I'd spend twice the time and still screw things up even more. Big Mike did well. Only complaints I'd have was that he left a little mess behind and dropped tools a couple times on a nice wood floor, but overall, great service. I had been since early when he arrived, and I forgot to give him the coupon I'd printed from Angie's List. When I called the office, they redeemed me the 10 bucks for the coupon as long as I sent them a copy. That was kind of a pain in the rear, but it did motivate me to hook up my computer and scanner.
Description of Work: Big Mike showed up and installed a few locks at my new home. I'd bought them separately. He also did a little work cleaning up the areas where the locks went and removing a deadbolt whose screws had been stripped.

Acme was amazing. I called late afternoon and Mike showed up around 5:00 p.m. We had already purchased a deadbolt lock and had it rekeyed. Mike showed us a default in the lock and repaired it. He then installed the deadbolt into our security door in less than a minute. He was amazing! He even checked our other security doors and lubricated them since he was here on a service call. If I ever need a locksmith, ACME is the place I am calling; FAST, FRIENDLY and PROFESSIONAL SERVICE!! They even give you a coupon on Angie's list!!

As explained above, he fixed the doors so they lock. Glad I didn't ned more repairs.
Description of Work: I needed a locksmith because my front door wouldn't lock. I thought I needed a new lock. Big Mike came and fixed what I needed,. The strikers needed adjustment. He adjusted both doors. I didn't need a new lockset but didn't like the old one and hada new one to replace the old. He called and said he was early, was that okay? Of course. Fixed perfectly!

Matt came to change the lock on our newly-acquired condo. He had given a standard price over the phone; however, the lock type was more complicated than he expected - he gave a good explanation why. In order to put in a new lock, he had to modify a lock he had so it would work smoothly. He was fast and efficient. We now feel much more secure and appreciate Matt's professionalism.

The locksmith who arrived at my house not only listened to what I had to tell him, but always let me know what he was doing - what he thought the problem was, how he was going to try to deal with it, etc. In the process, he made extra copies of my key - so that if it broke it the lock, it wouldn't be mine that was lost. After getting me into the house, he examined the locks, and showed me the damage that caused them to catch (I feel much smarter about how locks work, now). He had replacements installed (after explaining why the same problem wouldn't occur with them) and repeatedly tested quickly and efficiently. Because of his good work, I don't expect to need the services of a locksmith again anytime soon - but if I did, I would definately call Acme again.
Description of Work: I was locked out of my house, because the locks were malfunctioning rather than because I didn't have a key. The office rep for Acme listened carefully to the problem, and gave me a clear time estimate for help to arrive. She called again to let me know someone was on the way. He arrived promptly, was very friendly and professional, listened carefully to my explanation of the problem, and then - fixed everything.

The main office and tech were courteous and professional. The tech arrived on time and performed a quality installation which now prevents anyone from lifting the door off its tracks. I work at home and was unavailable to give him a $10 of $100 coupon before my wife paid him and he left. However, The receptionist at the main office cheerfully refunded $10 to our card the day after the original transaction posted. Great service all around.
