I paid for the service, and paid the service provider directly as well. They never gave me the key that I needed.
Description of Work: I had a patio door that needed a key.

A year after he did this work, I got a suspicious email from his email account, which turned out to have been hacked. I called him up to ask about it, and he was still nice, courteous and professional in his response. Sorry he got hacked, but he's a good locksmith.
Description of Work: John Wilson came to our house to replace locks on the front door and 2 side doors after we moved in. He also fixed 2 sliding glass doors. He was professional and I'd recommend him again.

It went good! I had a lot of work done. I had all the locksets changed and everything rekeyed. So there were additional charges beyond the big deal amount. I think he could have been a little bit more upfront on the total cost it was going to be.
Description of Work: I purchased a big deal for Locksmith Central. They rekeyed about 6 new locksets so they're all matching keys.

I called at 9:30am and left a message. I called him back at 10:30am and asked if he got my message and he obviously he didn't. I told him I needed a locksmith and he said that I needed to email him with my information. I emailed him and the email bounced back and so I called him and he advised me to email his alarm company. The email to his alarm company didn't bounce back and I never received a call back. I then called him again and he agreed to take the information over the phone finally.. my phone number and the city that I live in. He told me that he would call the guy and give me a call back and he never called me back. I started this at 9:30am and I have still not spoken to anyone to schedule to have the work done and it is 1:15pm.
Description of Work: I called him to get the lock replaced at my house.

I called and make an appointment for the next day. Michael arrived promptly at the appointed time and within an hour had replaced the old locks. The service is a bit pricey but to me the speed and professionalism were worth it.
Description of Work: We had ancient locks on our back door leading out to the garden that finally went kaput. The door couldn't even be opened, because the locks had jammed. I had a gardener coming to clean up the garden and needed to get the lock in working order so the gardener could have access to the back.

Very solid experience. They came to the house with all the tools needed, including some options in each category. In about 2 hours, all the locks on the house were changed, along with extra keys.
Description of Work: They came out to our house to change all the locks after we purchased the new home. They are a little pricey, but didn't try to up-sell us on things we didn't need. I would use them again for sure, however they are pretty pricey. But, when it comes to your safety, I'm not sure that's as big of a drawback compared to working with a company that you weren't sure you could trust just to get a bargain (and we felt like we could trust this company).

Our deadbolt failed and we were locked in on a Sunday afternoon. I called Mike at Locksmith Central and he immediately picked up the phone. This was after 3 phone calls to other locksmiths on Angies List where I only got a voice mail. He said to give him 30 minutes, and he arrived well within that timeframe. He had to drill through the deadbolt to open the door. He described the problem with the lock and explained why it failed. We also asked him to install a new deadbolt right there. All in all he provided a very straightforward and timely service for something that was quite anxiety-provoking. I would recommend him.
Description of Work: Lock-out service on a weekend and replacing a failed deadbolt on the door to our condo.
