Locksmith was great. Very professional and he did a great job. He had a "deal coupon" which I used and his prices were reasonable. I would definitely use this gentleman again.

Absolute Security provides the services that you would expect from a company by this name. They are consultants as well as skilled locksmiths. The work was done precisely; my door closes like that of a solid steel safe, which feels great! I'm definitely bringing them back for more work.
Description of Work: Absolute installed a new doorknob and deadbolt, and re-keyed both locks.

Had some trouble with getting a call-back to schedule an appointment, may have been Angie's List problem for providing my contact info incorrectly. Took a little longer than I thought it would, but he did a very good job. I thought a Big Deal (which I purchased) was all inclusive but I had to pay extra to have a key made.

It was fine. Basically they calle to say they would come early. They switched two dead bolts and rekeyed them and redrilled a hole in the door because it was not straight and so the key did not operate smoothly and know it does.

Called Absolute Security and asked to have our main doors rekeyed when we moved into our house. I think I called on a Thursday and the guy said he could be out by Sat morning. He even left his daughter at the DMV to come complete our job. He worked very quickly and efficiently and was very friendly. Gave us a discount for being Angie's List members and for paying cash! We feel very secure in our new house!

The locksmith called ahead of time to discuss the problem and the possible solutions. He was polite and courteous and did not rush me through my explanation of the problem. We set a date and time and he arrived on time. He brought all of the tools he might need, as well as a new lock set. He went right to work and was finished in less than an hour. The new door lock and deadbolt worked on the same key immediately and have been fine ever since.
Description of Work: Tried to rekey a lock and dead bolt without the special tool provided with the lock because I had lost it. That didn't work so he replaced the lock and dead bolt with new ones.

It was fine. They changed some locks for me. They came out around the beginning of October and I didn't spend anything other than the cost of the deal. Their work was fine.

We purchased a big deal for the service, and it was a good experience. I paid more than I had purchased the big deal for. The total ended up being close to 350 Dollars. They scheduled the appointment on time, and quickly and it was overall a good experience.
Description of Work: We use Absolute Security Locksmiths. They standardized a bunch of locks, and replaced dead bolts that weren't working in a 3 unit building, so it was a lot of locks changed.

Very responsive on the phone. I called him before my closing and he even reminded me to make sure the seller provided all the keys to all of the existing house locks. I closed on my house and he stopped by hours after the closing right on time. He did the work very quickly and was very friendly. No surprises and no issues with using the Angie's List coupon I had purchased. I would definitely use him again.
Description of Work: Rekeyed three locks and a deadbolt on three different doors and made four total keys.

Replaced broken door lock. This was on an original door to house that is 175 years old, we didn't want new holes or the door disturbed in any way. It took a little elbow grease but new lock installed without switching key hole, so we could use the same key. Great

This weekend, our front door deadbolt lock broke in the closed position. When I called first thing on Monday, I was promised service with 1/2 hour to 45 min. Chet arrived in 25 min.,removed the old lock, assembled and re-keyed the new lock to our existing key. The whole thing took only 1/2 hour. I will definitely recommend Absolute Security to anyone who needs locksmith services.

Everything with them was great and they were super prompt. They got back to us like in a day and the work only took like 15 minutes and so it was great. Everything about the locksmith experience was as good as can be expected or better. I would use them again if I have locksmith problems.

Still not sure how it happened since I thought I unlocked the front door, LOL, but I locked myself out of my house when I went outside to my yard. Luckily, my neighbors helped me find Absolute on their computer, as I didn't even have my phone with me. Absolute was the only company that I called which would help with a lockout. They were at the house within the hour, and were a pleasant company to work with.
