We are a family run locksmith business with my husband being the exceptional locksmith and me handling the shop. We are trustworthy and prompt with our appointments. We are the only local locksmith co. that always offers free delivery on all our safes locally and we serve the Pinellas county area but have went to Pasco and Hillsborough for some of our customers too. We do not charge an hourly wage with a service charge like some locksmiths and our service charge is normally incorporated into the work we are doing. Most of our customers are return customers and word of mouth new customers. We are constantly recommended by our former or regular customers. People just love how conscientous the locksmith is with his work. Some have called in to say how nice and friendy and efficient he is. We were formerly on West Bay Dr. for years but they sold the building our business was in so we are approx. one mile east of our former shop before you get to Highland heading east. We are on the north side of the road in a plaza called Royal Plaza. Come on in and see us!
We are proud of our shop and people have, many times, said they had never been in such a clean, well organized locksmith shop! We also have a great record of making keys that actually work! lol Oh yes, we also have a copy machine where you can make single or double sided sheets for 4 cents a copy. It is not color though. But,come on, what can you get for 4 cents these days? Anyway, for the best locksmith and service ever call us here at Suncoast Security, Inc.
Note: We offer free delivery on safe sales locally but mention this ad for free bolt down service too.

Previous owner of home I purchased used this company to installed new locks on doors in 2008. The receipt for the 2008 purchase was left with the home paperwork. I contacted this company at 0830 on 9/14/2011 and requested an appointment to have 5 locks rekeyed for security reasons. They had a same day appointment between 1-3pm so I took it. The owner (man) showed up promptly at 1pm and went to work. He worked approximately 90 minutes and the 5 locks were rekeyed and I was provided 2 keys. The receipt shows $74.95 (trip charge, first lock rekeyed, 2 keys) and $18.00/ea for 4 locks ($72.00). The gentleman providing the service was extremely professional and obviously knew his profession well. I hold not reservation recommending this company or using the in the future. Thank you Suncoast Security!!!

Ed came out on time for a free estimate.I provided a doorknob set which he used and only charged me for the labor. He was very courteous,took the time to answer all my questions,and kept a neat work area.It took him about an hour to complete the job. His motto is "do the job right the first time,"and he sure lives up to that. I would highly recommend his services for any small or large job.
Description of Work: On a side porch door a deadbolt had to be repositioned and a door knob set added.

I was able to set up the entire appointment via email - this is a HUGE plus for me. I sent the same query to a number of Angie's List providers - "Can you repair an old Baldwin lock"? I got two responses. One guy said he would be willing to take a look...ummm.....no. Suncoast said they had experience with Baldwin lcoks, and have a great Baldwin supplier - she was willing to answer several questions and was extremely responsive. I felt like they were worth a shot. Ed had me, honestly, when he got out of his vehicle, and said he couldn't find the house number, but knew he was in the right place when he saw the Baldwin lock on the front door (from the street, while moving!) It was obvious he knew what he was doing - from the beginning, as he worked the mechanism, and started to take it apart, and worked on it, and put it back together! Just - very competent! He also explained to us what he was doing, and what was wrong, and what he did about it. He also said he was willing to travel farther for an Angie's List customer - how great is that? Ed is a "keeper" - I will use him again, and recommend him highly.
Description of Work: Ed repaired an old Baldwin mortise lock. He took the entire lock apart, found the broken piece, and said he would try to find someone to special order the part from, but it would be 6 - 8 weeks to get it. We agreed to this, since we really wanted to save this lock. He continued to look at the lock, and worked on it...and then he made it work! The handle is not in the original location, but Ed was creative enough, and knowledgeable enough, to reset the handle in a different position so it would work. The deadbolt did not operate from the inside, so he did what he needed to do to make that work! Overall, he fixed a lock another locksmith had told us was not repairable - what's not to like about that?

Great experience! Ed is very professional, prompt and provides fair pricing. We enjoyed working with him and would highly recommend Ed!
Description of Work: Ed was great! Our calls were returned promptly and he was on time to provide an estimate and complete the job. We purchased a home that was a foreclosure and vacant for several months. We orignally scheduled to have Ed change the garage door lock and have 11 other lock cylinders re-keyed to the new lock on Monday 1/31. We called Ed after our closing on Friday 1/28 to see if he might be able to move the service date to Saturday 1/29 and Ed was able to change his schedule to accommodate us.He had all of the locks removed and changed within 2 hours. We were concerned because so many people had previous access to the house. Ed was very professional, timely and great to work with. We would highly recommend him!

I have been using Suncoast Security for over 5 years. I found out about them from a knowledgeable and skilled construction specialist who told me that "They are the best in the area" and "Don't bother going anywhere else." He was right. Gail, who manages the office, makes keys and handles customer service is always friendly and professional. I also have had dozens of duplicate keys made there for our home and rental properties. Every key has worked as good as the original. I have had duplicate keys made at building supply mega-stores and hardware stores and have sometimes regretted it. What good is a key that doesn't work? Taking keys back that don't work costs time and money...and it's a headache. Ed, the locksmith is very skilled and reliable. It's obvious that he takes pride in his work. When we need a service call, Suncoast Security has been responsive, prompt and efficient. Suncost Security has hard-to-find and and unusual security devices. When we bought a home that came with some unusual patio door locks and tried finding replacement parts and locks, I searched big building supply stores, hardware stores and window and door stores. No one knew anything about them. Our patio door locks were easy to use and very secure and we wanted to match them. After giving up looking for them, I happened to notice them on display at Suncoast Security. I should have gone there first! Great company. Great people. Great service. Yes, I will use their services again.
Description of Work: Suncoast Secutiy installed parts and repaired hard-to-match upscale entry lock set. Also lubricated and adjusted other locks at no additional charge.

I have checked all my invoices for the month of October and could not find any invoice for the job mentioned in your review. Please feel free to call 585-2859 but please check your invoice and make sure it was our Co. We are very close to another locksmith location. I would like to speak with you or find out what went wrong but, again, I have no record of our ever being there under this name nor did I find that address in any of my work orders. Feel free to give me a call as it is very unusual that people are not pleased with our locksmiths work and we want our customers happy! Thank you, Barbara "Gail" Cline Suncoast Security, Inc.

Talked to Barbara, who was unable to give me an estimate and said he could tell me when he arrived. Since she didn't want me to describe what I wanted in advance (front door lock and dead bolt as well as three interior rooms) the locksmith didn't have enough matching locks when he arrived. I had to decide between two of one kind and a different third lock for the interior locks. I decided to just go with two interior locks rather than have a mismatch or wait until he could go back to his shop and get another one. As a result, he had to recalculate the bill eliminating one lock installlation. This could have been avoided and I would have had what I wanted, if Barbara had only taken my information and passed it on the the locksmith doing the work.
Description of Work: Front door lock was rekeyed and dead bolt installed using the same key. Needed to have three interior door locks using a different key, but only two were installed.

I tried locks from the box stores. They were lousy quality, and I returned them. I found Suncoast on Angies list. They had a good rating, been in business a long time, close to me, so I called to see if they had what I needed. The person on the phone sounded very informed. I went over for the lock. It had much better quality than the others. I had a good experience in the store, and would go to them if I ever needed a locksmith or just locks.
