When we moved into our house 4 months ago, he re-keyed 5 locks at a very reasonable price. We have several somewhat unusual, "high-end" locks and he was very knowledgeable about all of them. He was on time, clean, and worked quickly. Four months later, the lock on the door to our garage suddenly broke so that we couldn't open the door from either side (this wasn't a door that he had worked on before). We called him that afternoon, but he couldn't come until the next day. When the agreed upon time passed, my wife called him and he profusely apologized that he had misplaced our message, and he came immediately and fixed it. Because he was late, he refused to charge us anything even though he had driven 15 miles one way to our house. Very professional.
Description of Work: Re-keyed 5 locks and later on fixed a broken door lock.

I was really pleased with his responsiveness, honesty and quality of work. We plan on using Jim's Locksmith in the future.
Description of Work: The deadbolt on my front door jammed a month ago. I found Jim's Locksmith on Angie's List and called to set up an appointment. Jim was very responsive, and I was able to make an appointment immediately. Jim fixed the deadbolt and replaced the plate on the door frame, which did not properly fit the lock. It was left over from the old locks that my husband and I had replaced by a different locksmith when we bought our house. Jim reinforced the plate with longer screws and did the same for our back door while he was there. He was finished almost as soon as he started.

It was great! I had to reschedule the time of day for the estimate and they were very flexible in coming at the new time. The technician was very knowledgeable and gave me good advice about how to re-key and gave good tips about home security. He came out at the appointed time and did a good job. He even made me more spare keys than I asked for! I would definitely recommend this company and will use them again.
Description of Work: I recently moved into a new house and hired Jim's Locksmith to re-key the locks and install one deadbolt lock.

A couple of years ago Jim's Locksmith installed several door locks in our house, including a handle and lock on the front door. They did a good job at a reasonable price in our opinion. Recently, the front door lock began to have problems. We called up and left a message. Soon after on that day we got a call back. They scheduled an appointment for the next day, called to confirm about a 1/2 hour ahead of time, showed up and fixed the front door lock. We asked the price and the answer was there was no charge. They stood behind their work. Also, Mark was a very pleasant guy with whom to work. We highly recommend them.

We selected this company based on its Angies List ratings. We obtained an estimate over the phone based on a service call and the number of locks to be rekeyed. The technicial showed up on time, worked steadily and finished in 45 minutes. I'd use this company again.

We called on Monday, got an estimate, and made an appointment for Wednesday. Mark showed up right on time and was pleasant, polite and professional. He was done in 30 minutes, even though one of our locks needed a little extra attention. And, he was kind to our overly-curious dogs.

I really liked the gentleman that came out however after he finished with all of the locks and I'm signing my bill he tells me my locks won't last long. Sure enough right after he left one of them broke. He came back out on a Sunday and charged me $25 for fixing the lock even though it would have to be replaced. I wish when he first looked at my locks before re-keying he would have notified me of the condition of my locks so that I could have bought new ones. I ended up just buying all new locks at a home improvement store and installing and re-keying myself - was cheaper in the long run.

It was an emergency situation, and he agreed to come approximately a half hour after I called the office. He showed up as promised, very punctually. Within an hour's time he had the locks pulled, had gone back to the shop to re-key them, had come back and reinstalled them. I was extremely impressed. His attitude and his professionalism were outstanding. I would definitely used him again, ideally under better circumstances.
Description of Work: Changed locks on 3 doors (one had a handle lock and a deadbolt, so 4 locks total).

I called Jim's Locksmith on Friday and asked if they could come to my house on Monday. They worked me into their schedule and came to my house first thing Monday morning. Mark was actually a few minutes early! Very courteous and professional.
Description of Work: 5 exterior doors were re-keyed. Three of the doors had been replaced over a period of 2 years and the locks were different. Jim's Locksmiths re-keyed all of the new doors to one key and the old doors (secondary entrances) to another key. Now, I have 2 keys instead of 4 to keep up with.

He came promptly, cleaned up, and did a perfect job on our very old door. Our house was built in the teens and the original doorknob that was malfunctioning would leave an enormous hole in the door due to the large box-type thing inside that was part of the mechanism. He installed something I'd never heard of called a wrap-around that completely covered the large hole and lever-style handles on both sides of the bedroom door.

Locksmith technician was 20 minutes early. He repaired all the installation errors/damage that the door supplier had created when installing Baldwin lock-sets on new exterior doors. My exterior door handle no longer slides side to side. The technician also made good recommendations regarding whether we needed a double or single cylinder lock on the back door. He saved us $48! We will definitely use Jim's Locksmith again if necessary. It was a positive experience.
