As a real estate broker, Accredited Locksmith has assisted us on several homes. Scott has gone above and beyond to ensure the work hes done correctly, promptly, and we've never had a subsequent lock problem. Highly recommend!

We found Accredited Locksmith on Angie's List and called him on a Saturday afternoon. Scott came out that same day and re-keyed the locks on a home we had just moved in to. We also had one deadbolt that wasn't aligned properly and he fixed that too, at no additional charge. He was great and worked well past 5 pm on a Saturday to get us set up for the first day in our new home. We will definitely use him again for any services needed in the future.

He was supposed to be here at 10, but he did not show up until 10:45. He began re-keying the front door, his hands were filthy and got grease all over the door. He was also to re-key the patio door. He indicated the work was done, but the locks did not work. He left to purchase a new cylinder. While he was gone I noticed he had left grease stains on the carpet. He sprayed the carpet with 409 to remove grease stains and made the issue even worse. The carpet is only two weeks old. The front door lock is still not fixed. What was supposed to take only 15 minutes ended up taking almost four hours.

After setting an initial appointment for noon, Scott called a couple times to alert me that he was delayed and arrived a little after 1PM (better than most but not quite deserving of an "A" for punctuality). While he was here, he performed the work quickly and ensured I was satisfied with the work after he was finished.
Description of Work: I had to force the key into the backdoor lock so I called Accredited Locksmith Service. Scott came (same day service) and fixed the problem.

The door handle barrel was worn so needed help getting door open and fixing the latch. Scott was very professional. He called to let me know that he would arrive a few minutes late. Said that many locksmiths would not even attempt to fix the type of lock I had but he enjoyed the challenge. He fixed it and his price was much less than I anticipated. Would highly recommend him.

Everything went well and we had a great experience. Our locks were a mess -- some were broken and we had a variety of different keys and locks. Scott helped us sort things out and recommended a sensible solution that was cost effective. No more mystery keys and locks work properly!

The job took 4 days. The locksmith was late the first day and then left early. The next day he had to go back to his shop to continue finishing work. He left screws, new and used locks and a box cutter strewn on the floor and when I called to tell him he stated "you would be surprised, 9 of 10 people never call me to let me know that I've left things at their house". He was going to stop and pick the locks up, but to this date they are still sitting outside waiting for him.
Description of Work: Called to change locks on a newly purchased house. Selected because of all A's on Angie List. Now thinking about canceling our subscription to Angie's list because I never want to have a 'surprise' like this again.

Super fast, easy-breezy. I haven't been able to get keys made for my storm door at any hardware store - something about the darn little key that the store key-making equipment can't handle. I couldn't find any specialty locksmith "store" locations, like I recall from not so long ago, so I found Accredited Locksmith on Angie's List and called. Scott answered right away, and when I explained what I needed -- and that it was not an emergency--just something that I needed to get done--he did say that most locksmiths are mobile now. He wasn't busy and was pretty close by, so came right over, and before I had much time to think about it, BOOM, he had four copies made and tested for me. And price? Well, it wasn't free of course, but I didn't give away the exact price in the review field because it was SO CRAZY REASONABLE I decided not give away his "wiggle room." Suffice it say he waived the usual mobile call fee - I think because it was a quick job, I didn't really have a "same day" need and was quite close by. Scott will be on my growing, go-to list of great Crofton businesses that provide superb, friendly service. Guess who I'll know to call the next time I lock myself out of my car!

He saved us some money by advising us not to change locks but to rekey them. Because our closing got delayed, we had to reschedule. However, he was fine with it. We'll definitely use him again

This was a sliding glass door with a keyed handle. The lock had a manufacturers defect which caused the job to take much longer than normal and it was well below freezing that night. He had to pretty much rebuild the lock. I was very happy with the job and the price.

Scott replaced my locks last time and he did a great job. I called him again to replace two more doors (knobs and dead bolt) and he came that day (it was a Sunday). I'm actually standing outside because his car battery drained due to the machine he's using via his car. I told him as long as we have one key, I don't mind heading to Home Depot to get copies but he insisted to stay and complete his job. It's freezing and it's dark outside, mind you. He's doing an excellent job, despite all the commotion and I highly recommend his services. Definitely a hard worker! The picture below is evidence of him working in his car at night to get the job done, on a Super Bowl Sunday!

We needed to replace our front door lock assembly. Scott was great from the word Hello. He was easy to deal with, quick, efficient, honest and he worked very hard to make everything work just right. He even took the unit I bought back to the store to exchange for one that had all the right parts. This was After he installed the first one- no complaints from him at all! Impressive.! Where most people would have done the bare minimum to install, Scott went the extra mile or two or three, to make sure we had a safe, working lock and front door assembly. I cannot recommend anyone higher than this! He is simply "Good People." I thank Scott for all his hard and outstanding work, and Angie's List for having proved this is the place to find top quality providers. Scott you are the best. Thank you again, so very much. If you need a locksmith, call Scott. No one else period.

I called to have four locks on the house rekeyed. He came out the same day on very short notice. He arrived a bit later than our scheduled time, but not excessively so. He worked quickly and was very professional. He rekeyed the first three locks very quickly, but had problems with the fourth lock. He ran across town to pick up a new one and only charged me manufacturer price with no markup. His pricing was the best I found in the area and I would definitely use him again.

Scott arrived on time and was very pleasant to work with. He took a look at the work that needed to be performed, and offered a couple different options. One included purchasing a new door knob so all locks could be on the same key. I chose this option and Scott ran out and purchased the lock, and continued with the rekeying. Scott worked by himself this day, and his services were priced very competitively. I would be glad to have Scott do work for my family again.

My husband called Accredited Locksmith Service on Friday afternoon and an appointment was given for the following day. Prior to arriving at our newly purchased home, Scott texted us letting us know he was on his way. Scott arrived on time and quickly started to work. He suggested that we get new locks for our front door and the door leading from the garage into the home. He also changed the lock for our storm door and provided us with ample extra sets of kets. Scott was very nice and cleaned up everything once he was done.

I called Accredited Locksmith Service after finding them on Angie's List. The fact that they provided a 10% Angie's List discount coupon also played a part in the selection. There was no emergency so we made an appointment for the following morning at 10:00. He arrived somewhat late but explained that his truck had broken down and he had to go back to get his car. No problem, things like that happen. After introductions, I showed Scott the lockset we had purchased but had hesitated to install ourselves. He said we had made a wise choice and got right to work. He worked diligently and before long had the old lock removed and the new lock installed. He was a little concerned because the old hole in the door was not quite centered with the hole above it. He said it appeared that the old keyed lock had been installed first and the dead bolt had been installed at a later date and the two holes were not quite lined up vertically. When he had finished the installation he showed me where it was not quite lined up. He did such a good job in lining the two pieces up that I wouldn't have noticed it without his calling it to my attention. He did a great job, the new lockset is beautiful, and the door looks so much better with the new lock. He also made four extra keys for the lock. I also asked Scott if he could look at my cedar chest which somehow seemed to have locked itself. I hadn't locked it in years and didn't even know where the key was. He tried for a long time to get it open without damaging the lock, but was unable to get it unlocked. I asked him if he could just force the lock open and fix it so it wouldn't lock again. He was finally able to force it open without any damage to the cedar chest at all, and I was very satisfied at the outcome. We were very pleased with Scott's work. He is a very personable individual and very friendly. He does excellent work and we will continue to use Accredited Locksmith Service for all our locksmith needs in the future.
Description of Work: Installed a front door lockset that we had previously purchased from a home improvement store. Worked on unlocking a cedar chest that had mysteriously locked itself and I couldn't find the key. Made extra keys for the new lockset.
