I've been dealing for years with sticky locks on a 1910 house. It seemed to depend on the weather whether they worked or not. When they all failed at once during hot humid weather, I finally had enough: I called A-1 because they were in my neighborhood and got good ratings on Angie's List. I got an appointment for the next morning. Will (the company owner) showed up on time, was polite and friendly, adjusted all my locks within an hour, and had all the needed tools and parts and lubricants in his van. He didn't try to scare me into buying better locks; in fact, he pointed out security features my doors had that I wasn't aware of. And the bill was only only $80-$90. I've forgotten the exact amount, as I'm just enjoying how smoothly and effectively my locks work!
Description of Work: Adjusted four locks on two exterior doors because some were hard to open and some didn't work at all.

Will worked efficiently to identify and fix the problem. Switching the two locks added no cost to the service but reduces the likelihood of another repair trip.
Description of Work: Disassembled door latch; fixed the pin that had fallen out; switched the fixed lock with an identical one that is rarely used, as the fixed lock was likely to have problems in the future (i.e. reduced the likelihood of another repair trip)

Our keys would no longer unlock the lock in the door knob (we had to use another day). We took it into their facility. They fixed it - I don't know the details. I think parts had worn.

Called A-1 to come out on a weekend and he was very knowledgeable. I had two locks to change, but he ended up providing some additional services of putting a cover rather than drilling a new hole, helping swap existing parts to minimize costs, and overall consulting that helped us make the best decision for safety and security of our home. I will definitely call them again!
Description of Work: Great service, friendly and knowledgeable - troubleshooting on the spot was invaluable.

Not much to tell. Brought the desired doorknob, explained why a brass surround also had to be installed. Did it and it looks good. Courteous and quick. Only complaint, totally unrelated to the quality of the work, is that the owner reeked of cigarette smoke and I found that unpleasant.

I called and was given an estimate for the locks and keys. I was asked specific questions about the types of locks that I wanted and the number of keys that I needed. An appointment of the following day was set up. Will Aho arrived on time. He showed me the choices of locks and explained the differences between them. I made my choice and he got right to work installing the new locks The bill matched the estimate to the penny. I am very happy with the locks and the installation and would use them again.
Description of Work: I needed new locks on three doors. I wanted them all keyed the same.

I would recommend them. They were fast and efficient. They were not very intrusive and they really took care of the work themselves. They didn’t need a lot of oversight. Their price was good considering the amount of work that they did.

I called Will and he was very responsive to my request. We discussed what I needed to have done and the price. This is the third locksmith I contacted. First person did not show up and second person tried to get me to have new door knobs installed and tried to charge me more than the quoted price for re-keying of deadbolts. Will's prices were fair and accurately quoted over the phone. He did the job quickly and was very professional and respectful of my new home. I did not need new door knobs and even though I asked him about a double sided dead bolt lock he was honest about the need vs. safety issues - and I ended up not having it installed. I would very highly recommend Will. He is an honest and hardworking person.
Description of Work: Re-keyed 2 door knobs, two deadbolts and made 6 keys for move into home.

They are right in our neighborhood. My husband was happy with the service and he was here when they came. They were prompt and it didn't take that long and they didn't leave a big mess. Another business recommended them. When my husband went there he talked to the former owner who works there and he seemed nice. They came on time and they were very efficient. It was a very good experience and they seemed professional. The price seemed reasonable. We would recommend them.

We lost our keys over the weekend. Explained the situation to A-1 Lock over the phone. They arrived on-site within 15 minutes of our call and completed the re-key in less than an hour. PLUS, they repaired an entry lock on a screen door that had been a sore spot for us. Overall, appreciated Will Aho's work and quick turnaround!

Great! The owner of the company performed the work. He was courteous (called ahead to tell me he was on his way), professional and did the work in under 15 minutes. The price seemed more than fair for the job too. I will definitely call A-1 the next time I need a locksmith!
