Not did he charge me for services that were not required. He explained the problem, discussed the work that was required, preformed the work and charged me just for the labor and did not add on "service call" rate. Very fair, very efficient.
Description of Work: Back door dead bolt lock was hanging from door. The deadbolt no longer aligned with the doorframe and as a result the door was not secure. Locksmith secured the lock, realigning the lock so that the deadbolt secured the connection and the door actually locked. He had to drill into the door to widen the hole for the deadbolt. He did not try to sell me a new lock.

Larry the Locksmith and Hardware were very professional but I didn't get the change to actually hire them. It was all fine. After I spoke to them on the phone and I sent some pictures of the work that I needed done, they responded then someone else in my household hired someone else to do the job. I would have hired them.
Description of Work: I got an estimate from them.

Great experience with Larry the Locksmith. They provided an estimate with various options based on my explanation of the job and some pictures I was able to provide. I found this much more efficient than having to be home for an in-home estimate. They were able to answer my questions which allowed me to make an infirmed decision on the type of locks we wanted to install. They showed up on time and completed the work in a professional, high-quality manner. I would highly recommend them.

I called and Jason who was very helpful . He asked if they could come tomorrow. I made the appointment but asked if anything could be done today as I was leary of keeping the door unlocked all that time. He asked me to wait on the line while he checked. He explained that he could get Jacob to come to my home around lunch time today, which was perfect! Jacob called when he was leaving for my home so that I could leave work and meet him. We arrived at the same time. He was there exactly when he said. He examined the door and the 2 locks and sugested that they both be replaced with stronger locks and after I agreed, he went to work. I was impressed with the proffessionalism of his work. He kept inspecting the locks to make sure that the door jam was working with the locks and that they both worked perfectly. He had me test them from inside and out and explained their placement. He then cleaned up everything. I am truly impressed by their work ethic and how genuinely helpful they were. I would definitely call them again and recommend them very highly. Thank you Larry the Locksmith!

I found this business from Angie's List a while ago and finally got around to calling them a few of weeks ago. Sarah, who spoke with me by phone to set up the appointment was very clear about my choices and the prices, so that was a good start. Jamie did the installation. He also discussed my options with me. He did a great job with the installation. Their work comes with a three month warrantee, in case the lock needs any adjustments. I was very pleased wth the experience overall, and will definitely recommend them to my neighbors.

They were professional and did an excellent job. I will use them from now on. My husband called a different locksmith during the same period and the work - installing deadbolts, similar to what I had Larry the Locksmith do, was no comparison. The other provider made a hole for the deadbolt that wasn't fully covered. Larry's work was head and shoulders above the other provider, right down to the fact they Larry's workers cleaned up after themselves. The locks now work smoothly.
Description of Work: I called Larry the Locksmith on three separate occasions within the span of 5 days. They changed the front and back door locks 2 times each on separate days. The last time they came to secure three rooms within the some home.

They did a great job and this was the second time I’ve used them. They respond quickly and let you know if they can’t send someone immediately but make sure to get someone out as soon as possible.
Description of Work: I couldn’t get my door opened because the lock wouldn’t turn at all. The same young man that came out previously with me came back and was able to fix it for me so it works properly.

Beginning with the young lady who took my first call to the end of the job I was extremely pleased. All my questions about locks and price were answered with patience. The price was exactly as quoted. Jamie called to confirm and arrived as scheduled, He was extremely polite and answered all my questions. He perform the installation in a precise, professional and timely manner. I found no fault in the work done and Jamie was very personable, I felt comfortable allowing him into my home. I will gladly use this company again and recommend them to anyone,

Jamie appeared at my home and was very nice. He looked at the lock and was able to fix it in about 30 minutes or so. He explained to me what was wrong with the lock and also gave me a few "pointers" like adding WD-40 to the lock so the key will turn smoothly and not break in the door. I would definately use them again. They were great.

They were fine, but one of his assistants took fruit from my fruit bowl. I actually asked him and he said he was very hungry, so I gave him some food to eat. However, I thought it was unprofessional although their work was very good.

As mentioned above, we were delighted with the folks from Larry the Locksmith who were efficient, capable, polite and fast. I thought the price was very good too.
Description of Work: We were very pleased with the services provided by the two men sent to our home by Larry the Locksmith and Hardware. Our 90-year old and very heavy front door had shifted shape and was scraping the door frame making it difficult to open and close Additionally the lock was worn and we were unable to enter our home from the outside. Larry's team arrived on the same day we called them. They immediately realized the job required more than simply fixing the lock, but were not discouraged. First they tapered down the bronze rim on the threshold to allow the door to swing more easily. They then corrected the skewered door frame by putting two new washers behind the top hinge. Finally installed new screws in the plastic rim which was loose from years of use. The two men worked efficiently, fast and were perfectly polite. They were finished in under two hours. I would be happy to recommend them again.

I made a call to them and was given a time frame of when they would arrive. They actually called and let me know that they were on their way and they arrived to my home ahead of scheduled time (I liked that). Very knowledgeable and nice. These guys know their stuff. I would use them again and I would recommend them to my friends and family.

I called the locksmith and they came within 20 minutes. Once there he quickly got to work and got the job done quick and well done. He had the right tools despite the fact that the frame inside the lock was broken and was completely locked.
Description of Work: I was locked in my apartment because the lower lock was engaged and i could not unlock it. The lock had to be drilled and a new one installed. The service provider did everything in their power to not cause damage to the door. The technician came quick and was reliable and kind.

My elderly mother in law was having trouble with the lock on her apartment door. My wife went into Larry the Locksmith on the recommendation of a neighbor. The woman at the shop was able to arrange for her husband Jamie and his assistant Wes to come between 4:30 and 5:30 that evening. They people are very nice and professional. Wes and Jamie arrived on time as promised (note the small window, we loved that it was not between 2:00 and 8:00 or some other wide time frame). We explained that because she is elderly she has having difficultly with the lock. Wes and Jamie fixed a broken part and lubricated the lock so that everything was working VERY smoothly and bingo my mother in law could once again easily operate the door and lock. We were very impressed by Jamie and Wes's knowledge and strong desire to make sure that we were completely satisfied. We would definitely use this locksmith again and were extremely pleased with the service overall.

overall it was one of the best experiences i have ever had and the fee was well worth my security and being done well and correct.
Description of Work: i needed to get 3 locks changed and i know that locks nowadays can be quit pricey, so i called on the 7th of Nov. mainly to get an approximate price so i could know how much i needed for my door. i wanted specialty high security locks and the locksmith Jamie explained things to me over the phone very well and patiently and to further the accurate service, he asked me if i could send him pictures of the locks to ensure an accurate rate for service and that worked out great. i originally thought i would do the job at the end of the month, but things worked out and i wound up calling the next day asking if i could have the job done that day. the appointment was around dinner time and two guys showed up handling the job quick, professional, and tested everything to make sure it was all good and secure. they were great. i will definitely hire them again.

While a friend of mine was staying with me during the recovery of Hurricane Sandy, he called in a panic. My key to the apartment had broken, and he was locked out, along with my two Pomeranians. I called Larry the Locksmith. A locksmith was at my apartment within an hour. He was able to repair the lock, saving me the added expense of having to replace the lock. He explained everything, frequently checking to see if I had any questions. He was quick, friendly, thorough, and the job was done well.
