After my wife had her purse stolen last night (with keys), called Lang at 7:30 am. Mr. Lang arrived about 8:15, completed everything by 10:30, including a trip back to his shop to pick up a couple needed items. No mess, no fuss, efficiently went about his business. Cost seemed very reasonable for instant service and the scope of the project.

Thanks for the review. I normally carry needed items on my vehicle. However, this customer needed a special item. If I were to carry every item, I would need to drive two semi trucks to every job. Sometimes it is necessary to return with the needed items.

Thanks for the review. Keep an eye on the dead latch (the smaller latch by the bigger latch that goes into the door frame when the door closes). If this smaller latch breaks off or comes loose, the latch needs replaced. If not, the latch will eventually break and if it does with the door closed, the door will not open. The latch will need removed by forcing it out and opening the door.

It was very easy to get the appointment set up, and I was able to get things arranged within 24 hours. Lang's came out on time and was very prompt, courteous and got the job done in record time. My only quibble was that his key copy machine was a bit out of whack and the copied keys stick a little bit in the locks so I had to go to Home Depot and get copies cut from his original set.

Thanks for the review. I try to provide original keys and not cut them on the mobile machine in my van. Sometimes the key machines gets out of spec when going over railroad tracks and I need to adjust in with each key. Please let me know how many keys you need and I will make them at the van when rekeying the locks to assure they work.

Thanks for the review. They had much more than was discussed on the phone. Because of being an Angie's List member, I honored the original quote event though the scope of work increased. Many would charge the extra for the extra work, but I have been in business almost 40 years by working with the customer.

Thanks for the review. All reviews help other Angie's List members and that is what Angie's List provide, customer feedback. This was a deal $155 for four doors. There were only three doors, so I added some additional services. I hope Snap Fix works well. Should be a great addition to Angie's List. The system will pick the provider for you. It is being tested in the Cincinnati market, as well as others.

Thanks [Member name removed] for my 50th review. It really helps when you give a review. Others can read what their neighbors say about the business and now, with Angie's List new marketing, it helps with referrals. My number one job is to keep Angie's List members happy, since it is becoming a major source of customers. Ten years ago, people went to the yellow pages to find a locksmith. Now people use the Internet.

Jim was very good and very willing to work with our schedule. He was there within 15 minutes of the scheduled time and gave good advice on what the best choice was for us, and also gave good sound advice on the strength of the current locking mechanisms. I gave him every opportunity to try to "upsell" me to more expensive locks, but he advised that what we had was very good and the investment to the next level would not be worth it. He gave very sound advice. He needed to order the part to better secure our French doors, and he didn't mess around trying to charge me with the re-keying after the first trip and then the security for the second trip. He waited until after the job was done. I'd use Jim and Lang's Locks again.
Description of Work: We moved into a new house and wanted to re-key both the outdoor locks and one indoor lock. We also wanted to add a better security locking mechanism to the French doors that led to the patio. Jim re-keyed all four locks and ordered the correct parts to add the security mechanism.

The lock on our storm door broke and we were unable to open the door. Jim Lang came just a couple of hours after I called and was able to get the door open. He removed the broken lock mechanism, suggested that I go online and get another one and then showed me how to install it. He was here only a short time and did not even charge us! If you need a locksmith, look no further than Lang's! He is very cordial and professional. You cannot go wrong.

Thanks for the review. Having the same key work all the locks is very convenient and logical. The only time you might key locks differently is when it leads into an area that is only accessible through certain doors. That would require a different key to gain access to that area. We can even have one key work all areas and separate keys for certain areas. This is called Master Keying.

I contacted Mr. Lang requesting his services for a home we recently moved into. He replied quickly and set up an appointment for the next day. He called ahead of time and showed up promptly as scheduled. He installed a new front door handle set and made extra copies of keys for us. He also solved an additional problem. We had a small portable safe that was locked with the keys stuck inside the safe. He quickly opened the lock to the safe. He also provided advice on better securing another entry to our house. His work was professional and he is prompt and very helpful. I am very happy with the service received and I would not hesitate to contact him again!

Thanks for the review. I normally do not do safe work, but will always take a look. I can do safe work, but to do it properly would cost over $40,000 to obtain all the equipment and manuals. It would then be over $15,000 per year to keep the information current. Being a one-man shop, this expense would not be recoverable unless I did this full time. There are more than enough "safe men" in the area, I would find it very difficult to get enough work. I normally refer customers to other reputable locksmiths.

Response from Lang's Locks
Thanks for the review. This customer took advantage of the $45 service call deal. Normally an extra labor charge would be associated with this deal, but the customer provided the replacement lock parts and it was uneventful, so I did not include the labor charge. The door was a sliding patio door with a hook lock that is known to break. Sliding glass doors are not the most secure and I have gained access to many properties through the sliding glass doors. The one lock I suggest for these doors is a sliding glass door pin, which is installed through the moving door and into the permanent door.

We successfully rekeyed all of the locks in our new house ourselves, with one exception--We couldn't get the cyclinder out of our Baldwin Mortise lock to rekey it. We therefore called Jim, and he came over within an hour...on a Sunday! Jim was fantastic--friendly, kind, and despite several challenges (the cyclinder needed to be drilled out and new parts ordered from Baldwin), he was able to fix & rekey it. Considering the amount of effort and number of trips required, his price was quite reasonable. Jim was fantastic to work with, and I would recommend him to anyone!

I want to thank you for your review. This was a lock from the horned guy with a pitch fork himself. I appreciate the challenge, but refuse to charge Angie's List customers the true cost of dealing with a difficult situation. From dealing with another distributor to get THEIR materials for THEIR lock, to the threads on the mortise cylinder seating of the lock case stripping (and me letting another locksmith borrow my tool and die set), this job should have been over $850 if I charges for all my time. I like a challenge, but not a nightmare. Like grandpa once said, "Just hold your tongue, smile, and pray."

Jim arrived early. He was familiar with the area and had no problem finding my rental property. He spent about 25 to 30 minutes trying to unlock the double doored garage. He was unable to open the doors that day, but said he would get a new set of keys for each of the doors from Overhead Door Co and mail them to me. As it turned out, the keys for only one of the doors was available. He offered to come out to rekey the other door at another time. I declined as I didn't want to spend more money on this problem.

I did open the doors that day and gave her the choice at that time to replace the locks on the doors. The Overhead Door Company has a private keyway for their doors, for which only they can provide keys. I spent extra time going to their store (which I did not charge). In hind sight, I will change the locks out from now on - much less time and energy spent. I should have charged $280 for this job, but gave her 65% off that price.
