Jim came to my house at exactly the time he said he would. I called him at 2:00 on Saturday and he was there 1 hour later. He suggested replacing the 2 deadbolts that did not match the regular door locks in 2 of my doors so that we only need 1 key for the entire house. He went to get the new deadbolts himself, which was a relief to know that he would get the right materials. He worked quickly and had everything finished in a reasonable amount of time. His price was fantastic. I highly recommend his services.
Description of Work: Jim rekeyed the locks in 4 doors and replaced the deadbolts in 2 of those doors so that one key will work for every lock that we have.

Jim arrived on time, studied the problem, took the complete locking mechanism out of the door, took the inner mechanism apart, found a couple of small pieces out of place, cleaned and lubricated the sliding parts, and re-installed the unit. IT WORKS LIKE A NEW UNIT!
Description of Work: Our front door dead bolt lock was very difficult to re-lock. The lock unit is a Baldwin and is 22 years old with no previous service on it.

This was a mortise lock, versus and cylindrical lock found on most residential doors. The mortise locks are build much better with many more functions, but have many more parts that can wear or break. It is always a good idea to do preventive maintenance on the mortise locks every 8 to 10 years, depending on the use. All locks should be lubricated every six months. I suggest when you hear fireworks on the 4th of July and New Years Eve.

Lang's Locks is wonderful! Jim came over to our new house yesterday to rekey the locks only. I got to looking at all the door handles and they were in terrible shape. He went out on the spot and got me all new door handle and lock sets at a great price! He stayed several hours until the job was done. He worked very hard and made sure we were happy when he left. I also told him what color and style I liked and the ones he got are fantastic! I would recommend him to everyone I know that needs a Locksmith.

Because [member name removed] was an Angie's List member, this job was discounted substantially. It would have been a $860 job, since I had the old locks rekeyed when the decision was made to replace the hardware. Sometimes I an too nice to Angie's List members, but you are worth it!

Sometimes we can fix existing hardward, sometimes we need to replace hardware. It may be less expensive to replace the hardware versus fixing the old hardware. I provide options before beginning the work.

My appointment was scheduled at 4 p.m., and Jim called ahead and asked if he could come early. (an hour early). He removed the old doorknob, and put the new one on within twenty minutes. I was able to keep my dog outside without him going crazy - that's a first for the dog. When presented with the bill, I was surprised at how reasonable the cost was - the verbal quote was no more than $150.00. When I wrote the check out, I first asked if Jim wanted me to make the check payable to him rather than the company. I was rather surprised - pleasantly surprised that is - that he insisted that the check be made out to the name of the company so (as he explained) "to keep my accountant happy". As a graduate student of accounting and former construction office manager, I smiled. Why? This shows me that Jim is very honest. Many of the contractors I have dealt with the past asked for checks to be made out to "Cash" or them personally.

Thanks for the response. I have always had checks written to my company and have always given invoices. Sometimes people do not want invoices, but I complete one anyway and throw the customer copy away. I gave a higher quote because I thought more was going to be involved after talking on the phone. I will never increase a phone quote unless I talk to the customer first.

I phoned Jim Lang for an estimate, because of the excellent reviews on Angie's List. I explained the services needed, and he gave me an estimate right over the phone. He even explained that I could purchase my own deadbolt and he would install it, to save us a little money. We ended up just having him install his deadbolt. Also, he offered to come out on Saturday, with no extra charges. He showed up right on time, and quietly went to work. Everything took about an hour, I would say. And, the final price was exactly as he quoted. I would definitely hire him again, and would recommend to others.

Thanks for the review. I carry standard knobs and deadbolts on my vehicle and have to charge for this hardware about double since you can get it for the same price at the box stores. I suggest people get the hardware themselves. This way they can look at the material and get what they want. Just remember that to have one key work, you must buy the hardware with the same keyway (get help at the store by taking in your current key).

During the changing seasons, settling may occur and the door frame come out of square. The proper way to repair this is to replace the door. However, there are band aids you can use so the door shuts properly. Adjust strike, put in hinge shims, or just tighten the hinges sometimes works. If a door is sticking, a good trick is to rub a candle against the door, leaving wax behind which will help the door shut.

Mr. Lang was prompt. efficient, and competent. He explained what he intended to do to solve our problem and then completed his work. He was very much a gentleman, and I would call on him again for lock repair or replacement services. The new locks he installed are fine. He also stands behind his work. I wish all service providers would be as professional as he is.

Thanks for the review. When I spoke to a friend recently, he said he had a locksmith come out and do something he could have done. I told him the story of the guy that took the car to a mechanic that listened to the engine, picked up a hammer, hit the engine, then the car ran perfect. The guy asked the mechanic how much, to which the mechanic said, "$5 to hit the engine with the hammer, $95 to know where to hit the engine." After hearing the situation on the phone, I sometimes give up the "$95" and give the customer the option, even though it sometimes costs me $25 to make the phone ring. That is the cost of doing business the right way.

THANKS FOR THE REVIEW - I THINK? This review does not make sense. I guess you can please some of the people most of the time . . . I try to give an opinion with my 35 plus years of experience when I come to your home or business on security. To get all "B" and a "No" to hire again does not help my rating. Even though comments were positive and "Yes" to recommend to others. Maybe it is the fact it took nine months to submit the review?

Called in the morning, the work was completed the same evening. He was delayed due to a previous job and he called several times to alert us of his status and inquired if we still wanted him to come out or reschedule for the morning. Very professional and responsive to our needs. Our locks were changed, new keys made in very short time... Would definitely recommend this company.

Normally we respond with same-day service, but sometimes need to schedule for the next day. As a rule, it takes about 10 minutes per lock to remove the lock, rekey the cylinder, and reinstall the lock. So, if you have six locks, it normally takes one hour.

Thanks for the feedback. An engineering issue with some locks will cause the latch (what comes out of the door into the door frame) will not retract, thus the door cannot be opened. When this happens, the latch usually needs to be physically and forcefully removed, which takes time and effort. The latch then needs replaced. Things to watch for BEFORE the latch completely breaks are #1-The latch becomes more difficult to retract; #2-The deadlatch (smaller latch beside the bigger latch) comes out or disappears; #3-Knob becomes more difficult to turn. If any of these occurs, replace the latch as soon as possible to prevent the expense of physically and forcefully removing the latch.

I called last minute on a holiday with a door that would not lock and he came right away. The problem was not the lock but rather the door needed several adjustments and the stike plates needed moved. He took care of the problem and was careful not to make a mess. He cleaned up after himself. He was fast, courteous, professional, kind did a great job. The lock and door are functioning like new. I would highly recommend him for any work.

Thanks for the feedback. With record rainfall this past year, many structures are settling causing doors misalignment. A quick way to tell is the amount of gap on the top of the door compared to the door frame. While looking at the closed door, you will notice a larger gap on the latch side versus the hinge side. A quick fix for this is adjustment to the strike plates or inserting hinge shims. Again, these are only bandaids - the permanent fix is door and frame replacement. However, most people want the $100 bandaid versus the $1,000 plus permanent fix.
