Smooth and easy. Greg showed up and went right to work. He was able to do everything in a short period of time. Work was not only done quickly, it was done well.
Description of Work: Re-keyed four locks. Picked (because I did not have the key for this one lock) and re-keyed a fifth.

Greg is a very nice and capable fellow. He called back promptly, set an appointment date (and then called back and made it earlier-which was great) and showed up on time. He had to repair the inside of the lock so he took it away and came back two days later, just like he said he would. Saved me a lot of money by repairing instead of replacing. This is not a complaint but you need to know that he does this after his "day job" so it may take a day or so for him to get to you. That's not a problem unless you have an absolute crisis. He responded very promptly and my problem was fixed completely to my satisfaction!
Description of Work: The front door latch/lock broke. We couldn't get in the door. It appeared that something in the lock mechanism was broken that kept the latch from functioning. Greg took it apart and discovered that the mechanism was broken and had been "fixed" with duct tape to keep it all together (by the people we bought the house from????). Any how, that's not the way to go through life! So he replaced parts and fixed the problem. Now it's as good as new but I still have about $200 in my pocket.

Greg is a friendly, informal guy who does freelance locksmith services in addition to another full-time job. He came over after hours (5 PM) on a Friday to re-key locks for us. He had some difficulty with alignment of the locks, but that appeared to be due to some settling of the door in the frame. He wasn't able to finish everything in one visit due to the problems, but came back the following Monday evening (with my agreement) and went out of his way to try and resolve the issues without charging more. Would recommend. Feel we got honest service and advice at a fair price, which is all I really want.
Description of Work: re-keyed 4 locks and provided new keys.

Greg showed up on time and was absolutely fabulous. He was very friendly and professional. He explained everything to us and actually saved us money by re-keying all of our locks vs. Replacing them. He was also very flexible with the time frame to accommodate our work schedules.
Description of Work: Greg re-keyed all doors in our new home.

Was a great experience and learned about locks in general.
Description of Work: Gregg was at my house on time and called before he came. Quickly changed, fixed or upgraded my locks, 4 in total, within an hour. Was very efficient and responsive to my questions. Saved me money by suggesting alternative ways to fix or upgrade my locks without having to spend costly dollars to upgrade. Will hire again.

When I called the shop, I could tell something was wrong because in a four-minute phone call, people kept interrupting the employee and he kept putting me on hold. When he did get here, he was 3 or 4 hours late and he was not prepared. He asked enough questions that I thought he knew what he was doing and he did change the front lock properly. Part of the work was done, but what he didn't do never got done. He was really in a hurry and left without giving me a bill. He said, he had to rush because of the big game. We have not heard from him since then.
Description of Work: I decided to have my locks changed.

He was willing to use doorknobs I had purchased. They work beautifully. One door was really sticking before the installation and he did some work that made it close very smoothly.
Description of Work: Greg removed 3 existing doorknobs and replaced them with 3 I had purchased. He was reliable, prompt and could think on his feet. Both my husband and I enjoyed him.

Greg returned my call the next day and asked what brand of key I had. During the first visit, he said that because the front door locks were a different brand than the back door locks, they could not be keyed to the same key. This would have been good to know beforehand. I decided to buy new locks for the back door so they could all be keyed to the same key. He couldn't make our next appointment, so he called and rescheduled. He came back to install and key the new locks. After installing the new locks, he said the new strike plate was the wrong size. We made an appointment for him to come back with a different strike plate. He showed up for the appointment an hour and 20 minutes late with no phone call. I was already gone by then, so I had him send me the strike plate and bill in the mail. He did.
Description of Work: I had a deadbolt and entry door knob replaced, 4 locks re-keyed to the same key, and 3 keys cut.

Greg did a very nice job. He was able to repair the deadbolt, and was able to remove the old lock on the shed so I could put a latch lock on it. He was very capable in performing the work in a short amount of time, and charged very reasonably. He was also quite friendly and helpful in describing what the problems were. I would definitely use him again.
Description of Work: I had two locks needing work. The deadbolt on one door would not turn, and the lock on my shed in the backyard was stuck. I could not get it open.

Mr. Nice was readily available and able to complete the job almost immediately which was important to us because we wanted the locks changed before we moved in. We had a couple of unexpected issues (a couple locks that weren't standard and a couple of the slots in the door frame needed adjusting) which required a second appointment. We were only charged for the one service call. He was available in the evenings which made scheduling very easy. He was always on time, polite, personable, and very informative. He even showed me how the locks work and how he re-keys them which was very interesting. I would highly recommend him!
Description of Work: Re-keyed all locks (10 locks) to house and garage (we were moving in). Also adjusted the slots in two door frames so the locks would fit correctly.
