We had a deadbolt lock that we couldn't open on the front door of our house. I called Fred the Fixer expecting to get someone to come out the next week. I was told they would call when someone was available. To my surprise, later that afternoon I got a call saying someone could be there shortly. When he arrived, he quickly took the deadbolt apart and found that the inner working part was broken. He went out to his truck, brought back a replacement part and reassembled the lock. As long as he was there, I asked him to take a look at our side door deadbolt which was very hard to turn. He took it apart, saw that it didn't appear bad and put something on it to make it slide easier. This didn't help so I asked him to just replace the inside lke he did on the front door. The serviceman was pleasant and courteous. I would definitely call them again if I had a lock problem.
Description of Work: Fast with excellent work.

Owen from Fred the Fixer re-keyed locks after we purchased a new home. He was prompt and professional, and he even showed me how to re-key some of the locks on my own. I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: We had all locks re-keyed on a new home purchase.

I have been using Fred the Fixer for almost a year now. They are very friendly and knowledgable. I have taken locks to them to be rekeyed for an excellent value. I have bought special commercial locks from them I couldn't find elsewhere. I have had them come out to my home (which is a five-plex) and business multiple times. I highly recommend them!
Description of Work: rekeying locks both on-site and off-site.
