Gary got here on time. He was able to repair locks which are very valuable locks expensive ones that I thought I would have to replace. He can rekey locks which he did very quickly. He's a friendly person and a fine educator. He showed me how keep the locks lubricated and how to work their features. I'm very happy that I hired expert lock to do the work on our locks!

I had a great experience working with Gary. He installed 3 deadbolt lock sets for my home and he took great care to make sure everything was installed perfectly. He also cleaned up any debris from the job and made sure I tested all keys to ensure everything worked as it should. I would recommend him to anyone needing locksmith services.

Gary was excellent. Installed one deadbolt, one smart lock and suggested re-installation on existing lock as it was not properly installed. Cleaned all debris after installation. Did awesome job. Will definitely hire him again.
