Mr Rekey was super responsive and the work quality was great! He came in fully prepared and rekeyed all my locks and even added deadbolts. He’s an honest and hardworking person and I would highly recommend him for any kind of lock and key work!

Mike had a lot of expertise in locks and, in particular, the old locks in my building. He came up with creative and cost-efficient solutions to get the hardware and locks fixed and changed on about 12 doors. Thank you for the great work!

Was quick and knowledgeable. The first lock I had wouldn't fit the door cutouts and he explained the issue and was able to install a backup quickly. Highly recommend his work and will hire again in the future.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I give pricing before any work is done. I'm happy to do a free estimate any time.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
depends on the job. for lockouts and rekeys I need a state ID before work. any thing else I take a look at what is needed and write up the price. then if you agree I start the work.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a member of ALOA.( associated locksmiths of America) some of my training is though them and some of it is from assa abloy academy. then of course I've had a ton of in person training from locksmiths above me.
