Alex was very knowledgeable and identified the problem immediately. He promptly replaced our defective lock and completed his work within 20 minutes at a reasonable price. We will use his services again.

Alex quoted a fair price, answered all my questions, installed a new commercial lock, everything works, we're happy. Would hire him again.

Alex was great. I needed 3 locks changed today and one that had problems locking. He was able to accommodate me and repair the lock. He was very punctual… actually arrived sooner than expected and it didn’t take long. Thank you Alex.

Alex was incredibly quick to reply and made changing the locks on our new home an easy process! He was also very personable and gave me some great restaurant recommendations. As we are doing many renovations on our home having Alex come and take care of this helped check something important off our to do list :). Thanks, Alex!
