Pat was quick to respond, easy to schedule, and on time. He was professional, friendly, and courteous. Multiple different style locks were changed to all match the same key. Much appreciated!

After using my front door several times on a Sunday, it came as a real surprise when I was unable to open my unlocked door later in the day.  The door handle would rotate but the door would not budge.  I called one locksmith that listed 24-hour service and left a message that, to date, has never been returned.  The next day I called a second locksmith and left a message which was returned two hours later (which I did appreciate).  However, while waiting for the return phone call I decided to try Bell's Lock and Key Service.  Imagine my surprise when a real person answered my call.  I was asked to explain the situation and was asked very good follow-up questions about what the situation was (what brand of lock was broken, what other doors had locks that were keyed the same as the front door, etc.).  Mr. Bell was on his way to another appointment but promised to call with an estimate of the work.  True to his word, he called back with an estimate and fit me into his busy schedule the same day.  Not only was he a pleasure to work with, he also explained what he was doing and why (and why the lock had broken).  I appreciated him taking the time to educate me, especially when I had a lock issue that I had never experienced before.  Mr. Bell was professional, knowledgeable and charged me exactly what he quoted me over the phone.  I would definitely use Bell's Lock and Key Service again!

Pat was extremely professional, he showed up on time and quickly changed the lock on the front door and garage door. He cut us 6 keys on-site and was on his way. I highly recommend this company.

Pat was extremely responsive and very flexible about scheduling.  We certainly appreciated that he fit us in during the holiday season and on short notice.  He was very knowledgeable and was able to provide an accurate estimate in a few short phone calls.  We would recommend him to anyone!

I requested a price quote and scheduled an appointment with Pat Bell, the owner.  He was very friendly, knowledgeable and professional.  Pat arrived on-time and did an excellent job preparing the door and installing the deadbolt and handle set. He was very meticulous in ensuring that the bolts were perfectly lined up for smooth operation with no binding.  He explained the complete operation of the hardware and said to call him if I had any problems or questions.  I enjoyed our conversion during the installation and found Pat to be very sincere and someone who takes pride in the quality of his work. I would definitely use Pat again and highly recommend his services to anyone needing a locksmith.

Outstanding service.  I called and explained what was wrong with a broken doorknob.  Pat recommended a solution that I could complete on my own.  His recommendation worked, so no service call was needed!  I really appreciated Pat's willingness to help (free of charge).  This is a business with integrity and honest values that I'd certainly use next time.

Pat is a wonderful person.  We met him through church, and completely trust him with our home security.  He is very professional, and kind.  He also does an amazing job with our locks and keys.

Patrick arrived promptly...very nice man! We had a new front door installed so we would have 3 different keys. Patrick changed all locks, made sure that the locks are secure, and gave me some very good safety lessons. I would definitely use his services again if needed and i definitely recomend his company.

I found Pat on Angie's list and reached out to him due to other positive reviews and based on his location.  Pat responded quickly and called to obtain additional details.  He changed the locks and keys for us on 4 doors for a home we just purchased.  He communicated well, showed up when he said he would, was very personable, and did a great job.  I would recommend Pat for anyone looking for locksmith work at their home.

I called Patrick yesterday to tell him what had happened and he called back right away and came this morning to fix it. He took the lock out of the door, lubed  and readjusted it, and now it works great. I asked him what I owed him and he told me nothing.
I was so impressed with his professionalism on this matter. To top it all off, he is a very nice man. I'd recommend him to anyone.

I recently purchased a new home and wanted all the locks re-keyed. Pat was very responsive and he came over the next day. We soon discovered that the locks I had were custom locks for which Pat could not re-key them. He gave me great advise on which locks I should purchased. He did not charge me for his first visit and was very flexible. He made time in his schedule to come out on Saturday, after I purchased the locks I needed.
He promptly came on time on Saturday and did a great job installing the locks. He even re-keyed all the locks so that one key opens all 3 door in my home. 
I highly recommend Pat and I've added him to my speed-dial in the event of a lock-out.
