Get matched with top locksmiths in Kettering, MD

"It went well. The locksmith arrived on time, was respectful, and showed expertise in the job. He made some helpful suggestions that simplified the work. I would recommend this firm for locksmith services and I would consider using them for handyman services."

"Responsive and on time. Locksmith was happy to slightly adjust the position of the lock for me after the initial installation."

"Update 4/8/15: I have changed my ratings for Price and Professionalism from B to A because I was contacted yesterday by Jim (Owner? / Manager?) at Sure Fit Security.  He had read my earlier review and noted that the technician had not fully followed protocol by not telling me in advance what the costs would be, and he offered a 10% discount on the work.  THIS, DEAR READERS, IS CALLED GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!  My earlier comments were not really negative - I just expressed surprise at the final cost while at the same time acknowledging that I still considered it reasonable given the quality of the service and equipment.  The follow-up from Jim demonstrates that the value of using a company like Sure Fit Security, as well as the value of using Angies List and providing useful feedback in reviews.
=========================================

My real estate agent recommended this company. I found them on Angies List and they were local and well-reviewed.  I left a message via Angies List after hours and was promptly contacted the next morning.  They were able to schedule a technician to come to my house between 10am and 1pm.  The technician arrived shortly after 10am.  I was delayed, and he agreed to wait the 15 minunutes it was going to take for me to arrive. The technician was knowledgeable and professional, not overly friendly, but ok.
Per my request, all locks can now be opened with the same key.  I was surprised by the final cost, but I don't think it was unreasonable.  One door was locked and the key to unlock it had been lost, so there was a charge to pick the lock.  Another door had a cheap lock mechanism that could not be rekeyed to match the others, so that door knob and deadbolt had to be replaced.  $60 for a new doorknob is a little pricey (I bought a similar one at Home Depot for around $25) but I know that the quality was good.
In summary, the work was done promptly and profesionally and I am satisfied. The price was reasonable even though it was more than I anticipated.  I should have asked for an estimate beforehand. 
(Note: In the past my mother was scammed by a locksmith company, and while trying and failing to get her money back I did a lot of research and found that locksmith scams are a major problem.  I was pleased to see on the Sure-fit Security web site that they hold professional certifications and even warn against the danger of scammers.)

"I was told arrival time would be 30-40 minutes. It was much longer (over 1 1/2 hours). But he did a fine job when got there. The real problem was the home advisor system. I had multiple companies contacting me and after I contracted with one, another called and lied, saying the locksmith in route did not work for company and saying he was coming instead. What a fiasco. I was at work and had just had a home break in. It was atrocious. I will not use home advisor again."

"Quick response and repair to garage door."

"Very well. The locksmith quickly identified the problem and produced a replacement part that fixed the issue. It has been 2 weeks since the repair job and the door has been working like a charm."

"very friendly service. Locksmith performed work within a couple hours of contact."

"I called several other lock smiths before I found Baldino's. All of them turned out to use the same sub contractor, who I waited for for hours and finally just told not to come. I found Baldino's at 9:30pm that night, and they only use their own technicians on jobs, which immediately made me feel like I was in good hands. Beyond that, when I placed the first call, the representative was calm and detailed (unlike the other locksmiths who seemed to barely have time to write down my phone number). They gave me an ETA that was long but honest, which I appreciated, so I know I could go home and wait, and because it was late in the evening, there were some extra charges.
When the technician arrived, Craig was competent and quick with his work to recover my keys. I would recommend them 100%.

".Chris  came to my house in about an hour after I called.  He assessed the situation and fixed the problem in about 20 minutes. 
The door latch was loose and extremely hard to open. He removed the latch, assessed the problem and had it in working order in a very short time.
   I have called on him in the past and highly recommend him to anyone who needs a locksmith.
