Amazing, amazing, amazing! Y’all it’s 1:30 in the morning and I locked my keys inside of my car. There were just sitting in the passenger seat under one of the Christmas presents I bought. I could literally see the keys but couldn’t get to them. I called 3 other companies who were supposedly 24 hour locksmiths but they weren’t able to send someone out until 8am. But then I called Locksmith on duty. They answered quickly and someone came out to my location in less than 20 minutes. They verified my identify, popped that lock and I was good to go. And on top of that it was only $95. Other places always try to get over on you with this fee and that hidden fee. But Alex was straight forward about their pricing. I hope I don’t find myself in a situation where I have to call them again lol. But if you lock yourself out of your vehicle and need some help quickly, no matter the time, call Locksmith On Duty. They’re be there ready to serve you and at a reasonable price. ? Goodnight y’all.

The man came on schedule, changed the locks on 2 doors, and keyed them to match the existing lock on a third door. He also charged extra for work to make the new locks fit the doors, and left a real mess for me to clean up.

I had a front door lock that broke in the closed position that I then made worse trying to remove on my own. Called Locksmith on Demand on a Saturday afternoon, they were out within the hour and took care of everything in about 45 minutes. Price was very fair, service was great. Highly recommended.

Alex did a great job.He was professional, worked efficiently and then instructed me on how the digital codes worked by demonstrating the process. He double checked to make sure my code worked and that the door lined up correctly. He also fixed latch on my other lock that was broken off. He was very knowledgeable.

I bought a new door handle and a deadbolt from an online DIY site, but never had the courage to install it myself. Seemed like it might be too easy to screw up and sacrifice security. After a year of looking at the box, I finally got on Angie’s List to find a locksmith to do it properly. Within minutes of submitting my need, Locksmith on Duty contacted me. They had availability same-day and they provided a reasonable (I thought) price - $25 travel + $69 to install the hardware. The locksmith, Alex, called me 30 minutes before he arrived to verify the appointment at to let me know he was en route. He arrived promptly when he said he would, and he quickly installed the handle and lock. His work was quick, efficient and of high quality. Before he left, he walked through the lock’s operation with my wife and I to make sure we knew how to lock and unlock both locks without locking ourselves out. I really appreciated the extra few minutes he spent with us to explain the features of hardware he didn’t even provide. I was very satisfied with my experience with Locksmith on Duty. I would not hesitate to use them again myself, or to recommend them to others. Bravo, Alex!

Great experience. Very professional, quick appointment, arrived on time, was thorough and careful. On a personal level, I thought he was a really nice guy -- took plenty of time to answer questions, including a few on an unrelated door/lock issue. Will call them again next time I need a locksmith.

Art called ahead to let us know that he was going to be about thirty minutes later than our scheduled appointment.  He showed up exactly when he said he was and toured our house both inside out and out to get the full picture of our unusual arrangement. Our new house had an office with a separate door, an in-law suite with a separate door, and a downstairs apartment with a separate door. Each had deadbolts and door knobs.
Art said he was usually called in on commercial jobs, so the complexity of our multi-door, multi-lock, missing keys scenario was no big deal. 
 Art went through and methodically began rekeying each of the doors. I could only find some of them, so I called my wife to bring her full set. After he had done all he could, he went back to his warehouse to get a few more parts he needed for some of the older, more specialized deadbolts. When my wife arrived with the backdoor and front door keys, he finished those off quickly even taking time to drill new holes in the glass paneled rear door to add deadbolt.  One of the doors had its lock installed upside down, which made it awkward to open.  Art was able to switch it rightside up quickly and easily.  The locks all worked flawlessly and were very smooth to open and close. 
Locksmith on Duty is a family owned and operated company. The are a terrific small business that I would highly recommend. We may have a keyless front door lock in our future, and we will reach out to Art again if we do.

Alex came within the hour to our White Marsh location and gave us an estimate.  Being new to the cost of commercial work we called around to get other quotes and had one other locksmith come and look at our situation and give an estimate.  It is unbelievable the range of estimates.  Alex's estimate was the lowest.  $150/door was the average and did not include labor in one case.  The most expensive was $250/door.  All locksmiths called came from Angie's list.  Alex was there over 2-3 hours and was very professional, courteous and willing to solve another problem for us that came up.

It was nice. I was able to send them text messages like with the pictures of my lock so they knew exactly what they need to do and what they need to bring because my lock isn't a normal dead bolt, it was a vertical dead bolt. I did a little research about it and they're not as easy to come by so for sure if they just came out then they might not have been prepared. I pictured the lock and sent it to them so he actually went to the warehouse to make sure he had the lock before he came and it was nice. He would say, "I would get back to you," in like an hour and then he would actually be back after 2 hours.

We went to go out the front door and the front door would not open. We called Locksmith on Duty on Friday evening and within 25 minutes Mr Popov was at my home. The lock on my door had completely broken which is why my door would not open. Mr Popov had to come in my back door after walking through my yard to gain access to my home, he immediately removed his shoes as not to track dirt through my home. He diagnosed the problem within minutes and worked to correct it. He was pleasant and professional. The bill was reasonable given that this was a Friday evening. Within one hour my door lock was fixed. We would use Locksmith on Duty again without hesitation.

What an amazing locksmith. He's the one I have been waiting for! I was locked out this morning with my two dogs. The first locksmith to answer my call was horrible, and I asked him to leave. I called Alex and asked him if he could change my locks. I have gotten locked out twice now and wanted to rekey the house to one key. I had three doors, and added in another one to install a lock. I had a deadbolt put on the door. There was an antique lock in the front door, and regular locks in the rest. He installed a new door handle to the garage as well as the new deadbolt to the side door.

This wasn't an easy job because of all the variety of the problems I have. I was completely blown away with Alex's knowledge. He fixed an antique lock on my bathroom that hasn't worked since we moved in three years ago. It was a really complicated fix, and he was able to figure out what was going on. He worked really hard and found the solution, and was able to tell me what had happened. For the first time since I moved in, I can shut the door, AND the handle turns. WOW!

They were prompt answering the phone and came to my house quickly. He was unable to fix the broken knob, so he ran out to Lowe's to purchase a new door knob. Overall, the service was quick, polite, and professional. The charge for the service is what I would expect for the new door knob and the service provided. I would recommend Locksmith On Duty and will use them again in the future.
