He's fabulous. He's wonderful. We've got a very old front door. the lock is constantly getting grumpy. It's very hard to change and he comes and babies it every once in a while. He's very good. He's very responsive. He's very trustworthy.

Tony showed up on time, was professional, courteous and had a good "can do" attitude.  Repaired door jamb without being asked to do so.  As home is 50 years old and had multiple lock types, the job took longer than I expected, but I was pleased with the results.

Lock was fixed quickly. However, it malfunctioned again within one month. Causes of these failures were not clear at the time. However, after several weeks, it became evident hat low temperatures were causing lock to freeze. When temperatures moderated, the problem disappeared.

It went well. He arrived exactly on time.  Not only did he fix the lock, he realigned the door handles and all the moving parts.  He even oiled the hinges.  Everything is working very smoothly now.

The person who responded to do the work was very professional and courteous. He did upsell us from what we had initially scheduled, but we didn't mind his efforts since most of what he was proposing was probably a good idea anyway. The office/store people, however, were another story. They were not so courteous either in scheduling or in follow up. First, because the person doing the work got approval from us to do additional work to what was initially scheduled, we overheard the office on the radio being "not so  nice" to this person because he was taking too long on the call (very unprofessional for them to do this in a manner that we could overhear). We felt that he was doing a good job and we paid extra for the additional time and for the additional material that he used. A couple of days later, we had a problem with the lock on one of the egress doors. It would not unlock. We called and were told that there's nothing they could do for us. We insisted that they send someone since the installation seemed to be flawed and that the door could not be opened, but they responded that there was nobody available at the time and that they'd check the next day to see when they could come over. My wife emphasized that this door provides egress in the event of a fire and we wanted it resolved ASAP, however, they only seemed to care that they came initially, did the work and got paid for that job, with no interest in backing up the installation that was done. I'm really sorry to have had this experience, since as I've stated, we like to use local business owners when possible, but will not put up with poor customer service and a bad attitude to do so.

I called Accurate Locksmiths on Monday 12/3, and they were able to come
the following day.  The technician, Chris, arrived 10 minutes early and
was there for around 2 1/2 hours.  He was meticulous, clean, and
professional.  He fixed other small issues on a couple of the doors so
they would close smoothly and tightly.  I was very pleased with this
company's service, and would recommend them highly.

He wasn't on-time, he was early!!  Great guy, very knowledgable and friendly.  Informed me that I purchased wrong type of lockset for the front door but he measured and cleaned up the one I had so it actually worked much better.  Second lock was a simple replacement of keyed deadbolt.  Had to wait for the realtor to show up because I couldn't find my key and he was very patient.  Great service, not expensive and super reliable.

I was called and asked if, due to a cancellation, they could come a bit earlier than scheduled. I agreed. Chris arrived and worked for nearly an hour, very meticulously. He was courteous and very professional. I would say that the name of the company is quite fitting...Accurate!

It was a great experience.  He came in the allotted time frame that was stated over the phone. Gave estimate and came back later in the day to do the work as I requested. This was the first time I used Angie's list and can say i was extremely satisfied with the experience.

After the purchase of our home we called Accurate Locksmith to replace all door locks including the garage. While another locksmith from Angie's List was not available for one week, Accurate was available the next day. The locksmith was on time and replaced all locks in a timely and efficient manner including the adjustment of weatherproofing around the front door in order to ensure the door was closing properly.

They were able to order and install the door handle set within a week. They installation itself was done well and efficiently. He also keyed the lock to the others in the house. The only problem was that he was late although when I called the office, they immediately found out when he would arrive. Overall, I am very happy and would use them again.

We closed on a new house on the morning of June 29, so we were eager to get new door locks installed as quickly as possible.  The first locksmith we tried on June 28 was not available until July 9, so we called Accurate Locksmith, which was several miles farther away from our place.  Rob told us that they would be able to do it on the afternoon of June 29, which was ideal.  Chris came promptly at 3:30 as scheduled.  Before installing the new lock, he noticed that the door was sticking, so he adjusted the door jamb and side molding to permit easier opening and closing.  Since we were also considering replacing the old door, he made some specific recommendations on types of doors that would work well, even though his firm doesn't provide them.  His work was completed in about 45 minutes, and we had a nice chat about the area while he was working.  The lock and door are still working beautifully about four weeks after the job was completed, so we are quite satisfied.  Chris was competent, courteous and friendly.  He helped make us feel welcome in our new home.

I contacted Accurate Locksmith to have my locks changed and Chris scheduled an appointment for December 6, the day after my call.  I explained to him that my front door was a problem from the day it was installed and in humid weather, it was impossible to open.  Chris was professional and pleasant and answered my questions as he was working.  Chris worked for 1.5 hours because two of the doors had issues with the way they were originally hung by a contractor.  Chris changed the locks on three doors and was meticulous in his work.  He lubricated the locks and adjusted the hinges and strike plates on the doors.  The front door now opens smoothly with no issue in humid weather.   I am so pleased that the problems I experienced with my front door have been fixed and the door glides open easily.  The lock mechanism on the front door never worked properly until Chris corrected the problem.  I would recommend Accurate Locksmith for their quick response to my request, fair price for work completed and quality of work done.
