Our new site is coming soon this month!

Welcome

Our Mission is to shed light on the practices of unscrupulous locksmiths and to help you prevent and resolve the occasional unfortunate lockout events.


Take a moment to view the following public warnings to be more aware and protect yourself when looking for a locksmith.

Consumer Story:  “I called a locksmith company on the phone and asked how much they would charge for unlocking  my home door.  They said they would give me a very good discount but will not tell me what the price was.  When their locksmith arrived at my door, almost two hours later, I asked again, and again the same answer.   When I insisted to know before his service, he told me that the price started at $120!   I said that’s a lot more than I wanted to pay and I would like to shop around.  He said that he had already come out and threatened me that he would call the police if I did not buy his service.  But I stood my ground.  Then, he called his company who finally reduced it to $80.”

As in any profession, there are always a few that make people worry about the whole profession.  We are not telling you that all locksmiths are bad.  We are simply making you aware of  the practices of some bad ones so that you can recognize these practices when you see them and take the necessary precautions to protect yourself.
