Glen runs a very professional locksmith business. I had called other locksmiths before calling Glen. Other people took my information and gave incomplete and noncommittal low estimates with a promise that someone will call later, which in some cases no one did. Talking to Glen it was very apparent that he knew his stuff. His prices were no different than the car dealer, but we did not need to tow the car to the dealership. Glen has a very friendly and courteous demeanor as well.

Glen was very knowledgeable and affordable. He replaced the deadbolt in a few minutes. He was the only locksmith willing to come at such a short notice.

Glen showed up at the time agreed upon. It was not an easy job but he worked diligently to get it done. By the way, he was the only locksmith out of about 15 different companies i called that could do the job.
