Never picked up the phone around 2am, What's the point of being 24/7 if you don't answer....

Got locked out of my apartment and I was freaking out. Called these guys and they were super helpful. Got to my place in 20 minutes and finished the job in about 20 minutes also. Ben was super friendly and gave me a reasonable price. Definitely calling them if I ever have any other problems

Eilay was amazing! He came after he was already home to let me into my apartment because it was an emergency. He was extremely kind and talked me through what had happened to my lock and was incredibly efficient with his repair. He was calm and helpful and answered all of my questions definitely would recommend using his services!

Don't even waste your time. I had them changed my locks and not even a month went by and the key got stuck I called them and they had no recollection of what they did. They said it never happened. I asked for the managers name and got hung up on multiple times and nobody ever knew what was going on.

Called for estimate. I asked prices; they prefer to tell you when they get here. I asked for estimate to just replace cylinder... 175.00 to 275.00. I wonder how much to re-thread lock, put in high security cylinder, new doorknobs and security bar? $350 or more, probably.
Sounds like they take advantage of the stress and pressure. Which is ok, if you have no economic worries
I ended up using Aero lock---change cylinder price (not estimate): standard $125, high security $140. They arrived in 30min, changed the cylinder, AND re-threaded the stripped lock (saved me 100+), AND replaced doorknobs
