Commercial white door with access control security lock

Called him Saturday night at midnight. He arrived within 20 minutes as he said he would. Got the door opened in about 15 minutes. His charge was really reasonable for someone called in the middle of the night.

Alan B.,Google Review


He was a life saver. The weather was at 10 degrees at 10 at night. My key pad lock on my front door would not work and of course all my windows and other doors were locked. He was at my house within 20 minutes. After working in the cold he was successfully able to open my door. The whole time he was gracious and pleasant. Considering everything I was more than hoary to pay what I thought was a reasonable fee.
