I cant really comment on the work although im positive they wouldve done a more than satisfactory job if they are even half as proficient as Ami was on the phone. I didnt end up using them only bc I was in a real pinch when my garage spring snapped on Christmas morning and understandably he didnt have anyone available until Monday. He did respond pretty instantly and spent more time than he needed to (again on xmas day) informing me of various springs as well as the whole process. Id no idea prices could range so widely and it helped me decline the first quote bc they were way too high

Excellent experience. Within hours of me reaching out on Yelp, Ami was at my front door, and he did an excellent job fixing my lock issues. Ami was highly knowledgeable and patient, taking time to answer all of my questions and ensuring that I was satisfied with the final result. Will definitely be reaching out to this company for future needs!

I had an extremely positive experience with Ami, which stood in stark contrast to another garage door service who showed up unexpectedly a few minutes before him. Our garage door wouldnt close, the guide rail had bent badly, and a roller had come out of the guide rail. The other company said that it would cost $300 for them to only close the garage door, that it could not be repaired, and that I would have to buy a new door. Ami said that he could completely repair the existing door and that I should wait on buying a new garage door because he would get mine working properly. He fixed everything

We were in the process of moving and needed our locks changed. While Ami was there I had to run back to my old apartment. He waited for me, and when I got back he still took the time to discuss the job in detail, with some very helpful recommendations. He was very friendly, professional, and genuinely nice. We chose him based on his excellent reviews, and I have to say he exceeded my expectations. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who needs a locksmith.

Ami is the best! He is my go-to locksmith for any issues I have with locks, keys, etc. He is extremely polite and honest, the primary reason I keep going back to him. I recommend Ami and his company for any locksmith and garage door service you may require. Thank you Ami!

Ami was great! He replaced all of our locks on our new home and every single lock, even the gate, is on the same key. The handles look great and he was able to do everything the same day he came out to walk through everything with us. He was able to get the doors to fit better and we are really happy with the way everything turned out.
