American Lock & Key responded so quickly! Keys were stolen along with other personal property. Scott C. was there within an hour, re-keying old locks and making extra keys from blanks that are harder to find. The cost was very reasonable, and his proficiency was priceless.Highly recommend!Thanks.

This is my second time using them. Tyler installed a new smart keypad lock for my door. He was great, fast, efficient and knowledgeable of the product he was installing and helped set up the app with me. Will use them again.
