Very disappointed!…read more I hired AB&O to replace the lock on my door. * I paid $400 for the service through Zelle. * The day the lock was replaced, it seemed to be working. However, a few days later after a few attempts the key would not turn properly, and l am unable to lock the door as intended. * I contacted the locksmith from AB&O, who replaced the lock to report the issue and request a repair or correction of the work performed. * I made multiple attempts to reach the locksmith through phone calls and text messages (which I know he receives text messages because we originally texted the job site before), but I have not received a response. My calls are now being directed straight to voicemail. * Since phone calls were not successful I sent a request by text message for the locksmith contact me to inspect and repair the issue or provide a fair resolution, since the service performed is not functioning properly.

They quoted a price and stuck to it: $95 for a lockout and $60 for a new mailbox lock. This was the…read moresame price as another company that responded responded to my Yelp Quote request (which might I add, has a verified license with Yelp and over 800 positive reviews), but since Best Key answered first, I went with them. I will say that I do appreciate them not changing the price on me. That being said, upon my first call, I was told that the tech would arrive at 4:10. The dispatcher then asked me to text him my information. Once I did, the ETA became 4:30, mind you our initial exchange occurred around 2pm. At 4:11, I received a text saying that my tech would be late with no updated ETA. I asked, and was told 5:10. Needless to say, I wasn't happy having been waiting for over 2 hours and being told to wait longer. I asked for a discount which was denied at first, but I persisted and said $5 off would be the least that they could do. The dispatcher obliged, and I was appeased for the time. The tech arrived a little sooner than expected at 5pm, but he was in a personal car with damages to the exterior rather than a company truck. He grabbed one small bag of tools and followed me to my apartment. When he started attempting to unlock the lock, I could tell he was not experienced. I've had a home lock opened by a locksmith before and there is precision to the process. He stuck two tools into the locks and started wiggling them around indiscriminately. With no luck and having seen I already bought a new lock set that I intended to install myself, he asked me if I still needed the old locks. I told him that I did because I was tired and didn't want to install the new ones until the next day. He told me he would install it for me for free and proceeded to DRILL THROUGH MY OLD LOCK WITH A POWER TOOL. There were metal shavings all over my shared apartment hallway floor that I had to clean up. When we got to the mailbox, he didn't have the right size lock on him and had to go grab one from a sister company which took about 20 additional minutes. The repair also included drilling rather than picking the lock and again, I cleaned up the shavings. When it came time for payment, I gave him my credit card. He asked if I had Venmo or Zelle. I genuinely don't have those apps on my phone. He then asked if I could write him a check. I understand that it costs businesses to take credit cards, but you can't try to coerce me into taking the payment type you want. If these modes of payment were preferred, that should've been disclosed from the beginning. Once he started writing the receipt, he kept telling me he was giving me discounts for things that were not my fault. Him drilling into my old lock and being forced to install the new ones was his fault, but he told me he was giving me the service for free. He also said that the price quote was for one door lock, not two. Who on this planet doesn't have a deadbolt on their door in additional to their regular door lock? And if this additional cost was legitimate, the dispatcher should have done his job and asked me more questions about the service during our initial exchange. Lastly, he told me that they typically charge $5 for a credit card purchase and that this was also his "discount" to me. I don't like when people make me feel like they're doing me a favor or use the small-business-card to guilt me into feeling bad. I paid you for a service with the price we agreed upon. The end. To top it off, his disorganized paperwork came out of a crumpled manila folder and I was told to take a picture of the receipt instead of being provided with one. Lesson learned: for services like this, review volume and licensing matters. UPDATE: I received a text message from the owner/dispatcher that began with "I'm sorry you feel that way, however..." rather than an apology for the service received, he blamed me for not having a vacuum for the tech to use (how is that my responsibility?) and also reiterated that I was receiving discounts rather than admitting he should have been more thorough upon our initial conversation about the service. I didn't care to respond and blocked the number. I'm removing one star. Unbelievable.

I called them after the period and the boss said that the technician would again delayed by 30 mins. Finally he arrived and took 20 mins to diagnose the problem. He replaced a part however the electronic part was not locking it. So the lock works with a key but cannot use the digital controls to lock and unlock it. The price was a little high for this around $170 , but i guess that this is the going rate. We still need to replace our lock as we need digital control.

Within five minutes of texting them, I received a response. In less than 20 minutes, I had an appointment scheduled, a price quote, and details about their payment options and mobile service. They come directly to you, which made the process incredibly convenient. I probably could have scheduled the service the same day, but I chose to book it for the following day. On the day of the appointment, the technician, Paul, was gracious, kind, and actually arrived before I did. He even told me to take my time getting there. He was friendly, professional, and took the time to show me the old battery, explaining the signs that indicated how old it was and why it had been causing problems. He also discussed options for getting an extra key fob in the future and provided me with pricing information so I could have a backup made when I'm ready. Fast, friendly, and professional service -- I couldn't be happier. Later that same night, I went to dinner with a friend who mentioned needing an extra key fob as well. I immediately forwarded Key Masters' Yelp profile to her. I've already recommended them to someone else, and I'll definitely continue recommending them in the future.
