I hired this locksmith to replace my front door lock. He installed a new lock and told me that the…read moreBaldwin lock he provided was better than my previous Schlage. Right away, I noticed that all the keys he left looked like copies rather than original manufacturer keys. I later followed up to ask why I hadn't received an original key with a brand-new lock. During that conversation, instead of addressing my question, he repeatedly said, "I don't remember you," at least six times. I had already acknowledged that I reached out later than I should have and did not expect him to remember me. My only concern was understanding why I didn't receive an original key. From the beginning of that interaction, he came across as defensive and did not clearly answer my question.

So grateful that I called Hoblin! My 1927 home had three doors with damaged mechanisms that my…read morecontractor and handyman couldn't fix, and nobody makes the replacement parts anymore. Paul looked to his personal stash, and what he couldn't find, he fashioned himself. He has a wealth of knowledge about locks and doors and is expertly skilled. After he fixed my doors, he helped me with an old safe that was in our basement. Cost was very reasonable, and he and his wife were super kind. Highly recommend!!

I really wanted to like this local business, but they seem to be doing their best to get bad…read morereviews. I hired Paul for a really routine re-keying: it was a slow, expensive, and rude experience, but I want to support my neighbors on Garth Road, so I didn't say anything assuming it was a bad day. Then I had to have a second experience with them: The lock started sticking more and more, to the point where I was concerned the key would snap off. I called him, he hung up on me mid-question (saying his wife would call me back to schedule things). I called back and he sent me to voicemail; at that point I got fed up. By the time his wife called me back: - I requested quotes from Yelp - Another locksmith reached out, gave a quote - That new locksmith showed up, replaced the lock entirely, and spent time shaping the lock according to the shape of the doorframe. He was also polite and friendly to talk with! - He charged less than 1/2 the price for *all* of this than Paul's routine re-keying. So by the time Paul's wife called me back, I started to say "look, I don't need your services, someone already fixed it for me". She got incredibly defensive, to the point of ranting about how the super of a co-op was recently fired, and something about an affair? It was weird, she hung up, then immediately called me back (off to voicemail with her!) and I resolved to write this review. What the heck. I just hope they're not replaced with another salon.
