I was locked out of my apt around 2am. I called Nova Locksmith around 9:20am (I didn't want to bug anyone during the night so I "kicked" in my car) and 25 minutes later, Alex showed up. Within a few minutes later, I wasn't locked out anymore. He explained the reason and gave me great suggestions. The cost was very reasonable and worth every penny. Highly recommend him if you're ever locked out of your home. read more

Incredibly fast and got me into the house with ease! Alex is professional and tenacious- thank you for coming to the rescue!

Alex is the bomb! 911 Locked out emergency. None of the other services could come when they said they could but Alex showed up in 12 minutes from the time he picked up the phone. No joke. Thank goodness. Wasn't an easy job----digital lock battery died --with a distressed puppy on the other side of the door for an hour... no one was happier than my dog when Alex opened the door. read more

Recommend you shop around before using Nova Locksmith. I had a small lock snafu when trying to tighten my loose cylinder on Thanks giving day. Unfortunately the inner key cylinder popped out as well as some springs and tiny slugs and while it might be possible to fix this, I figured it would be far easier to have a locksmith provide a new cylinder and key it to my existing key. In the meantime, I popped the cylinder back in and used the deadbolt if not at home. I'd rather not pay emergency prices over the Thanksgiving weekend. I did browse online a cylinder can be between $15 - $35 (basic no frills) but you still have the issue with re-keying it to match your other doors. The last time I had my (multiple) doors re-keyed, the total cost was around $65-$75 (sometime in the last 10 years) and I know I also got several keys and two new cylinders from a locksmith who made housecalls. So today I started calling locksmiths and Nova locksmith charges $65 to show up at your door and then stated the cylinder would probably cost an additional $50. So basically $115 for less than 10 minutes of work. Not a bad price if you have a real emergency and are locked out or are unable to lock your door at all. But my repair wasn't an emergency and I can disassemble and reassemble my lock in 10 minutes myself and my deadbolt was working fine so I wasn't too worried. Hearing the price, I let Nova know I would do a bit of price comparison before scheduling an appointment. He told me to beware of nefarious locksmiths who will quote a LOW price and then end up charging much more later. I mentioned that is why I was calling around and asking questions. Obviously no one can quote an exact cost of a part without seeing the part but a ballpark figure or range should be doable for someone in the business. Next call to a local locksmith "Mario's locksmith" who has a store front on Mission Street. Realizing I could just bring the cylinder in (vs paying a premium for onsite service), I asked for a ball park quote. Mario quoted me approximately $30 for the cylinder and $10 to rekey it to my current key. He stated it would take 10-15 minutes in the shop. Needless to say I took my cylinder out of my door and hightailed it to Mario. In the end I spent $27 (rather than the $115) and am very happy I decided to shop around. Sure this meant I had to disassemble and reassemble my lock myself, but it is only a 10 minute job (5 screws), but at less than 1/4 of the price Nova Locksmith offered I'm happy to do it myself. I assume Nova locksmith is very professional and worth every penny in an emergency, but if you aren't in dire straits and are somewhat handy there are cheaper alternatives out there. I will also state they answered the phone promptly and were very courteous and helpful so if you have money to burn they might be the right choice for you. read more

Someone tried to break in to my garage and broke the lock so I couldn't access my garage.

Fast and reliable. Showed up on time and completed the work quickly. Very easy to work with and accommodating.

The last thing you need at the end of a very long day is to return home and realize your house keys are sitting on a table in your house instead of your pocket. Alex from Nova saved the day.

I'd recommend Nova without hesitation. read more
