Stopped to have an " old key" duplicated and was relieved to find a knowledgeable key guy running the store. Michael Chiarella was friendly and a pleasure to deal with, making a duplicate that worked perfectly! Next time I need a lock or key, I know where to go. Thank you Mike for a job well done. Stay away from the big box stores go to a pro. read more

See all

I needed a locksmith to rekey our front door lock. I called Able Security on Friday afternoon and Eric picked up right away. We scheduled an appointment for Monday at 10am. He and an assistant called ahead to ask if it was okay to arrive early. In the course of rekeying the deadbolt, they advised that replacing the unit was better because the previous one was so old. The door handle was a "camelot" style in brass, and as it isn't the preferred style these days, they didn't have a matching deadbolt. They kindly drove back to their shop to retrieve a brass deadbolt that they had. They came back, installed it, and cut the extra copies of the keys that I wanted. As a courtesy, they also tightened the door handle which I was frankly worried about, since it was wobbly and didn't feel secure, but I didn't have the skills to figure out how to tighten it myself. They didn't have to, but they disassembled the handle to tighten it, and upon doing so, found that it, too, was so old that not only were the screws spinning and not catching the material, but the metal parts inside the lock that should latch together were worn down and wouldn't go back together. So the door handle could turn to open the door, but if you put any pressure on it at all, it slid right off and you were holding a doorknob in your hand. That put a time crunch on their schedule, but they didn't leave with the job half done. They suggested I get a new handle and they put a temporary doorknob on. Once I picked up a new handle, I called back, and Eric fit me in the next morning. That morning, I was running an errand and Eric called right on time to say that he was at the house. I was running late, and he waited patiently for 5-10 minutes until I arrived home. He and his assistant got the handle on in a half hour, and didn't even charge since the reason the door handle wouldn't go back on in the first place was because they were being thorough and tightening the handle which wasn't in the original statement of work, but an extra favor. I really appreciated the professionalism, integrity, punctuality, and advance notice of their arrival. Highly recommend! read more

I went to Able to get a special car key cut which I bought online from a dealer. I got the key online because it's a special one that fits into the remote for my car. I called before going and he said he'd give it a try. When I got there he gave me a hard time for bringing in my own key blank, but when I asked him if he carried this type, he revealed he didn't. In the end, he did cut the key, and it worked the first time so I was happy. The only drawback is that it was very expensive, but in the end I got what I needed. read more

Very pleased with the courteous and knowledgeable service, response time, reasonable prices. The owner, Michael, was working behind the counter in the store. Very pleasant and upbeat. Wish all retailers were this good! read more

The keys are cut perfectly. They always work like the oem. He has a very large inventory of blanks. Don't know the gentleman's name, but he's such a pleasant person. I get all my personal keys and my company uses him for all our work needs. read more

I needed to get a Smart key made up for my Lincoln in a hurry. I did not want to pay the $200+ price from the dealer. Michael made up the key quickly while I waited. It worked the first time. He also was getting ready to close and he stayed until I arrived. This is great customer service and at a fair price! read more

They are life savers. I had an emergency at home and they made everything possible to help us as soon as possible, explained everything, re-keyed the doors, and informed us about the costs but also about the options we had in terms of equipment and long-term performance. read more

Great local business. Have used them to make difficult duplicate keys and to replace a broken door handle which was installed by another company. After using that other company and now finding Able Security, I will not use anyone else. Great guys, fair prices, and quick service. read more

Able Security came to change the locks on our new home the day we closed. The technician was friendly and efficient, and the price was very reasonable. We will definitely call them back if we need more locksmith services. read more

I've alway gotten excellent, experienced, professional service from Michael, whether it's making duplicate keys or advising me about home security or different brands and styles of door locks. He knows his stuff. He's been in this area for decades, and you don't do that unless you are a reputable business. I don't know if Joan B. even exists but I know she's never stepped foot in Able Security, because all the folks there are first rate helpful and friendly. How silly! Michael- thanks to you and your folks for all the years of great service! read more
