Although it's no fun paying $110 to have a lock installed, it does require some tools and no-how. The guy that came out did a great job, was quick, and even tightened the door. The guy was very friendly and even showed me some tricks to make small fixes down the road. I hope I don't have to call these guys again, but if I need a locksmith they're definitely the ones I'll call.

It appears Ace Lock & Safe has been in the warehouse district for quite a while. The exterior, from…read morethe faded sign to the spotty windows are dusty and old. Dropped in during lunch two days ago to see if I could get a key duplicated. Inside is a small square room with some large safes on display. It's very neat and clean in the front. Straight ahead is the counter. The staff appear to hang out in the back, but usually someone will come out to the counter to assist. An older gentleman with white hair helped me out that day. His two large dogs behind the counter barked excitedly. The key was copied in less than a minute and cost less than $3 dollars, so I was impressed. Unfortunately, when I returned home to try out the key, the duplicate was not able to open the lock. I tried three times and then asked a family member to try opening the lock with the duplicate key, but he too, couldn't get the lock opened with the duplicate key. I returned the next day after work and this time, a brown haired young guy helped me. With an unnecessary dick-ish attitude, he rudely scoffed at me when I told him the duplicate doesn't work. I would've given just one yelp star based on this particular douchebag interaction, but the new duplicate he gave me actually worked, so two stars it is. I don't expect anyone to be a chirpy cheerleader when providing service, but derisive attitudes certainly repels me from coming back or giving recommendations. I'll definitely try other Minneapolis locksmith businesses in the future instead of this place.

A-1 Lock has been around forever directly in the heart of Saint Paul on Snelling. While parking may…read morenot be the best, know that the service and quality here will be. I know nothing about locks and can appreciate the old school decor and family portraits setup around the shop especially the black sharpie measuring marks around the shop door. We recently visited the shop to have our speciality house keys remade as I broke one. The pricing is reasonable and because they can service specialty keys that other shops can't, I consider them an essential business. Please consider A-1 Locks when needing specialty keys made. They are the best!

Eddy was very friendly, provided expert advice, and installed the lock with utmost professionalism. We had agreed he'd show up at 9:00am, but just prior to that he called to say he was running about 18 minutes late which was a nice touch. He was there in 17 minutes and set to work. The lock was installed and fully functional in no time even though the existing hole in the door had to be expanded. He provided excellent recommendation for the lock and several helpful tips about how to keep the lock working well for years to come. All this for a price that seemed very fair. I'd happily engage Fast Eddy for any lock/key related issues. Highly recommended!
