I live in a house that was built in 1925 that has the original mortise lock in the front. Of…read morecourse this mechanism has opened the door a million times and was in my estimation starting to permanently wear out. Rather than replace the door to replace the door knob, I called Tick Tock who knew exactly what they were doing. They refurbished the mechanism, and they also replaced the dead bolt which was put in more than 30 years ago, incorrectly. They put in a better lock and installed it in a way that makes it more secure. It turned out so good that I had them come over and replace the back door lock. A lot of people had copies of keys to the house. Now I don't have to worry about it anymore with the new locks. This is a Five Star business.

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.

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!
