Herb is really one of the most knowledgeable and friendly men in this business. I can highly recommend Locks on Wheels if you're searching for a locksmith with experience. read more

We had just moved into our new home and immediately lost the one key to a garage door that we needed. We contacted our realtor for a locksmith recommendation and she recommended Liz at Locks on Wheels. We are so happy we contacted Liz. She did a great job rekeying two doors for us and was such a pleasure to meet. (almost makes us want to lose another key so that we can see her again!). Thank you Liz! read more

I just moved into a new home and needed multiple locks rekeyed (including one smart lock). Liz came out and took care of business professionally and really quickly! She was awesome. Thanks for such great service! read more

Excellent service from start to finish!! Easy to schedule an appointment, prompt arrival, great communication, reasonable value, and even a call back with instructions on how to work out a previously unsolved mystery. Highly recommend!!! read more

Super great and convenient service! I couldn't be happier with the final outcome. I highly recommend.

Wonderful service ... Liz was amazing and came out the next day to fix some bad locks at our cabin. This is a very good and reliable company . read more

This is as good as a small business can get. Liz came out and replaced our front door knob and keyed the new knob to match the existing dead bolt. She was friendly, quick, efficient, and everything was completed perfectly. She also provided same-day service with no extra charge; I called around 10 am, and she was there by 2:30 pm. Later, I read her personal story on the company web site explaining why she became a locksmith, and it made me even happier that I had used her services. Best of all, she is extremely nice and understands new puppies! read more

Everything you read here plus more is SO TRUE. Liz's service is impeccable. And they really do call you and show up, "What a concept"! Don't call other places, you'll just add to the frustration. Call these folks first and always. They have our personal and business from now on. Liz, thank you for making a frustrating situation easier. May the word get out about how good your service is. (Thanks for the tip about the rock in the door too) Regards, Jerry read more

The five stars is for service and being human beings. Out of nowhere the lock on our front door simply stopped working. I called these guys based on the reviews and was greeted warmly and told a tech would call within twenty mins. I got a call about five minutes later from Herb who couldn't have been nicer. He asked me to take a photo of the lock and text it to him. Five mins later he called me and asked me to spray some WD 40 in the lock then insert and remove the key four times then try and turn it. I did that and the lock worked perfectly, no charge as he said the object is to help people and save them money. If I EVER need a locksmith again I will be calling these VERY FAIR tradesmen. Herb I am also sending over a Starbucks gift card, thanks for saving me a bundle. read more

i called them after seeing them on yelp. they were great. their prices were slightly lower than a few other places i called. they took a while but had some complicated locks in my new home. they keys from before were all keyed but the width of them varied on different doors. locks on wheels got everything working just perfectly. one door had some cheap mechanism inside and was slightly broken, they showed me why it was not a strong lock and gave me some recommendations. they did a great job. took a while but it was because i had so many cylinders.... 16!! if i never need a locksmith i will definitely use them again. read more

The latch on the door from my garage into my house jammed. As a result, the door would not close. I tried to take the doorknob/latch apart, but I could not get the doorknob free of the latch. I called Locks on Wheels, and Herb called me right back. When I told him the problem, he said he might be able to talk me through how to get everything apart on the phone. It took 15 or 20 minutes, but I was able to follow Herb's instructions and finally get the mechanism out of the door. Once I saw how to do it it was pretty simple, but I would never have figured it out without Herb's help. I offered to pay Herb for his time, but he insisted that there was no charge, and that he was glad to help, and glad to save me the Saturday night service fee. I went and bought a replacement latch, and had the door working again without much trouble after that. Locks on Wheels is now my permanent locksmith for life! read more

From the reviews I see that Liz is great. But the person I spoke with today about replacing our locks was not only unhelpful but rude. Would not recommend them at all. read more

We just bought a home and needed our locks replaced. Based upon Yelp reviews, we found this company. They were punctual (actually a little early and we weren't home, but they sat and waited outside for us to arrive at our designated appointment time), and REALLY quick. When they got here I asked how long it would take..."about a half hour"....which included giving me 5 extra keys. I think they are a small company, probably just LIz and Herb - but man they are efficient! If I need any other lock replacements...EVER...I will go with these guys again. read more

We had recently bought a foreclosed property where the locks had been messed with and were looking to get four different doors re-keyed. I made an appointment to have Locks on Wheels come to the home and they gave me a 30 minute time frame of when they'd be there. None of that "Oh, we'll stop by sometime between 8am and 3pm" stuff. I was liking it already. When inquiring about the prices, I was told it would be about $50 for the service charge, $10 to re-key each lock, and $2 per copy of the keys. Very reasonable, if you ask me. Liz and Herb showed up and dove right into work. We ended up needing two sets of locks replaced and they had the exact ones in their van, new and ready to install. They worked efficiently as a team and were in and out, finishing 4 doors in 40 minutes. Amazing company, very charming, friendly folks who are clearly hardworking and good at what they do....and they do it well, without ripping you off. read more

I called as we locked ourselves out of our home. When I spoke to the operator, it sounded like a dispatch service mentioning that I will be getting a call from a person named Herb. The operator asked for my name and number but not my address. I asked if they needed my address but he assured me that it is not needed and that Herb will provide the cost along with getting my address. I never did get a call back from anyone. I waited for 30 minutes then decided to call another locksmith service. An hour passed and still no call while the other lock service came and already went. Unfortunately, lost me some time and these guys lost a customer. Take it for what it's worth but I give this a 1 star for poor customer service and follow up read more

Not sure how to star this review, but this was my experience with this company. I was locked out of my apartment, and this was the second locksmith that I called. The first company sent someone who was unable to pick the lock. I live in NW Portland. I called the dispatch, and they were very nice and helpful. They paged the on-call locksmith and Herb was on call. Herb was very nice, but he didn't want to drive from wherever he was to my apartment. So, he recommended that I call another service. He gave some recommendations, the first of which was the locksmith that was currently at my apartment failing at opening the lock. The second recommendation was closed. No services were rendered, but it was disappointing that the locksmith recommended I call another service. read more

Herb is awesome!! Reminds me of Hoss from Bonanza... Teddy Bearish and folksy.. Great work...Great people...Zero issues read more

Locks on Wheels - Herb in action!! - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

These guys did a fantastic job - a car break-in left us without a key to a locked closet in a vacation rental. They came out the next day at the only time that worked for me, did a great job in quick time. Made everything easier for me. Will definitely call again if we need anything having to do with keys. Thanks guys! read more

This is a great locksmith company. Very friendly, prompt, and reasonably priced. They were even able to deal with the locks on our tool boxes. You really don't need to look any further for your lock services. Just give them a call. read more

I recently moved into a new house and after taking off our door locks, bringing them to the hardware store, being told no one was available who could rekey our locks for us, and then (poorly) putting the locks back on our doors, we decided to call in some professionals to make sure everything was done properly--and I'm so glad we did! Working with the Locks on Wheels team was a pleasure from the beginning. Herb took my call to get my appointment set up (I wasn't in a huge rush), and provided excellent customer service. Then, Liz came out exactly on time, rekeyed the locks in hardly any time, replace a few issues I didn't even know we had with the locks (apparently they weren't doing us much good in the first place--yikes!), and gave some really great advice on what we can do to secure our garage door and save some money. All of this for a very reasonable price. I definitely recommend them! read more

Had such a kind and efficient experience working with Kevin from Locks on Wheels today! The whole job (rekeying 3 locks in different locations, and answering a handful of my questions) took just about 30 minutes. Really positive experience from start to finish, and the appointment fit right into the estimated time slot I was given last week. 10/10 would recommend this business. read more

I am so glad that I found this Locks on Wheels. After reading the reviews, called the number. Liz returned my call within a few minutes. We went over my situation and she gave me a few options. Now our side gate lock is fixed. They are truly sincere and full of knowledge on locks. Thank you so much. We will definitely have you on our speed dial. read more

Like the dummy I am I locked myself out of the house in a rainstorm with my wife at my side, she had the wrong keys so we called the locksmith. The locksmith was there in 30 mins got us in, in a jiffy . There number is with me at all times. Thank god I didn't leave my cell in the house also read more

Their service was equally efficient and courteous, wonderful overall! Liz came to our recently-purchased home to re-key it and make some spares and she was exceptionally nice and completed the job very fast. Locks on Wheels was great to work with from start to finish and I highly recommend them. read more

Arrived earlier than appointment time. Replaced non-functional dead-bolt and handle/lock, now keyed alike and, (unlike the previous) properly installed, and made five keys, all for $95. I consider that a bargain, and it all took about 45 minutes. She also left the old lock, as she said "So you know I'm not parting them out". Parting out a lock you recommended replacing never occurred to naive me as a way someone might cheat a customer, but it's clear that she doesn't need (or want) to cheat anyone. Call her with confidence that you will get professional service at a more than fair price. read more

I called Locks on Wheels when an old door lock for my front door locked itself and I had movers coming to get a China Hutch out. They were out to take care of it quickly and the service person was very professional. Thanks! read more

My 93 yr. old friend had lost a large bunch of keys. One to his cabin in Rhododendron. We made a time sensitive appt. to have a lock smith come out. Liz arrived on time and within just a few minutes had the door open. Our appt was at 9am. And by 9:23. (My friend is a stickler on times) we were leaving with a new deadbolt and 3 keys all for a little over 100 bucks. Oh, Liz also cut off two padlocks. No charge. I highly recommend this company. read more

These guys are great. Professional, prompt, reasonably priced and they did exactly what I needed them to do. I just bought a new home and had the entire house re-keyed. In less than an hour I had 7 locks that had previously been associated with 3 different keys reset to the same key. You don't always need a locksmith, but if you do I would recommend giving these guys a call. read more

We have been patrons of this fine, woman owned local business since 2002 when Liz came out to re-key our house. Since then, they've done two more houses and a business for us, including coming to our rescue after a couple of break-in's. We love Herb, too! Fast, friendly, reasonable service. This is our locksmith of choice for many reasons. Thanks, Liz and Team for always being so awesome! read more

I had my home re-keyed this week and was very pleased with the service. The guys showed up on time, fixed upside down locks, lubricated external items and explained to me how maintain them if/when they get moisture in them. They were fast and friendly! Very nice business. read more

Perfect service, Herb showed up right on time, checked out my home locks and changed them all to the same key. He didn't try to sell me anything I didn't need and in less than 30 minutes he was out of here leaving me a good supply of keys. Easy and efficient. read more

Wow! What a good experience. I work for a small medical practice, and after a suspicious incident- we decided to change all of our locks immediately. Locks on Wheels was absolutely the best choice, and I feel confident recommending them to anyone. I would never use another company! Liz Gaiser was truly professional, and kept our entire office at ease during an unsettling experience. read more

I had a problem with my condo's lock - Liz came over the next day to take a look. She took 30 minutes to try and fix the faulty lock, but it was un-repairable. She recommended a replacement, and didn't even charge me, since she hadn't fixed anything! Highly recommended! read more

The service couldn't have been better. read more

How can having your house rekeyed actually be a fun and pleasant experience? Locks on Wheels came out to rekey my entire house and it was like having my dad over to do a project: I actually had fun and learned something in the process. These folks are the "real deal". They really love what they do and it shows. Honestly, do not look any further for a locksmith. read more

KEVO: Herb is the only locksmith I could find in PDX to install my Bluetooth Kevo deadbolt. Not only did he know how to do it he wouldn't leave until my phone was fully working with the lock. He had to drill a new deadbolt hole in my $1200 wood door which I was nervous about but he did it expertly & it lines up perfectly. He also switched out a Baldwin deadbolt & copied keys on the spot. Tip: Be sure to download the Kevo app & create your account before he arrives, it can take awhile to download & you need a confirmation email to activate. read more
