He came to my apartment the day after I called, and used several tools in an effort to remove the stub of the key. It took some perseverance, but he got the key out! I found him a pleasure to work with - he explained the estimated cost ahead of time, showed up promptly, has a delightful personality, and gave my dog some loving attention when she kept wanting to get close and "help"! I won't hesitate to contact him again should I end up in another pickle!

Jackson Key Works (Jim) came out to my cottage in Hillsdale County (over 20 miles from his shop),…read moreand replaced 2 outside door handles, and installed 2 brand new electronic deadbolts from scratch. Then he keyed them all alike, using my house key from our city residence. I was very impressed with his professionalism, and his kindness. He did a great job and was very reasonable. I tried using Home Advisor and also Angi for this job, and they never showed up. Turns out they are owned by the same owner, and they never communicated with me, despite my repeated calls and emails. So I made 2 round trips to cottage (180 miles each) for nothing. Jim at Jackson Key Works was local and responsive, along with probably saving me a couple of hundred dollars over Angi or Home Advisor. Well done Jim!!

I'm leaving this review because my experience with A1 Lock and Safe left me feeling taken advantage…read moreof, despite my best efforts to communicate clearly and act in good faith. I was locked out of my home and called to see if they could help. I was told they were about 30 minutes away and that I would receive a call 10 minutes before they headed my direction. Before receiving any follow up call, I was able to get into my home on my own. I immediately called back as a courtesy to let them know they did not need to come out. At that point, I was told they were five minutes away and that I would still need to pay because they were already "here." This directly contradicted what I had been told earlier. During the same conversation, I was given multiple different timelines, first that they were five minutes away, then that they were ten minutes away, while also being told they were "already here." The conversation quickly became uncomfortable. The person I spoke with raised their voice in frustration and insisted I pay for a service I did not receive. When I pushed back respectfully and explained that I had called before being notified they were en route, he framed a 50 percent charge as a kindness. Wanting to end the tense exchange, I paid. I regret that decision. I feel sick knowing I paid for something I did not need or receive, especially when the situation was caused entirely by poor communication. This experience felt less like customer service and more like pressure. I cannot recommend this company. Clear communication and fairness matter, especially in stressful situations like being locked out of your home, and this experience fell short on both.

Those are pretty good rates - this isn't the first time I've had to do something like this.
