Long story short, I discovered while on a…read morecross-country flight that a repairman accidentally locked both locks (not just my electronic lock), and the only key to the bottom lock was inside my condo. I contacted them on Yelp, explained the situation, and they were able to meet my mother (after verifying I was the legitimate owner) within an hour. Not only did they unlock the door but they immediately made copies of that bottom lock key The full service was less than $100 and they were extremely responsive and worked with me to get what they needed while I was literally on a plane hundreds of miles away. Couldn't recommend more!

Petrone Locksmith came in with the most reasonable price so I went with them. I checked one of the keys in all 3 doors and verified those worked and went about my days. The new tenant came in and had trouble with one of the doors, as did the keys I gave to my husband and daughter. I contacted Petrone, told them that I wanted to get over and check the keys just to make sure it wasn't a "you"ser error and they responded timely, letting me know to keep them posted because they would have no problems coming back out to make sure all the keys were in working order. Well, it wasn't a "you"ser error. I could get one key to work but it took too much effort. Reached out to let them know and they were quick to come back stating that they guaranteed their work. This is a small, woman owned, local business and I would strongly recommend them for their services! Because they STAND behind their work and that is so important these days. As long as they're in business, I will continue to use them for every re-key I need. Thank you Mary for being super responsive and honest. It does not go unnoticed! I appreciate you! April Brown

Failing that (and if it's cold outside at an indecent hour to call on those with spare keys), call Pop-a-Lock. They were among the first to respond to my Yelp request for an estimate, and the locksmith arrived sooner than their estimate. Corey was professional and worked quickly. Every estimate I had received was in the $70-75 range, so at $69.95, Pop-a-Lock was competitive, and no upsell was attempted. All told, $75 to send a card. Don't forget to call your mother, folks!

I'm terrible with names, but I believe his name was Bob?...he was the one who showed up and not only installed 3 new deadbolts and hardware in a quick amount of time, but also gave me some advice on maintenance and small things that may come up that would be an easy fix on my own over time (such as, if the thumb strike on the door handle were ever to start jiggling, etc...). That may seem obvious, but for me, let me know he was going above and beyond. To top it all off, they were THE most reasonably priced locksmith's that I contacted. Reasonable price without sacrificing any service, and if anything, went above and beyond. I really suggest using them in the RVA area if you need a locksmith!

Okay... no harm done, but this should be a 2-star review…read more Be aware that Angelia's is ONLY a mobile service. I don't see any mention of it on his Yelp page. It's a guy in a truck who'll come to your house or car or whatever, and that's awesome... but he should be CLEAR about it so people don't waste their (and his) time with other needs. I have 3 new, uninstalled, locks to re-key and called to get Angelia's address so I could bring them by. To his credit, he told me up front it's a $65 charge just to show up, then a nominal re-keying charge per lock. I told him the locks were still in their packages, and that I didn't want to pay for travel, and he informed me it's just a mobile locksmith, no office/workshop where I could bring the locks. The rates seemed fair, and I don't begrudge the guy his travel charge, but I didn't need or want to pay for mobile locksmith service and wouldn't have called him had I known there's no there there. Then I asked him if he could recommend another good locksmith, a colleague or someone he's friend's with perhaps, with a storefront. He laughed with unconcealed derision, and said, "You think I'd send business to a competitor? I don't _have_ any friends. MY FRIEND IS MONEY. You can look it up yourself." I said, Yep... you're right. I will. He wasn't intentionally offensive about it, but I'll never call him again. He's got no sense of serving the needs of his (potential) customers and I wouldn't want him opening my car door. I've had vendors refer me to their competitors when my needs didn't fit their services, even when there might be some competitive overlap. I always respect a business that does that, and I do it with my own business... but this guy? It's all about the CASH, baby. Again... I didn't use his service, and he may be the best locksmith ever to walk the earth. The third star is a gift given his brushoff treatment.
