80% of our business is through word of mouth and repeat customers.
Calgary's oldest family run locksmith company. Our
father, uncle, grandfather were locksmiths. We learnt from the best. A family
of locksmiths for your family or business.
we are preferred locksmiths for
- Landlords and property managers, because we have
managed rental properties and know what it is like.
- Medical, dental and veterinary clinics, because we are
Alberta Blue Seal candidates.
- Animal rescue foundations, because we are pet lovers
and provide non-profit discounts.
- Small business owners, because we are small business
owners ourselves and can relate to the challenges. Our billing is simple
and straightforward, and we will watch out for your bottom line and do our
best at reliable and smart fixes.
- Home owners, because we have backgrounds in carpentry
and renovation, and are good at fixing up wonky (a New Zealand
colloquialism) doors that do not close or lock well.
- Single person households who do not feel safe. A lot
of our customers are in the same boat and we are good at finding simple
guerrilla ways to lock down your place so bad people do not get in.
- Distressed spouses getting out of a relationship,
because we are respectful of such situations and care to help.
- Old chinese restaurants, because we have experience
working on old greasy broken locks, and also love chinese food.
- Certain hipster restaurants.
- People who lock keys in their car, because we have
locked our keys in our cars too, twice this year. It happens.
Your locks will be treated as if they were our own. All will work smoothly
and stand the test of time. We repair old locks as much as possible instead
of installing new ones, and that saves you money. We are not afraid of hard
problems because we have seen all sorts.
Craftsman Healthy Lock Guarantee.

Did a fine job covering the installation and upgrading of the security

The 1992 Yellow Pages ad is on our
front page. From back when people
received heavy yellow phone books every year. Though our rekeys are not $5
anymore, we still are as friendly as we were then, mastering the fine art of
tuning locks through years of service.
