However, there is a phenomenal locksmith that I used yesterday with the same name. Their website is:
The man who arrived was on time, professional and pleasant. He picked the lock on my padlock so I could open the unit and fetch the key (lost the other one) The price was exactly as quoted on the phone ($ 95 for the service visit). Other locksmiths I called quoted me $ 150 for the service visit.

Scam artists. My wife and I left without a house key on a Sunday night. I was having difficulty tracking down our apartment’s after-​hours service request person, but I knew that the fee charged by our apartment building for after-​hours lockouts as $ 50. So, I called these guys. I asked the «dispatch» guy how much the service generally ran. He said it was $ 29 up front (service call fee) plus labor. I asked him how much labor usually ran. He said $ 19 or so and that the total would be about $ 45-​$ 50. Since that was basically what our apartment manager charged, I asked for a technician to come. The technician arrived within 15 minutes as promised. He had his tools and started working the lock. He asked us if we knew the pricing and I repeated what I was told over the phone by the dispatch guy. He confirmed the $ 29 service call fee and said labor was additional. He then said this particular lock wouldn’t be easy to open. He had his tools in the lock when he said it would be $ 215 (or $ 250) to open the door. I told him to stop immediately and leave. He started to hem and haw about trying to see if he could offer a discount. I called the dispatch guy and got the runaround — he told me to bargain with the technician and see what price he could do it for. The technician was still looking at the door and I again told him to leave. He said he was trying to help and would see if he could do it for $ 150. I told him again to leave and that I could go across the street to a hotel and stay the night for less.
Complete scam artists.
