Elma Locksmith

I just bought a condo and needed to get my locks changed. I called just after 8am and asked if he could come between 9 – 10. He came right at 9:30 and changed all four of my locks while I went to the hardware store! Would highly recommend him, and would absolutely call on him again if needed.

I actually met him from a customer’s property. Seen his work and very detail which I like. He also gave a good deal. So definitely recommended.

We found Mel on Unilocal and the reason why we called him vs. other locksmiths because of his great reviews.
He’s been in the business for 6 years and his knowledge about his craft is evident in his experienced.
He’s easy to talk to.
Cares about his customers.
Knows his job 100%.
Loves to help people.
On top of that he gave us a good deal.
If you’re looking for a trustworthy locksmith look no further. Mel is your main man.
Call him, you won’t regret it.

Mel was awesome. Quick, efficient and even pointed out problems with my existing lock.
I’m going to have him come out again to do a custom lock job for me. Highly recommended.

Excellent and prompt service, nice guy, and overall great work. Definitely call on him again for our security needs.

This guy is amazing! Always comes through for me. I have used him exclusively and he continues to give me great service!!! Thank you for being prompt, honest, reliable and affordable.

I highly recommend Mel of Elma Locksmith. Professional, Honest and Compassion are his KEY in serving his clients. I appreciate your help with my Buick Enclave spare key…

I had been having a problem with the lock on my front door… it was difficult to put the key in and I was worried I’d break it. I called Elma Locksmith, spoke with Mel, and he was able to come to my house within 15 minutes. He was very kind, professional, and knowledgable. Mel explained how he fixed my lock, why he did what he did, and what I could do in the future to prevent it from happening again. I will definitely be calling again when future issues come up! Thanks Mel!

Was very helpful and nice, even fixed my deadbolts so they weren’t so tight when trying to lock the doors. Would definitely hire again.

Elma Locksmith came to our new house this morning to replace all the locks. Mel, the owner was on time and very detailed to ensuring our locks were properly replaced. He was easy to get a hold of and communicates well. He’s also just a super nice guy. We’re happy to support and recommend his business.

mel from elma locksmith’s is a good guy who is extremely punctual and reliable. he changed locks for us and fitted a lock/​handle on a newly constructed door; he did so professionally and tidily. we would not hesitate to use his services again and would recommend him highly.

We had a break in at our house and I called a number of locksmiths to try to get things re-​secured in short order — Elma was one of them.
Mel from Elma made an extra effort to help us out since we were in a bind, squeezing us in at the end of the day, just after hours (6−630pm).
He was nice enough to indulge all of our questions about how good each of our locks were, how they could or could not be compromised and of course rekeying them all.
I know that we were a little high maintenance that day, feeling quite insecure after the break in. I have to say that more than just the rekeying of the locks, Mel’s explanations really helped put our minds at ease.
Despite being friendly and on time, his prices were also extremely reasonable. I would highly recommend him.

My lock failed one night after work. It was dark, I had no help and of course
my cell battery was running down. I used Unilocal to call the first locksmith on the list near my house but he was busy and recommended Elma Locksmith. What Luck! The owner, Mel showed up within 20 minutes and very quickly repaired my lock after giving me a very fair estimate. Mel really knows his stuff and he’s a nice guy! He offered some solid advice on different lock styles and when I have more time I plan to have Elma Locksmith return and upgrade my locks. Thanks for the great service.

Excellent experience! I needed the bolt on one door fixed and another lock converted so it only required a key on one side. And I wanted both locks re-​keyed to an existing key. I called shortly before noon expecting to set an appointment in the future but Mel said he could be at my house in 15 minutes. He arrived when he said he would and resolved the issues. He checked to make sure I didn’t need more locks re-​keyed, and he noticed a damaged doorknob and replaced that as well. The price was reasonable. (Love that he is set up to take mobile payments). The job was well done and with great service. If I need another locksmith Mel is my guy.

I’m so happy we found Mel. I highly recommend him and he didn’t even fix our lock! Let me explain:
We have an older house with one original door and lock — a lock that is more popular on the East Coast, it turns out. The lock stopped working correctly and we contacted Mel for help. He doesn’t specialize in that particular type of lock but instead of leaving it at that, he went out of his way to research local locksmiths who could help us with locks that required older parts and unique detail. He called promptly and said that he wanted to make sure we were taken care of and received the help/​service we needed. And we did call the other locksmith who did a great job — thanks to Mel.
Mel is professional, prompt, genuine, and we’ll call him for all future issues on our modern locks.

Amazing service deserving of all the stars!
I had called in the morning just as they opened and needed a key taken out of my ignition. He said he could be there at 1030a, which was fine by me. I called back to double check the price and he said he could actually make it out at the time of the call. He was very professional and knowledgeable in removing the key! I have his business card and his phone contact in my phone under «Elma Locksmith» if I should ever need him again.

Mel saved the day this weekend when we got locked out of our house. He got to our place right away and even with the old doorknob we had, he got us in the house quickly. He was also very upfront about prices and what to look out for when trying to find locksmiths. Very trustworthy!
Thanks Mel!

I would refer Mel (Elma Locksmith) to anyone in need of a locksmith. He is extremely professional, honest, reliable and helped us very promptly.
We recently had a our 1^st baby and while rushing out of our house for dinner, we realized we locked ourselves out. My husband remembered he called Elma Locksmith for one of his patients at work and decided to give him a call. Mel said he could get to our house within 15 minutes to help us. He arrived on time and took all but a couple of minutes (literally), to unlock our door.
We chatted with him for a bit and he gave us honest and helpful information regarding calling locksmiths for quotes and how to ask the right questions should we decide to call others in the future. Topic was brought up because my husband called Mel first but wanted to still call around to other places to get quotes to find the most affordable (we’re both on disability & didn’t want to spend hundreds), but ended up deciding to go with Mel because it was very affordable. Mel just shared the «tricks» that some companies use when people call to ask for quotes and then charge way more once they complete their work. We really appreciated his honesty and he was very nice to talk to.
Hopefully we won’t lock ourselves out again, but if we ever need a locksmith, we’ll be calling Mel!

Mel did a great job. We bought a new home and needed all locks rekeyed. Mel was quick to respond to our appointment request, he helped us out by coming out on a Saturday morning, and he did 5 locks (3 of which he had to pick) in about an hour.
Since it was an older house, some of the door hardware was «quirky». There was one door where the door wouldn’t lock and Mel checked it out. It only took him 5 minutes to figure out what the issue was, fix it, and get the door to lock properly.
Would definitely recommend Mel’s services. If we ever get locked out, we would definitely call him.

Honest, Reliable, and Efficient!
I lost my only spare of car keys. First place I thought of calling was the dealership. Extremely expensive and I did not want to pay additional towing fees.
I was referred to Mel from a local locksmith. Mel answered right away and provided me with a direct quote over the phone. He said he would make it to my car in 30min — no kidding he was at my home in 30min. He programed the key and sold me a spare. Thank you Mel, I made it to work on time!
