All City Locksmith, LLC
Predatory and dishonest locksmith fails to quote price and slaps customer with shockingly high bill

I recently had an emergency situation where I needed my locks changed and my garage door opener reprogrammed. I called my usual locksmiths, but they were unavailable until the following day.

I found All City Locksmith, LLC on the internet and they were available to come the day I needed them. I was quoted $69 to come out, but the owner would not give me a price quote over the phone. I pulled $300 from my checking acct thinking it would be more than enough for the lock changes. I have one lock on my front door and two locks on my garage door (dead bolt and knob). When the owner arrived, he tried to up sell me on locks that only his company are able to key apparently, for $140 per lock (x3). He explained that normal locks are junk, etc. I couldn't afford $140 per lock, so I opted for the $90 per lock price (the junk). He offered to supply keys to me at $22 per key. I told him this was ridiculous and that keys, at least one, should be included in the $90 per lock price, so he agreed graciously to throw those in. He asked me if I wanted all the locks keyed the same, so I could use the same key for each entry. I said yes. He did not mention that he charged $90 per lock to do this. So, long story short, for reprogramming my garage door, which took 2 seconds and for changing three locks and giving me two keys I paid $468. I had to put the other $168 on my credit card.

This is the most expensive lock change I have ever heard of. I usually go with Liberty Lock and Key in Las Vegas. They are wonderful. This guy was rude and totally dishonest. He preys on those who are in bad situations. Stay away! I pay my bills, but I have vowed to warn everyone possible about this scammer!
