Customer Reviews
PJ Tabit
Had a great experience with Area Safe & Lock. Darren showed up as scheduled - he fixed the problem with door knob mechanism and another problem with the dead bolt that had annoyed me for months but I hadn't even thought to mention. Plus the price was extremely reasonable. Will definitely be calling them in the future!

I've used Area Safe & Lock a few times now and they're always very professional and friendly and honestly go out of their way to make sure you get exactly what you're looking for. Services include: replacement of an exterior door handle / deadbolt /door knocker, reykeying of locks and adding a new peep hole in the door. Highly recommend.

Excellent service from start to finish
I had a wonderful experience with this company. Junior from Customer Service was incredibly helpful and clear from the very beginning. He explained the whole process in a professional and friendly way, which gave me a lot of peace of mind.
The technician, Shepard, came to change the lock and did an outstanding job. He was respectful, responsible, and efficient—he got everything done quickly and with great attention to detail.
I’m very happy with the service I received and would absolutely hire them again in the future. Highly recommended!

Area Safe & Locke Service scheduled an appointment to install at my home a Yale YRD touchscreen deadbolt with WIFI, wrap kit, lever, door viewer/knocker and a deadbolt on my exterior patio gate. The technician was very professional and he ensured my door locks were installed to ensure security and walked me through how to use the deadbolt and touchscreen locks manually and remotely. Excellent, efficient and friendly customer service that I highly recommend!
