Fast, professional, and reasonable price. Called multiple locksmith companies and this was the only one that had the experience and tools. Great people, and Mr Jantzen went the extra mile for something small. Will be my first call.

Customer Reviews
Stephen Pruitt
Great guys, very knowledgeable and helpful. They went the extra mile to do a job others didn't even consider or have the skillset. 10/10
Alessandra Jacques
These guys are great. I have an old front door lock that isn’t easily replaceable, and the locksmith (I think his name was Philip) was super patient and friendly and got my door working again quickly. We always use Jantzen for our lock needs!
Lizza Batista
Fast and super friendly! Our locksmith Philip was very knowledgeable, super friendly, and was able to explain very easily why the locks were getting stuck. I called to get service and within 2 hours the locks are working. Thank you for continuously keeping our school safe and up to date!
Kevin Meek
Mr. Jantzen personally came to my home to repair a very old corbin lock, which is a Baldwin style mortise lock installed in a mahagony door. Other companies said to abandon the lock and install a new.
He took his time and rebuilt the broken part and even made a custom part from his inventory of magic parts in the truck. It is as good as new.
Thank you so much Mr. Jantzen.
