Central Lock & Safe Reviews

Matthew Gress

A lovely gentleman came out and fixed my new door installs which were imprecisely done by the Home Depot installer company. After he left everything was as smooth as I've ever had locks in my life.

Sandra McAnany

Outstanding customer service for a lockout. The locksmith was Mike and he assisted with getting into my home at a fair price. I will be a repeat customer.

Neal Lewandowski

Great selection for home or business safes, as well as larger gun safes. Locksmith has tooling and experience to solve just about any situation. Delivery available, though you need to check on terms and limitations.

Thomas Carroll

As a walk-in, they repaired my Honda key (with a chip) and made a copy in less than 20mins for WAY less than a dealer had quoted me. Great local business, thanks!

Brian Deppe

They have just about any key blank that you can think of but the service is poor and the pricing is gouge-worthy. Place smells like an ashtray too.

Pat Wolfe

Nice to still have local shops. Accommodated our families needs in a timely manner. Price was reasonable considering all work was performed at the house including cutting multiple keys. Definitely will keep this company on my refer others to list.

Tony McCoy

Mike and Tyler have helped me with some big lock problems and they did such a great job.

Peter Lee

Very knowledgeable people.

Lucky Hook

They're very helpful and respectful

Brian Williams

They were able to duplicate a somewhat unusual boat ignition key in less than a minute. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Julie Ross

This company is great. We had Mark who came out & fixed our lock on our old door. The lock was orginal from 1923 when the house was build. Mark was efficient & reasonable. His work was perfect. Thank you so much.

I have a 37 year old cutaway van that has several different doors and compartments, all of which I didnt have keys for. When I took it to a different locksmith three weeks ago, they took photos of the locks, and have allegedly been doing research since to figure out how they can help me out. Tired of waiting for a response, and after someone referred me, I went yesterday to Central Lock and Safe. In less than 30 minutes, Mark and Tyler managed to rekey and duplicate every single one of the locks. They were cool and friendly, prices were very reasonable, and most importantly, they did a fantastic job. Ive found my locksmith for life, and if youre searching for one, search no more.

Peter Vlasyuk

Awesome friendly people pleasure to deal with

Mark Tesar

Cody was very professional and helped me get into my locked car.

Brian Crane

Looked them up for an old safe problem. Stopped by and five minutes later we had some advice on how to proceed. Friendly and knowledgeable about our old discontinued safe issue.

C Anderson

Great place to find those speciality keys and what not.. But the young guy that works in the front seems kinda rude and racist and the place reeked like cigarettes

Naomi Walker

Efficient and reliable ...

Dennis Thomas

Very helpful and met my needs. 100% satisfied.

Travis Frokjer

I have been a customer of Central Lock and Safe for over 15 years. I have used them for security & lock service. I also purchased a safe from them. They have always been professional and honest to work with. Recently, I had issues with my security system after a power outage. I called them and they were willing to come out but were able to walk me through the process to fix the issue. The system is know functioning properly.While in Central Lock and Safes showroom, I have witnessed Central Lock working with other customers on the phone and in person. They have been very professional and courteous in every instance.I would recommend Central Lock for your safe, security and locksmith needs.

Ron Mohr

If you're in a hurry dont come here! Always 1 person working front counter, always multiple people in here and phones ringing like crazy. They will start to help you than jump from phone to another customer before even completing your service. I have never had an issue with the quality of work just the time it takes

SANTIAGO CASTRO

Great service , very quick

L Dorsett

Came here to get a key blank cut for my car. The guy said my blank wouldnt fit in his machine and told me to try a dealership. Offered no help for my problem. I got it cut at another shop with the same machine.Apparently getting a car key that flips out of the fob (the kind almost all new cars have) cut is asking WAY TOO MUCH of the locksmiths in Minnesota.The next day I got it successfully cut at Apollo Locksmith in St.Paul for $5!!

Christie Algiers

They were able to make keys for me that I couldn't get anywhere else. Great lock selection. I will be back to order installation of some new locks. Reasonable installation prices quoted to me . Friendly and informative service.

Frank Mazzocco

Key wouldn't work in a door lock, gave me a quick fix over the phone. Did a repair for my daughter a couple weeks ago and help her save money with a used spare part. I had them do some lock work *years* ago and was satisfied. These guys are in business to help, not gouge.

Noah M. Johnson

This place was a lifesaver. I accidentally locked my boss's ancient file cabinet to which there was no key, and he was going to be back the next day. The first locksmith I called said it would be $50.00 and couldn't guarantee it would work. For $22.27, Central Lock & Safe made me three keys that would be most likely to work, and one of them fit the bill. This will be my only locksmith from now on.

Cheryl Price

Fast service and reasonable prices.

Andy Van

Wonderful service. I locked my keys in my car and the man that helped me was quick and very knowledgeable. It was done in under 5 minutes. The price was half of other companies as well. Would recommend to anyone!

MiKayla Handley

The gentlemen were very nice and understood what I was trying to accomplish, even without a good explanation from me. They are inexpensive but my locks now work better than they did before. Keys no longer stick and I don't have to jiggle to get my door open. Thanks guys!!

Jen Bellefleur

I couldn't imagine how anyone could move a 1000 pound safe, but Mike and Travis made it look easy! They were prompt, professional, and courteous and I recommend them to anyone with a seemingly impossible/heavy moving task. Thanks, guys!

Charles Fritz

I picked up the keys they had made for me and they called me and asked to me to return because it turned out they were able to make the keys for less money than they charged me at first and wanted to give me a refund.

Marc Asch

Top level professional locksmith. Very reasonably priced. VVery wide selection of safes, cash drawers, residential and commercial door locks. Great at servicing pad locks, copying keys and helping with options.

Faye S

They did a great job. We needed a lock cut off. They arrived early and got the job done very efficiently. Would recommend.

Luke Anderson

I've had several transactions with Central Lock and Safe over the last 6 months and I am never disappointed with their reliable and prompt service. These guys know their stuff. No B.S. here.

Jessie Howard

All lock needs

peter mcniff

These guys are the best in the business. Knowledgeable, thorough, friendly and they were on-time. Our security system works as it was intended now that we've found Central Lock & Safe and we now have the key system in place with redundant measures. We are customers for life.

Pavel Ushakov

Not the most affordable place, but helpful folks.

Joo Ree

I had my main door handle and deadbolt replaced on the day I took ownership of my first condo in late May. I watched the employee completely remove the old handle and deadbolt and put in a new one - it took 2 hours on a hot day, so I clearly remember what happened. Apparently, I was only charged for a re-key, not a replacement. I signed the invoice which stated as such. Remember, this was the day of closing on my condo, after I had already signed documents for hours. I did not review the employee's invoice notes for accuracy. A few weeks later, the door handle stopped latching, so now the deadbolt is the only thing standing between my home and the general public. I called Central Lock & Safe, and was told that the service record indicated a re-key only, not a replacement. The employee who installed it no longer works for the company, so my request for services was being determined based on the inaccurate invoice copy versus my memory. The person on the phone all but said I was making up the fact that I WATCHED the employee replace the handle and deadbolt in its entirety. I was told that there was nothing they could do, except charge me $60/hour plus a $60 consultation fee for them to even look at the handle to identify the problem. I will NEVER use this company again, and will warn all of my friends and family against using their services.

Sally Ngo

My truck hadn't opened in for months. I tried to wiggle the key in there and it broke off! I was desperate to get it fixed ASAP. I went to these guys and they got the key out in 2 seconds, cleaned and greased the lock, and got me up and running in under 5 minutes! My technician, Mike, explained why the lock got gunked up and told me how to prevent it in the future. These guys are great!

J. Cramer

Cool dudes down to earth and helpful

Dee West

Kinda on the spendy side to have a safe key made 23.00 for 2 small keys

Teresa Gowan

Great service, very kind, efficient, and arrived quickly.

Ryan Sebesta

The staff was great! Helped make a key I couldn't find anywhere else

Allison Thomas

An entire week of no keys, feeling quite lost as I stumbled into Central Lock & Safe. With my two friends by my side, we as a collective group of three college girls moseyed on into this lock establishment, immediately surrounded by large safes and a wall of keys. My initial thought: what do all of these keys open, to whom they belong? But, that is beside the point. I was worried I would be spending upwards of $1,000 dollars for my brand spanking hot off the press apartment key and car key combo (what do I know? I'm simply a 21-year-old college girl!) but alas, I walked out of there within minutes with two new keys and only ~$70 less rich. Beside excellent service, our main man Mike gave us some great advice: 'Trust a man, but don't rely on one.' Word Mike. Overall, 10/10 would recommend to all of my other drunk friends who lose their keys!!!

Dre Dre All Day

When i came there on the weekday the guy was great i thank him for the time he spent on helping me he even stayed after hours. Whoever works on Saturday mornings give very shitty coustmer service. He sound like he did not want to talk, the items i called about he kept telling i have to wait until monday and i could not have waited until then. He seemed like he wanted to hurry me off the phone.the phone call was no help at call.

Connor Curley

Very fast and helpful. Decoded my key in an instant to help solve an annoying problem.Great shop.

bob fillion

Rude customer service, as slow as I have ever seen in my life. Would highly recommend to stay away from this shitshow of a 'business'.

Nona Narvaez

Great service. I got a key copied in less than 5 minutes. Very friendly.

A Shu

Central lock & safe-Many red flags from early on. The break-ins have only continued and make a person suspect connections to the security company. When it failed before the warrenty was up, they lied and failed to honor the warrenty. It was an expensive, horrid ordeal.

Larry Wiler

Great Friendly Help!

Grabos Omar

Friendly and courteous staff.
