Stopped by a local business to check on replacing 3 door k***s. I ended up duplicating 25 keys plus the 3 k***s, and programmed a Ford F-150 before I left!!

I had a vehicle lockout in a scary haunted cemetery today.
Okay, it was in a Lenox cemetery, daylight, and not really scary at all.
Thanks for calling Downing Lock & Key!!

This is the first time I've seen a deadbolt below the door handle.
After taking a closer look, I realized the door had been hung upside down!! 🤷‍♂️
I considered using a wrap and relocating it to the proper place, but the door would not allow it.
The handle practically fell apart in my hands.
All new hardware for this and two other doors.

Working pool side dreaming of beach life!! 😎
The locks in these doors had completely corroded from the damp, humid, chlorinated air in the pool area of a local fitness center.
Brand new locks pinned with master and life guard keys.

I would like to give a big shout out to BaLu & Co for suggesting that I bring in some business cards since so many people stop in their new building looking for a locksmith!!

If you are looking for great flower arrangements done by great people, as well as small gift ideas, this place is definitely worth checking out!!

If you're looking for a great, friendly locksmith, you just found one!!

Thanks again BaLu & Co. !!
