Alex came to our home in Cole Valley to install two keypad locks as replacement for old bolt locks. He brought the replacement locks and did a great job. He also repositioned an existing lock on our front door so it wouldn’t stick. Great guy, reliable and good to work with. We would use him for any lock needs now or in the future.
