Perfectionists! That’s the only way I could describe John and his amazing team from Expert Locksmith Services. The security guard had failed to turn up at the office that day and hadn’t handed out the keys to anyone. That meant, all the employees were locked out of the premises. Thankfully, I called Expert Locksmith Services and they arrived right on time to open up the lock. If not for them, I would have had to send the employees back home and lose an entire day’s work. Best locksmith in Skokie , IL…

I can't recommend this Expert Locksmith Services enough. Jay is honest and affordable about his pricing, prompt to appointments, intelligent, fun to chat with while he works, and you can just tell is a sincere, nice, really good guy. He's one of the few businesses I recommend without hesitation and sometimes without even prompting to anyone I know who's just moved into a new place or is having any kind of lock issue. He's done two units and the main doors in my building so far, and is the go-to guy for me with any lock / door / security issues.

If I could give 10 stars I would! My situation was a sticky one and let's just say that John was incredibly professional, reliable, empathic, and 100% solid! What could have been a nightmare - went soooo much smoother because he did what he said he would... Thank you John and the Expert Locksmith Services Team, you are all super heroes in my book!!

Is it weird I almost want to get locked out again so I can call Lockbusters? Yeah, my experience was that great. After coming home at 2am beers may or may not have been involved, I soon realized that a lock on my door that I didn't have a key for had decided it didn't like being taped down, and chose to unlock itself at that very inopportune moment. That next morning, kicking the door in with my boots, attacking it with pink screwdrivers and attempting to scale the fire escape all failed. Defeated, I looked up a lock smith online to come rescue me. I called Expert Locksmith Services and reqwest a service the tech called me right back, told me he would be there in 20 minutes. He was at my apartment right on the dot and busted my door open in literally less than 2 min. I was sorta embarrassed at how easily he did it though he assured me the lock had definitely flipped. For a little extra he sorted me out with a new lock and keys in less than 3 minutes and also fixed my sticky door knob. 5 minutes TOTAL I was back in my apartment with my feet up and had also gotten to check off a niggly to-do off my apartment repair list. No muss, no fuss and an A+ experience to cap off what had been a pretty shizzy night of homelessness. I wouldn't call or recommend anyone else. Thanks, Expert Locksmith Services.

I needed my locks replaced (turns out my neighbor had the same very same locks--imagine that!) but I have a crazy busy schedule and Techi was willing to come over late in the evening to accommodate my needs. He gave me all the possible options but didn't push for higher priced items and even said that some of the higher options weren't better options. He even helped out when my sensitive smoke alarms started going off because of my cooking dinner, lol. Tech flexibility, honesty, and kindness earn him five stars. Call them if you will need a locksmith in: Skokie , IL Best service in town 847-713-5692.

Great service from Expert Locksmith Services. I needed a lock repaired and even though it wasn't urgent they were able to come out the same day. The locksmith was fast, professional, and did the job right. The price seemed fair. I would definitely use Expert Locksmith Services again!

I literally have nothing bad to say about these Expert Locksmith Services. My roommate and I just moved into a new place in Skokie , IL and wanted to get an extra dead bolt added to our door. I filled out the form on the Expert Locksmith Services website and within 20 minutes Shon had emailed me and called me. He was really chill about working around my crazy schedule and was able to come to our place on Saturday, after I had been in touch on Thursday. When he came to our apartment he gave us the whole rundown of all of our options and was very honest and straight forward with us about what he thought we needed--he wasn't trying to sell us something we didn't need. He was at our place for about 45 minutes but most of that was because my roommate and I kept talking to him. Not only is he amazing at his job, he's super personable and charming--not exactly something you expect from your typical locksmith. To sum up, USE THESE GUYS! So glad we did.

Expert Locksmith Services has a 5-star rating for a reason. I called them this morning to rekey two doors in my house, and they were able to send a locksmith within the hour. The person answering the phone was very polite and helpful, and it was very easy to set up my appointment and get my questions answered. John was the locksmith that arrived, and he was polite, knowledgable, and worked very quickly and efficiently. Seriously, this was absolutely a five-star experience. I'm really glad that these are the folks i called.

AMAZING! Like everyone else online, Edwardo came to the rescue and and I thought he was exceptional. I locked myself out of an office at work. When I called him for a quote, he asked that I take a picture of the lock and door and text it to him so he could assess the situation and call me back. WOW. A locksmith who receives texts? I was impressed with just that! He called me back within minutes. Even though it was a hardcore MultiTLock, he said he'd tried to do it for the minimal cost of $59 and try to do as little damage to the lock and the door as possible so that I could not incur more costs. He suggest that we just start there.WOW again. It was not an emergency situation and Edwardo said someone would be by in a couple of hours. I didn't even notice the time and HE CALLED to follow up with me and apologized for the delay. Third WOW. He came and resolved in the problem in less than 2 minutes! No new lock needed and no damage to the door. He even took credit cards and charged it right away and emailed me the receipt within minutes. Every service in world should run their company like Edwardo: COURTEOUS, COMMUNICATIVE, HONEST, MODERN, and RELIABLE. This company is a rare gem. So nice to know that there are people in the Skokie , IL that take pride in what they do and actually care! Thanks, Expert Locksmith Services.

It goes without saying, that finding the best amidst countless others can be quite a daunting task. And when it comes to locksmith services, the bitter experiences I’ve had with them are far too many to narrate. Thankfully, I stumbled upon Expert Locksmith Services’s website http://www.Seattle.Neighborhood-Locksmith-Store.com around a month ago. I was desperately in a need for a spare key to hand out to my friend and called the first firm I found online. Edward, the guy sent to my place, was one of the most talented locksmiths I’d ever come across. He got the job done in minutes and charged me next to nothing for it. Extremely happy with their service and pricing! My only regret is not having discovered their services earlier! If you live in and around Skokie , IL, Expert Locksmith Services is your go-to locksmith.
