"Smart lock retrofit on our Victorian rowhouse. They preserved the original brass plate and kept the period look. The quote they texted me matched the invoice exactly."
Patrick S., Dupont Circle
"Lost the only key to a 2019 Tesla. Mobile dispatch came out, programmed a new smart key in the driveway, and the dealer would have charged twice as much."
Laura H., Cleveland Park
"Embassy administrative office needed a restricted-keyway system. DC Local Locksmith handled the audit, the install, and the credential paperwork. Discretion the whole way."
Tom R., Kalorama
