  • The panic bar feels loose or wobbly
  • The latch does not engage or release properly
  • The door fails to close or lock correctly

Grateful to have found these guys! We happened to stumble on it while going to another locksmith that couldn't help us with chipped keys. I went ahead and added a remote start key fob to my order since I was there. Prices were reasonable , definitely beating out dealership pricing, and conveniently located near I10 on West Ave. Highly recommend.
