I hired Ross to install new locks on the exterior doors of my new home. I was very pleased with the level of service and hard work that was performed. I felt very confident in his knowledge and work, and I am so glad I chose him. He far exceeded my expectations. He even fixed a door that was sticking without me having to ask. I will certainly use him again in the future if needed. He was fantastic!

Very professional, fast and reliable. I was looking to reprogram my car keys and Ross was very helpful and trustworthy, while other companies were trying to rip me off with double the price..

I have searched and searched for a good locksmith. Something important to me as a business owner is someone family-owned, readiness, quality, availability and affordability. Ross was not only personable but able to get out to us and our vehicle in the most timely manner ever. I appreciate his service, and he was able to supply me with not only 1 new key but 2 for our car that my 1yr old son tossed in the trash (I believe)! I will hopefully not need to use him again, but if so, I will and will tell many others about his great service. Thank you!

So, I spoke to Ross; after being the 5th locksmith in the Huntersville area I contacted, he fielded questions like a pro. He even offered to provide a consultation free of charge for my unique issue.
I have a Coleman pop-up camper that has a T-handle lock that has come unseated and I no longer have a key for the lock. So, my options were to open up the mechanism all together or swap out the cylinder.
Once I shared some pictures of my lock, he recognized there might be a few solutions. My lock is still not fixed, but of the 5 locksmiths in Huntersville, he has been the most helpful and responsive. I recommend him as of now and will follow up with another review once his work is completed.

Sent a request for a quote through Yelp. Ross got back to me very quickly and made the time to get to me today. He went above and beyond, and even looked at a couple things for me besides the job I asked him to do. Prompt, courteous and cleaned up after himself – can’t ask for any better! I highly recommend contacting Ross for any locksmith/security needs.

Ross from Guardian Lock and Security came to my rescue! I forgot my keys as I left the house. He was there quickly and had the door open in just a few minutes, at reasonable price.
Very nice and professional!

I don’t review often. Readers, I know you don’t know me, but this is an unbiased, unsolicited review. This business provided the best service I have ever experienced and here’s why. I just moved into a new house, and typically, I just go out and replace all the locks myself. This time, I decided to rekey the existing locks to a single key. On the initial call, Ross from Guardian Lock and Security very clearly explained what rekeying entailed, required and cost. He also gave me information about replacing the locks myself, so that I could compare the two options and make the best decision. I was sold on rekeying. From there, Ross simply and effectively continued the clear and professional communication, including what to expect with the appointment and that he would call 45 mins before arrival to confirm. When he arrived, he reviewed what he would be doing, in what order, that he would have to do the keying in his truck so as to expect round trips between truck parked outside and my home. The appointment took about 90 minutes, so I appreciated that I didn’t have to wonder where he was or what was going on. He tested everything and then had me verify everything worked. Flawless. I mean this was the most thoughtful and caring service I’ve ever received. From a normal, well-mannered human being. So refreshing. I wish I had more doors to service but if ever I do I will not for a second hesitate to use Guardian Lock and security.

Very professional company! Locksmith arrived on time and was very knowledgeable about the particular locks we have in our home. Went above and beyond just changing out the locks to show us how to program an existing electronic lock. We couldn’t be more pleased with the locksmith and this company! Great value for the price!

Ross was fantastic helping us install a pesky nest lock. Even during the initial call, he tried to walk through a solution to the issue. He genuinely wanted to give us the fairest experience and try and save us a call out fee. Technology got the better of us, so Ross came out WITHIN THE HOUR – not as an emergency, but because he had availability. He was incredibly patient with figuring out our new home WiFi, making sure we understood the way the lock works, that the existing lock wasn’t going to jam in fluctuating weather and what to look out for from his experience. Took the time to stay to make sure to test everything and make sure it was working properly. Honestly, one of the best locksmiths. Not patronizing, not over-charging – but incredibly helpful, patient, and totally willing to go above and beyond. Will definitely work with him again, can’t recommend him and his work enough.

Great service and explanation of the work performed getting 4 locks all keyed together. Deadbolts, knobs, and sliding glass door all work great! Best prices I found when looking at other high-rated professionals.

Guardian Lock and Security installed security upgrades on our doors and new locks. Ross did a great job and was extremely thorough, polite and professional. I highly recommend this company and will use them again in the future. I’ve also added them to my “go to” and “recommend” lists for friends, co-workers and family.

My company just used Guardian Lock and Security for a key-card system for our new building. Ross did a fantastic job! He made sure I understood the software that comes with the system, spending as much time with me as I needed, until I felt comfortable. He made sure the system met our needs and that we understood our options and its capabilities. He went above and beyond the scope of the job and even picked up on some things that we, as the customer, had not noticed or thought of. He was very thorough and a pleasure to work with! I would highly recommend using this company.

If you need to rekey your home, Guardian Lock and Security is the way to go! Ross was professional and honest, as our locks were easier to rekey than he anticipated over our phone call and HE initiated a price adjustment to reflect this. We were so happy with his service. I would highly recommend and plan to use this company again for keying/security needs.
Danielle C.

Very professional and excellent attention to detail. Offered a 30-day warranty with the assurance that he would stand by his work. It was a very good experience.
Robin D.

Great service! Very professional. Fast. Would definitely recommend using Ross for all of your locksmith needs.
Sharien A.

I would absolutely recommend Ross and Guardian Lock and Security for any lock needs. We needed the locks in our home re-keyed and Ross was very responsive and was available to travel to Fort Mill within the week. Communication was great, gave a fair price with efficient and thorough service. He took time to walk us through the house and check every lock twice over and provided additional insight on the doors/locks we had in the home.
Rob Z.

Ross is a top-notch professional. He is reliable, helpful, and kind. The work was completed in a timely manner and reasonable. I would recommend him and their company to anyone looking for a locksmith. Thank you!

Ross did an excellent job installing a new smart lock on my door. He ran into some alignment issues with my very old door, but he was able to quickly fix the issues and get the lock working perfectly. Will be using again in the future for any lock and security needs.
Vanessa Z.

Ross did an excellent job with exchanging the locks on my new home and he certainly exceeded my expectations! I am very pleased with his work. He was so nice and informative! I wish I had other jobs for him to do because that’s how much I enjoyed working with him. He deserves every one of these 5 stars and I wish I could give more! Another extremely satisfied customer 🙂
Jacqueline W.

Ross was awesome, was able to look up the information online & troubleshoot the issue to resolution for my smart keypad lock and gave me some future recommendations
KoKo R.

Quick response, excellent service and very professional. Also offered to refer some items to me and come back if I experienced any problems. Pricing seemed comparable or even a little cheaper depending on the amount of locks being replaced. I also like the fact that license info was included up front.
Jan J.

The project was completed with precision and efficiency. The technician followed best practice and went the extra mile by sanitizing all surfaces, providing an overall excellent customer service experience.
Toni W.

Ross was knowledgeable, responsive and delivered quality work on time. He pointed out a few additional needs which truly helped me and my family to be more secure as well. I highly recommend him.
Robert S.

Ross is the nicest human! Professional, timely, and so incredibly kind. Locking your keys out is the worst feeling but his kindness helped alleviate some of the pain LOL. He was quick, well-priced, and went above & beyond!!!!! I saved his card; I will never call anyone else! I will recommend him to all my friends! You will be so thankful you used him, so don’t hesitate! What a blessing he was! 10/10, thanks so much, Ross!!

Ross, owner of Guardian Lock and Security, provides services that are outstanding and excellent. Ross fixed a patio (courtyard gate) doorknob. It was a challenging job, but Ross went beyond and above the call of duty to fix the problem. He exceeded my expectations. I called Ross and he came out within a few hours. Excellent communication and follow through. I received a very fair price and got my invoice electronically. Very efficient. Very thorough – paying attention to details. Knowledgeable and expert skills. He knows how to solve the issue or fix it quickly. His van Is equipped like a workshop with all the equipment, parts and tools necessary. Professional, dependable and reliable. Ross is working hard to maintain his company during the COVID-19 pandemic. He took every precaution to ensure social distancing, including wearing a mask. I highly recommend Guardian Lock and Security. Fair and reasonable price. You won’t be disappointed. Superb services.

Working with Ross is a no brainer! We are last minute people, and he was able to help us out day of. He responded promptly and arrived when he said he would. Explained the process, answered all our questions and was thorough throughout. Would recommend 100x over. Thanks for all your help, Ross!

I had a wonderful experience with Guardian Lock and Security! I initially had requested someone to come to my home and open my electronic safe. I had lost the key and accidentally locked it a few months ago. I knew I would need to buy a new one after it was either picked or drilled open but needed to get some papers out of the safe. Ross was right on time for our appointment and within a few minutes, he had picked it open. The most impressive thing was that he spent a good while working on my safe afterward to ensure that I could still open and close it. He was fantastic, so now I don’t need to buy a new safe as it is working just fine now. Additionally, I had recently moved into my new home and had never changed the locks. I asked him if he had time, and he said he could take care of that plus gave me several keys. It was a one-stop shop and everything was taken care of. I would highly recommend Ross and Guardian Lock and Security! He did a great job!
Maddie P.

Guardian Lock and Security did a great job rekeying the locks on my new home! The technician was very friendly and professional. He was able to get everything done quickly as soon as we moved in! I would highly recommend this company!
Alyssa L.

Ross was great to work with. He was prompt to reply to messages and ordered me a key quickly. Once it came in, it was easy to schedule him to come program the key. He was by far the best price I found around town and even gave me a Jeep original key! He programmed everything quickly and accurately. Really glad I found him on Yelp.
Allison V.

Ross is very personable and easy to get along with. He definitely strives to go above and beyond in helping us with cost. Beat everyone else’s prices. His work ethic was really good. He was in and out pretty quickly. He explains everything really well, so you know exactly what he is doing.
Elder M.

Fantastic Job! Great workmanship and very knowledgeable. We were closing on a new house and needed multiple locks rekeyed/changed. He was very understanding and accommodating to our ever-changing schedule. Highly recommend!
Jay B.

Ross was amazing. We bought a home, and he was at the ready to change all the locks the same day. Very responsive. Will use again in the future.

Ross from Guardian Lock and Security did an outstanding job. for my new home, he was able to rekey all the locks and provide expert knowledge and service. Scheduling: He was immediately responsive and had next day availability on a Saturday and gave a thorough explanation of pricing. Communication: He was prompt at the scheduled time and called prior with an ETA to confirm it still was convenient. Knowledge: Ross knew the lock brands and products well and asked questions to understand my needs and what I was looking for. He was thoughtful in asking questions on my preferences of how the install should go and explained all the important things for me to know. Value: I was originally going to install the locks myself but decided it may be worth the money to have a professional do it. Ross exceeded my expectations of rekeying the locks, installing the different products, and explaining important points if I choose to install door handles myself and how to save some money. Quality: Ross was thorough and provided expert service. He made sure all deadbolts moved smoothly, looked aligned to the door frame, and as unobtrusive as possible. Overall, this was money very well-spent and most of all I trust the work that was done and have peace of mind in my home. Highly recommended.

I needed to find a locksmith on short notice for a Sunday afternoon. Thumbtack matched me with Guardian Lock and Security. Professional locksmith Ross Andrews came to my assistance. He was very flexible, professional and provided educational knowledge on locksmith services. Overall, excellent service. I would definitely recommend Ross Andrews at Guardian Lock and Security 🙂
