"Ron Cruz was the technician that came out. I was quoted a much higher price at frist over the phone and wasn't going to use them at 1st. But then they called me back and told me they would charge 1/2. Ron was very professional and friendly. He was also efficient and sympathetic to my situation. I would recommend that you request the tech if given the choice. He even charged my $10 less than the 2nd quote of $60.00 so I wouldn't have to borrow it from my neighbor. I wish many blessings to this remarkable person."

My name is David Mitchell and I am a Certified Master Locksmith with over 20 years experience. My wife, Georgianne, handles the accounting for our business. I’ve enjoyed helping people for the past two decades both in the Navy and now as a civilian. I look at every call we receive as an opportunity to serve someone. So please feel free to call me with any safety or security question that you may have .
"Mitch is an awesome person and knows his craft well. Our first contact was for a winch boat key my husband had lost. Upon arriving Mitch showed my husband that he had left the winch unlocked! Mitch didn’t charge us even for the call. Fast forward to a few weeks ago and we needed Mitch’s service again to help with a dead bolt on our front door. He came out that day, and had to replace the lock. Again just an awesome person all around!"

Local Hampton Roads Locksmith in business since 1994. DCJS license number 11-5706. Veteran owned Business. Our prices are VERY reasonable, the price you are quoted is the price you pay... PERIOD. no hidden fees ever. TRUE 24 hour service, no additional charges for weekends.
"I locked my keys in my truck after leaving my VSO appointment because Im a 100% disabled veteran. I called pop a lock and they quickly sent out a technician who was friendly and unlocked my driver side door. However, in the process, the tech scratched the inside of my drivers side door jam down to the bare metal about 1.5” scratch. He then had me sign an invoice by blowing it up on his phone so all I saw was the signature box and told me it was just a confirmation that he opened the lock for me. Later, when I received my email copy, I saw it was actually and invoice with an acknowledgment that no damage had occurred during the work which I obviously wouldn’t have signed. I’ve called pop a lock twice to report the damage and have twice been told a supervisor would contact me and Ive heard nothing. I understand mistakes happen, but I am highly disappointed by the lack of customer service Ive received after the fact from this “veteran owned” franchise."

FAQs for locksmith service projects in Williamsburg, VA
The installation timeframe varies based on door preparation and lock complexity. For doors already prepared with appropriate holes, installation might take 15 to 30 minutes. New installations requiring drilling take one to two hours. First-time DIY installers should allocate additional time to ensure proper alignment and function. Professional locksmiths complete standard installations efficiently due to their specialized tools and experience.
Most residential doors can accommodate deadbolts, but certain door types present challenges. Solid wood and fiberglass doors accept standard deadbolt hardware, while metal doors require specialized drilling equipment. Hollow-core interior doors lack the structural integrity to properly support deadbolts without additional reinforcement. Doors should be at least 1⅜ inches thick to properly house standard deadbolt mechanisms.
Door warranties remain valid when deadbolts are installed according to the manufacturer's guidelines. However, improper installation that damages the door structure might affect warranty coverage.
Before modifying any door under warranty, review the documentation for specific limitations or requirements regarding hardware installation. Some manufacturers provide templates or guidelines for acceptable lock placement to maintain warranty protection.
Rekeying offers a more economical alternative to complete replacement when you need to change access, but the lock mechanism remains in good condition. This process involves reconfiguring the internal pins to work with a new key while retaining the existing hardware. For homeowners with multiple locks, rekeying provides the convenience of using a single key for all entry points while maintaining security.
