How to Avoid Locksmith Scams
Locksmith scams are common, especially during a stressful lockout — a dishonest "locksmith" quotes a tiny price on the phone, then demands far more once they've drilled your lock. A few quick signs to watch for:
Top warning signs
- Won't give a business name or license number
- A suspiciously low quote that jumps on arrival
- Shows up unmarked or under a different name
- Pressure to drill or replace a working lock
- Cash-only, with no receipt

Local homeowners and businesses who trusted us with their security.
★★★★★
Their locksmith Jared is incredibly knowledgeable and so thorough. They value safety over everything and as a single woman, this is such an important aspect of a company. They're reasonably priced and educated me on the difference of the equipment so I knew what I was paying for. I really appreciated how kind they were overall!
★★★★★
Absolutely fantastic level of knowledge and quality of work. Jared and Jessica re keyed our front door plus 8 exterior doors. They also installed three electronic locks for us. A challenging project that other locksmiths in the area said they could not complete. They did it in quick time and in an extremely professional manner. More importantly, they were fair on pricing. I would recommend them for any task, no matter how complex.
★★★★★
Jared is a great locksmith. If there's a way to get it open he will find it. He helped me with a simple lockout, but some of the jobs this guy told me about tells me he knows what he is doing. The pricing seemed fair too. I would definitely go back to him and recommend Kraken's services if you need the help of a locksmith. They know what they are doing.
