Some of you who frequent Dolphin Village Shopping Center may have noticed a new name on the door where the insurance office used to be, or seen the white van in the parking lot. The center’s newest tenant is Tommy Locksmith.
Insured and registered as a locksmith with Hillsborough and Pinellas counties and with the state of Florida as an LLC, Tommy Locksmith takes great pride in being the first place that prior customers turn to get great service in times of emergency. He gets 60% of his business from repeat customers and referrals. Customers constantly count on him when their lives get put on hold due to a lock out or key problem. They count on him to secure their families, their homes and cars, their most important and prized possessions. According to his customers, he is the #1 Locksmith in Tampa Bay.
His father was a carpenter and general contractor, and his grandfather was a certified Ford mechanic all of his life. So if he wasn’t on the jobsite, he was around the garage. With a background in carpentry and construction, he not only knows about the locks on your door, but how that door and frame are attached to the wall in your house. That can be very important when deciding the best way to secure that door, or in some cases unsecure it without damaging it. With his background in automotive, he can not only open your locked car without damage and make a key for it, but he can also repair stuck or broken ignitions and door locks. He can also usually get the combination to most safes made within the past decade and if that is not an option, and he cannot pick the lock, regardless if it is a circle or blade key, he will get it open for you! He can also change the combination in your safe, if you think that it has gotten out beyond your circle of trust.
He is very honest when it comes to what customers need. He will explain if he can rekey the locks at a much cheaper price than replacing them. He responds to emergency daytime calls in St. Petersburg, Pinellas Park, Bay Pines, Pinellas Point, Snell Isle, Shore Acres, Gulfport, Treasure Island, Madeira Beach, St Pete Beach, Tierra Verde, Fort Desoto, and Gandy in no time, and can make it to locations in Tampa, Clearwater, Safety Harbor, Apollo Beach, Ruskin, and North Manatee in less than 45 min.
When you are locked out of your home or car you can expect exactly this: he will examine the locks and determine the best method to circumvent the lock. These methods can include picking the lock, using bypass tools, and depending on the quality of the lock, or other factors he may need to use more destructive techniques to gain entry, but he is carefully destructive. He will do his best not to harm the door that the lock is securing, and he will have a replacement option available to re-secure the door after it has been opened. Tommy Locksmith has yet to be locked out by any lock. He will get you in!
