Lee truly is committed to helping his community and ensuring the customer is set up for success. He replaced the lock on our safe quickly and professionally and when I had issues, because I did not pay attention, he came right over to trouble shoot and assist. His kindness and commitment to customer service was exceptionally appreciated and very rare in this day and age. I will only call Knight Safe and Lock for our future needs.

I am happy to share that there are still honest, professional and knowledgeable businesses around. Knight Locksmith was just that! The service was efficient and smooth; especially important for my small business with customers present. Thank you Knight Locksmith! I will continue to support you and recommend you wholeheartedly to others.

We called Knight Safe & Lock to see if they could help us with a sticky door lock issue we had been experiencing. Not only was I impressed with how quickly they were able to come out to our home but also with the level of professionalism and efficiency in fixing our problem. In addition to the great job Lee Mentzos did with our front door, he was also kind enough to give us some recommendations for programming automobile keys; as we are in need of another spare. We highly recommend Lee and the services of Knight Safe & Lock!
Another great local Gig Harbor business.

Lee arrived a couple minutes early, was professional;, courteous, and observed the appropriate Covid protocols. I called him just to re-key the locks in my home, but I asked about the quality of what was here (really old locksets, high wear on the mechanisms, etc.) so I opted for high-security locks, replaced the knobs with levers, and went from the (tired) bronze to brushed nickel. Lee took his time to get the locks all working smoothly, and fixed the strike plates on at least two of the doors, and added a deadbolt on the door to the garage. I highly recommend his work.

My wife and I were visiting the area in our motor home when our deadbolt failed. I searched the internet and determined that my deadbolt was no longer manufactured and was an RV specialty item. I called another local locksmith and sent photos and they told me I would have to have my RV door drilled out to accept a new residential deadbolt. Not wanting to drill into my RV, I sought a second opinion with Knight Safe & Lock.
The Knight Safe & Lock Locksmith arrived right on time and immediately recognized the old internal mechanisms as a clone of a brand name lock. He was able to quickly build a new key core for me from scratch--using a core from the new lock that still fit into my existing OEM RV internal deadbolt which still functioned normally. It was an engineering feat and yet it took him only about 3 minutes.
This locksmith is legit and is a true expert craftsman. And the price was extremely reasonable too--less than half what the other locksmith quoted me. I highly recommend Knight Safe & Lock.

I have known and used the services of Lee and Knight Safe and Lock for the past 20 plus years. I am a licensed realtor in the area and have occasion to use locksmiths quite frequently. He is the only one I trust! Today, I had Lee come out and rekey a home I will be listing and as always, his service was on time, fast and efficient. I can always count on Lee to give me an honest, straight answer of what needs to be done and will always try to save my clients money wherever and whenever possible.
He has all the equipment and tools in his van to get the job done for me right then and there. No waiting or wasted time! I am so grateful to know Lee and have him as a resource for our clients. Thank you for the amazing service!

Absolutely the best, most kind-hearted experience! Called just before closing with a residential lockout, not only did he work incredibly hard after hours to a) pick the lock, and when that wasn't possible, b) drill the lock, he installed a new handle right on the spot and made four extra keys, just in case. If you need a locksmith, this is 100% the one to use.

RARELY do I write reviews on anything. But a huge shout out to Knight Safe & Lock. Local company owned by seriously the most attentive and professional couple. I had a huge conundrum with my keys yesterday and Lee was AMAZING. Customer service is the building blocks of a business. Prices are so reasonable. I seriously couldn't be happier with Knight.

Hands-down the best Locksmith I've ever used. Lee knows his stuff and won't try to talk you into parts or services you don't need. He's fast, professional, and charges a very fair price. I would absolutely use him again, and recommend him to anyone without hesitation. Save yourself a lot of time, trouble, and aggravation and call Knight Safe & Lock first, and get the job done right the first time around.

We had called another company who said they were local but clearly they were not. They quoted us under 25.00 plus labor, which we didn't really think much of until he finally got there. It took 2 hours to get to us when he said it would be 15 minutes then he said the labor price was over 200.00 because "our locks were special and needed to be drilled open".
We told him to leave and called Knight instead. Knight arrived in about 20 minutes and got us right into our house no problem. We will only use Knight Locksmith from now on, they know what they are doing and are not rip off artists like the other guys listed online.

When I move I always have the locks changed first thing. I called Knight Safe & Lock as recommended by my realtor. Lee was able to come over the next day which I was grateful for. He is very knowledgeable, explained why I needed a new lock on one door, fixed everything up and was on his way in good time. I appreciate his professionalism and his friendliness. Don't hesitate to call Lee. You will be glad you did.

We had our house burglarized and they also stole the house keys. We were not aware that some deadbolts are not as strong as others. They kicked our back door in splitting the wood out. Thankfully we called Lee and he told us about the different types of deadbolts that were available, and arranged for our locks to be changed out with stronger locks, which was done within hours.
It was so reassuring that we could rely on a fast cost efficient service. It helped us sleep better that night. These new locks are much heavier than the locks we had from the hardware store. Lee educated us on the differences and he had many options to choose from right in his truck. We feel much safer now knowing that our doors are much more secure. Thank you for all your help it was much appreciated. Highly recommended!

Knight Safe & Lock has been around for over 20 years, providing professional Locksmith needs to the people of Gig Harbor. They have always been professional and prompt. Don't fall for the other "ads" on Google that say they are in Gig Harbor.they are not. They are from as far away as Seattle and charge a LOT more to dive out here. Knight Safe & Lock is the ONLY locksmith in Gig Harbor that is recommended by the Gig Harbor Police Department. Don't believe me? Call them up and ask : They are 100% Licensed and Bonded and truly professional at what they do.
