Why local news calls us first

A name and face you’ll recognize.

Robert Vallelunga, owner of ACME Locksmith

I’m Robert. I bought ACME in 2007 and I’ve been running it ever since. When ABC15, CBS5, or the Let Joe Know team needs someone to explain a locksmith scam, a safe rating, or a smart lock failure on camera, they call me. I’m a cited source on WikiHow for security how-to articles. I’m not the only locksmith in Phoenix, but I’m one of the few willing to put my name and face on the work.

The techs you’ll meet on a Phoenix job are W-2 employees, uniformed, and background-checked. No subcontractors. No out-of-state call centers. No van that pulled into town yesterday.

    Charlie made duplicate keys for my RV, from blanks that none of the quick key machines have. He was quick and after testing them out in my RV, they all worked great.

    Charlie was super professional and polite. Overall a great experience!

    Was fortunate to meet Charlie today. Had a unique latch situation and we were able to rectify it. He was easy to talk to, patient, attentive. What more could you ask for!

Phoenix locksmith questions

Before you call.

Do you actually have a locksmith shop in Phoenix?

Yes. Our Phoenix shop is at 4143 N 16th Street, Suite 3, in the Biltmore corridor just south of Indian School Road. Walk-in hours are Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm. Mobile service runs 24/7 across the Phoenix metro.

How fast can a locksmith get to me in Phoenix?

Most central Phoenix calls are reached within 15 to 20 minutes during business hours. Arcadia, Biltmore, Encanto, and North Central are closest to the 16th Street shop. Sunnyslope, Desert Ridge, and Laveen are typically 30 to 45 minutes. We text you a live ETA when the tech is dispatched.

What brands of locks do you install in Phoenix homes?

For high-end entry hardware we install Baldwin, Schlage, Emtek, Yale, and Kwikset. For commercial and storefront work we install Schlage, Best, LSDA, Sargent, and Falcon. For high-security applications we install Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, and ASSA Abloy.

Can you make a car key in Phoenix?

Yes. We cut and program car keys, fobs, and remotes from the 16th Street shop or at your address. We stock 500+ key blanks for most makes and models including Ford, GM, Honda, Toyota, Kia, and Lexus. Full pricing and details are on the Phoenix car key replacement page.

How do I avoid a Phoenix locksmith scam?

Three checks. First, verify the company holds an AZ ROC contractor’s license. Most don’t. Second, ask for a flat quote in writing before they dispatch. Real shops give you one. Third, look for a real address and a real shop you can walk into. Fewer than 12 licensed locksmith companies exist in Arizona.
