Closed Sunday
We are able to perform a wide variety of services including:
Residential - Commercial - Automotive - Safes
Residential: re-keying, lock repairs, strike adjustments, installation of
locks and deadbolts, opening of houses when locked out. Do you have or are
thinking about getting "burglar bars"?
ATTN NEW HOME OWNERS!
If you have just purchased a new home it is important for you to have your house
re-keyed. There is likely a MASTER KEY
out there that opens your home. The Builders don't always tell you about the BUILDER'S
KEY and the resulting BUILDER'S
MASTER KEY and the fact that instead
of just 1 key working in your locks it is likely that up
to 32 different keys will work in your locks.

I also have HIGH SECURITY locks available
for your residence - CLICK HERE for more
information on HIGH SECURITY locks.
Commercial: re-keying,
master-keying*, lock repairs, strike adjustments,
installation of locks and deadbolts, opening of businesses when locked out. I
also design and install access control systems including electric strikes,
magnetic locks, electronic key-pads, card readers and more.
One little example of my work - retrofit of
a malfunctioning lock with a Simplex / Unican 7014 mechanical combination lock http://locksmithcharley.com/ssunican.html
I also have HIGH SECURITY locks
available for your business - CLICK HERE for
more information on HIGH SECURITY locks.
*If you are interested in the subject of keys stamped "do not
duplicate" and information on the thoughts of someone involved in
institutional locksmithing you might want to read a personal position paper by Don O'Shall called:
"Do Not Duplicate" and the Institutional Locksmith
(Microsoft Word format) (PDF
format)
Automotive: opening, making first key when all keys are lost, re-keying to
a new key. I also have the GM VATS keys as well as TRANSPONDER keys for many
vehicles. If you have a vehicle that uses a transponder key I am able to read
and store the transponder codes for many cars and then originate a new key later
if you should lose your existing keys. Please
click here to get more information on TRANSPONDER KEYS.
**If you have a transponder vehicle
it is ESSENTIAL to
have extra keys on hand TO AVOID A VERY EXPENSIVE
problem should your keys be lost or stolen**.
Safes: Locksmith
Charley's staff is trained to provide routine
safe service, combination changing, and penetration of locked up
containers. We have a few samples in stock and are able to get many other models
same day if necessary and we are able to custom order any safe you may wish to purchase. We
can also do safe moving and bolting down to the floor if you should require
those services.
If you have a safe and are having intermittent
trouble opening it DO NOT LOCK IT - call 602-230-8888 for service instead. It is considerably
less expensive to repair an OPEN malfunctioning safe than it is to penetrate
a locked up container by drilling!
I recommend that you have your safe
lock serviced (includes cleaning, inspection, and lubrication) at least once
each year. If your safe is used in a business where it is opened multiple times daily
then you should have routine safe service every 6 months. Mobile service to your
location for routine safe servicing is as low as $75.00 (one lock on one
door). Each additional lock or door is only $25.00 additional.
I am always interested in purchasing any used safes - open or locked up is
OK

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. Residential FIRE SAFETY vs. Burglar Bars - a MUST READ PAGE CLICK HERE (Locksmith Charley doesn't want to have any ROASTED CUSTOMERS (or NON-customers for that matter)!
While on the subject of Burglar Bars, I
have some interesting information to share on the subject of Security
gates...
LESLIE LOCKE company
manufacturers certain "Security Doors" or "Security Gates" and mass markets them through
Home Depot, and others using what I consider to be extremely deceptive
advertising that lures consumers into a false sense of security. Feel free to
view the VIDEO
CLIP and click on LESLIE LOCKE
GATES for the whole story...
2. SECURE YOUR COMPUTER!
Your personal (or business) computer MAY be being attacked at this very
moment and you may not even be aware of it - until its too late. Please review
the information at www.keyfinders.net/security/secure.htm
and protect yourself!
3. Fire Safes vs. Burglary Safes
- RATINGS
CHART
"Are you putting valuable property
into a suitable container?"
If you are going to store money, jewelry, guns, or other valuable items it is advisable to secure them in a suitably rated
BURGLARY container.
If you have important documents such as stock certificates, mortgages, etc. they need to be stored in a FIRE container.
To give your important documents full protection it is advisable to store the fire container within the burglary container to protect it from theft. There do exist containers which are a composite or combination fire/burglary safe but they are considerably more expensive than either of their counterparts.
4. GOOD LOCAL BUSINESSES: - these are companies in the area that I have had dealings with and have had very good results.
ABLE REALTY - Bill - 602-298-1795 - showed me 10-15 houses in Phoenix and found me the right one! He also introduced me to Jeff at National City Mortgage who hooked up the financing.
National City Mortgage - Jeff - 866-248-2415 - arranged the financing for my house - easiest financing I've ever had.
SHAMROCK TOWING - 602-257-1665 - When the service truck tire blew out and the spare failed the nice driver from Shamrock came and rescued me and even though it was late on a Saturday night they didn't "rape" me financially.
VON HANSON'S MEAT MARKET - If you really love meat this is the place to go - from hamburger to brats to steaks they have it all. They help you in a most professional manner, are very friendly, and usually will pamper you with some free samples. They're in Chandler at 2390 North Alma School Road and their phone number is: 480-917-2525
A. L.& S. Security - Call Gordon at 602-278-4582 For all of your burglar alarm and security system needs. They give you excellent rates for residential or commercial accounts unlike some of the other alarm companies around. They also don't lock you into some obnoxious contract because they feel that their customers will appreciate their rates and service enough to stick around. The other companies apparently feel that if they don't lock you into a contract that they will certainly quickly lose their customers.
Johnston's Auto at 3445 N. 24th St., Phoenix (602-381-0448) It looks like Johnston's is going to be my "GO-TO" mechanic! After john's family car care couldn't get the my U-haul truck to pass emissions 4 times Johnston's got it done right the first time! No Muss, No fuss. They also found a defective sensor in my Girlfriend's car that the Ford dealership was unable to correct. The sensor controlled the engine cooling fan and caused the car to overheat and die repeatedly.
Plumbing by Jeremy - 480-695-6416 - Jeremy was sent to me by the home warranty company to take care of an immediate need problem at my little apartment building. He took care of the problem "quick fast in a hurry"! He also told me that he services the entire valley so call Jeremy when you have a plumbing problem.
Mike's Workshop - 623-247-4870 - for appliance repair. I called out one unmentionable company to find and fix a noise in the "new" used refrigerator I brought home. The first guy took our money and said "since its not making any noise NOW...." and "I'll be back tomorrow..." well tomorrow never came etc. ad. nauseum. I finally called Mike's and they sent a technician out who QUICKLY determined that the (unused) icemaker was faulty and making noise so we simply had him remove it for us. Definitely a GREAT company to deal with!
SUN CELLULAR INC - email - 2813 E. McDowell Rd., Phoenix 602-267-7800 - The nice folks at SUN CELLULAR don't sell any phones or airtime but they do programming and repairs on cell phones from any manufacturer except Samsung and Sanyo.
5. PROBLEM COMPANIES - these are companies in the area that I
have had specific problems relating to their work or
ethics.
A. RAIN
FOREST PLUMBING
B. John's
Family Car Care
