Did you know locks have a limited lifetime? Yes, they wear out. So it is not unusual that you will encounter many locks that require repair. Some locks, like those on public building entrances that are used extensively will break even quicker. The majority of locks have small and sensitive parts like tumblers which will degrade over time. The lock cylinder is also susceptible to this type of risk. Have a problem with your lock. Your lock is not working as it should, no problem! We can have your lock repaired in just a matter of minutes after you call.

Services
Precision Locksmith was founded in April of 2007 by James Barthelemy, a professional locksmith from Crossville, Tennessee. Relocating to Covington, Georgia in the spring of 2007 offered James the chance to found his own service to serve the people of Newton county and the surrounding areas. With over fifteen years experience as a locksmith, James brings extensive knowledge of a spectrum of locks and security products. Our goal is to be the best locksmith service possible. Friendly, courteous, and prompt service are the core values that define our business.
When you move into a house or apartment, have the locks re-keyed. There's no telling who the previous residents may have given a spare key to, or whether they kept one themselves. To avoid being locked out of your house, secure a spare key in a combination or key lockbox on your property, or leave one with a trusted neighbor.

They were a lifesaver for me! My sons car was disabled and we got a "service security system" message. After googling incessantly, and trying all the tricks to reset the system, we realized he needed a new key. Ace Hardware couldn't make one because his check engine light was on. I explained that it'd been on for 2 years, even after all repairs were complete.
We decided to take it to the Chevy dealer, but they wanted us to leave it for 4 days before they could even look at it. Finally after several days of doing everything I could think of and his car being stuck at his job, I called Precision Locksmith and the guy who answered the phone listened to the problem and said he'd get back with me. He called back shortly thereafter and they told me they could come the next day.
They were prompt and so nice and within 10 minutes had a new key done and the car started. The price was completely fair and I couldn't be happier that I no longer have to take him to and from work! The funny part is - the check engine light is no longer on, so after some more googling I realized that the chip can be the cause of the light.i will definitely use this company for all my lock needs in the future. THANK YOU!

Moved into a new house and needed to change all the locks. Had trouble finding a quality locksmith. The first wanted to overcharge for cheap locks then wouldn't give a simple quote for work if I supplied the locks. The 2nd said they don't service the area even though the office is 5 miles away from home. I gave up for a few months then saw Precision Locksmith. Zach answered the phone and was helpful in going over my situation, options, and provided a straight up quote without any hassle.
He was able to schedule a time around my hectic schedule. Dorothy arrived to do the work on time and did a great job. I hope to never need a locksmith again, but if I do I'm calling Precision and asking for Dorothy!

I dropped my keys while cutting grass and cut my only truck key in half. I called a few other locksmiths before reaching out to Precision and couldn't get anyone. These guys showed up within an hour of calling. The young lady, Dorothy that came out was extremely professional and did such a good job! She made me 2 keys and new key fob to lock and unlock the truck on the spot, all for a reasonable price. I can't say enough how happy I am and how great my experience was with Ms. Dorothy and precision locksmith! Thank you guys!

These guys had a task at hand but achieved the goal! They went above and beyond with super professionalism and great hospitality. I am going to keep recommending them to everyone I know. The price was way reasonable unlike dealerships and they also fixed an issue with a safe I had installed in my vehicle. If I ever need anything I will go there and it's worth the drive for me from Kennesaw!

I have had Precision Locksmith do work both at both my place of business and at my home. James is very professional, very courteous, and very prompt. He consulted with me on several security issues. His rates, coming from Covington to Winder, GA were more reasonable than the local locksmith company. The team at Precision Locksmith are well trained and professional and I highly recommend them.

James and Tracey run a great business. We stopped in just to check it out and found a lock and key box. Great price so we had to have it. The store is pristine and James does quality work. He also came to our house to open a safe. He was professional and courteous and Precision will always get our business.

They are amazing! Came on time, very friendly and solved the issue quickly. I had a broken key that locked my security system in my vehicle which prohibited it from starting. James came out and quickly cut the new key and programmed it to my vehicle for an amazing price! Even gave me a complimentary jump start since my battery also died. Very professional company and people! Wouldn't go elsewhere!

I was 100% pleased and satisfied with the service I received from James. I live in California and needed rekeying on several locks along with having new deadbolts installed on my empty house in Covington. To begin with I posted a message on their website & he called me within three minutes! We set an appointment, he met my relatives there, stayed in touch with me on his cellphone as he worked, sent me photos and BAM! he was done.
The price was beyond reasonable and he took care of securing some other doors & windows at no charge. My advice is for folks to not even bother calling any other locksmiths.this is the company you want. (By the way I still have not had a return call from the other locksmith I had contacted first in Oxford) Thank you James for a wonderful job! M Curtis Sacramento, CA

These guys are top notch. Our technician showed up on time, and did a fantastic job. Our doors had some shoddy workmanship, and he was able to fix them so all the locks worked properly and the deadbolts were drilled correctly. The price was surprisingly affordable, especially for all he did to get our house up to par. He even cleaned up after himself. I was truly impressed, and won't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Thanks Precision!
