A Lock Shop in Gilbert

Walk into ACME Locksmith at 81 S McQueen Road, Suite 102, on the corner of Elliot and McQueen, Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm. Rekey while you wait, a car key cut at the counter, or a safe opened. Licensed under AZ ROC #271563.

We keep a working safe showroom on the floor. Touch the doors, test the dials, and compare fire and burglary ratings before you buy. Most locksmiths never touch safes at all.

More than 3,000 Gilbert addresses served, and 4.9 stars across 270+ reviews for this shop alone. Gilbert builder communities like Power Ranch, Seville, Layton Lakes, and Adora Trails often shipped with early Kwikset SmartKey locks that a cheap tool can bypass. We replace those daily.

Every job is backed by a lifetime workmanship warranty and a 30-day, all encompassing, money-back guarantee.

Just moved into a Gilbert home? Get a 7-Point Security Check.

When you buy a Gilbert home, you do not know how many keys are still out there. Builders, agents, cleaners, the last owner. ACME does more than a basic rekey. Our 7-Point New Home Security Evaluation checks every exterior lock, the strike plates, garage security, mailbox keys, and your door’s security. We then rekey everything to one new key. Builder communities like Power Ranch, Seville, Layton Lakes, and Adora Trails often shipped with early Kwikset SmartKey locks that a cheap tool can bypass. We replace those daily.

From the owner

The tech at your door is one of ours.

Robert Vallelunga, owner of ACME Locksmith, at the Gilbert shop

I live here in Gilbert and I bought ACME in 2007. We have run this town for years, from the shop at Elliot and McQueen. When ABC15, CBS5, or 3TV’s Pat McMahon Show needs someone to explain a locksmith scam, a safe rating, or a smart lock failure on camera, they call me. I am a cited source on WikiHow for security how-to articles.

The techs you meet on a Gilbert job are W-2 employees, uniformed, and background-checked. No subcontractors. No out-of-state call centers. No van that pulled into town yesterday. Veteran-owned, owner-operated.

    ACME Locksmith provided services at two business locations for us. Each location required lock rekeying, door lock repair, and swing door bar replacement or installation.In all cases, Max performed the work for us after we accepted the … More estimates, which were very reasonable. The jobs were performed in a timely manner and the installation work was fantastic and efficient. Highly recommended ACME locksmith for their services!
  • Richard Kwasneski’s Avatar Richard Kwasneski ★★★★★ a month ago
    David is an incredible help! Our front door lock at our business was not very smooth. In fact it was so bad, we broke a key off in it trying to unlock it. When I went to disassemble it, I saw just how bad it was. David gave me a very helpful … More hint to prevent a small disaster and I was able to get it out and over to him. He was able to match the part, get all the correct hardware and make a couple of extra keys on the spot. Yes, I could have saved some money online, but not only did I get the parts immediately, but I got thorough advice and tips on how to reinstall the lock. It works remarkably well and it is done in a matter of a few minutes knowing how to properly install it from David's instructions. I have used Acme for years for reasons like David's expertise.

    I want to give a huge shout out to David! I came in with a very hard to find key and he went over and beyond to make it happen. He was incredibly helpful, personable and genuinely cared about making sure I was taken care of his customer … More service and rapportwere outstanding. I highly recommend having your keys made here if you’re looking for someone who truly knows their stuff and goes the extra mile ask for David.

questions

Before you call.

How much does a Gilbert locksmith charge to unlock a home, car or business?

A legitimate locksmith charges roughly $199 to unlock a car, home, or business during regular hours. Always get an exact price up front, not after the work.

Are Arizona locksmiths licensed?

There is no specific licensing requirement in Arizona to be a locksmith, so anyone can do it. ACME holds an Arizona Contractors license (#271563), required for contracting jobs over $1,000. Fewer than 12 locksmiths in the whole metro are licensed for contracting.
