Stan, thank you very much for taking time to figure out what exact parts I needed to fix my lock. The repair kit worked perfectly. I appreciate your help

Very rude people, they did service on my street, they parked on cleaning street time, I asked them nicely to move their vehicle for 30 minutes until the cleaning car will arrive and they refused and start cursing at me. Shame for them. NOT GOOD PEOPLE TO SERVE YOU IN MY OPINION.

We have been customers of Flam's for over 30 years. When we were experiencing difficulty with our front door dead bolt lock, we didn't think twice, but immediately called Flam's. As my husband is not a "do it yourself around the house" kind of guy, it never even occurred to him the problem would be as simple as spraying a lubricant into the lock. The technician was here 30 seconds (literally) and we were charged the $79. service call.
I inquired if there was not some kind of good will where we would be charged less than the $79. Though he understood, he said that's what had to be charged. After all these years as a loyal customer, I will not be using Flam's again. I certainly understand having to charge something, but not giving any leeway at all seems unkind and harsh.

I came in at 11:55 on Tuesday and purchased 3 garage remotes. I tested all 3 remotes and all remotes worked. The service I received and the quality of their work deserves a rating greater than 5 stars. I also requested service to change the locks on my new condo and I am sure that service will be if the same quality. I recommend anyone in their area to use Flams.
