Garage door release key was lost
This company has a $19. service call fee. Technician charged $20. for call and $139. to drill out a garage door release key which he said he 99% for sure could pick and not have to drill . The garage door was installed in the summer of 2013 professionally and neatly. The technician could not pick the lock as he said he most likely could and so went about drilling the lock out, which of course rendered it into bits. I had a new release key to match the garage door opener and so for $45. more, this was installed. Total of $230.52 for what seemed to be a simple job for a technician that really could pick a lock. Hole drilled in door is larger than new release key. Would someone please consider licensing locksmiths? There doesn't seem to be any way to know what will happen when a problem occurs. I think the charge for drilling a hole badly in an insulated door was excessive and am not really happy with the end result.
