Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:
“Had these guys out to rekey all of our locks when we moved into our new home. The guy was quick, extremely professional and fair-priced. He even helped to unstick a lock he wasn’t replacing for free for us. We used to have to pull on the door really hard to get the deadbolt locked or undone — he worked his magic, and it’s a breeze to unlock and lock now. Will definitely come back for any of our locksmith needs in the future!” – S. D.
Not Your Average Locksmith
Arlington Lock is a small, family-owned business, giving them the ability to pay more attention to each and every customer than the big companies. The fact that they’re small also means that issues or problems are sent directly to Charles Barton, the owner, rather than getting rung up the flagpole through multiple people.
We sat down with Charles to learn why he does what he does. Here’s what he had to say:
“My dad started the business and passed it onto me. I enjoy helping people.”
Building Success by Hiring the Right Technicians
Charles credits Arlington Lock’s strong online reputation to his commitment to hiring the right technicians:
“It starts with our technicians, who do the job right the first time and at a reasonable price. We don’t solicit reviews; people leave them on their own.”
Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Arlington Lock has gotten their name out there through their website and Yelp, but word of mouth has been the main source of growth for the business. In fact, they’ve had so many referrals that they are barely keeping up with the amount of work they have as it is, even without any additional advertising.
Clearly, Charles understands a thing or two about how to build an online reputation and grow a business. Here’s his expert advice for the many other business owners out there working to do the same thing:
“Focus on doing a great job for the customer, and leave them with a good feeling.”
Congratulations to the team at Arlington Lock, Inc. for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Charles, for taking the time to speak with us!
From automotive, commercial and residential lock-outs to key replacements and rekeying, we highly recommend Arlington Lock, Inc. Visit their website today!
