Curt did a fabulous job on our front door with a custom plate to cover the fact that the plate from new knob was smaller than the previous. Very professional, skilled, & personable.

Amazing customer service and overall wonderful experience! We were out of town & our car key fob broke. We called and talked to Steve on the phone. He was very helpful and knowledgeable and told us he had a couple of the exact fobs we needed in stock! We went in first thing the next day and Steve was able to cut and program the key within 15 minutes. We had called multiple locksmiths and hardware stores prior to finding M.Spinello and no one had the key in stock and wanted to charge almost double what M.Spinello charged us to order it. Thank you Steve and M.Spinello!

Wonderful service! I needed to have 6 exterior locks and 2 interior locks changed when my tenant lost a set of their keys. Scott was wonderful-the interior locks were vintage and he found locks that complemented the vintage feel of the building. He was very professional and worked quickly and efficiently- Thanks again Scott. Spinellos is my go to locksmiths!

We did a pretty big security camera upgrade project at our place of business. We had both Brian and Andrew on the job. They were professional, thorough, patient, and followed through with the job until it was completely done and we were happy. It was a real pleasure working with them both. Would highly recommend M Spinello and those two!
