Thank you for great service! It was time to get some new security hardware for my business. Auman’s walked me through a few different options. They were very professional and showed me the best way to secure my business. . . I will recommend Auman’s to anyone who is looking for a better security solution.Eli G.
Thanks very much! It meant a lot to me that you were primarily concerned about my safety. Also, I appreciate being able to buy "Do Not Duplicate Keys". Rocking great service!!!Barb K.
I was there yesterday to fix a lock, and I wanted to thank you for the great job and customer service.Gail R.
We had a time sensitive issue around a locked safe because we had a pending audit the next day. The tech from Auman’s responded immediately and was able to be here within an hour. Best of all, he had the safe open within 45 minutes. Auman’s will be my #1 go-to for any and all security related issues in the future.Sonya M.
Thank you so very much for the incredible service you provided to me...Service like this is hard to find these days. This is "old school" service. I am grateful for the care that was extended to me during a difficult and scary time. I will be happy to recommend this business to anyone and everyone! Thank you very much!!!Barb K.
Amazing service and a crazy great price Steven helped me through all the steps and made it easy for someone as clueless as myselfMarcus S.
Very efficient and friendly service.Rachel K.
I got a set of keys made, and it took less than five minutes from the time I walked in to the time I walked out. I haven't had keys made before, so I don't know the going rate, but for two keys to be copied, the total was $5.30, which I thought was very reasonable.
Brought in key lock cylinders for my truck, Auman's rekeyed both of them to match my ignition key for the best price I could imagine. Very friendly, helpful and understanding staff. Definitely referring them to anyone I run into with a locksmith job, keep up the good work!Fred Z.
In the midst of the craziest time of the year, i.e. fall move in week at Penn State, I called with a problem with a single room door lock and 'somehow' they were able to take care of my situation within 24 hours. Thanks!David L.
We had great service from Kyra today. She was friendly, courteous and on time. She was able to rekey two locks professionally and efficiently. The one was an older difficult assembly. She was able to improve the operation in addition to rekeying it to match the other door. Thank you for a job well done at a reasonable cost!William F.
I accidentally locked myself out of my house and they had me back in within an hour! Friendly, efficient, professional, I can't say enough good things!Susan D.
If I could give them 10 stars I would!Bill R.
These gentlemen epitomize customer service. Jay and his crew are clearly dedicated to their jobs. I would recommend anyone to them before calling another locksmith. Customer service such as theirs is hard to come by.
I called about a car lockout. Kyra was wonderful, patient, and went above and beyond to try to help me. Certainly would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Kyra!!! I appreciate your help!!!Amber H.
Great service! Great price! I stopped in without an appointment to get a spare key made for my recent used car purchase. This foreign made vehicle gave them a challenge, but they were persistent to see that I got a working key. After several attempts they got one to work for me. Thanks for your never give up effort! You did it. And all of this at a ridiculously low price. I wish more businesses cared like you guys do. Keep up the good work!Neal S.
Jay was very friendly, professional, and persistent when unlocking my house. He was very apologetic about taking so long to arrive, but on a very busy weekend in State College and considering his great service, it was easily forgiven.Cody H.
Thank you so much to AKS. Awesome service in every way. Made a very inconvenient day turn right around!!! 🙂 (I wish i got the gentleman's name - he really was the nicest!)Kayla M.
