I needed to have our locks changed for missing keys. I was so worried that someone had a key to our home, and could come in. I called Blanchard Security, and they sent Markus to save the day. Very professional and fast, I can't thank them enough for allowing me to have a stress free night. So impressed!

Natalie was very helpful setting up a service call before Andy and Markus repaired our buildings wireless entry system on both exterior doors. They were very friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with the finished product. I would highly recommend their services.

On Friday night our precious puppy locked us out of the house in the rain with dinner in the oven. Who would have thought. Markus arrived quickly and got to work before we burned the house down. Markus Installed a lock with a numerical code so we can always get in- which was brilliant. He even vacuumed up the shavings after installing the new the lock. Markus was friendly and polite. This kind of service is what will keep us coming back.
