History

Established in 1991.

After finishing school, Christopher Dayan worked for six years, as an apprentice and journeyman for two locksmith/​security companies. In 1991, after having completed his Certified Master Locksmith testing, he went into business for himself.

Frequently he would go to customers’ properties because they said the locks were broken. But the cause of the broken locks was the door itself. That was the beginning of his expansion into door repair and replacement.

As the business has grown, and the industry has changed direction, he has added new technologies into the business including buzzer entry systems, magnetic locks, access systems, camera systems, intercoms, doorbells etc. Customers often ask for other services, so he offers full handyman services –from the large project to the small.

Free time is infrequent, but family time is important. We get away for a day to the shore when there is time. Northern New Jersey is really a beautiful area, and we really enjoy the diversity of the area.

We have used Christopher Dayan twice now since we bought our house. We wanted to prevent the previous owners access to the house and to make sense of the various locks around the house. Chris walked through our house and made suggestions where security could be generally improved, which we have since implemented.
We asked him to return after having an unfortunate situation with a pet sitter and wanted to change our locks to ensure that we didn’t have an «uninvited guest». He came shortly after I called and quickly changed both locks. Chris also made a great suggestions what we could do going forward. As other Unilocalers have noted, Chris is patient, professional, and provides really cost-​effective solutions. In fact, I would have to say that he is the most professional person with whom I have dealt in connection with our house.

I needed a keypad entry system for my office, so I called Chris. I found that he was extremely knowledgeable. I checked with other security companies for comparison purposes, but Chris was the only one whom I felt knew exactly what was needed. Chris was thorough in explaining how the system works, and I felt that the completed process was tailor made to my specific needs. This is new office space, freshly painted and I was somewhat concerned about neatness. Needless to say, the finished product looks amazing! Chris was prompt, detailed and professional.
I highly recommend him!

Chris did an amazing job with re-​keying my place. Very professional, on-​time, great communication. Not only Chris did the required work, he also explained how the locks work, talked about the specific model/​manufacturer that I have, and the future options.

Responded in a timely manner to a urgent locksmith need I had. Was very responsive and was easily reachable. Explained what was wrong with lock and suggested most cost effective way to fix problem. Will definitely use again if needed.
Only thing keeping this from being a 5 star review was the inability to pay by credit card and that he didn’t know what his schedule was until returning to his office. They have smart phones now with schedule applications available!

We used Christopher Dayan twice after we bought our house. The first time he rekeyed the front door so the previous owners couldn’t get in. The second time he installed a lock on a new door, added extra security to our sliding patio door, and changed some of the locks to be the same so we can use one key.
He was extremely responsive and patient throughout the whole process. He was willing to inform me about different lock types and how to make the house more secure. Whenever I called, he picked up and answered my numerous questions.
I would definitely recommend his services for all your security needs!

Chrisptoher was recommended by our contractor to replace/​restore door hardware on our 10 doors in our 100-​year old house. He takes what he does seriously, was really meticulous, made some good recommendations, showed up when said he would and our doors look great and work beautifully. what else do you need?

I called for an estimate on fixing my door and Christopher actually tried to help me over the phone to fix the problem without charging me! I don’t think you can find this kind of honesty with all home contractors and handymen out there.
