We were heading out of town and were leaving our key for the house sitter. To make cwertain, Nancy stuck one of our several house keys in the front door and it stuck. We removed the knob and pulled and tugged and cussed and wiggled but – like Br’er Rabbit in the Tar Baby – it was stuck.
You hate to go away with no doorknob on your front door, so we called Brown’s Lock and Safe. They said they would be out at our house the next day at 9 AM – and they were!
I can’t tell you the last time someone in the service industry was on time. Sometimes they don’t come at all, sometimes it’s 30 minutes late. Fifteen minutes late is good. But at exactly 9 AM a young man named Mike was tapping on our door. An hour later he had solved our problem, made new keys that fit perfectly, checked, and serviced all our other locks and was gone.
Wow! Honest-to-goodness service.!
