Smart Lock & Door is a Waltham locksmith and door-repair shop that reviewers know simply as Harry โ the name customers use again and again for lock swaps, stuck doors, and hardware fixes. The company says it has been at this for 16 years, and its Thumbtack page shows a 4.8-star average across 693 ratings, with Top Pro recognition every year from 2018 through 2024. What stands out in the reviews is how fast the response is. In an April 2025 review, a customer called on a Friday afternoon ahead of a Saturday house inspection and had Harry show up a few hours later to fix two doors and a loose banister the same day โ the reviewer said you don't find a lot of people who'll do that. A more recent review, from August 2026, described a new door frame and lock installed at what the customer called reasonable pricing, and another from that same week mentioned an on-time lockout call where an extra lock was installed for an added charge. One reviewer specifically noted the crew swept up the workspace after fixing three doors that wouldn't stay shut on an older, settling house โ the kind of small detail that shows up when someone pays attention to the whole job, not just the fix. There's nothing negative on record here, and the reviews on file lean heavily toward lock and door repair rather than bigger remodeling work โ the business also lists door trim and threshold installation among its services, though that side isn't backed by reviews the way the lock and door work is. For a stuck door, a lockout, or a lock upgrade around Waltham, the record here points to quick turnaround and attentive work. For anything bigger, it's worth confirming pricing upfront, since at least one review mentions an add-on charge for extra work.

Harry was quick to give us a quote and change all the locks in our new home!! Great service!!
Very nice work on my doors needed new frame and locks very reasonable pricing as well!
We got locked out and the gentleman arrived on time to get the door unlocked. It was convenient that he also had an extra lock to install for an extra charge.
Three doors wouldn't stay closed due to our old house settling over time. The problem was fixed very quickly and without issue. I also appreciated that the workspace was swept up after finishing.
I had a house inspection on a Saturday. Had some doors that would not close and a loose bainster. I called Harry that Friday afternoon and he showed up a few hours later. He fixed both doors and the banister! You don't find a lot of people that will come do the work on the same day you call them. Can't thank Harry enough and would highley recommend him!
