Editorial Review

Our Take on Affordable Lock & Security Solutions

Affordable Lock & Security Solutions is the pick for safes, access control and commercial security, backed by a real Florida Avenue storefront and a 4.9 rating. Hours are weekdays only, so it is not an overnight lockout option.

Best forSafes, access control and commercial security work

What We Like

  • Storefront at 13908 N Florida Ave with a safe and hardware showroom
  • Says it has served Tampa Bay and Central Florida since 1970
  • 4.9 stars from 542 Google reviews with owner replies
  • Offers access control, safes, cameras, alarms and exit devices
  • Reviewers repeatedly praise technician Chohan for fast roadside help

Things to Consider

  • Google lists weekday hours only, 8:30 AM to 5 PM, closed Saturday and Sunday
  • A multi-branch Florida company, with a statewide 888 number rather than a Tampa line on its site
  • ALOA and Angi badges on its site were not verified with those organizations

Company Background

About Affordable Lock & Security Solutions

Affordable Lock & Security Solutions has a Tampa branch at 13908 N Florida Avenue, a storefront with a safe showroom and door hardware displays that show up in its Google photos. The company says it has served Tampa Bay and Central Florida since 1970 and describes itself as locally owned, with branches from Ocala to Sarasota and the Orlando area. Its Tampa page promises prompt response, clear explanations and no unnecessary upsells.

This is the broadest security company on the list. Beyond lockouts and key work, its site covers high-security door locks, key card access control, high-security safes, surveillance systems, burglar alarms, home automation, exit devices, automatic door operators and remote key fobs for cars and dealer keys. That range suits office managers, retail owners and homeowners who want one vendor for locks and cameras, and it is why this company ranks among the few here with a proper showroom.

Affordable Lock & Security Solutions holds 4.9 from 542 Google reviews, read October 29, 2026. Recent reviews are dominated by a technician named Chohan, praised for fast roadside help and for getting drivers back on the road, and the company replies to reviews. The company's site shows an ALOA badge and an Angi award, though we did not verify membership with either organization.

The trade-offs are practical. Google lists weekday hours of 8:30 AM to 5 PM and closed weekends, so a Saturday night lockout is not what this storefront is built for. The branch sits well north of downtown, and the main number is a statewide 888 line. Ask whether the Tampa branch or another office will dispatch.

This company suits businesses and homeowners planning a security upgrade, a safe purchase or access control, and drivers who need key fob work during weekday hours. It suits less well late-night emergencies. Before booking, ask for a written quote, whether the lockout is non-destructive, the warranty on parts and labour, and the technician's ID. Florida has no state locksmith licence and Hillsborough County follows state preemption, so ask for ID, a written quote and the local business tax receipt.

Affordable Lock & Security Solutions FAQs

  • Is Affordable Lock & Security Solutions licensed in Tampa?

    Florida has no state locksmith licence, and Hillsborough County follows state preemption, so there is no licence to look up. The company says its teams are licensed and its site displays an ALOA badge, which we did not verify. Ask for ID, a written quote and the local business tax receipt before work starts.

  • What are the hours at Affordable Lock & Security Solutions in Tampa?

    Google lists the Tampa storefront at 13908 N Florida Avenue as open 8:30 AM to 5 PM Monday through Friday and closed on weekends. The company's statewide number is 888-999-LOCK and the Tampa branch line on Google is (813) 232-7600. Call before an evening or weekend lockout to confirm what dispatch is available.

  • Does Affordable Lock & Security Solutions sell safes and install access control in Tampa?

    Yes, its website lists high-security safes, key card access control, surveillance systems, burglar alarms, exit devices and automatic door operators, and its Google photos show a safe showroom at the Tampa branch. Ask for a written quote that separates equipment from installation and spells out the warranty.

  • Is Affordable Lock & Security Solutions licensed and insured?

    We checked 0 of 2 credentials against the issuing authority. Verified items carry the date we checked; reported items are what the business told us and we could not independently confirm.

  • What areas does Affordable Lock & Security Solutions serve?

    Tampa. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.

  • Does Affordable Lock & Security Solutions offer emergency service?

    Warranty terms are not on file. Ask for them in writing before work starts.

  • How was this profile built?

    Credentials come from issuing authorities, ratings from the company's Google Business Profile with the date we read them, and the editorial take from our own review of estimates, warranty documents and public feedback. Anything the business told us is labelled as reported.

  • Can a business pay to improve its profile?

    A business can subscribe to manage its own listing details, and it can buy a labelled sponsored placement. Neither changes a ranking position or the editorial assessment on this page.
