Editorial Review
Our Take on Locksmith A. Brisson Inc.
A long-running family shop with a real storefront, an authorized Mul-T-Lock line and rare in-house intercom work. The 4.8 rating is solid on a modest review count. Weekday-only hours are the trade-off.

Company Background
About Locksmith A. Brisson Inc.
Locksmith A. Brisson Inc. has operated in Montreal-Nord on Rue de Charleroi since 1986, and the company describes itself as a family business where the trade is handed from father to son. That history shows in the way the shop works. You can walk in with a damaged lock or a broken key and have it adjusted or repaired on the spot, or call and have a mobile unit sent to your door.
The work covers three kinds of customers. Homeowners get key copying, lock changes, door hardware, mailbox installation, safes, door chimes and electronic access. Businesses and property managers get steel doors and frames, fire-rated doors, panic bars for emergency exits, push-button locks, automatic door closers and accessibility push buttons. Industrial clients get proximity readers, access cards and heavier-duty hardware. The shop also installs, repairs and replaces audio and video intercom systems for apartment buildings and condos, which is a specialty many locksmiths skip.
Reviewers back this up. Frank called about a smart lock and wrote that Andre and Alex did a quick, easy install and shared useful tips. Another customer thought a lock had failed, expected to buy a new one, and was charged less than the price of a replacement after the lock was repaired and the keys reset. A third praised fast service and knowledgeable technicians. The 4.8 rating from 72 Google reviews, read 2026-10-28, is strong, though most reviews are short and a few are several years old. One reviewer had trouble getting copies of keys for some imported makes, so ask first if your key is unusual.
The company lists a Bureau de la securite privee permit for locksmith and electronic security agencies, Quebec building board (RBQ) licence 5835-9175-01, membership in the AGAPQ business association since 2005, and a partnership with Alcumus for health and safety management. It is an authorized Mul-T-Lock distributor.
Locksmith A. Brisson Inc. suits Montreal homeowners, landlords and small businesses that want an established shop with a physical counter. It suits less well anyone who needs a lockout opened on a weekend or at night, since posted hours are weekdays only and the site does not advertise 24 hour service. Before booking, ask for a written quote or service-call fee, whether a technician arrives in a marked vehicle with ID, whether entry is non-destructive, what warranty covers parts and labour, and confirm the agency permit at bsp.gouv.qc.ca.
