About Timchak Safe & Lock

About the Owner, Gary Timchak

I started my locksmithing career in 1997 in North Pole, Alaska. In 1999, I moved back to Pittsburgh, PA, and worked for Safemasters as their lead safe and vault technician until 2003. Shortly after leaving Safemasters in 2003, I joined the team at Robert Morris University as their lead locksmith and stayed there until 2021.

While I enjoyed working for other companies, I always wanted to have my own business, so I established Timchak Safe & Lock, LLC in 2003. It wasn’t my full-time focus until May 2021, but becoming my own boss was the right choice, and I’m very proud that the people of Pittsburgh, PA, and the surrounding metro region can count on us to provide them with a wide range of locksmith services.

Timchak Safe & Lock is a veteran-owned and family-operated business offering safe, automotive, residential, commercial, and commercial/industrial locksmith services. We specialize in safe and vault openings, as well as safe sales, repairs, and moving/relocation. Automotive and motorcycle customers can count on us to cut/duplicate and program high-security keys, fobs, remotes, and other chipped keys. We also provide a range of access control and security services for residential and commercial clients.

I couldn’t open my home safe and called Gary for help. Instead of pushing a paid service, he patiently walked me through steps over the phone so I could fix it myself and it worked!

I really appreciated his honesty, knowledge, and willingness to help without expecting anything in return. That kind of integrity is rare these days. Highly recommend Gary!
Response from the owner:Hi Lisa,

Gary is the best! I was able to schedule an appointment via text, and show him pictures of the locks I needed rekeyed. Gary showed up the next day on time and had the job done in a few hours. He was professional and kind. 10/10 recommend and I would hire again!

Well, I did it again…locked myself out of the house & Timchak bailed me out again. Gary is absolutely the best in the business! Fair prices, extremely knowledgeable & just an all around genuinely helpful guy. He even called Anderson for me to get information on ordering a new lock for my door. He has gone above & beyond for me twice now. 5 star service, highly recommend!!
