Al and Neal Spencer
Al Spencer began his apprenticeship as a journeyman locksmith in 1972 earning $1.85 per hour long before the term “lock technician” became the re-engineered title in the profession. Within a year he became a store manager for a local safe and lock company until in 1976 he decided to launch his own business from the basement of his father’s house. With a van and a bag of tools Spencer’s Safe & Lock was off and running duplicating keys, installing deadbolts, Medeco Locks, automotive services, panic devices and safe opening and repairs providing many of the same products and services he offers today to the residential and commercial market in the Washington D.C. Metropolitan area.

In 1978, Al opened his first storefront in Herndon, Virginia and expanded his services beyond Northern Virginia to Maryland and Washington, D.C. adding commercial exit devices, lever sets, alarm locks, door bars, and safes as well as residential dead bolts, knob locks, door viewers, keyless entry pads, and personal safes to his growing list of products and services.
