Knowells Lock & Safe, Inc. is parent company of libertysafesofnorthflorida.com. We have been in business since 1978. Luther Knowell, founder of our company, proudly served in the United States Navy and, after he retired, went to work for another local locksmith for 7 years. He would remark, Its nice to be able to make a living doing what I consider to be a hobby. He started Knowells Lock & Safe, Inc. out of the trunk of the familys car. It wasnt long before he started buying vans and hiring people (mostly family) to work with him. Today, we have 3 generations operating the family business.

We have purchased safes from knowell's on two separate occassions. They offer prompt professional service. They are extremely knowledgable and very careful when they deliver a safe. I would not order a safe from anyone else. They are one of those rare companies that excel at what they do.

I just purchased a Liberty Fatboy Jr. from Knowells and it's just what I needed! I had been looking for a safe for over a month when a co-worker recommended Liberty Safes. Geoff and his staff were instrumental in my decision to purchase the Fatboy Jr., and it's an AWESOME safe! I had Knowells professional installation team deliver and install my Fatboy Jr. Great job guys! No problems. Knowells expertise saved me time and money; I've heard several of my friends say they wished they had bought a bigger safe. But thanks to Geoff, I'm not one of those guys!



Whether a first time safe buyer like me, or an old hand, I highly recommend you visit Geoff and the staff at Knowells.

I purchased an American Security (Amsec) safe from Knowell's Lock and Safe. Although this was not a safe that they regularly carried in stock, Geoff Knowell was happy to order the exact item that I wanted. All together (including delivery and installation), the price was comparable to what I would have paid to get the same item drop shipped from an online retailer and then placed inside my office by a second party. I am very impressed with the service and value obtained from Knowell's. I highly recommend them for all safe and locksmith needs. They did an outstanding job of delivering and placing the safe. Moving a 1,300 lb safe over tile and wood floor, and around a tight corner is definitely a job for professionals, one that Knowell's accomplished without leaving so much as a smudge on a wall. I can't say enough about how pleased I am with this local business.

I never knew how many valuable...

I never knew how many valuables I had until my house was broken into. I cursed and hollered everyday that my husband bought our Liberty Safe from them. I now thank him everyday. We went in there at least five times before we bought the safe. Without their knowledge and patience, I would have lost everything. Thank You guys for my sense of security!

5 star service

I have a very old s&g safe I was unable to open with the combination. I called and spoke to Jeff and he supplied me with different suggestions on how to open and said I could call him back when I was in front of the safe. Once home I tried his suggestions and was unsuccessful. I called and spoke with Jeff and he walked me through the process and I was able to open the safe. I really appreciated his time and help. Jeff was helpful and patient. Because of Jeff, I will use this business when the time comes. Thanks Jeff ... you are a life saver to me...



Thanks,
