My name is Anas Ertimeh, and I am the founder of Allegiance Locksmith. My story begins in the hills of Amman, Jordan, where I grew up watching my father work tirelessly to provide for our family. Though we didn’t have much, we had each other, and my father’s work ethic left an indelible mark on me. He taught me the value of service, the dignity in honest work, and the importance of showing up when people need you the most.
In 2014, my family came to the United States with two suitcases, a few hundred dollars, and an unshakable determination to build a better life. I landed in Houston, Texas; a city brimming with diversity, opportunity, and resilience. At first, I took on odd jobs: serving tables, towing vehicles, working late hours just to make ends meet. It was during one of those late nights, being locked out of my car after a long shift at work that I discovered my calling.
I was tired, stressed, and desperate when a kind locksmith came and helped me in my time of need. It was at that point that I realized how critical it is to have someone dependable in those unexpected moments. That experience planted the seed. I saved up, studied, trained, and became certified. In 2021, I founded Allegiance Locksmith with a second-hand van, a basic toolkit, and a drive to serve the community.
Today, Allegiance Locksmith operates a fleet of fully equipped vehicles, serving customers across the Greater Houston area 24/7. Our team is made up of licensed, insured, and background-checked technicians who share the same core values I brought from Jordan: honesty, hard work, and humanity.
Our vision has never wavered: to be the helping hand that shows up when others can't. Whether it’s a young parent locked out of their home in the middle of the night or a business owner needing urgent rekeying after a break-in, we respond with speed, care, and professionalism. "Anytime, Anywhere, Allegiance will be there" isn’t just our motto, it is the embodiment of our principles.
Every lock we open is a reminder of the doors that opened for me in this country. Allegiance isn’t just about unlocking doors; it’s about unlocking trust, safety, and peace of mind.
We’re proud to serve Houston, and we’re here whenever you need us: rain or shine, day or night.
