Q: How long do digital door locks last?

• <div><p>Newer, electric-powered door locks generally have a life span of five years or less. That&rsquo;s thanks, in large part, to a phenomenon called planned obsolescence, in which products are programmed to need replacing after a certain amount of time. That&rsquo;s also why older, manual, push-key locksets can last up to 30 years with regular cleanings and maintenance. When it does come time for a new set-up, know that the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/change-door-locks-cost.htm">cost to change locks</a> ranges from <b>$130 to $500</b> on average. </p></div>

Q: What tool is used to remove door knobs?

• <div><p>Most door knobs can be removed with a Phillips or flathead screwdriver. If you don&rsquo;t have either of those available, a paper clip or small pin can sometimes work, but the extra effort may not be worth a quick trip to the hardware store.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if my key breaks in the lock?

• <div><p>First, maintain composure and avoid forcing it further. Inspect the key to see if enough material remains exposed for extraction. Use pliers or tweezers to grasp and gently pull out the broken piece if possible. Lubricate the keyhole with a graphite-based spray to aid removal. If self-removal proves challenging or risks damaging the lock, seek a professional locksmith's assistance. They possess the necessary tools and expertise to extract the key without causing damage.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to get a door lock service?

• <div><p>A door lock service is performed by a professional locksmith, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/keys-home-locksmith-assistance-and-costs.htm">the cost of hiring a locksmith</a> for these kinds of repair tasks usually runs in the <b>$100 to $250 </b>range. It all depends on the type of locks you have, how many locks are included in the service, and where your home is located. Always choose reliable, trustworthy locksmiths, and get a few quotes before making your choice. </p></div>

Q: What are the cost factors for hiring a locksmith?

• <div><p>Aside from the labor costs, several other factors can impact the cost of hiring a locksmith. If you can avoid services during off-hours, you can save on fees often charged for urgent requests. Consider additional factors such as:</p><ul><li><p>Type of services required</p></li><li><p>Emergency call fees</p></li><li><p>Home and lock location</p></li><li><p>Number of locks to repair or install</p></li><li><p>Peak hours</p></li><li><p>Type of locks </p></li></ul><p></p></div>
