How do I hire a qualified home locksmith?

• <div><p>Find a vetted and trusted locksmith to work on your home so you can feel comfortable and safe. Hire a professional with these qualifications:</p><ul><li><p>Search a verified directory of locksmiths near you, like those on Angi. </p></li><li><p>Check for an <a href="https://www.aloa.org/">Associated Locksmiths of America (ALOA)</a> logo on their website or company logo.</p></li><li><p>Read company reviews. You can also check their social media pages.</p></li><li><p>Ask for a pro’s credentials, insurance, licensure, and customer testimonials. </p></li><li><p>Check if the locksmith is knowledgeable about various topics, from decorative locks to the newest technologies on the market.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

How often should you change your locks?

• <div><p>Locksmiths recommend changing your locks once every seven years for the best security at your home. Locks can wear out over time, so you should <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-keys-proper-door-lock-maintenance.htm">inspect your locks</a> regularly. A higher grade lock provides you with more cycles than those with a lower grade. </p></div>

Are smart door locks safe to use?

• <div><p>Smart door locks are safe to use and are usually considered safer than traditional locks with keys. While all electronic devices can be hacked, that doesn’t happen nearly as frequently in real life as people may think. You can also invest in multiple locks of different types for enhanced security so you don’t rely solely on one smart lock.</p></div>

Q: How do I fix an electronic door lock?

• <div><p>Begin by checking the power source, typically a battery or wired connection. Ensure the battery is installed correctly, has sufficient charge, and isn't corroded. If it's a wired lock, examine the electrical connections to confirm they are secure and free from damage. Additionally, inspect the lock's programming or settings. Confirm that user codes or access credentials are programmed correctly and that any remote control devices are paired and functional. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a deadbolt and a double lock?

• <div><p>There are different <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-deadbolts.htm">types of deadbolts</a>. The most common type is a single-cylinder deadbolt, which you may recognize on your front door. This type of lock has a keyhole on the outside and a thumb turn on the inside. A double-cylinder deadbolt has two locking mechanisms and requires a key to engage on the inside as well as the outside. </p></div>
