" I'll paint the picture for you: I just got finished working an overnight shift on Christmas, which I had to spend hundreds of miles away from family, friends, and girlfriend. Nine out of ten things going wrong lately; not very inspiring times. Anyways, I stop at the bank to get my check made for the landlord and, thanks to a bit of brain fog, locked my keys in the car. I wound up spending six hours trying to get in, coming close a couple times, but no luck. Many people came and went in that parking lot and almost every one didn't stop to offer help or have any concern. Just a police officer who lent me some tools and another man who approached me and said he knew a locksmith that could take care of this in no time. I called and spoke with Brian and he assured me he would be there ASAP; it would be a little wait because he was taking care of a job on the other side of town. That was the best news I'd heard for some time, so I could stand to be patient. About an hour later he"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

You can cut a door knob off using a sawzall, but you risk causing additional damage to the door itself. You’ll also need to completely replace the door knob, costing you extra money and another trip to the hardware store.

Deadbolts are solid and durable as can be, but the pin and tumbler can still be forced open, thus making this type of lock susceptible to picking. Most types of deadbolts are harder to pick than a traditional spring-based lock, though. It requires a specialized lock pick and a tension wrench to align all of the pins, thus unlocking the door. 

Although you should rekey your locks after moving into a new home, you may feel more comfortable replacing the locks entirely. Here are some other scenarios when you should replace your locks rather than rekey them:

  • When someone moves out of your home.

  • There are too many copies of the existing key.

  • Your home experiences any type of break-in.

  • You lose your key with the address on it.

Whether or not keyless door locks are safe and trustworthy depends on the visibility of the programming code—and a trespasser’s determination. Even if you carefully guard entry and programming codes, those trying to break in may be able to crack open the lock’s faceplate with a screwdriver and change the codes. The same goes for manual models.

Some find smart locks the safest option because it’s harder to manipulate codes without access to your phone. But it’s possible to get hacked even then. Consider installing an extended security system, like door and window alarms or surveillance cameras, to enhance security.
