"I just purchased a new home and needed to get the locks changed. I noticed that some of the locks and knobs were worn and shabby and decided to change them out. I also wanted to change a couple of them to lever style latches to make it easier to get through the door with full hands. Pro Locksmith called me within minutes of my placing my request at Angi. No one else called me. They were able to come out the same day and do this job, which is really unusual these days. We took a look at my various locks, and they recommended that I change them to a well-known, and highly regarded brand. I'd been researching locks a bit, and their recommendation echoed my own. They got the job done within an hour, which included a run to their shop to get the right locks. I received several duplicate keys and tested them on all the locks. They worked perfectly. This is a father and son operation, and have been here for 16 years. I was treated with respect, which I appreciated."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Lubricating a door lock is an important part of door lock maintenance. It involves taking the lubricant of your choice (it’s best to use whatever the lock’s manufacturer suggests) and spraying it directly into the keyway. Push and pull your key in and out of the lock to make sure it’s all the way in. 

When it comes to how to get a stuck key out of a lock, the simplest way is to use some kind of lubricating substance. One option is to apply graphite powder while wiggling the key gently. As the graphite fills the lock, jiggling should loosen the key enough to allow you to pull it out.

It could be difficult to get in and out of a lock for several reasons, such as the keyhole needing additional lubrication. Particles, debris, and dirt can also get into a lock, making a key stuck (the lubrication can help with the removal). 

If you don’t have your original key, the easiest way to obtain a copy is to call a locksmith. For house keys, your locksmith has several options for configuring a new key: 

  • They can input a lock’s identification code into a database to obtain key-cutting instructions.

  • They could analyze the lock cylinder to determine how to cut a new key.

  • They can create an impression of the lock cylinder from which to cut a new key. 

Rekeying is typically cheaper than replacing locks. Professional rekeying costs between $40 and $160, sometimes with an additional fee of $15 to $40 per lock. A locksmith's hourly rate averages around $75. If you do it yourself, a rekeying kit can cost as little as $10. In contrast, replacing a lock costs between $130 and $500, with an average of around $315, depending on the hardware and lock type. Rekeying is a simpler process that changes the key for your existing lock without replacing the hardware. It is a good option if you have a quality lock that works well, you've recently moved, you've lost a key, or you need a quick security upgrade. The best choice depends on the condition of your current locks.
