"Nate is a real pro locksmith . Skilled and charges reasonable amounts . He repaired stuck deadbolt on kitchen door and also fixed front door lock that prior locksmith could not do. Wish I had called Nate first. He got this done plus re-keyed a lock ( all in about 30 minutes) and showed up when he said he would. He also pointed out things the first locksmith did wrong . He is a credit to the profession . THIS IS THE GUY TO CALL !"

"Stephen at Arizona Precision Locksmithing was outstanding from start to finish. He was professional, knowledgeable, and responded quickly when I needed help. He explained everything clearly, completed the job efficiently, and made sure everything worked perfectly before leaving. It?s hard to find someone who takes this much pride in their work, and Stephen definitely does. His attention to detail, fair pricing, and excellent customer service really set him apart. If you need a reliable locksmith, I highly recommend Arizona Precision Locksmithing. I won?t hesitate to call Stephen again in the future!"

"Excellent! Todd was at my house about 2 hours after my call to him. He was very kind, considerate, and professional. I would call again in a "heartbeat" and will recommend to anyone I know who needs a locksmith. He went so far as to make an extra key for opening the car door at no extra chare (just in case ignition key was locked inside)."

"If there was a rating above five stars they would have gotten it! Bob is so great!!! He’s fast, clean, respectful, and just awesome! He educate the client without making them feel as if they should have known in advance. He made everything so easy for me where to previous locksmiths failed to do that. When you called to make an appointment you speak to his lovely wife, Anne. She makes everything amazingly simple on her side and is a pleasure to speak with on top of it! They are an amazing duo and there is no way they could be better. Just call them now!"

Locksmiths FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you should always change your locks after buying a house. Do so as soon as possible after you move in. Otherwise, you won’t know who has working keys to the property, whether they’re spare keys or otherwise. If an intruder gains access to your house with a key, it may not be covered under your homeowners insurance.

Regrettably, entirely pick-proof locks don't exist unless you opt for keyless varieties. Locks advertised as "pick-proof" are, in reality, more resilient against lock-picking and bumping attempts because of complex mechanisms consisting of pins and sidebars. These locks work like this—they assign two tasks to the key, enhancing security by making unauthorized entry more challenging.

Smart deadbolts are a worthwhile investment for homeowners seeking more convenience, flexibility, and advanced features than a traditional deadbolt can provide. While a strong conventional deadbolt offers sufficient security for most, smart deadbolts provide significant upgrades.

Key benefits include keyless entry via smartphone, keypads, or biometric sensors, and the ability to lock or unlock your door remotely. You can also manage access for guests by creating temporary codes, eliminating the need for physical keys and the risk of them being lost or duplicated. Many models integrate with smart home systems and offer features like automatic locking, entry-exit monitoring, and tamper alerts with encryption for enhanced security.

However, there are downsides to consider. Smart deadbolts are more expensive than their traditional counterparts and rely on batteries and wireless networks to function. This dependency introduces potential vulnerabilities, such as hacking by skilled intruders and privacy concerns. Installation can also be more complex. Despite these drawbacks, the added layer of convenience and protection makes them a compelling option for many.

Most door knobs can be removed with a Phillips or flathead screwdriver. If you don’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.

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.
