"5/5 An actual locksmith (not a marketing service) who provided fantastic service and was extremely professional. I must have called 10 companies before speaking with Andrew, and each one let me down or was a marketing company just trying to push the lead. This is an actual locksmith who will help you, charge fairly and get the job done quickly. Thanks again for the fast work and best of luck in your growing business!"

"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 !"

"Awesome Service! Got locked out of my house and called [Arizona Precision Locksmith and they showed up super fast and got me back in without any hassle. Super friendly and easy to talk to, and he clearly knew what he was doing. No surprise charges or anything shady—just quick, honest work. I was really stressed out, but they made the whole thing way less of a nightmare. Definitely keeping their number in my phone. If you need a locksmith, these are the people to call!"

"While Johnny Locksmith gave a window for arrival time they called to update me on their ETA. The tech was well versed in what needed to be done & the job was completed in far less time that I anticipated. I highly recommend Johnny Locksmith."

"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)."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Any type of dead bolt lock provides the highest level of safety for a single device. However, it’s also important to determine a lock's grade. Locks can come in either Grade 1, Grade 2, or Grade 3, which indicates how durable it is and if it’s constructed solidly. Safety experts recommend choosing locks based on Grade 1, which offers the highest level of durability.

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.

When the temps drop, sometimes you need to thaw a lock to regain access. Options include warming the key with warm water, applying a de-icing spray, or using a hair dryer on low heat. Avoid using boiling water to prevent damage. To prevent future freezing, consider installing a cover or shield over the lock to keep water and ice out. Remember to be patient and gentle during thawing to avoid damaging the lock or key. If all else fails, consult a professional locksmith.

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.

Rekeying door locks yourself costs a fraction of what you would expect to pay a locksmith. On average, it costs between $50 to $100 to hire a local locksmith to rekey your house, though labor costs may vary based on where you live. For a DIY solution, you can expect to spend $11 to $25 on a rekeying kit.
