"I would like to recognize employee Doug A at SafeStreet/ADT. We’ve had an old security system sitting in our house for over 15 years without service or functionality. He took the time to explain the differences between how the old systems work and how the new systems work. He was patient with us, and we are happy customers."

"Ronsmith was very prompt and responsive, and reasonably priced. I was able to purchase the door hardware that I needed from the manufacturer so I no longer needed the services of a locksmith but I will definitely call him in the future when the need arises."

The Big Deal was to change out 5 locks for $89.  I have 3 doors leading from house to exterior with keyed locks on both sides (which means a key is needed to open the lock from the outside and same key is needed to unlock from inside the house), 1 door from house into garage (key needed only on garage side) and 1 door from garage to exterior (key needed only on exterior) - a total of 5 doors.  When I called Bob with El Cheapo Locksmith to schedule an appointment, I learned from him that each side needing a key counts as 1 lock, so instead of getting all 5 doors done for $89 which I had original thought, I had to pay an extra $20 per lock for 3 locks for a total of $60 extra!  The total for the entire job is $145 - a lot different from $89! 

On the day of the appt, Bob was late and I didn't receive a call from him to tell me he would be late.  So I called him and said that we had talked the day before to schedule the appt and since he was driving, he asked for me to text him my address and the agreed upon date/time of appt (which I did immediately after we hung up).  He said he did not get the text and asked for me to resend, which I did.  He ended up coming to my house on the day of the appointment, but a few hours later than the original scheduled time.

Although Bob did a good job in changing out the locks, the charges for extra locks should have been clearer in the description of The Big Deal.  Angie's List needs to work with the contractors in providing a more descriptive list of services to be covered in the deal.  Oftentimes, the description lacks clarity and really needs a more detailed list of inclusions & exclusions of the deal.  In this particular case, most of us who are not locksmiths will not know that a lock needing keys on each side is considered 2 separate locks (even though mine uses the same key)!

Overall, the actual changing of the locks was executed well, but the clean up at the end could use improvement.  Bob did do some clean up, but there were still some grease smudges on door knobs or the door itself which I had to clean.  I also had to vacuum steel shavings off the floor & other areas (like our kitchen counters) when the locks were removed and needed a temp place to land.  When I tried out the new keys, grease would be all over my hands because of the greasing of the new locks.  Bob did tell me that he put a lot of grease into the new locks, but didn't know what that meant.  I later learned that meant "carry a wet wipe the first few times of locking/unlocking the doors so you can clean your hands".  Again, non-locksmith people will not know this automatically.  These may seem like minor details, but homeowners expect to be informed.  Unpleasant surprises become annoyances and that's what most customers will remember.

Despite the above, I would probably use El Cheapo Locksmith again because Bob seems to be an honest, hard-working guy, that will use my feedback here to improve his business.

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Security experts recommend deadbolt locks as the most secure option for a house's exterior or entry doors. Deadbolts provide the best security because they can prevent most types of forced entry and are harder to lockpick. Common types include the standard single-cylinder deadbolt, which is often found on front doors. For enhanced security, you can opt for a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate from both the inside and the outside.

Security systems are one of the measures that deter burglars the most. Research suggests most burglars look for signs of a security system before going in, although the presence of a security system doesn’t automatically mean they won’t enter the home. However, a security system with cameras can decrease the chance of a burglary overall.

Yes, you should change the locks as soon as you can after completing the purchase of a house. This is a matter of privacy and security, as you have no idea how many copies of the keys the previous owner made. You can change the locks yourself or hire a pro to replace or rekey the lock, which costs $50 to $100.

Keyless locks are often considered safer since they’re protected by passcodes instead of a physical key, making it harder to be picked. However, they are not infallible. And like all electronic devices, outdated models are more prone to problems and safety concerns. If you’ve experienced multiple lockouts in the past year, or your lock is responding slower than usual after you key in the passcode, it might be time to upgrade to a newer one. Even if your lock is working fine, you should still change your access code at least twice a year.

A keypad deadbolt, a lock requiring a code entered on a keypad entry, can be a convenient option for families with children coming in and out and needing access to the home. It can also offer an easy solution if you rent your home out, since you can easily change the code as needed. So, depending on your home entry’s needs, a keypad deadbolt may be worth the extra expense.
