"It is so important to find an honest, trustworthy locksmith and Alan is definitely the best in the business. He is a total professional and I trust him to re-key my whole house. I have used him on numerous occasions - basically whenever anything goes wrong with my locks- and have recommended him to colleagues and friends. All have had equally positive experiences with both quality of work and price. I would not believe that other reviewer."

"Eddie responded to my request very quickly! Eddie arrived on time and corrected my door issues. This is an early 1900's home and he knew how to work with old mortise locks with skeleton keys. Excellent job and he cleaned the area afterwards."

"When I called GILRAM to get a price quote, he provided a price quote over the phone after I provided a description of the services needed. Other locksmith services I contacted said they could not give a price (or even a ballpark price) without first seeing the locks. GILRAM was honest, punctual, and very professional. The locks were re-keyed and spare keys made in under an hour. I would highly recommend GILRAM to anyone needing locksmith services!"

"When I called to make appointment, I was told coupon was just to show up, but no work was included. The price quoted for the replacement car door key was higher than I had paid another locksmith in the past for mobile services. I'm not sure of the date, but it was when the coupon ran earlier this year.

"The lock was not repairable at our home, so Kevin said he would take the broken part in and have it done at a local locksmith's shop, however this shop is closed on Saturday.  Kevin will be back on Monday to take the part in then and he thought it would be repaired very easily and quickly.  In the meantime, Kevin tried to make sure the door would temporarily lock for us by "tweeking" the lock.  He found some problems with our door, not the lock now.  He spent quite a bit of time working on the door without any additional charge or complaints.  He worked tenaciously to make sure we were safe and secure in our home until the real repair could be completed on Monday.  I can't say enough about how impressed I am at the work ethic I observed in Kevin and his company!!  I will call them again anytime I need lock help.

Well, things have not gone well since I posted my first review.  Since then, we have been stood up twice for appointments that we made to complete the lock repair.  We have tried to contact the company 6 times by phone and have received the message that the mailbox for this phone number is full and we should try later.  We now feel that the company is either no longer there or that it was some kind of scam!  We are not happy with this company AT ALL and do not recommend them.  One additional problem, there is no address on our receipt so we cannot even go by the business and talk to someone.  We are now left with no choice but to contact another locksmith and try to resolve our lock problem which is a big one, as we cannot use our front door.  It will not open at all.  It is locked shut!!!!!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

You might assume that having two locks on one door will offer more protection than only one lock, but there may not be an advantage. While there’s nothing wrong with having two locks if you feel it’s best for your living situation, rest assured having one high-quality deadbolt installed correctly will offer a high level of protection.

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. 

If part of the key is protruding out of the lock, you can use a pair of needle-nosed pliers or tweezers to gently turn the key in the lock to open the door. If the key is fully inserted into the lock, you may also be able to use a key extractor to help turn the key into the unlocked position. 

But if the key breaks off halfway into the lock or you simply can’t reach it to help engage the unlocking mechanisms, you should probably call a professional.

If your door handle turns without opening, the most likely culprit is a loose or stripped spindle. This part connects the handles to the latch mechanism, and when it’s not properly engaged, turning the handle does nothing. Other issues might include a broken latch, loose screws, or even something small blocking an inner mechanism. In any case, it’s usually a matter of tightening, adjusting, or replacing a worn-out part inside the handle assembly—or calling in a professional to do it for you.

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.
