"I only used the handyman service, but Tony was very nice and seemed knowledgable about current coding and safety requirements. He even fixed a door where a locksmith had done a poor job of installing a lock, leaving the door difficult to close. What was nice about that was that it was not even on my list of things for the handyman to fix and he didn't even charge me for the extra repair, saying it only took him a few minutes. I would certainly recommend the handyman service and I would consider using this company for larger jobs. UPDATE: I have had another great experience with TME for a second small project and I plan to use them for a larger project in the near future.
2nd UPDATE: I used TME for a couple of other projects and downgraded only the "A" rating for Price that I'd given them previously to a "B." I checked on the cost of the parts for the repairs and, combined with the few minutes of actual labor for one of the projects (changing the hot water regulator), I felt that I was overcharged and would have done better to call a plumber. I think the key difference was that I did not have them bid for the more recent projects; I simply hired them. I still recommend this company, but my advice is that you get a bid first and either check the prices for the parts needed or collect and compare other bids before deciding. Otherwise, you may pay too much."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Lock bumping is a technique locksmiths use to quickly and quietly open a pin tumbler lock, typically found in most types of deadbolts. It involves inserting a specially crafted key, or bump key, into the lock and tapping or "bumping" it with a mallet or similar tool. The force applied causes the lock's pins to jump momentarily, allowing the lock to be turned and opened. Unfortunately, thieves also use this technique to break into homes. Luckily, products like a deadbolt strap will fortify your lock.

In general, keyless door locks are considered safe, and their security depends on the type and quality of the lock. They cannot be picked like a traditional lock and often include added features like biometric access, PIN codes, and smartphone connectivity, which can make them more secure. However, they are not without risks. Potential vulnerabilities include hacking for Wi-Fi-connected models, battery failure, power outages, and technical malfunctions. To maximize security, it is important to choose a reliable brand, stay on top of software updates, and perform regular maintenance. While the risks are different, keyless locks are not considered more dangerous than traditional locks.

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.

First thing first: Make sure you’re using the right key. If it’s the correct key for your lock, there are a few reasons why it may not be working, like the key is worn out or the lock is jammed. Try lubricating the lock and pushing the door closed to ensure the mechanisms work correctly. If you’re still locked out, call in for help.

Using a combination of tools (often store-bought plumbing tools) and brute force, a burglar can easily snap the lock on a door. Snapping a lock aims to gain access to the cylinder inside, which holds the locking mechanism. Once the thief snaps the lock, they can pick the cylinder open and walk right in.
