Customers say: Super punctual

"Owning a house built in 1930 means lots of repairs and upkeep, so over the past 30 years I've hired plenty of repair folks and handymen to solve my various household repairs. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you, with genuine pleasure, that Gil Bussanich and Eddy Rios from Mr. Handyman, are hands down the most skilled, punctual, helpful, experienced, honest, expert, reasonably priced and efficient repair guys I've ever dealt with -- period. I interviewed or called or checked out nearly a dozen companies or individuals to address my repair issue and few of them struck me as being very experienced in dealing with my particular repair need. Few sounded interested in dealing with locating a new a/c-heating unit which would fit into the existing wall sleeve -- but the instant I spoke with Jeffrey at Mr. Handyman I had hope I'd finally found the right company. Jeffrey couldn't wait to send me his top guys to solve my problem. From beginning to end this company does their job in a way that exceeds my high expectations. Gil insisted on personally eyeballing the 27-year-old unit to be replaced and took great pains to take every single measurement imaginable to make absolutely sure that the replacement unit would fit perfectly into the sleeve, thus sparing me the big expense of having to tear out the sleeve and install a new one. Gil, a low-key, folksy perfectionist, took the time necessary to search for a unit with the right BTUs, the required features, and the right price. And when the job was nearly complete Gil realized I'd probably have to call my city's Public Works department and pay to have them haul away the bulky old a/c unit. But then he remembered that there's a place out near where he lives where large discarded stuff can be dropped off and taken to the dump -- he told me not to worry, he'd take care of it for me. That Gil is the kind of man to make that kindly offer is certainly one reason to call Mr. Handyman the next time you have a household repair to take care of. But it's only one of many reasons to let Gil and Eddy and their Mr. Handyman company fix what needs fixing in your home."

Customers say: True professional

"Derek fixed my folding laundry room doors.. I thought that they were literally gone. I was prepared to throw them away and buy new ones. "Nope, I can fix this." Derek said. And he did. They work better now than when I initially bought them. Derek is friendly, smart and very knowledgeable. I could not imagine how he was going to fix my plantation shutters. Once again, he was able to repair them, I have some flooring that I need to replace and I am making a plan with Derek to do that as well. I do not think that there is anything that Derek can not fix. I am so happy that I found Derek. This is my first time using Angie's List. If Derek is the type of professional that is on Angie's List, I will use nothing else. Five Stars to Derek at Local Home Services."

"ADT is the best company to talk to in terms of security alarm. Being a locksmith myself I know how important it is to deal with the right people. I referred a lot of customers to them and so far they are happy with their service. I myself got one for my house. Thank you for a consistent service and great deal."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s possible, but depends on the design of your lock. Some door locks that lack a keyhole do boast a small hole on the exterior handle or knob. This hole’s primary function is to allow water to drain out of the lock, in addition to giving homeowners an easy spot to insert lubrication. However, you can typically use a paperclip in this pinhole to unlock the door by manipulating the mechanism inside. 

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.

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.

Rekeying should be done when employees leave or keys are lost, while replacement may be necessary for outdated or damaged locks.
