"Amazing and quick customer service. Corey came to my rescue to replace my lost car key, when my car dealer didnâ t respond. He is very friendly and professional and helped turn a stressful situation into a fun learning experience. I have continued to use him and his expert team of locksmiths to rekey all the doors in my home, and install security locks at my cabin. Very honest and reasonably priced. I highly recommend them."

"Tony and his crew did an excellent job. We needed to cut cabinets up to a new height, modify cabinet doors to match other cabinetry, remove a small wall divider, move a light switch, repair drywall and paint, patch and repair flooring impacted by the work done. We are very satisfied with the results and wouldn't hesitate to hire TME Construction for future home projects."

"My boyfriend Brandon and I recently just bought a house, and Richard Williams helped us have some peace of mind. He gave us some deals in installations fees, and helped us figure out what we wanted for our house and not just trying to sell us the best of the best. We started off basic with the hopes of moving it to a new larger house with advance systems you can upgrade to. Richard was awesome and recommend him to anyone! Was installed exactly when scheduled, and the tech was very helpful on the training. Can't go wrong here if you are looking for a security system with impeccable service."

"I’ve had Mr. Handyman do work at a number of my houses over the years, and they always provide the best of the best service. I am not willing to risk the safety of my family or the quality of my home to an unknown, unlicensed handyman service, and the handymen at Mr. Handyman are all background-checked and guaranteed. Cannot recommend them enough!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes. Most deadbolts purchased from a home improvement store include a step-by-step installation template that is easy to follow, even for novice DIYers. One of the most important steps for successful deadbolt installation is having the proper tools to start with and carefully measuring prior to any attempts at installation.

Over time, latch components may wear out or get grimy, leading to this problem. First, check for dirt, dust, or debris in the latch mechanism to ensure smooth operation. Use an aerosol duster and lubricant to clean and loosen. You may also need to tighten the screws in the component, adjust the strike plate, or replace the lock. If none of these steps resolve the problem, consult a professional locksmith.

There are many types of deadbolts, but these tips work on most. First, address any grime buildup. A bit of WD-40 will loose up rust and dirt so the deadbolt can turn. Inspect the door and frame alignment if this doesn't resolve the issue. Adjust the strike plate or the deadbolt's position to improve alignment. If the problem persists, disassemble the lock to inspect for damaged or worn parts. If you are unsure how to do it, hire a local locksmith.

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.

The benefit of deadbolt locks is that they're much harder to force open than simple locks with pin tumbler mechanisms, so they may offer added security. This feature is why many locksmiths recommend deadbolts for home security. For many households, this added protection and peace of mind is well worth the cost of installing a deadbolt.
