"I had the pleasure of working with Felipe (and his son), I couldn’t be happier with the results! They installed my interior doors with the utmost professionalism, ensuring every detail was perfect. What truly stood out was their willingness to go above and beyond, taking care of little extras without charging me a dime. Their attention to detail, expertise, and commitment to delivering high-quality work were remarkable. Not only were they skilled, but they also kept the workspace clean and were a joy to have around. I highly recommend Felipe to anyone looking for top-notch service. Thank you for exceeding my expectations!"

"Walter and Glen at Protect Your Home Group with ADT are the best people 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."

"Gregorio was the craftsman who performed the work at our house and he did very precise and professional work.  Everything was done just as requested, he was there when he said he would be,work was done when it was supposed to be done.  The patio decking presented some specific challenges, but Gregorio was able to figure out a way to do it and it came out perfect.  I would highly recommend the services of Kyle Beym Home Improvements.

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Newer, electric-powered door locks generally have a life span of five years or less. That’s thanks, in large part, to a phenomenon called planned obsolescence, in which products are programmed to need replacing after a certain amount of time. That’s also why older, manual, push-key locksets can last up to 30 years with regular cleanings and maintenance. When it does come time for a new set-up, know that the cost to change locks ranges from $130 to $500 on average.

Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.

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.

Yes, many locksmiths offer 24/7 emergency services for business lockouts, broken keys, and security breaches.

Always consider security a top priority in your home. Perform a safety inspection of your home. Look for broken locks and rusty deadbolts, and take an inventory of who has access to your keys.

Consider the locks on your shed, safe, and other household items. Professional locksmiths can help you determine the best safety and security options for your home and feel at ease.

When a locksmith comes to your home, ensure your safety by having the locksmith show identification and provide an itemized invoice that you can reference later.
