"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

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.

The easiest way to pick a lock is by using a titanium rake pick. This type of lock pick comes in a variety of shapes used to simulate different key configurations but generally has a tip with a bent design. Rake picks are the most beginner-friendly lockpicks and the simplest to learn how to use.

Rekeying a lock changes the internal mechanism so that a new key works, while replacing a lock involves swapping out the entire hardware. Rekeying is a good, cost-effective option when you want to ensure old keys no longer work, such as after moving into a new home or losing a key. It's also ideal if you want to keep your existing lock hardware. You should opt to replace the locks entirely if you want to upgrade to a more secure or different style of lock, if the current lock is old or damaged, after a break-in, or if too many copies of the old key exist.

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.

Locksmiths offer keyless entry systems, high-security locks, panic bars, electronic access control, and biometric security solutions.
