I was looking for a locksmith for a mailbox we continue to have issues with in my building. In my search I found this business and decided not to consider them after an employee or possibly owner was just recorded physically assaulting an elderly man, outside of their business location.

Very well. The locksmith was not only an excellent technician but a skilled salesman. I agreed to a much more complex lock than was necessary in my security building. Next time I would go with a moderate lock.

I found a company Paso Robles for the locks. My experience with this locksmith was very good. They had good service which makes me say that. I just needed a key re-keyed, that all it was.

"It is so important to find an honest, trustworthy locksmith and Alan is definitely the best in the business. He is a total professional and I trust him to re-key my whole house. I have used him on numerous occasions - basically whenever anything goes wrong with my locks- and have recommended him to colleagues and friends. All have had equally positive experiences with both quality of work and price. I would not believe that other reviewer."

"When I called GILRAM to get a price quote, he provided a price quote over the phone after I provided a description of the services needed. Other locksmith services I contacted said they could not give a price (or even a ballpark price) without first seeing the locks. GILRAM was honest, punctual, and very professional. The locks were re-keyed and spare keys made in under an hour. I would highly recommend GILRAM to anyone needing locksmith services!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

As with any computer, smart locks can be hacked by someone with the technical skills to do so, but most people do not have that ability, making smart locks relatively safe. If you have any concerns about a compromised smart lock, opt for an encrypted smart lock, change your Wi-Fi password, and make sure that you only give out your password to trusted family and friends.

Lock picking is a relatively subtle method of unauthorized access, making it hard to detect. But there are telltale signs to look for. First, look for scratches or tool marks around the keyhole or the lock's surface. Also, check for loose or misaligned components, like a wonky strike plate, which could indicate tampering. Consulting a locksmith or security professional for an assessment can provide valuable insights, too. Investing in high-quality locks and considering additional security measures, like security cameras, can help deter potential intruders and enhance your overall safety.

If you’re having an issue turning the key inside a lock, chances are there is dust or dirt buildup within the cylinder. The easiest solution is applying a dry lubricant to the lock, which loosens the dirt buildup. You may need to turn the key a few times for it to work properly again.

Commercial locksmith services range from $75 to $500, depending on the job's complexity, such as key duplication, lock installation, or access control system setup.
