"Needed to have several doors re-keyed for my daughter's new home. Had terrible experience with another "locksmith" and did not use them. Called West Hartford Lock, my husband spoke with the office manage, Kathy Cerruto. Could not have been nicer, more professional, or more helpful. Someone went to my daughter's a few days later and re-keyed several locks in not too much time. VERY reasonable. Would absolutely recommend and use them again."

"I was so lucky to find Zoe's ProEdge! Kelly, one of the owners, saved the day on several last minute projects that arose when selling my home. She arrived promptly at the scheduled time each day, was kind, considerate, focused and her work is impeccable. Especially important to me, Kelly offered creative solutions to problems throughout. At the end of each day, the areas she occupied were cleaned and spotless. I would use Zoe's again without hesitation!"

Family owned. Additional email - [email protected]. Additional DBAs - Hoffman Audi, Hoffman Auto Group, Hoffman Porsche, Hoffman Saab.

"Leased car and routine maintenance. 1 recall, brought it in 2x for the same recall, each time they had it 2-3 days. Each time they didn't have the part. Had problems at the end of the lease and the manager did not return several phone calls. They were very attentive when we were looking for a car, it fell off quickly once the deal was signed. The Audi was great but the dealer was NOT. Go to another dealer who cares about your business."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

The best type of deadbolt depends on your specific needs. If accessibility is your primary concern, a single-cylinder deadbolt is the easiest to operate. Mortise locks are likely the most secure type of deadbolt you can install, but single-cylinders combined with secondary locking mechanisms like vertical locks are also a great option. Smart locks will give you the most flexibility to open and close your locks whenever and wherever you need to. 

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

Although you should rekey your locks after moving into a new home, you may feel more comfortable replacing the locks entirely. Here are some other scenarios when you should replace your locks rather than rekey them:

  • When someone moves out of your home.

  • There are too many copies of the existing key.

  • Your home experiences any type of break-in.

  • You lose your key with the address on it.

Security experts recommend deadbolt door locks on entry doors because they provide the best security. Deadbolts can prevent most types of forced entry and make your doors harder to lockpick.
