"Got locked out of my home on a weekend, so I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly they responded to my request. Arrived within an hour and got me back in my house within 10 minutes of getting here. Mo was friendly and I’ll give them a call if I ever get myself in this situation again. Thank you!"

"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."

Charm's Security Hardware Inc

"First, all the people I encountered at Charms were lovely. They were pleasant friendly and experienced. While my keys were being made , two other people helped customers as they came in. One customer had a tricky issue with a security chip type key. Charms was able to help her and do so in less than 10 minutes. It is apparent that this store has not only survived but thrived because it has evolved. Tthe store still does conventional, basic key duplication, but also can help with technological advances with programmable keys and similar. I am sort of embarrassed to admit that I have been by the store likely thousands of times, but this was my first time visiting. I will certainly be back and will recommend Charms. they also have a mobile van that helps with on-site issues, and they sell a variety of commercial locks and locks for household applications. The store is truly a jewel and an asset to the community."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

There is a reason many commercial garages and storage facilities have roller garage doors. They stand out as one of the most secure options due to their unique design. The compact installation and absence of visible leverage points on the sturdy aluminum curtain make them a formidable obstacle for potential intruders. 

You may be able to get a broken key out of a lock by yourself, depending on the situation. If a portion of the key is still protruding from your lock, try lubricating the keyway and using pliers or even a bobby pin to pull the key out of the hole. If you have jigsaw blades handy, you can also try using those to grab onto the stuck key and pull it out. 

But, if neither option works or you can’t reach the key, your only option is to call a locksmith for help. 

Lubricating a door lock is an important part of door lock maintenance. It involves taking the lubricant of your choice (it’s best to use whatever the lock’s manufacturer suggests) and spraying it directly into the keyway. Push and pull your key in and out of the lock to make sure it’s all the way in. 

First thing first: Make sure you’re using the right key. If it’s the correct key for your lock, there are a few reasons why it may not be working, like the key is worn out or the lock is jammed. Try lubricating the lock and pushing the door closed to ensure the mechanisms work correctly. If you’re still locked out, call in for help.

In some cases this is possible, but it’s not advisable as the screwdriver is likely to leave marks all over the wall and a noticeable dent on the door. Move slowly and carefully if you have to use this method, and consider calling an emergency locksmith right away instead of trying to break in.
