"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."

"Our project was somewhat of a last minute repair from a kitchen demolition. Mr Vazquez responded quickly and kept in touch throughout the process. He and his crew were prompt and courteous. I would contract his services again."

Customers say: Quick response

"I've hired lots of contractors and home service providers over the years, but I've never had one work as hard as Jeffrey! I hired him to replace ten 12' tennis fence poles along with the accompanying top rails. Jeff busted his butt digging out the existing poles which were set in concrete, and then made sure each new pole was set in a 24" hole. He had minimal help from a laborer. Did most of the hard work himself. He was onsite every morning by 7:30am at the latest and gave a solid 8 hour+ day every day until the project was done. Jeff provided receipts for all materials purchased (how often does that happen?). His pricing was exceptionally fair given the effort and end result, which was excellent. Honest, friendly, hardworking, and a great completed job at the end . What else can ya ask for? Bravo Jeff!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

When you take a key to a hardware store or a locksmith for copying, you can expect the key-cutting process to take as little as 30 seconds. The key copier will review your current key to decide on the correct blank. Then, your original key and the blank are inserted into a key duplication machine to cut an exact key copy. When it’s all said and done, you can have a new key in your hand in just a couple of minutes.

Smart locks offer a similar level of safety to traditional or conventional locks because they often use comparable locking mechanisms, such as deadbolts. The primary difference is the access method: smart locks use a login or code instead of a physical key, which adds convenience. While not inherently safer, some smart locks have added security features that can deter intruders, like shutting down after too many incorrect code attempts or being harder to pick. For the best security, it's recommended to combine any lock with other home safety features like motion-activated lighting, security cameras, and window and door sensors.

It is best to use a dry lubricant, such as a Teflon-based option, for door locks. Unlike popular oil-based lubricants, dry lubricants leave a non-stick, water-repellent coating that does not attract dust, dirt, and other debris. Using an oil-based lubricant can cause these particles to build up inside the lock, making it difficult to operate or even damaging the internal mechanism. You can find dry lubricants, some of which are made specifically for locks, at most hardware stores.

You might want to change a door lock entry code for a handful of reasons. The most common answers are extra security or a forgotten code. You may also find yourself in a position where you need to temporarily change the code to allow a guest to come and go freely but want to switch it back once things return to normal.

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.
