Vietnam veteran with over 40 years of locksmith experience. We offer full service, mobile, and emergency locksmith work for commercial, automotive and residential clients. Originally from Beaverton, OR, we moved to Seaford 2 years ago to "slow down" life a bit. Previous owner and founder of Davis Lock and Safe in Oregon is a 5 time winner of the Angie's list Super Service Award! 10% off discount for Veterans.

"John had me contact his apprentice Ben to come out to the house. Ben was pleasant and professional. He explained the work he was doing, suggested other options as appropriate, and was transparent and fair with pricing. It was not an emergency call, but I was able to be scheduled within 24 hours of calling, which was unexpected but appreciated. I will be contacting Ben or John any time I need a locksmith and recommending them to my friends."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

While a strong conventional deadbolt offers enough security for most homeowners, if you’re looking for extra features beyond just simple locking, smart deadbolts are the way to go. Smart deadbolts allow for keyless entry using your phone or a code, remote access in case someone is locked out, and features like temporary access codes, automatic locking, tamper alerts and entry-exit monitoring. Smart deadbolts also come with downsides: they rely on batteries and wireless networks and are potentially vulnerable to hacking by skilled home intruders.

Standard residential deadbolt locks come with a steel bolt that locks your door into place using a key (or keypad) on one side and a thumb turn on the other. When you lock it, the bolt slides into a strike plate on your door jamb to secure your door shut.

The cost to rekey locks on your home is $40 to $100 plus $15 to $40 per lock. Rekeying means you can keep your existing locks but simply change the key. You’ll still need a pro to cut a new key and rekey the lock, but no new hardware is required. Rekeying is a good option if:

  • You need a quick way to upgrade your current locks

  • You have a quality lock that works well

  • You recently moved in and want to ensure you’re the only one with access

  • You lost a key

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.

The most secure lock for a front door is typically a deadbolt. There are many types of deadbolts to choose from, the most basic of which is the standard single-cylinder deadbolt. This is the lock you find installed on most front doors. For added security, you could go with a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate the lock from both the outside and the inside.
