"I had an excellent experience with Carlos. I called four different locksmiths before finding him, and nobody could help me with reprogramming the key for my 2008 VW Beetle. From the moment I spoke with Carlos, I could tell he really knew what he was doing. He was confident, professional, and took the time to explain the process clearly. Volkswagen keys can be difficult to program, but Carlos handled the job quickly and efficiently without any problems. The key works perfectly now, and I’m honestly so relieved after dealing with so many dead ends before finding the right person. He was punctual, respectful, and his pricing was fair — especially considering the level of expertise required for the job. He saved me a lot of time, stress, and money compared to going through the dealership. It’s rare to find someone this knowledgeable, honest, and dependable. I highly recommend Carlos to anyone needing a locksmith or car key programming service, especially if you have a Volkswagen!"

"Wonderful process to work with Sam. I explained what I was needing and looking for. His VERY obvious knowledge in this industry never leads me wrong. I’m very confident in Sam’s skills in anything tech related. He’s fixed multiple devices such as laptops and iPads. The work is impeccable and very timely manner. He’s also educated myself and my office on security requirements and setting up our systems. I would (and will) hire him every time and lean on his guidance."

"ADT is the best company 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."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.

Locksmiths recommend changing your locks once every seven years for the best security at your home. Locks can wear out over time, so you should inspect your locks regularly. A higher grade lock provides you with more cycles than those with a lower grade.

You can cut a door knob off using a sawzall, but you risk causing additional damage to the door itself. You’ll also need to completely replace the door knob, costing you extra money and another trip to the hardware store.

There are several ways to add security to a sliding glass door. To start, install a rod or deadbolt lock instead of the flip-lock that comes standard with most sliding glass doors. Add a sensor to the door and monitor any activity through your home security system.

Finally, installing shatterproof window film will help keep the structural integrity of the glass if it cracks.

When it comes to how to get a stuck key out of a lock, the simplest way is to use some kind of lubricating substance. One option is to apply graphite powder while wiggling the key gently. As the graphite fills the lock, jiggling should loosen the key enough to allow you to pull it out.
