"they said they were going to show up Monday at 9am, after a brief delay not due to them they were here shortly after. he looked at the door and said it wasn't a problem. he proceeded to the store at which he called and stated that he could just get the hinges instead of the whole door and hardware. of course I agreed resulting in saving money. once he returned the door was fixed in a short amount of time. very polite and professional. would definitely use Edgyver again if I have any more handyman projects. thank you to them for doing a great job."

"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."

"I couldn?t be happier with my experience with Security Safe Company and Jeremiah! From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They installed my new camera system, alarm system, and a whole home generator, and the quality of their work is outstanding. Jeremiah took the time to explain everything in detail and made sure I was comfortable with how everything operates. It?s rare to find a company that delivers this level of service and care. I highly recommend Security Safe Company to anyone looking for true peace of mind and top-notch service!"

"I'd give John 20 stars if I could!! So far, he has completed several repair jobs (large and small) on my 45 year old home and is also tackling some significant landscaping projects. John is professional, responsive, multi-talented and a pleasure to work with. He is simply the BEST! I've already booked my next repair project with him."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Always consider security a top priority in your home. Perform a safety inspection of your home. Look for broken locks and rusty deadbolts, and take an inventory of who has access to your keys.

Consider the locks on your shed, safe, and other household items. Professional locksmiths can help you determine the best safety and security options for your home and feel at ease.

When a locksmith comes to your home, ensure your safety by having the locksmith show identification and provide an itemized invoice that you can reference later.

A deadbolt differs from a regular lock in its design, construction, and security level. Regular locks are typically used for interior doors, such as for bedrooms and bathrooms, and provide minimal security. They are easy to install and use, often featuring a simple locking mechanism on the inside. In contrast, a deadbolt is one of the most secure locks you can install on an exterior door. Its internal construction is designed to withstand significant force, adding a crucial layer of security that can deter intruders. While deadbolts may be more expensive and complicated to install, they are cost-effective for the security they provide and are built to hold up to wear and tear.

Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.

Over time, latch components may wear out or get grimy, leading to this problem. First, check for dirt, dust, or debris in the latch mechanism to ensure smooth operation. Use an aerosol duster and lubricant to clean and loosen. You may also need to tighten the screws in the component, adjust the strike plate, or replace the lock. If none of these steps resolve the problem, consult a professional locksmith.

A door lock service is performed by a professional locksmith, and the cost of hiring a locksmith for these kinds of repair tasks usually runs in the $100 to $250 range. It all depends on the type of locks you have, how many locks are included in the service, and where your home is located. Always choose reliable, trustworthy locksmiths, and get a few quotes before making your choice.
