"I saw Gerry's reviews online and needed help with both installing a scmartlock, but also assisting in fixing the rent strike plate opening to allow the smart lock to close easily. I initially sent a message on Angie's list messaging and he quickly responded. He was good about responding through this means in a very timely manner. The day of the appointment he texted me with and ETA. After explaining the issue with the door and the deadbolt having trouble closing (unless you pull the door in slightly) and giving him the new smart lock, he began work. He was focused and did a great job. I would hire him again if I needed locksmith type work done."

"I can't recommend Kevin enough! He’s been an absolute lifesaver with all the work he’s done around my house. He repaired my entire fence, installed a new bathroom sink, fixed the garbage disposal, and even worked on my gate door, outlets, and outside lights. Kevin is incredibly honest, reliable, and responsible – everything you want in a handyman. It’s clear he takes pride in his work, and I’m beyond impressed with the results. If you’re looking for someone who gets the job done right, Kevin’s your guy!"

"Highly recommend Nahoom. Punctual, honest, reliable and most of all, he takes time to explain everything from start to finish. In my case, the job I hired him for turned out to be time consuming and extremely cumbersome to accomplish. He never shied away from it and tacked it with no hesitation. He had to reconfigure an existing hurricane door lock and handle. This door is made of aluminum and metal. He made sure it was done 100% right. I will definitely be using Nahoom for future jobs. So glad I found such a detailed and reliable pro. Five star +++++"

"Garfield Locksmith and Painting service was way beyond of what I expected. Professional, explains the job details to you, answers any questions that you may have with patients. Mr. Garfield was in and out with percussion. I would definitely recommend his business to others."

"Our dealings with Protect Your Home/ADT were delightful. We received a call back very fast after requesting a quote through Angie's List. We were able to complete everything on the phone; there was no paperwork or downtime. I had to call Customer Service with a question about the keypad, and they ended up telling me other helpful details on top of my original question."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Using a combination of tools (often store-bought plumbing tools) and brute force, a burglar can easily snap the lock on a door. Snapping a lock aims to gain access to the cylinder inside, which holds the locking mechanism. Once the thief snaps the lock, they can pick the cylinder open and walk right in.

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.

Yes, you should change the locks as soon as you can after completing the purchase of a house. This is a matter of privacy and security, as you have no idea how many copies of the keys the previous owner made. You can change the locks yourself or hire a pro to replace or rekey the lock, which costs $50 to $100.

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.

When the temps drop, sometimes you need to thaw a lock to regain access. Options include warming the key with warm water, applying a de-icing spray, or using a hair dryer on low heat. Avoid using boiling water to prevent damage. To prevent future freezing, consider installing a cover or shield over the lock to keep water and ice out. Remember to be patient and gentle during thawing to avoid damaging the lock or key. If all else fails, consult a professional locksmith.
