"Very good in fact great. Called and they came next day. Very punctual. Pleasant to deal with. I would highly recommend Derrick’s locksmith. Spoke to Gary and he sent his son. Price is very good. They were the first one suggested from Angie’s List and called immediately. Didn’t have to go any further. Five ????? professional and price."

"Gerry was on time, and had the job done so quickly I joked with him about how fast it was done. Fair pricing. This was the second time I had used him, previously at a different residence a few years back, but it was only after I'd hired him for this one that I realized it was the same pro. . Definitely our 'go to' locksmith if we ever need help again!"

"Lost the keys to my 2023 Ram TRX and Allen from All Access Locksmith came out fast, unlocked the truck, and made me a brand new key fob on-site. Professional service and the new key works perfectly. Highly recommend!"

"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!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Keyless locks are often considered safer since they’re protected by passcodes instead of a physical key, making it harder to be picked. However, they are not infallible. And like all electronic devices, outdated models are more prone to problems and safety concerns. If you’ve experienced multiple lockouts in the past year, or your lock is responding slower than usual after you key in the passcode, it might be time to upgrade to a newer one. Even if your lock is working fine, you should still change your access code at least twice a year.

Begin by checking the power source, typically a battery or wired connection. Ensure the battery is installed correctly, has sufficient charge, and isn't corroded. If it's a wired lock, examine the electrical connections to confirm they are secure and free from damage. Additionally, inspect the lock's programming or settings. Confirm that user codes or access credentials are programmed correctly and that any remote control devices are paired and functional.

Typically, it can take around 15 minutes to rekey a lock. The time depends on the type of lock and how skilled you are at rekeying. The first time you rekey a lock, it may take a little longer. Once you get the hang of the process, it will move along much more quickly.

Security experts recommend deadbolt locks as the most secure option for a house's exterior or entry doors. Deadbolts provide the best security because they can prevent most types of forced entry and are harder to lockpick. Common types include the standard single-cylinder deadbolt, which is often found on front doors. For enhanced security, you can opt for a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate from both the inside and the outside.

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.
