"Website Diane George Local Guide·10 reviews Garrett from lvl Locksmith is your best choice when choosing a locksmith. I didn't realize there is so much involved with re-keying locks, fixing a latch, making all your outside doors open with the same key, yada, yada, yada. Needless to say, Garrett had a response for all of my requests and didn't run the other way. He was simply incredible and handled all those tasks without blinking an eye and made a few suggestions that I hadn't even thought of. All this started when someone said my door handle was sticking. I asked Garrett several questions while he was there and I can tell you, he is honest, extremely knowledgeable and gets the job done quickly. He could have sold me a new door handle for the front door, which would have been expensive because there are 4 sets on the door, but he just fixed the latch for me for the time being. We know there's a possibility of it eventually needing to be replaced but we'll ride it out in the meantime. We look forward to using his service again and you definitely can feel comfortable calling lvl Locksmith as well. Thanks Garrett for your help!"

"Shimi did an excellent job repairing my sliding glass door and installing a new latch and lock. He was efficient and very professional about his work. I had been struggling with this door for a long time and now I can open and close with my pinky finger! I would use Fixit Pros again and refer to my friends!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Newer, electric-powered door locks generally have a life span of five years or less. That’s thanks, in large part, to a phenomenon called planned obsolescence, in which products are programmed to need replacing after a certain amount of time. That’s also why older, manual, push-key locksets can last up to 30 years with regular cleanings and maintenance. When it does come time for a new set-up, know that the cost to change locks ranges from $130 to $500 on average.

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.

Lock picking is a relatively subtle method of unauthorized access, making it hard to detect. But there are telltale signs to look for. First, look for scratches or tool marks around the keyhole or the lock's surface. Also, check for loose or misaligned components, like a wonky strike plate, which could indicate tampering. Consulting a locksmith or security professional for an assessment can provide valuable insights, too. Investing in high-quality locks and considering additional security measures, like security cameras, can help deter potential intruders and enhance your overall safety.

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.

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.
