"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!"

"I recently hired Budget Locksmith to replace the locks in my home, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The technician arrived on time, was very professional, and took the time to explain all the options for securing my house properly. He worked carefully and efficiently, making sure every lock was installed perfectly and everything was functioning smoothly. What I appreciated most was the honesty and fair pricing. There were no surprises, and the quality of the locks and the workmanship were outstanding. I immediately felt safer knowing my home was properly secured by a trusted professional. If you need lock replacement or any home security service, I highly recommend Budget Locksmith. Fast, reliable, professional, and affordable. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy locksmith. Thank you Budget Locksmith for the great service!"

"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

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.

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.

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.

Smart locks offer a similar level of safety to traditional or conventional locks because they often use comparable locking mechanisms, such as deadbolts. The primary difference is the access method: smart locks use a login or code instead of a physical key, which adds convenience. While not inherently safer, some smart locks have added security features that can deter intruders, like shutting down after too many incorrect code attempts or being harder to pick. For the best security, it's recommended to combine any lock with other home safety features like motion-activated lighting, security cameras, and window and door sensors.

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.
