"I hired MIL USOS HANDYMAN LLC to help with assbme sports equipment and few other task. They did an absolutely phenomenal job. They arrived right on time, brought all their own tools, and were incredibly professional throughout the day. I was especially impressed by how clean they kept the work area and how efficiently they knocked out the list. The pricing was fair, transparent, and exactly what we agreed on before hand. It is hard to find reliable home repair help, but [Handyman's Name] is definitely our new go-to. I will absolutely hire them again for future projects!"

"The experience I got from Dave was very good. He was professional, arrived on time, was very knowledgeable, and most importantly, he did an excellent job repairing and remounting my fence gate doors. I'd certainly reengage him for all future handyman services, I strongly recommend him, and I'm happy to refer his services to anyone needing it."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

While lock crunching as a whole is not terribly common, it is one of the most frequently used means of forced entry into a home. Recent data suggests that forced entry through lock crunching or snapping occurs in more than 25% of burglaries.

In general, keyless door locks are considered safe, and their security depends on the type and quality of the lock. They cannot be picked like a traditional lock and often include added features like biometric access, PIN codes, and smartphone connectivity, which can make them more secure. However, they are not without risks. Potential vulnerabilities include hacking for Wi-Fi-connected models, battery failure, power outages, and technical malfunctions. To maximize security, it is important to choose a reliable brand, stay on top of software updates, and perform regular maintenance. While the risks are different, keyless locks are not considered more dangerous than traditional locks.

Locksmiths recommend changing your locks once every seven years for the best security at your home. Locks can wear out over time, so you should inspect your locks regularly. A higher grade lock provides you with more cycles than those with a lower grade.

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.

It is best to use a dry lubricant, such as a Teflon-based option, for door locks. Unlike popular oil-based lubricants, dry lubricants leave a non-stick, water-repellent coating that does not attract dust, dirt, and other debris. Using an oil-based lubricant can cause these particles to build up inside the lock, making it difficult to operate or even damaging the internal mechanism. You can find dry lubricants, some of which are made specifically for locks, at most hardware stores.
