"I called Stephen at "A Born Locksmith" to discuss his fee for work on my father-in-laws Pontiac G6. I asked him to explain to me what work was performed as the request was to gain access to the car. He indicated he had to go inside the door panel and align the mechanism so the outside door handle would work. He said all of his work was inside the door panel. The door will open now but only from the outside. He indicated it would have to go to someone else for the additional repair. He taped up the door handle on the inside of the car, so my 84 year old father-in-law has to reach through his window to open his door (I guess he completed the work he was requested to do). He was onsite doing this work for approximately 1 hour, replaced no parts other than cutting a new key that was not requested, and charged $325. His charges were not discussed up front and my father-in-law was quite surprised at his charges. I frankly believe he was taking advantage of an elderly individual. My father-in-law and I are appalled at his charges. When I spoke to him he never offered to reimburse anything and was quite rude in his response. Please do not call this company (individual) as he indicates he is A+ accredited on his profile. He clearly is not rated by BBB at an A+ and is way over priced especially to the elderly. He should be ashamed of himself."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

The benefit of deadbolt locks is that they're much harder to force open than simple locks with pin tumbler mechanisms, so they may offer added security. This feature is why many locksmiths recommend deadbolts for home security. For many households, this added protection and peace of mind is well worth the cost of installing a deadbolt.

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.

In general, keyless door locks are considered safe. They can’t be picked like a traditional lock, and unless a thief can guess your code, it’s pretty tricky to break into a house with a keyless door lock. But that doesn’t mean they come without risk. 

When asking yourself, "Are keyless door locks safe?” consider the style of the system. Hackers could potentially break in if it operates on Wi-Fi, but it’d take some time and effort. You’re also at risk for a power outage, depending on the type of lock. That being said, there are no more risks associated with keyless door locks than a traditional lock.

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.
