"Mr. Diego is a very courteous and highly skilled professional Locksmith. We walked through my home and he showed me two door levers that needed to be replaced and he diligently re-keyed a number of other locks and deadbolts throughout the house and added a lock to an existing door with out a locking handle. He was conscientious and adjusted the existing strike plates on the locks being re-keyed so that the doors shut properly and locked smoothly. He made a big improvement to our locks without having to replace them all. He completed the project smoothly and on-time. I would definitely recommend Diego @ Supreme Locksmith to friends & family. If going with Diego, you’re hiring an awesome Locksmith and gentleman that shows up to work with a smile on his face and one who truly enjoys his handicraft."

"My husband and I hired Carl for a few handyman jobs including updating the crown molding in our downstairs space, replacing our front porch columns, replacing our front door, and adding some detail to our kitchen island. We couldn’t have been happier with the results. He is extremely attentive to detail and clearly has a lot of experience. He was very respectful of us and our time. Next time I need another repair/job I will for sure be reaching out to Carl again."

"Walter and Glen at Protect Your Home Group with ADT are the best people to talk to in terms of security alarm. Being a locksmith myself I know how important it is to deal with the right people. I referred a lot of customers to them and so far they are happy with their service. I myself got one for my house. Thank you for a consistent service and great deal."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes, you should always change your locks after buying a house. Do so as soon as possible after you move in. Otherwise, you won’t know who has working keys to the property, whether they’re spare keys or otherwise. If an intruder gains access to your house with a key, it may not be covered under your homeowners insurance.

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.

Rekeying door locks yourself costs a fraction of what you would expect to pay a locksmith. On average, it costs between $50 to $100 to hire a local locksmith to rekey your house, though labor costs may vary based on where you live. For a DIY solution, you can expect to spend $11 to $25 on a rekeying kit.

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.

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.
