"An absolute lifesaver! Highly recommend. ​I was visiting family in Atlanta all the way from Canada, and what was supposed to be a wonderful trip turned into a total nightmare. I somehow lost the only key to my Hyundai Santa Fe and was completely stranded. In an absolute panic, I called TD Locksmith. They sent out a technician named Luka, and he was a total lifesaver! He arrived unbelievably fast, got straight to work, and had a new key made and programmed right on the spot. Best of all, he charged a very fair and honest price—no emergency price-gouging or hidden fees at all. I can't thank Luka and TD Locksmith enough for turning a stressful situation around and saving my vacation. If you ever find yourself in a bind, this is the company to call!"

"I would like to recognize employee Doug A at SafeStreet/ADT. We’ve had an old security system sitting in our house for over 15 years without service or functionality. He took the time to explain the differences between how the old systems work and how the new systems work. He was patient with us, and we are happy customers."

The company doesn't skip a beat from scheduling, arrivals, accomplishment of service, clean up and invoicing. They don't bring coffee and bagels."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

If you’re having an issue turning the key inside a lock, chances are there is dust or dirt buildup within the cylinder. The easiest solution is applying a dry lubricant to the lock, which loosens the dirt buildup. You may need to turn the key a few times for it to work properly again.

In some cases this is possible, but it’s not advisable as the screwdriver is likely to leave marks all over the wall and a noticeable dent on the door. Move slowly and carefully if you have to use this method, and consider calling an emergency locksmith right away instead of trying to break in.

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.

If your key breaks in a lock, first remain calm and avoid forcing the broken piece further in. You may be able to remove it yourself if a portion of the key is still protruding from the lock. To aid removal, lubricate the keyhole with a graphite-based spray. Then, try using tools like pliers, tweezers, a bobby pin, or even a jigsaw blade to gently grasp and pull the broken piece out. If these methods don't work, you can't reach the key, or you're concerned about damaging the lock, it's best to call a professional locksmith for assistance.

The cost-effectiveness of fixing or replacing a door lock depends on the severity of the issue. Repairing a minor problem, such as loose screws or a need for lubrication, is usually cheaper than replacing the entire lock. However, replacing the lock if it is severely damaged, outdated, or lacks security features may be a better long-term investment. New locks often have improved security features, enhancing your property's safety.
