"We've lived in our house about 6 years and we've never had matching keys for all our door locks. Further, we never had a key at all for our storm door. We called on the Flying Locksmiths to re-key all our locks. They showed up on time, worked quickly and efficiently, and within half an hour, we had four re-keyed doors and one shiny new key to rule them all.

There was a hiccup re-keying the storm door because the lock was proprietary. The Flying Locksmiths asked to take the lock housing with them to see what they could do. In the worst-case scenario, they'd have to order a new part but they'd try to re-key the existing door. By the next business day, they'd managed to re-key the existing lock. They swung by and had it installed in less than 2 minutes!

I'd recommend The Flying Locksmiths to anyone. It used to be that there was only one game in town when it came to Chattanooga locksmiths so you had to take what you got. Not anymore!"

"Jayson was on time and very professional. He explained in detail what was wrong with my locks and how he was going to fix them. He was very friendly and got all my locks changed in a timely manner. He told me the cost up front and that is what I paid. No hidden charges. I would strongly recommend Titan locksmith."

"Choice responded quickly but the insurance plan does not pay for all doors to be re-keyed unless you have very few locks. The number of locks covered by the insurance is determined by keyholes, not doors! (Read your policy!) You will likely have to shell out some money to have this essential new-home service if you have more than four keyholes. The locksmith they called was EXCELLENT and made all our locks completely functional. We will happily hire the locksmith again (R.L Locksmith LLC). We paid $201.81 (plus another $50 for some door re-alignment not included in the re-keying benefit) and Choice paid $100 for the job."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Whether or not keyless door locks are safe and trustworthy depends on the visibility of the programming code—and a trespasser’s determination. Even if you carefully guard entry and programming codes, those trying to break in may be able to crack open the lock’s faceplate with a screwdriver and change the codes. The same goes for manual models.

Some find smart locks the safest option because it’s harder to manipulate codes without access to your phone. But it’s possible to get hacked even then. Consider installing an extended security system, like door and window alarms or surveillance cameras, to enhance security. 

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.

If you don’t have your original key, the easiest way to obtain a copy is to call a locksmith. For house keys, your locksmith has several options for configuring a new key: 

  • They can input a lock’s identification code into a database to obtain key-cutting instructions.

  • They could analyze the lock cylinder to determine how to cut a new key.

  • They can create an impression of the lock cylinder from which to cut a new key. 

When it comes to how to get a stuck key out of a lock, the simplest way is to use some kind of lubricating substance. One option is to apply graphite powder while wiggling the key gently. As the graphite fills the lock, jiggling should loosen the key enough to allow you to pull it out.

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.
