"Paul was very responsive, polite and knowledgeable about his craft. I called him directly after making the appointment with home advisor to arrange an earlier time. He gave me a two hour window and called before coming. Paul wore a mask while working on my back door lock . He solved the problem quickly. I will call him again if I have a need for a locksmith."

"Sean is excellent. Highly recommend. He is now our handyman! He sticks to his quotes and does his work in a timely and conscientious manner. We had various appliances installed, along with some plumbing work. He got to it, and got it done right — and for a fair price!"

"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."

"Charles was phenomenal. I needed a custom bard door created because standard sizes wouldn't fit due to the ceiling height. Charles immediately understood the project and got working right away. Nothing I would change as the door came out perfectly. Charles was also very diligent in his work making sure other aspects of the barn door were perfect such as the notch in the baseboard, the handle, the the track itself (which I had installed before hiring Charles) Overall, he is a great man and carpenter!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Rekeying a lock changes the internal mechanism so that a new key works, while replacing a lock involves swapping out the entire hardware. Rekeying is a good, cost-effective option when you want to ensure old keys no longer work, such as after moving into a new home or losing a key. It's also ideal if you want to keep your existing lock hardware. You should opt to replace the locks entirely if you want to upgrade to a more secure or different style of lock, if the current lock is old or damaged, after a break-in, or if too many copies of the old key exist.

As with any computer, smart locks can be hacked by someone with the technical skills to do so, but most people do not have that ability, making smart locks relatively safe. If you have any concerns about a compromised smart lock, opt for an encrypted smart lock, change your Wi-Fi password, and make sure that you only give out your password to trusted family and friends.

There are several ways to add security to a sliding glass door. To start, install a rod or deadbolt lock instead of the flip-lock that comes standard with most sliding glass doors. Add a sensor to the door and monitor any activity through your home security system.

Finally, installing shatterproof window film will help keep the structural integrity of the glass if it cracks.

Regrettably, entirely pick-proof locks don't exist unless you opt for keyless varieties. Locks advertised as "pick-proof" are, in reality, more resilient against lock-picking and bumping attempts because of complex mechanisms consisting of pins and sidebars. These locks work like this—they assign two tasks to the key, enhancing security by making unauthorized entry more challenging.

Yes. Most deadbolts purchased from a home improvement store include a step-by-step installation template that is easy to follow, even for novice DIYers. One of the most important steps for successful deadbolt installation is having the proper tools to start with and carefully measuring prior to any attempts at installation.
