"Matt F. from Chicago Locksmiths came to unlock my door that I locked myself out of. He was fast, efficient and courteous. He observed all COVID-19 safety protocols too. What else could you ask for in a locksmith. The price not outrageous either ($110). I would highly recommend Matt F. from Chicago Locksmiths."

"Jason's craftsmanship is superb!!! I live in a home built in 1956 and have a beautiful solid wood door.  Ok, the beauty was under layers of paint and neglect but he also saw the beauty in what it could be...and he has the skill to make that happen!
Too often there are 'handymen' who want to make small fixes but Jason is a skilled carpenter and I would highly recommend him. The door frame was crooked as the house foundation had settled and the area under the door would shift with periods of rain/dry weather.  Not only did he restore the door, but he was able to fix this problem as well.  He had to use a more modern feature to help with the gaping of the door, but he incorporated it well to go with the older look of the door.
I am also impressed with Jason's creativity as he came up with a wonderful industrial finish for the door. The painters he used to help finish the work were also both professional and solid in their skill.  If you have a project where you need true craftsmanship, I would call this professional carpenter for the job!!!
He also gave me a great price to install pre-made cabinets over my washer/dryer as well as cut and install a cat door in the door leading to my garage. I was so glad he installed the cabinets because as with most older homes, the were surprises with the wall the cabinets were being hung on. But with his skill, he was able to securely fasten the cabinets and they look great!
Rapid Remodeling is reliable and works with your schedule. The price was for the front door restoration was fair and comparable to other quotes however, I choose Rapid Remodeling as he actually listened to me and discussed the project with me. When he returned to do the actual work, he remembered me and what we had previously discussed. I did not feel pressured to that I was being 'sold' additional work as I have felt with other contractors/handymen.
I will definitely use Rapid Remodeling again!

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

If your door handle turns without opening, the most likely culprit is a loose or stripped spindle. This part connects the handles to the latch mechanism, and when it’s not properly engaged, turning the handle does nothing. Other issues might include a broken latch, loose screws, or even something small blocking an inner mechanism. In any case, it’s usually a matter of tightening, adjusting, or replacing a worn-out part inside the handle assembly—or calling in a professional to do it for you.

A door lock service is performed by a professional locksmith, and the cost of hiring a locksmith for these kinds of repair tasks usually runs in the $100 to $250 range. It all depends on the type of locks you have, how many locks are included in the service, and where your home is located. Always choose reliable, trustworthy locksmiths, and get a few quotes before making your choice. 

Security experts recommend deadbolt locks as the most secure option for a house's exterior or entry doors. Deadbolts provide the best security because they can prevent most types of forced entry and are harder to lockpick. Common types include the standard single-cylinder deadbolt, which is often found on front doors. For enhanced security, you can opt for a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate from both the inside and the outside.

Yes, you should change the locks as soon as you can after completing the purchase of a house. This is a matter of privacy and security, as you have no idea how many copies of the keys the previous owner made. You can change the locks yourself or hire a pro to replace or rekey the lock, which costs $50 to $100.
