"Normally I don't write reviews, matter of fact, I probably wrote 5 reviews in my life, but I truly feel that this business takes the upmost pride in his work. I'm unsure how many employees they have working for them, but the gentleman who came out was named Jeremiah (I apologize if I misspelled his name). The first time I used their service was when my son jokingly threw my keys in my car as I was closing the door. Nonetheless, I was impressed with how friendly and caring this man was. He arrived faster (within 15 or so minutes) than was originally said on the phone (which was great because I would have been late for work otherwise). Impressed with the service, I needed to have some fancy security locks installed on my doors (I'm one for privacy), so I called them up to ask about different locks and security information. Like I said, I was very impressed with the lockout service the first time,, so I called them up.. Now, I'm a pretty handy guy. I've done construction in the past so it's not like I don't know what I'm talking about. In the process of changing the locks, I asked him about ways to strengthen the door. I probably should have brought it up prior to him almost finishing the job, but even though he was almost done, he removed everything and installed some "security brackets". I honestly don't remember what they're called, but nonetheless, he took everything apart and installed them, then reinstalled the new locks. This guy was extremely friendly and amazing professional. I definitely would recommend them and I know I will use them again! Jeremiah (sorry if I misspelled your name), if are seeing this, the doors still look nice and strong as ever! Thanks again!!!"

"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

Locksmiths offer keyless entry systems, high-security locks, panic bars, electronic access control, and biometric security solutions.

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.

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.

It is best to use a dry lubricant, such as a Teflon-based option, for door locks. Unlike popular oil-based lubricants, dry lubricants leave a non-stick, water-repellent coating that does not attract dust, dirt, and other debris. Using an oil-based lubricant can cause these particles to build up inside the lock, making it difficult to operate or even damaging the internal mechanism. You can find dry lubricants, some of which are made specifically for locks, at most hardware stores.

One of the best tools for removing a stripped bolt is a handy pair of locking pliers. Locking pliers can usually grip onto screws with a broken, rounded, or stripped head and lock in place so that you can loosen even the most stubborn bolt that would otherwise remain hopelessly jammed.
