"Seth did a fantastic job on my front door replacement! I had an issue with the previous door dragging on my tile flooring in the front hall (along with the fact that it was very old and falling apart). He helped me pick out a new door and raised it just enough to work with my entryway. Additionally, he reinstalled my existing storm door with better fitment! I highly recommend Seth and EXCEL Handyman!"

"Paul is wired for conscientious work and cost effectivenessâ Itâ s in his makeup. Not only is he a master finished carpenter who does exquisite work, more importantly he looks for opportunities to improve project design and save cost. For our project, he suggested simple low cost ways to improve utility by modifying design and reusing materials. Simple, low cost steps that improved the result by multiples. An important (free) dividend of working with Paul is his knowledge of the other trades. He Integrates well with them and has a network of contacts he can bring in for plumbing, electrical and painting work. We are new to KC so it was a huge bonus to leverage his relationships to get reliable help. You canâ t go wrong with Green Bridge Designs and Paul Kinslow."

"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."

"Josh contacted, met me, and he started working the first day l reach out. Josh was professional, deliberate and fixed the problem l was having with my front door. He was able to fix it faster than expected so instead of leaving, he proactively offered to fix a few additional problems l was having. Very dependable"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes, but adding a deadbolt to some door materials, like steel, may make installation a little bit trickier. For these materials, you will want to hire a locksmith to do the work for you, but be aware that they may charge an additional fee of $25 to $50 or more.

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.

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. 

Any type of dead bolt lock provides the highest level of safety for a single device. However, it’s also important to determine a lock's grade. Locks can come in either Grade 1, Grade 2, or Grade 3, which indicates how durable it is and if it’s constructed solidly. Safety experts recommend choosing locks based on Grade 1, which offers the highest level of durability.

First thing first: Make sure you’re using the right key. If it’s the correct key for your lock, there are a few reasons why it may not be working, like the key is worn out or the lock is jammed. Try lubricating the lock and pushing the door closed to ensure the mechanisms work correctly. If you’re still locked out, call in for help.
