"I do not typically write reviews but Locksmith downtown was excellent! They were incredibly responsive and solved my issue very quickly. They were very nice and professional and I would recommend their services to anyone!"
"I called Pride on the advice of a local realtor. An upcoming commercial building sale required work to be done immediately. We had a jammed lock on an exterior door and needed a locking knob on an interior door. I called on Thursday, needing the work done on Monday. I left a voicemail message, and the callback came in minutes. On Monday morning, the work was done and I had an emailed receipt. As a plus, both locks were keyed the same! I learned in a call that they do door repairs and alarm wiring too. They have over 20 years experience and are happy to explain their work. I will definitely use Pride Locksmith in the future!"
"Went smoothly. He gave me info on the lock that was there and the lock he was installing. Told me I would be able to easily make additional keys at hardware stores for the lock"
"I took advantage of the offer that Morris doors had for re-keying / changing the locks of two doors. When he arrived he said that since one of the locks had a lock on the inside and the outside he considered it two locks which seemed odd to me. I ended up paying more for the service then i expected so this put a sour taste in my mouth. Otherwise the quality of the work performed was very good. "
"I called Dabbs Lock to try to make an appointment after 5, and was transferred to an answering service. I left a message with them (a person) saying that I was interested in getting some doors re-keyed. I left my name and number. Dabbs Lock never got back to me. I never tried to call back, but went with Union Square Locksmith, who returned my call immediately and was very prompt."
Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.
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.
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.

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.
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.
