"Erwin was professional and thorough. He understood our needs and had the perfect solution and executed it. He was extremely responsive, even during the evening. He also went above and beyond by anticipating the style of an appropriate doorknob according to photos he had seen. And besides all this, he has a respectful and friendly demeanor. Highly recommend Capitol M. Locksmith!"

"Eagle Locksmith, LLC is a very professionally organized company. The administrative assistant, Jessie, was outstanding in coordinating the job and always polite. She was always available. The locksmith, Itamar Greddy, was also very professional and courteous. He was very thorough and took time to inquire, properly install and double check everything. I highly recommend this company."

"The lead technician, Jose, was professional above and the call of duty. He gave up a weekend to finish the job when it became clear the job would take much longer than estimated. Dan, the supervisor, came on site after the work was completed to be sure everything was done right. This company is expensive, but if you want to make sure things are done to very high standards, this is the place to go."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Deadbolts are solid and durable as can be, but the pin and tumbler can still be forced open, thus making this type of lock susceptible to picking. Most types of deadbolts are harder to pick than a traditional spring-based lock, though. It requires a specialized lock pick and a tension wrench to align all of the pins, thus unlocking the door. 

It depends on what type of keyless entry it is and if the locksmith has the proper tools to remove a keypad entry lock since some are more advanced than others. However, locksmiths can typically work around keyless entries to vehicles, so it depends on what type of keyless entry system needs opening.

The cost-effectiveness of fixing or replacing a door lock depends on the severity of the issue. Repairing a minor problem, such as loose screws or a need for lubrication, is usually cheaper than replacing the entire lock. However, replacing the lock if it is severely damaged, outdated, or lacks security features may be a better long-term investment. New locks often have improved security features, enhancing your property's safety.

Begin by checking the power source, typically a battery or wired connection. Ensure the battery is installed correctly, has sufficient charge, and isn't corroded. If it's a wired lock, examine the electrical connections to confirm they are secure and free from damage. Additionally, inspect the lock's programming or settings. Confirm that user codes or access credentials are programmed correctly and that any remote control devices are paired and functional.

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.
