"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."

"Front Door locks broken on my home. Had to take off work, no way to secure my home. Home Advisor put me touch with Colonial Lock Service, Inc. the gentleman on the phone tried to help trouble shoot the problem when that failed a locksmith was dispatched. The locksmith called and said I will be there in an hour. This young man showed up on time and said don't worry I hear to make it better. He had such great friendly personality and did a great job. He replaced both of my locks and said "Sir your new locks turn like butter now". Well that made my laugh but he was so right, my locks never worked so good. It appears when the door was replace 15 years ago the locks never really lined up right. The replacement locks were are not your local hardware style, much better quality. I was quoted a price which having never used a locksmith before I thought was high, however the quick response, great service, better then average hardware and most of all the locksmith had a great friendly attitude. The price was right. This young man shook my hand and thanked me. Right when I thought there was no more good customer service in this world, WOW!"

"The initial call was a bit sales-y but that is typical.  It was easy to go through although I would have liked them to be more up front about the contract.
A couple weeks later they shipped the security system to my house and I was able to put it together pretty easily. One note: if your door has a recessed frame you don't have to use the in-door system.  With a bit of ingenuity you can work out how to get the external ones to work.  They can meet at right angles.
Other than that you call to get it activated.  The people on the phone are professional and knowledgeable.  So far I'm satisfied.

"I communicated with Rob Calbo for services of a background check with CSI Secure Solutions and he was fantastic.
He spoke with me in a very professional manner and put me at ease right away.
The process was seamless and my request was delivered very efficiently. Within just a few hours of providing them with information, I was able to get feedback. Rob took the time to speak with me and answered all of my questions. 
I will definitely be using them again in the future should the need arise, and I would definitely recommend them as being very efficient, professional and reliable.

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Lubricating a door lock is an important part of door lock maintenance. It involves taking the lubricant of your choice (it’s best to use whatever the lock’s manufacturer suggests) and spraying it directly into the keyway. Push and pull your key in and out of the lock to make sure it’s all the way in. 

Using a combination of tools (often store-bought plumbing tools) and brute force, a burglar can easily snap the lock on a door. Snapping a lock aims to gain access to the cylinder inside, which holds the locking mechanism. Once the thief snaps the lock, they can pick the cylinder open and walk right in.

Rekeying should be done when employees leave or keys are lost, while replacement may be necessary for outdated or damaged locks.

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. 

Rekeying your own locks is a low-cost task that prevents you from having to replace the locks themselves completely. The first couple of times you rekey a lock may be challenging because this is an intermediate DIY task. You can purchase a rekey kit from most hardware stores, but make sure you’re buying the kit from the brand of lock in your home that you’re going to rekey.
