"Rick is a master locksmith who has serviced my home for re-keying and installing locks and knobs on the doors of my house, right after I bought it last year. This time he came out and installed a new cylinder on my garage door lock. He also secured the turn mechanism by replacing missing screws. Finally, he cut down a stubborn and dangerous metal anchor for a defunct clothesline in my backyard. His work is always excellent and his prices are fair. He has a mobile shop, so all work is done while you wait and onsite. Can't recommend Rick and the Keyhole enough. Five stars."

"I called Alarm Protection Group AFTER my office was burglarized. Now I feel SAFE. William is great to work with. He's neat and tidy, prompt, presentable - not a butt-crack type of guy, and he doesn't leave a mess in his wake. He's also knowledgeable about the equipment and only uses high-quality products."

"This is the second time I've hired Jose. They did an amazing job installing a new vanity in my bathroom. They always give a far quote for the work. Because, they were replacing a 20 year old vanity they needed additional hoses and had to replace the valves. They ran to home depot to purchase the missing parts for the project. We love the finished project and will definitely hire them for future work."

"The work that Bobby did was rebuilding a shed ramp, installing new porch screen door and repairing large window ledge. All I can say is that he made everything better than new! Couldn’t ask any anyone more professional!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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 However, replacing the lock if it is severely damaged, outdated, or lacks security features may be a better long-term investment.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.

The cost to hire a locksmith varies depending on the service you need. Consult your locksmith about the price of your requested services before hiring for your repair or installation. Some of the most common types of locksmith services include:

  • Installing deadbolts: $40–$75

  • Rekeying: $80–$160

  • Unlocking your house: $65–$180

  • Changing locks: $50–$200

  • Installing electronic locks: $50–$500

  • Installing smart locks: $200–$800

  • Keyless locks: $50–$300

Yes, many locksmiths offer 24/7 emergency services for business lockouts, broken keys, and security breaches.

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.

As with any computer, smart locks can be hacked by someone with the technical skills to do so, but most people do not have that ability, making smart locks relatively safe. If you have any concerns about a compromised smart lock, opt for an encrypted smart lock, change your Wi-Fi password, and make sure that you only give out your password to trusted family and friends.
