"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."

"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."

"Gerald was a true expert locksmith who insured that his repair work would last and met our needs. His attention to detail and craftsmanship were remarkable. Our Front door antique brass locking mechanism has not worked this well since we bought this house in 1986! His work was well worth the cost off service."

"The garage door sensor isn't working right and they are sending a different model. We've needed to call them several times to get this sorted, but they are good on the phone.
They nickel and dime on the equipment, wanting to charge us 7$ to ship a keyring and it took 7 days to arrive. And then when a sensor was failing they wanted to send a new one but with same slow shipping which would have left our house insecure for a week. I had to moan about it til they agreed to send it faster, but I feel like, "duh, I'm paying to have security when I want it, not just at times when you can get your shipping and your defective gear working.'
So sure I like them, but it leaves a bad taste that I had to suggest to them they should support their products and service. I'd have preferred it if they just had a policy of providing high evel service right out of the gate.
The gear is GE sensors and the phone app seems like a licensed deal, works well. Now we know we can probably do it all cheaper by just buying sensors and contracting for monitoring service seperately, but this is our first experience with home security and I appreciate the level of service. WHen our contract is up, I'll shop around for monitoring but this was a good way to get into it.
Costing us about 49/mo. and we like having the piece of mind.

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s possible, but depends on the design of your lock. Some door locks that lack a keyhole do boast a small hole on the exterior handle or knob. This hole’s primary function is to allow water to drain out of the lock, in addition to giving homeowners an easy spot to insert lubrication. However, you can typically use a paperclip in this pinhole to unlock the door by manipulating the mechanism inside. 

Most door knobs can be removed with a Phillips or flathead screwdriver. If you don’t have either of those available, a paper clip or small pin can sometimes work, but the extra effort may not be worth a quick trip to the hardware store.

It depends on the quality of the keyless lock and usage, but in general, you can expect a keyless lock to last around three to five years. The batteries typically last around six to 12 months. The good news is most keyless locks include a low battery indicator so you can receive ample warning if your battery is about to die.

If you’re having an issue turning the key inside a lock, chances are there is dust or dirt buildup within the cylinder. The easiest solution is applying a dry lubricant to the lock, which loosens the dirt buildup. You may need to turn the key a few times for it to work properly again.
