"I highly recommend MLT Locksmith for your locksmith services! Very professional, fast service, reliable and, extremely knowledgeable!! I will be calling Mike from now on for all my locksmith services!"
"We had a problematic lock on our front door. Momen from Triple Z Locksmith, who left a text for me within minutes of posting my need for a locksmith ASAP, fixed the problems efficiently and effectively. We no longer worry about 1) the door opening on its own in a strong wind, 2) the door being unable to be double-locked from the outside, and 3) the inside door handle falling off. Momen assessed the problems and kept us informed at each step. He recommended a new lock which we agreed would solve the problems...and it did! Momen has a shop inside his van where he can do repairs, make modifications, and make duplicate keys. We also have a 60-day guarantee on the lock and labor."

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.
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.
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.
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.
Newer, electric-powered door locks generally have a life span of five years or less. That’s thanks, in large part, to a phenomenon called planned obsolescence, in which products are programmed to need replacing after a certain amount of time. That’s also why older, manual, push-key locksets can last up to 30 years with regular cleanings and maintenance. When it does come time for a new set-up, know that the cost to change locks ranges from $130 to $500 on average.
