"Wonderful experience with Adam, the locksmith. Very professional and knowledgeable. Work was done quickly and cost was very reasonable. He provided options on our key problems and gave my sister good information. We would definitely recommend Lockbusters again and we would use them again if we needed a key or lock. Thank you HomeAdvisor for providing us with this locksmith. Comments on this site gave us good input and I contacted Lockbusters. They deserve the high marks and praise. THANK YOU ADAM!!!!"

"Absolutely fantastic! EVERYONE in the family was more than pleased. Mike explained the process, costs and risks. He COMES TO YOU AT NO EXTRA FEE!! He quickly responded to our request and called back quickly. We explained the need for a family conference and when we decided to use him, he was at the house within an hour. He was polite, courteous, knowledgeable, quick and neat. Local Lock Smith is our recommendation. The first locksmith ( not from Angi) was useless!! Go with Angi and Mike from Local Lock Smith I!!"

"Jordan was very timely, worked efficiently, was super polite and was very fairly priced. He even recommended how I could save money on the project. I quoted another Locksmith on Angi and he tried to rip me off. I will use Jordan again."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Typically, it can take around 15 minutes to rekey a lock. The time depends on the type of lock and how skilled you are at rekeying. The first time you rekey a lock, it may take a little longer. Once you get the hang of the process, it will move along much more quickly.

Rekeying a lock changes the internal mechanism so that a new key works, while replacing a lock involves swapping out the entire hardware. Rekeying is a good, cost-effective option when you want to ensure old keys no longer work, such as after moving into a new home or losing a key. It's also ideal if you want to keep your existing lock hardware. You should opt to replace the locks entirely if you want to upgrade to a more secure or different style of lock, if the current lock is old or damaged, after a break-in, or if too many copies of the old key exist.

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. 

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.

Yes, with better technology now available, it’s possible to add a smart lock on your sliding glass door. Smart locks can be easy for almost everyone in the family to operate and can connect to other safety features in the home, like smart lights. Plus, they’re harder for would-be criminals to pick. However, keep in mind that smart locks can potentially be hacked, and some completely rely on phones or Wi-Fi, which can be an issue if the power goes out.
