"I made a request for the work on Saturday Feb 14 on the Angi website. Five companies were suggested. I contacted three. Within ten minutes I got a call from Franz Muller at PLC Handyman. I described the work, he quoted $250, and said he could come take a look at 3 pm today. He and his partner arrived at 2:30 pm, came in, had a look, confirmed the $250 quote, I gave them the go-ahead, and they left for Lowe s to get materials. They came back with six doorknobs. Franz took his planer to the top of the sticking door. I asked if he shouldn t take the door off to do that and he said no. The planer chipped the paint on the sides, broke off twi sizeable chips on the end and made a sawdust mess on the wall, the top of a dresser, and the carpet. Meanwhile his partner removed one doorknob and said there was a problem. The doors were old and not standard. They needed a kit to cut bigger holes for the new knobs. As they left, Franz announced this would double his original quote to $500. Caught off guard with the work already started, what was I to say? I told them proceed. They headed back to Lowe s. They returned with the kit, some superglue to repair the door chips, and an additional knob because they only bought six originally (I had shown them there were seven). Franz glued the chips and then left my house. His partner did all the doorknob work. I helped him a little by removing strikes and cleaning up sawdust messes. He said Franz had gone to get something to eat. When most of the knobs were replaced, Franz reappeared, hung around, then used my bathroom without asking. He left a big mess in my toilet and didn t bother to turn on a fan. When all the knobs were replaced and checked, Franz announced the fee was $500 plus the two Lowe s invoices ($150). I said I wasn t clear that the quote didn t include parts, but I wrote a check to him for $650. I got no written receipt, no warranty, and all the old knobs were left for me to dispose of. My wife and I did all the cleanup of sawdust and debris. I had to touch-up paint the door. The whole job seemed to be handled in a messy and rushed fashion. Nothing in writing. Messes left. No offer to remove or cover wet shoes. Even the kit I paid for was not offered to be left. They kept it. This is my first use of Angi. I guess I thought vendors were pre-screened so these kinds of problems would not occur."

"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."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

When the temps drop, sometimes you need to thaw a lock to regain access. Options include warming the key with warm water, applying a de-icing spray, or using a hair dryer on low heat. Avoid using boiling water to prevent damage. To prevent future freezing, consider installing a cover or shield over the lock to keep water and ice out. Remember to be patient and gentle during thawing to avoid damaging the lock or key. If all else fails, consult a professional locksmith.

Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.

Over time, latch components may wear out or get grimy, leading to this problem. First, check for dirt, dust, or debris in the latch mechanism to ensure smooth operation. Use an aerosol duster and lubricant to clean and loosen. You may also need to tighten the screws in the component, adjust the strike plate, or replace the lock. If none of these steps resolve the problem, consult a professional locksmith.

While lock crunching as a whole is not terribly common, it is one of the most frequently used means of forced entry into a home. Recent data suggests that forced entry through lock crunching or snapping occurs in more than 25% of burglaries.

If you don’t have your original key, the easiest way to obtain a copy is to call a locksmith. For house keys, your locksmith has several options for configuring a new key: 

  • They can input a lock’s identification code into a database to obtain key-cutting instructions.

  • They could analyze the lock cylinder to determine how to cut a new key.

  • They can create an impression of the lock cylinder from which to cut a new key.
