"We?ve been working with Triple Z Locksmith for quite a while now, and I can?t recommend them enough. As a dealership, we often need locksmith services for our own inventory whether it?s keys, doors, or lock repairs and they?ve always delivered fast, reliable, and professional work every time. On top of that, we?ve sent customers who?ve purchased cars from us their way for help with keys or lock issues down the road, and they?ve all come back with nothing but good things to say. It?s rare to find someone this consistent and dependable. If you need a locksmith you can trust to get the job done right, look no further. ? Al, F&M Auto Sales"

Customers say: Terrific value

"Chris did a great job repairing my mom's wood fence that was leaning forward, installing lattice, and reattaching the gate. Showed up within a week, quoted for the best price and very humble and honest person. Highly recommend him for handyman service. Even though he might not respond to you immediately, but his work doesn't disappoint you. Worth the wait"

"My husband was pretty upset and thought he messed up the electrical doing a bathroom update project. I went looking for someone on google to help us in a pinch, and this was the right person, the right company, at the right time. Definitely deserves more than we gave Deryk, but he was able to come out after hours to help us. He did an awesome job not only with the fix but the extra help he had given us. Very humble and professional. We truly appreciate your service and will definitely call again if we ever need the help."

"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

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 However, replacing the lock if it is severely damaged, outdated, or lacks security features may be a better long-term investment.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

In general, keyless door locks are considered safe, and their security depends on the type and quality of the lock. They cannot be picked like a traditional lock and often include added features like biometric access, PIN codes, and smartphone connectivity, which can make them more secure. However, they are not without risks. Potential vulnerabilities include hacking for Wi-Fi-connected models, battery failure, power outages, and technical malfunctions. To maximize security, it is important to choose a reliable brand, stay on top of software updates, and perform regular maintenance. While the risks are different, keyless locks are not considered more dangerous than traditional locks.

Yes, but adding a deadbolt to some door materials, like steel, may make installation a little bit trickier. For these materials, you will want to hire a locksmith to do the work for you, but be aware that they may charge an additional fee of $25 to $50 or more.

Yes, you should change the locks as soon as you can after completing the purchase of a house. This is a matter of privacy and security, as you have no idea how many copies of the keys the previous owner made. You can change the locks yourself or hire a pro to replace or rekey the lock, which costs $50 to $100.

Lock bumping is a technique locksmiths use to quickly and quietly open a pin tumbler lock, typically found in most types of deadbolts. It involves inserting a specially crafted key, or bump key, into the lock and tapping or "bumping" it with a mallet or similar tool. The force applied causes the lock's pins to jump momentarily, allowing the lock to be turned and opened. Unfortunately, thieves also use this technique to break into homes. Luckily, products like a deadbolt strap will fortify your lock.
