"Capable! just one of several words I used to describe the quality of work done by Ragstar Works, a team that works with high standards. They were competent, organized, and efficient making sure that everything necessary to complete the job would be done successfully with their reliable skills and knowledge. Ragstar Works focused on and consistently used these work qualities. They paid attention to details and always used their work time efficiently. They communicated openly to make sure instructions were clear and understood. I will most definitely have them return for more jobs. They are dependable, friendly, and great to work with. They did an amazing job at cleaning my very old, creepy, Michigan basement and transformed it into a bright, friendly, and more pleasant, usable space. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"

"We had Josh from Chavez Home Repair here to install a bidet toilet and he did an excellent job. Making sure he did things properly and timely. We then asked if he was up for another handyman project. Josh accepted the next project to install a three panel fence including the gate. This project was a bit tricky. Josh remained dedicated and focused and got the gate installed. We are very happy with his work. Would recommend his service."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

You can cut a door knob off using a sawzall, but you risk causing additional damage to the door itself. You’ll also need to completely replace the door knob, costing you extra money and another trip to the hardware store.

You might assume that having two locks on one door will offer more protection than only one lock, but there may not be an advantage. While there’s nothing wrong with having two locks if you feel it’s best for your living situation, rest assured having one high-quality deadbolt installed correctly will offer a high level of protection.

A deadbolt differs from a regular lock in its design, construction, and security level. Regular locks are typically used for interior doors, such as for bedrooms and bathrooms, and provide minimal security. They are easy to install and use, often featuring a simple locking mechanism on the inside. In contrast, a deadbolt is one of the most secure locks you can install on an exterior door. Its internal construction is designed to withstand significant force, adding a crucial layer of security that can deter intruders. While deadbolts may be more expensive and complicated to install, they are cost-effective for the security they provide and are built to hold up to wear and tear.

Security experts recommend deadbolt locks as the most secure option for a house's exterior or entry doors. Deadbolts provide the best security because they can prevent most types of forced entry and are harder to lockpick. Common types include the standard single-cylinder deadbolt, which is often found on front doors. For enhanced security, you can opt for a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate from both the inside and the outside.

It is best to use a dry lubricant, such as a Teflon-based option, for door locks. Unlike popular oil-based lubricants, dry lubricants leave a non-stick, water-repellent coating that does not attract dust, dirt, and other debris. Using an oil-based lubricant can cause these particles to build up inside the lock, making it difficult to operate or even damaging the internal mechanism. You can find dry lubricants, some of which are made specifically for locks, at most hardware stores.
