"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

Expect to pay between $50 to $200 if you hire a locksmith to change your locks. That figure includes labor and the cost of basic hardware. The cost will naturally be higher if you plan to install more expensive locks, like smart locks, and if you need a lot of them.

Homeowners can save money by replacing locks themselves. A typical rekeying kit costs about $10 to $25. The only additional cost is purchasing new house keys, and those are no more than a few dollars per key. If you want to replace the locks on your own completely, the main cost is the price of the locks themselves. A standard knob-style lock starts around $25, while electronic locks and smart locks will run in the hundreds of dollars. The only additional tools you should need are a tape measure, screwdriver, and screws if they are not already provided.

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.

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.

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.

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.
