"These guys are awesome!! Eli installed a keypad lock for my disabled daughter’s new apartment. He was prompt, professional, friendly, and devoted to making sure my lock worked and that I was happy with the result. He walked me through the instructions and made sure the lock worked as it should before leaving. I knew his schedule was really busy but he made me feel like I was the only customer he had that day. I was able to schedule the work a week in advance. Eli called before arrival to let me know he was in the way and arrived right on time. I will definitely hire Green Locksmith again!!"

"Locksmith made several duplicate keys. Work was well done and all keys worked very well. Additionally, locksmith reported if the keys did not work out, he was able to come home (at no extra cost) to re-make duplicate sets. Keys work, and very pleased with result.

(Before we found Oakdale Locksmiths via Angie's List,  we had tried with several other locksmiths.  None of those other locksmiths' keys worked)"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes, many locksmiths offer 24/7 emergency services for business lockouts, broken keys, and security breaches.

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.

It’s possible, but depends on the design of your lock. Some door locks that lack a keyhole do boast a small hole on the exterior handle or knob. This hole’s primary function is to allow water to drain out of the lock, in addition to giving homeowners an easy spot to insert lubrication. However, you can typically use a paperclip in this pinhole to unlock the door by manipulating the mechanism inside. 

The easiest way to pick a lock is by using a titanium rake pick. This type of lock pick comes in a variety of shapes used to simulate different key configurations but generally has a tip with a bent design. Rake picks are the most beginner-friendly lockpicks and the simplest to learn how to use.

If part of the key is protruding out of the lock, you can use a pair of needle-nosed pliers or tweezers to gently turn the key in the lock to open the door. If the key is fully inserted into the lock, you may also be able to use a key extractor to help turn the key into the unlocked position. 

But if the key breaks off halfway into the lock or you simply can’t reach it to help engage the unlocking mechanisms, you should probably call a professional.
