"I would like to recognize employee Doug A at SafeStreet/ADT. We’ve had an old security system sitting in our house for over 15 years without service or functionality. He took the time to explain the differences between how the old systems work and how the new systems work. He was patient with us, and we are happy customers."

"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."

"I was extremely worried about my door lock which broke and did not have replacement parts. A new lock system was installed with deadlock on my front door and a new deadlock was installed on my rear door with the same key requirement as the front door. The locksmith was knowledgeable and efficient. Everything now works well."

"Donnie has completed two projects for me, and both experiences were excellent. The first job involved relocating a light switch for a bathroom fan from outside the room to inside, which made a big difference in convenience and usability. The second project was installing a smart lock on my front door, including adjusting the strike plate to ensure everything fit and functioned perfectly. In both cases, Donnie’s work was high-quality, precise, and clearly done with care. He communicated well, showed up on time, and made sure everything was working properly before wrapping up. On top of that, he was friendly and easy to work with, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Donnie to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled handyman."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

You might want to change a door lock entry code for a handful of reasons. The most common answers are extra security or a forgotten code. You may also find yourself in a position where you need to temporarily change the code to allow a guest to come and go freely but want to switch it back once things return to normal.

Aside from the labor costs, several other factors can impact the cost of hiring a locksmith. If you can avoid services during off-hours, you can save on fees often charged for urgent requests. Consider additional factors such as:

  • Type of services required

  • Emergency call fees

  • Home and lock location

  • Number of locks to repair or install

  • Peak hours

  • Type of locks

Typically, it can take around 15 minutes to rekey a lock. The time depends on the type of lock and how skilled you are at rekeying. The first time you rekey a lock, it may take a little longer. Once you get the hang of the process, it will move along much more quickly.

First thing first: Make sure you’re using the right key. If it’s the correct key for your lock, there are a few reasons why it may not be working, like the key is worn out or the lock is jammed. Try lubricating the lock and pushing the door closed to ensure the mechanisms work correctly. If you’re still locked out, call in for help.

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.
