Q: How do burglars snap locks?

• <div><p>Using a combination of tools (often store-bought plumbing tools) and brute force, a burglar can easily snap the lock on a door. Snapping a lock aims to gain access to the cylinder inside, which holds the locking mechanism. Once the thief snaps the lock, they can pick the cylinder open and walk right in.</p></div>

Q: How can I unlock my frozen door lock?

• <div><p>When the temps drop, sometimes you need to thaw a lock to regain access. Options include warming the key with warm water, applying a de-icing spray, or using a hair dryer on low heat. Avoid using boiling water to prevent damage. To prevent future freezing, consider installing a cover or shield over the lock to keep water and ice out. Remember to be patient and gentle during thawing to avoid damaging the lock or key. If all else fails, consult a professional locksmith. </p></div>

Q: Are deadbolts worth it?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-benefits-deadbolt-lock.htm">benefit of deadbolt locks</a> is that they're much harder to force open than simple locks with pin tumbler mechanisms, so they may offer added security. This feature is why <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/locksmiths-say-deadbolt-key-home-security.htm">many locksmiths recommend deadbolts for home security</a>. For many households, this added protection and peace of mind is well worth the cost of installing a deadbolt.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect locksmith pricing?

• <div><p>Costs depend on lock type, service complexity, labor, emergency availability, and whether security system integration is needed.</p></div>

Q: Can you install a deadbolt in a hollow core door?

• <div><p>Yes, as long as it&rsquo;s thick enough for the deadbolt. Most interior hollow core doors are at least 1 1/2-inches thick, which is usually the minimum requirement for a deadbolt. You&rsquo;ll want to find the lock block first before installing. Also, most hollow doors require additional reinforcement for locks, such as a reinforcement plate or plywood block.</p></div>

"The service was awesome. They came out on a Sunday for no additional charge. The service person arrived at 2:15 PM and went back to the shop to get the new handles and locks (about 45 minutes) and was all done by 4:30 PM. We are very pleased with the work."
