"From first contact thru job completion, this company is A+++! It's so important to get a locksmith you can trust and who is licensed, as there are some fake and scary locksmiths out there on Google. (Believe me, I talked to some, and I was pretty freaked out.) We were SUPER relieved to connect with Madd-Lock on Angi's, and Landon was the ultimate professional! Our storm door handle and lock were loose and the handle fell off. We thought we'd need a new one. Landon was expert and honest, and it was a simple quick fix for him, and he had our lock and handle working perfectly in no time! For a very reasonable price! He kept us apprised every step of the way. He was also very patient with me, as I was nervous after the bizarre Google contacts I had made. We put Landon/Madd-Lock into our permanent rolodex for ALL future locksmith needs. Awesome! 10 out of ten!!!"

"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."

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.

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. 

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

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.

Rekeying should be done when employees leave or keys are lost, while replacement may be necessary for outdated or damaged locks.
