"It didn't go well. I looked out the window on appointment day and saw a van in my driveway. By the time I opened the garage door the van was gone. This person never rang the door the bell. I called the company and the woman that took the call told me her guy showed up but nobody was home. I told her that's not true and she said she will send the man back. About forty minutes later, the man showed up and told me that I needed a new door and opener because of the age and tear. He gave me a quote and I paid half and he told me his technician will come the next day in the morning to install the door and opener since I wanted it done as quickly as possible. The technician didn't show up until in the afternoon. I did not find out that the door they sold to me does not have a handle until we lost power. I called the 'front man', he has a business card that has only David on it, and he told me to send him text message and I did, but he never responded. I called him again and he told me I never asked for door with handle, and that if I needed one he would have to charge extra money. I told him that's not how to conduct business and he got upset and told me to call the company. I called the company and the woman told me the 'technician' will call me. The 'technician' called me and told me the door is not designed to have a handle, and that it is not hard to lift up during power outage. He said he will come back to put a handle on the inside but not outside. The man never showed up. I have tried to talk to the owner/manager, but the woman that takes calls won't let me. She would say that the technician will call me when he's in my area and will hang up before I could say anything else."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Deadbolts are solid and durable as can be, but the pin and tumbler can still be forced open, thus making this type of lock susceptible to picking. Most types of deadbolts are harder to pick than a traditional spring-based lock, though. It requires a specialized lock pick and a tension wrench to align all of the pins, thus unlocking the door. 

If your door handle turns without opening, the most likely culprit is a loose or stripped spindle. This part connects the handles to the latch mechanism, and when it’s not properly engaged, turning the handle does nothing. Other issues might include a broken latch, loose screws, or even something small blocking an inner mechanism. In any case, it’s usually a matter of tightening, adjusting, or replacing a worn-out part inside the handle assembly—or calling in a professional to do it for you.

The good news is that, yes, you can change locks yourself. Many people find it’s an easy DIY project that requires few tools and not much expense (depending on which lock you’re installing). If you have trouble with any part of an installation, you can always call a locksmith to help finish installing them.

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.

There’s no set time limit for when you should replace your locks, but there are several indicators that it’s time to swap them. If you’re moving into a new home or have a roommate moving out, it’s smart to change the locks. If you experience a break-in or other crime, you should change it then too, or if you ever lose your keys. Eventually, locks can wear out, so it’s ideal to replace them after several years of use or one of these circumstances occurs.
