"I contacted Doorbusters Lock & Key for rekeying several locks at my home, and they were excellent from start to finish. The technician arrived quickly, was professional and polite, and rekeyed everything perfectly. All the locks work smoothly, and the price was fair and exactly as quoted. I really appreciate how efficient and honest they were, definitely a company I’ll call again for any locksmith needs. Highly recommended!"

"Very friendly! Coral, who takes the calls, is friendly and efficient. Sam, the service tech, was great! Helpful, knowledgeable. He worked hard on a hot day. Worked for over 3 hours and fixed one of our entrance doors. Multiple problems with two locks and the commercial latches. Both were totally replaced. Repaired any parts that didn't need replacement. We've had several repairs over a 10 year period. Works great now! Thanks!"

"We have had a malfunctioning mini split that we could not find a technician for, after multiple failed attempts. Vintage Home Services was prompt in responding and scheduling, diagnosed our issue, and repaired for a fair price. Would highly recommend."

"Our dealings with Protect Your Home/ADT were delightful. We received a call back very fast after requesting a quote through Angie's List. We were able to complete everything on the phone; there was no paperwork or downtime. I had to call Customer Service with a question about the keypad, and they ended up telling me other helpful details on top of my original question."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes, most pros encourage you to change your locks when you move into a new home. While the previous owner may hand you their keys, you have no way of knowing whether other copies exist elsewhere. Changing your locks as soon as you move in is a great way to ensure that you can enjoy new, fully functioning locks that will work with your unique key or code.

A keypad deadbolt, a lock requiring a code entered on a keypad entry, can be a convenient option for families with children coming in and out and needing access to the home. It can also offer an easy solution if you rent your home out, since you can easily change the code as needed. So, depending on your home entry’s needs, a keypad deadbolt may be worth the extra expense.

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.

Find a vetted and trusted locksmith to work on your home so you can feel comfortable and safe. Hire a professional with these qualifications:

  • Search a verified directory of locksmiths near you, like those on Angi. 

  • Check for an Associated Locksmiths of America (ALOA) logo on their website or company logo.

  • Read company reviews. You can also check their social media pages.

  • Ask for a pro’s credentials, insurance, licensure, and customer testimonials. 

  • Check if the locksmith is knowledgeable about various topics, from decorative locks to the newest technologies on the market.

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.
