"I locked my keys in my car so I called around to several different locksmiths and Lowkey locks quoted me the best price and told me he could be there within an hour. He arrived in 30 min and it only took a couple of minutes for him to unlock my car. Brett was very professional and as I mentioned very quick. I was very impressed and will be using them again. I would recommend this company 100%"

"John was very professional and is very trustworthy. I hired him for an assembly project for my home gym. He did an exceptional job and was quick. It would have taken me hours to complete the work he did in a relatively short period of time. I highly recommend John."

"Jack communicated very clearly and worked out a schedule where he would come very early to accommodate a time that fit for us. Our schedules did not permit us to stay while he worked, but he worked quickly and we had no issue with my wife or I not being there while he finished his business. He made an extra trip to a local hardware store to purchase items we needed. He was in and out, and serviced both doors we requested, in under 2 hours. He was friendly and polite and helped my wife arrange payment which was quick and easy. We highly recommend Jack for future services."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.

While lock crunching as a whole is not terribly common, it is one of the most frequently used means of forced entry into a home. Recent data suggests that forced entry through lock crunching or snapping occurs in more than 25% of burglaries.

Lock picking is a relatively subtle method of unauthorized access, making it hard to detect. But there are telltale signs to look for. First, look for scratches or tool marks around the keyhole or the lock's surface. Also, check for loose or misaligned components, like a wonky strike plate, which could indicate tampering. Consulting a locksmith or security professional for an assessment can provide valuable insights, too. Investing in high-quality locks and considering additional security measures, like security cameras, can help deter potential intruders and enhance your overall safety.

Expect to pay between $50 to $200 if you hire a locksmith to change your locks. That figure includes labor and the cost of basic hardware. The cost will naturally be higher if you plan to install more expensive locks, like smart locks, and if you need a lot of them.

Homeowners can save money by replacing locks themselves. A typical rekeying kit costs about $10 to $25. The only additional cost is purchasing new house keys, and those are no more than a few dollars per key. If you want to replace the locks on your own completely, the main cost is the price of the locks themselves. A standard knob-style lock starts around $25, while electronic locks and smart locks will run in the hundreds of dollars. The only additional tools you should need are a tape measure, screwdriver, and screws if they are not already provided.

It could be difficult to get in and out of a lock for several reasons, such as the keyhole needing additional lubrication. Particles, debris, and dirt can also get into a lock, making a key stuck (the lubrication can help with the removal).
