Delivery of a safe can be a complicated and difficult process. We offer a trained professional delivery crew as well as expensive safe moving equipment. Even with the proper training and equipment, the safes don't flex, so we need the proper amount of space to allow our equipment to work. This is to assure a safe delivery with no damage to your new safe, home, or our delivery crew.

"Safe was delivered and the process was efficient with the equipment they had. However, Mark was less than personable and seemed bothered that he was there. He was not responsive to any questions I had and they were fairly simple. Maybe texting is complicated to him. Although he came off as rude and unresponsive the service was acceptable."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

The most secure lock for a front door is typically a deadbolt. There are many types of deadbolts to choose from, the most basic of which is the standard single-cylinder deadbolt. This is the lock you find installed on most front doors. For added security, you could go with a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate the lock from both the outside and the inside. 

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. 

Commercial locksmith services range from $75 to $500, depending on the job's complexity, such as key duplication, lock installation, or access control system setup.

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.

Many local hardware stores have the equipment to copy basic keys at a low cost. Some locations may have freestanding machines where you can pick out a blank and insert it and your original key into the duplicating machine.
