"Equipment is all fairly priced, in fact, some items were cheaper than any other online source. It is all SELF-INSTALLED, so you need to at least know how to operate a screwdriver proficiently. :-) All items have help guides showing you how to install the sensors, door locks, etc. The setup section of the phone app walks you thru the setup of each sensor and lets you know when you're done. I had just had another company install and then remove their system and it took me less time to set up[ this one than they took. The equipment such as door locks (Schlage), sensors (equivalent to Dome or Vivint), front door bell (Skybell) is all TOP quality. All batteries (new) included. Equipment doesn't ship for 48 hours after your order is placed, but then arrives one or two days later. Plan on one full day to install, test and get help (by phone) during your install. As for their support line. It is A1. AAA. Highest award I can think of for telephone support. Courteous, knowledgeable and helpful to a fault. These people provide a full featured system that is awesome. The system's monitoring takes place in NY and is reached by cellular telephone. No wi-fi which a burglar could disable at your home very easily. This they cannot get at. Monitoring cost may vary in your area. Mine is the same as the previously removed sytstem would have been."

"Mitch was prompt in setting up an appointment, contacted me the day before to re-confirm, and was on time the day of service. He did a thorough job and sent me pictures of my gutters after he cleaned them out. I received the bill within a few hours. I was very pleased with Higley Handyman Services and would hire again!"

"Choice responded quickly but the insurance plan does not pay for all doors to be re-keyed unless you have very few locks. The number of locks covered by the insurance is determined by keyholes, not doors! (Read your policy!) You will likely have to shell out some money to have this essential new-home service if you have more than four keyholes. The locksmith they called was EXCELLENT and made all our locks completely functional. We will happily hire the locksmith again (R.L Locksmith LLC). We paid $201.81 (plus another $50 for some door re-alignment not included in the re-keying benefit) and Choice paid $100 for the job."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

There is a reason many commercial garages and storage facilities have roller garage doors. They stand out as one of the most secure options due to their unique design. The compact installation and absence of visible leverage points on the sturdy aluminum curtain make them a formidable obstacle for potential intruders. 

If you’re having an issue turning the key inside a lock, chances are there is dust or dirt buildup within the cylinder. The easiest solution is applying a dry lubricant to the lock, which loosens the dirt buildup. You may need to turn the key a few times for it to work properly again.

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. 

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.
