"John did a very good with a somewhat tricky, not 'off-the-shelf' job. A 'precision engineered' (everything has to be precisely mounted and aligned for the doors to work properly) French entry door set had gotten out of adjustment due to settling in a 100+ year old house. The doors would close but wouldn't lock because of misalignments due to sagging. The doors had built-in adjustment mechanisms but these had been taken to their limit, and could no longer fix the alignment problem. He diagnosed the problem, removed the sagging door and reinstalled the hinges and reset the adjustment mechanism to get back to proper alignment. He also reset the adjustment mechanism to allow the doors to be adjusted again if they get out of alignment in the future. Good job at fair price."

"ADT is the best company 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."

"Fantastic! We had hired a handyman from SMAP ( send me a pro ) to install a new bathroom door for us and he did such a terrible job that the door would not even close. Hg came out and corrected the situation so we now have a perfectly functioning door. We now know who to recommend , and who not to recommend, when work needs to be done."

Locksmiths FAQs, answered by experts

Any type of dead bolt lock provides the highest level of safety for a single device. However, it’s also important to determine a lock's grade. Locks can come in either Grade 1, Grade 2, or Grade 3, which indicates how durable it is and if it’s constructed solidly. Safety experts recommend choosing locks based on Grade 1, which offers the highest level of durability.

One of the best tools for removing a stripped bolt is a handy pair of locking pliers. Locking pliers can usually grip onto screws with a broken, rounded, or stripped head and lock in place so that you can loosen even the most stubborn bolt that would otherwise remain hopelessly jammed.

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.

Costs depend on lock type, service complexity, labor, emergency availability, and whether security system integration is needed.

Yes, with better technology now available, it’s possible to add a smart lock on your sliding glass door. Smart locks can be easy for almost everyone in the family to operate and can connect to other safety features in the home, like smart lights. Plus, they’re harder for would-be criminals to pick. However, keep in mind that smart locks can potentially be hacked, and some completely rely on phones or Wi-Fi, which can be an issue if the power goes out.
