Protecting homes and businesses since 1950, Guardian Protection is one of the nation's largest and most highly regarded security companies. We provide smart technology, 24/7 professional monitoring, and peace of mind to hundreds of thousands of customers. Our products are installed by experts, monitored by real people, and truly make a difference. We do what we do because of one simple truth: life is better when it's safe.

"We hired Guardian to install our security system at our Washington, DC, business. The service and quality of the work was horrible. We had cameras and an alarm system installed; it was a relatively large system. They outsource most of the work to various vendors. They could not manage their vendors; what was supposed to take a week took two months. The sales rep did not return calls, and you could never get anyone in management on the phone. Random people would show up at unannounced times. The few things that an actual Guardian employee did were they made a huge mess of our newly remodeled office and were rude to our staff. We have offices in five markets across the US and have high security at each; we have never had such a poor experience."

We started A to Z Lock and Key 10+ years ago because we wanted to offer quality locksmith services, expert skills and competitive prices to our customers. We do the job right the first time. Our goal is to make sure our customers are safe and secure. We don't leave a job until the customer is happy.

"Owner Jack Moore responded immediately, unlocked the storage closet and replaced the old lock in a matter of minutes. The price price was reasonable. We have other locks needing replacement and instead of drumming up new business, Jack suggested how we could do it ourselves, saving money. In a pinch, Jack came through. I highly recommend A to Z Lock and Key."

"Tony responded and was very friendly and had the locket fixed in 15 minutes. Mom thought she was having a problem unlocking the door after he left, so I called him back and he came back out.. Turns out mom (who is blind) was not pushing the door handle properly. Tony helped make sure she was comfortable with the lock before he left and did not charge for the return trip. Highly recommended."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes. Most deadbolts purchased from a home improvement store include a step-by-step installation template that is easy to follow, even for novice DIYers. One of the most important steps for successful deadbolt installation is having the proper tools to start with and carefully measuring prior to any attempts at installation.

The good news is that, yes, you can change locks yourself. Many people find it’s an easy DIY project that requires few tools and not much expense (depending on which lock you’re installing). If you have trouble with any part of an installation, you can always call a locksmith to help finish installing them.

Yes, as long as it’s thick enough for the deadbolt. Most interior hollow core doors are at least 1 1/2-inches thick, which is usually the minimum requirement for a deadbolt. You’ll want to find the lock block first before installing. Also, most hollow doors require additional reinforcement for locks, such as a reinforcement plate or plywood block.

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. 

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