"We recently purchased a home in Hendersonville and wanted to have all the exterior door locks (including a keypad) re-keyed. I called Mark and he came out that afternoon and did the job. He also made extra keys for us for a very reasonable charge. He was very friendly and did a super job, including giving me pointers on how to reset the code on the keypad. I highly recommend Alpha Locksmith!"

"I honestly don't know what I enjoyed the most. The keys that were expertly made, or the conversation I had with one of the most pleasant men I have ever met. I guess I needed the keys, but I will long remember the MAN known affectionately as Moose. Priceless!"

"Sal is the technician and he is amazing! I have 12 indoor knobs to replace and he finished all the work neatly within two hours, and, in addition, fixed my front storm door and my back door. He is very talented and super professional, and the whole process is very quiet without excessive noise (as I am having a meeting in my office). He also wore a mask and shoe covers.

"David, owner, demonstrated truly high skill with his picking tools. I never saw anything like it. He had the lock open in a minute! He then cut me a couple of keys, that was in itself, a wonder. Because my file cabinet happens to use a specialized, that is really very hard to find. And the cost? Very reasonable. American Eagle Locksmith sets the standard. Furthermore, Dave is a very pleasant man. Very highly recommended."

"The manager at A.L. Odom managed to squeeze me in on the same day I phoned so I didn't have to leave my house unsecured with a broken lock for another night. The techs very courteously phoned to say they were on the way. They worked very efficiently and did a great job on the install as well as cleaning up the mess from the wood door cutting and drilling. They also didn't try to sell me more than I needed. The final cost even came in a few dollars under the estimate. Very professional and courteous company. I will use them again!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

A deadbolt has a different design, construction, and security level than a regular lock. Regular locks are mostly used for interior doors around the home, like bedrooms and bathrooms, and they usually include a locking mechanism on the inside. While regular locks are easy to use and install, they provide little security. 

A deadbolt adds a layer of security and is most commonly used on exterior doors. The installation is typically more complicated, but they hold up to wear and tear.

Whether or not keyless door locks are safe and trustworthy depends on the visibility of the programming code—and a trespasser’s determination. Even if you carefully guard entry and programming codes, those trying to break in may be able to crack open the lock’s faceplate with a screwdriver and change the codes. The same goes for manual models.

Some find smart locks the safest option because it’s harder to manipulate codes without access to your phone. But it’s possible to get hacked even then. Consider installing an extended security system, like door and window alarms or surveillance cameras, to enhance security. 

Although you should rekey your locks after moving into a new home, you may feel more comfortable replacing the locks entirely. Here are some other scenarios when you should replace your locks rather than rekey them:

  • When someone moves out of your home.

  • There are too many copies of the existing key.

  • Your home experiences any type of break-in.

  • You lose your key with the address on it.

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. 

Yes, keyless locks can be quite safe, but their security depends on the type and quality of the lock you choose. Many keyless locks offer added features like biometric access, PIN codes, and smartphone connectivity, making them potentially more secure than traditional locks. However, keyless locks can also be susceptible to hacking, battery failure, or technical malfunctions, so it's important to choose a reliable brand and stay on top of software updates and maintenance.
