Work in Wilmington area. I am a mobile locksmith. Licensed from the state of North Carolina through the NC Locksmith Board #1021. Licensed, Bonded, and Insured. I am a one man show, so I feel I can give more personal attention to your needs of the security of your home, business, or automotive Some people want to sell you items but I recommend what I see from my experience. If I cannot do the work I can always recommend someone who can usually do the work for you. I did not come a family of locksmiths so I attended the Arizona School of Locksmithing in Phoenix, AZ (http://www.azschooloflocksmithing.org/ ). It was a real life, hands on school with classwork time. However locksmiths do not just pop-up over night, its experience and knowledge. Its makes the difference between a parts changer to someone who can see past the issue you are having. License #1021, All Lockouts Auto Residential Commercial, Residential & Commercial Re-Key, Code Cut Keys,Master Key,Change Locks,Repair Locks,Install Locks,Panic Bars, Motorcycle Keys

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

A keypad deadbolt, a lock requiring a code entered on a keypad entry, can be a convenient option for families with children coming in and out and needing access to the home. It can also offer an easy solution if you rent your home out, since you can easily change the code as needed. So, depending on your home entry’s needs, a keypad deadbolt may be worth the extra expense.

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.

In some cases this is possible, but it’s not advisable as the screwdriver is likely to leave marks all over the wall and a noticeable dent on the door. Move slowly and carefully if you have to use this method, and consider calling an emergency locksmith right away instead of trying to break in.

Smart door locks are safe to use and are usually considered safer than traditional locks with keys. While all electronic devices can be hacked, that doesn’t happen nearly as frequently in real life as people may think. You can also invest in multiple locks of different types for enhanced security so you don’t rely solely on one smart lock.

A smart lock is a variation of a traditional lock, and since it uses similar locking mechanisms, it’s technically not any safer. The difference is that a smart lock requires a login instead of a physical key. Some smart locks have added safety features, like shutting down after too many attempts with the wrong code. Some smart locks are considered harder to pick than traditional locks, which can further deter intruders.
