"I called Alarm Protection Group AFTER my office was burglarized. Now I feel SAFE. William is great to work with. He's neat and tidy, prompt, presentable - not a butt-crack type of guy, and he doesn't leave a mess in his wake. He's also knowledgeable about the equipment and only uses high-quality products."

"Sam was wonderful to work with. He communicated with us about everything throughout the project and cleaned up while he worked. We were happy with all the work that was done including demo, drywall, door installation, painting, cabinet install, floor and backsplash tile work. Most importantly, Sam is trustworthy and honest. We would definitely hire Sam to do other projects in the future."

"Without a moment's hesitation, I would recommend Fabian to anyone looking for quality work done by someone who is an artisan, an artist and a jack of all trades. He does it all: electric, tiling, plumbing, painting and more . He did a complete renovation of my master bathroom and extensive updating in 2 others. Because of his cheerful personality, punctuality, reliability, integrity, and flexibility, he made what would ordinarily be a stressful situation an absolute delight. I might also add that he is a consummate diplomat with excellent taste who helped me make choices when I was overwhelmed with selections or without any clear vision. I would hire him again in a heartbeat"

"Walter and Glen at Protect Your Home Group with ADT are the best people 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."

"Clear on the phone about costs.  Came the next morning.  Gave us very good advice.  We added a job and he priced it fairly.
Next time we need a good locksmith we don't have to think.

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.

Yes, you should always change your locks after buying a house. Do so as soon as possible after you move in. Otherwise, you won’t know who has working keys to the property, whether they’re spare keys or otherwise. If an intruder gains access to your house with a key, it may not be covered under your homeowners insurance.

It can affect security, especially if you don’t finish it properly. A Dutch door has more moving parts that can be compromised, so you’ll want to use solid hardware and make sure everything lines up and locks cleanly. If the latch is flimsy or the two halves don’t sit tight, it’s going to be easier to force open.

If part of the key is protruding out of the lock, you can use a pair of needle-nosed pliers or tweezers to gently turn the key in the lock to open the door. If the key is fully inserted into the lock, you may also be able to use a key extractor to help turn the key into the unlocked position. 

But if the key breaks off halfway into the lock or you simply can’t reach it to help engage the unlocking mechanisms, you should probably call a professional.

A deadbolt differs from a regular lock in its design, construction, and security level. Regular locks are typically used for interior doors, such as for bedrooms and bathrooms, and provide minimal security. They are easy to install and use, often featuring a simple locking mechanism on the inside. In contrast, a deadbolt is one of the most secure locks you can install on an exterior door. Its internal construction is designed to withstand significant force, adding a crucial layer of security that can deter intruders. While deadbolts may be more expensive and complicated to install, they are cost-effective for the security they provide and are built to hold up to wear and tear.
