"Errol and his son arrived on time, repaired my screen door as good as new. They were so professional and skilled, the whole process was a pleasure. I intend to use Reid services again and recommend them to my friends."

"Joe does great work! He's a very respectful and considerate professional. I don't trust easily and Joe is the only contractor who I would trust to do work in my home while I'm not there. He does a lot more than what he advertises so just ask for a quote and I bet you'll be surprised."

"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."

"Chris did excellent work. His capabilities to do various handyman projects is great. He has completed many projects for me, I have an old home and we found a few pin holes in my plumbing that have started to show up in my downstairs. We worked together and he helped me replace all the piping. He also installed crown molding in my dining room for me and did a fantastic job. Chris has all the qualities you can ask for; reliability, accountability, responsibility and he provides great value. What you pay for and what he accomplishes, he does a quality job in a timely manner."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Security experts recommend deadbolt locks as the most secure option for a house's exterior or entry doors. Deadbolts provide the best security because they can prevent most types of forced entry and are harder to lockpick. Common types include the standard single-cylinder deadbolt, which is often found on front doors. For enhanced security, you can opt for a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate from both the inside and the outside.

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

Most jobs take 30 minutes to 2 hours, but high-security systems or multiple lock installations may require additional time.

Changing door locks is a task that most homeowners can accomplish on their own. Standard door knobs are quite straightforward, and even more advanced locks, like electronic or smart locks, generally come with instructions. That said, the process can be time-consuming, especially if you plan to replace multiple locks around the house. It’s also a task that you want to complete correctly, considering that it affects the security of your house. That’s why hiring a pro is often best when changing your door locks.

Aside from the labor costs, several other factors can impact the cost of hiring a locksmith. If you can avoid services during off-hours, you can save on fees often charged for urgent requests. Consider additional factors such as:

  • Type of services required

  • Emergency call fees

  • Home and lock location

  • Number of locks to repair or install

  • Peak hours

  • Type of locks
