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."

"Freeport Garage Door is HORRIBLE! Don't go here unless you want to be treated rudely and given sub quality work My garage door came off it's track, "Karen" the alleged owner, sent out a technician, Erik whose sub standard work only lasted hours after his poor attempt to repair my door. When I called that Karen on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving she lied and said her store would not be open until Tuesday... I called Monday to leave a voicemail and that Karen assistant. and older raspy sounding woman said, "Yes were open for business". I started to tell her about the issues with their sub quality work.. the door off the track, the lock their incompetent technician, Erik installed, could not be opened with extra keys I had made at a licensed locksmith. The older woman started a conversation with that Karen who later got on the phone with her nasty attitude and rude disposition. At this point I was frustrated and annoyed with her lack of respect. My 90 year old mother pick up the phone to disarmed the situation and that Karen told her she would call her back in the afternoon for a another technician to come out.. that was Monday, November 28, 2022 at 1pm.. it's now Tuesday and we'er still waiting for that call. I truly believe in supporting local business, but when customers are given sub standard work and charged top dollar than met with disrespect, and lies then they don't deserve to have well paying customers. Don't use this place, we deserve better when there is other companies who want our business and treat you with respect."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

The benefit of deadbolt locks is that they're much harder to force open than simple locks with pin tumbler mechanisms, so they may offer added security. This feature is why many locksmiths recommend deadbolts for home security. For many households, this added protection and peace of mind is well worth the cost of installing a deadbolt.

It’s possible, but depends on the design of your lock. Some door locks that lack a keyhole do boast a small hole on the exterior handle or knob. This hole’s primary function is to allow water to drain out of the lock, in addition to giving homeowners an easy spot to insert lubrication. However, you can typically use a paperclip in this pinhole to unlock the door by manipulating the mechanism inside. 

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

One of the best tools for removing a stripped bolt is a handy pair of locking pliers. Locking pliers can usually grip onto screws with a broken, rounded, or stripped head and lock in place so that you can loosen even the most stubborn bolt that would otherwise remain hopelessly jammed.

Yes, most pros encourage you to change your locks when you move into a new home. While the previous owner may hand you their keys, you have no way of knowing whether other copies exist elsewhere. Changing your locks as soon as you move in is a great way to ensure that you can enjoy new, fully functioning locks that will work with your unique key or code.
