"Me and my wife Wendy Wilkinson want to give a huge shout out to Westside Connections Cornhole and their founders Deebo Brown and Jennifer Lyn. Thanks to them and their sponsor Family Locksmith, we were able to finally get a key(s) made for our truck that were lost almost 2 months ago. Some would say what is so special about getting keys made? Well this key was chipped and due to the vehicle being over 10 years old, everyone else said they were unable to do the job. We contacted several local car dealerships as well as several other locksmiths. I mean Wendy just about contacted everyone short of contacting the Ford Plant. It wasnt until I was looking at WestSide Connection Cornhole pictures from their league night that i saw their sponsors boards. Wendy contacted Family Locksmith today and the owner came out sooner than scheduled, was very professional, very reasonable and got the job done. So again thank you, Deebo, Jenn and Family Locksmith, you got us back to being a two vehicle family. We highly recommend them."

"Dave Smith was AWESOME! Very knowledgeable and patient. We added new items to our order at the 12th hour and he came back twice to make sure that everything was completed as we desired. We also had Alarm Protection Group secure our office. Dave Smith and Co. make the process very easy-Highly recommended."

"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."

"CSI Secure Solutions was absolutely amazing.  I requested their assistance on a Saturday morning, expecting to get a call or email back on the next business day.  Chris called me Saturday morning to start the work.  Emails continued throughout the weekend as we fine-tuned the search criteria and information available.  By noon Monday, they had found my missing person and emailed me a detailed report.  In addition to the success of the search, though, I want to add that Chris was a real professional.  He was supportive and empathetic while being creative and diligent in the search.  I cannot say enough good things about Chris and CSI Secure Solutions.

"OUTSTANDING!! Sergiy, Victor and Nik are simply the best contractors I have ever had!

Their work is meticulous. These guys are craftsmen. They obviously take tremendous pride in what they do.

They were punctual and extremely polite.

They solved problems encountered with great skill.

Communications were great. Sergiy went over the progress of the work each day and told me what they would work on the following days. He presented me with copies of all receipts for my review.

I am very pleased with their work and only wish I had found them years ago when I first started working on my house. I thought their price was extremely competitive as well.

"Choice responded quickly but the insurance plan does not pay for all doors to be re-keyed unless you have very few locks. The number of locks covered by the insurance is determined by keyholes, not doors! (Read your policy!) You will likely have to shell out some money to have this essential new-home service if you have more than four keyholes. The locksmith they called was EXCELLENT and made all our locks completely functional. We will happily hire the locksmith again (R.L Locksmith LLC). We paid $201.81 (plus another $50 for some door re-alignment not included in the re-keying benefit) and Choice paid $100 for the job."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Smart locks offer a similar level of safety to traditional or conventional locks because they often use comparable locking mechanisms, such as deadbolts. The primary difference is the access method: smart locks use a login or code instead of a physical key, which adds convenience. While not inherently safer, some smart locks have added security features that can deter intruders, like shutting down after too many incorrect code attempts or being harder to pick. For the best security, it's recommended to combine any lock with other home safety features like motion-activated lighting, security cameras, and window and door sensors.

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.

In general, keyless door locks are considered safe, and their security depends on the type and quality of the lock. They cannot be picked like a traditional lock and often include added features like biometric access, PIN codes, and smartphone connectivity, which can make them more secure. However, they are not without risks. Potential vulnerabilities include hacking for Wi-Fi-connected models, battery failure, power outages, and technical malfunctions. To maximize security, it is important to choose a reliable brand, stay on top of software updates, and perform regular maintenance. While the risks are different, keyless locks are not considered more dangerous than traditional locks.

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. 

Deadbolts are solid and durable as can be, but the pin and tumbler can still be forced open, thus making this type of lock susceptible to picking. Most types of deadbolts are harder to pick than a traditional spring-based lock, though. It requires a specialized lock pick and a tension wrench to align all of the pins, thus unlocking the door.
