"He called me in a matter of seconds after I submitted the request on home advisor which was amazing and exceptional customer service. He was very knowledgeable about the right type of lock I needed and even told me I could purchase it on my own and he would still install which I thought was very nice and showed he wasn’t trying to sell me his products in order to use his services. Mark arrived on time for the appointment and is extremely personable. I would hire him again if I need any locksmith services in the future. A big thumbs up from me."

"I have called over this locksmith after searching online. I have accidentally locked myself out of my apartment by forgetting the keys for a short moment while I wanted to get down to the lobby and grab my packages. I forgot for a moment that the door does not open from the outside so I locked myself outside. I have called this company to come and help me open the locked door and a very generous and helpful person came in for the rescue. He saw my issue with the door and just after opening it I requested if he could also change the whole door knob and lock for me that way I will not have to worry anymore. He was kind enough to do so and he did it very professionally without any mess. As other locksmiths like to do, they charge you a heavy price and make a very poor job, this one was very generous with the price and did the job just as I would expect from a professional locksmith. I was very pleased with this company and I highly recommend them!"

"My windows leaked air and my bedroom blinds needed to be replaced So I bought 2 new ones and also bought 2 kits to seal the windows. I used Angi previously and asked for a quote for a handyman to install and seal, T&S responded and sent a handyman to see what needed to be done. Quote was fair and I agreed. Handyman was able to start immediately and was professional did a great job. I would recommend them highly for any handyman type project."

"I would like to recognize employee Doug A at SafeStreet/ADT. We’ve had an old security system sitting in our house for over 15 years without service or functionality. He took the time to explain the differences between how the old systems work and how the new systems work. He was patient with us, and we are happy customers."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

First thing first: Make sure you’re using the right key. If it’s the correct key for your lock, there are a few reasons why it may not be working, like the key is worn out or the lock is jammed. Try lubricating the lock and pushing the door closed to ensure the mechanisms work correctly. If you’re still locked out, call in for help.

Many local hardware stores have the equipment to copy basic keys at a low cost. Some locations may have freestanding machines where you can pick out a blank and insert it and your original key into the duplicating machine.

Newer, electric-powered door locks generally have a life span of five years or less. That’s thanks, in large part, to a phenomenon called planned obsolescence, in which products are programmed to need replacing after a certain amount of time. That’s also why older, manual, push-key locksets can last up to 30 years with regular cleanings and maintenance. When it does come time for a new set-up, know that the cost to change locks ranges from $130 to $500 on average.

Using a combination of tools (often store-bought plumbing tools) and brute force, a burglar can easily snap the lock on a door. Snapping a lock aims to gain access to the cylinder inside, which holds the locking mechanism. Once the thief snaps the lock, they can pick the cylinder open and walk right in.

Rekeying a lock changes the internal mechanism so that a new key works, while replacing a lock involves swapping out the entire hardware. Rekeying is a good, cost-effective option when you want to ensure old keys no longer work, such as after moving into a new home or losing a key. It's also ideal if you want to keep your existing lock hardware. You should opt to replace the locks entirely if you want to upgrade to a more secure or different style of lock, if the current lock is old or damaged, after a break-in, or if too many copies of the old key exist.
