"Jeff is not only experienced and very professional, but he is a very nice person to hire. He returns phone calls promptly, analyzed my lock problems and gave me an excellent explanation and proposed treatment. He is need and clean, and I felt very confident having him on my job. All my deadbolts were fixed, properly readjusted and he even checked my entrance keys for wear. I would not hesitate to hire Jeff and Lock Wizard again! Dr. Jim"

"I had a great experience with this locksmith! He programmed a new key for my 2021 Cadillac XT5 quickly and professionally. He was knowledgeable, reliable, and made sure everything worked perfectly before finishing. The whole process was smooth and hassle-free. Great service at a fair price. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs automotive locksmith or key programming services. 5 stars!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Yes, many locksmiths offer 24/7 emergency services for business lockouts, broken keys, and security breaches.

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. 

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.

It is best to use a dry lubricant, such as a Teflon-based option, for door locks. Unlike popular oil-based lubricants, dry lubricants leave a non-stick, water-repellent coating that does not attract dust, dirt, and other debris. Using an oil-based lubricant can cause these particles to build up inside the lock, making it difficult to operate or even damaging the internal mechanism. You can find dry lubricants, some of which are made specifically for locks, at most hardware stores.

In some cases this is possible, but it’s not advisable as the screwdriver is likely to leave marks all over the wall and a noticeable dent on the door. Move slowly and carefully if you have to use this method, and consider calling an emergency locksmith right away instead of trying to break in.
