"I had an excellent experience with this locksmith company when I needed help at my house. They arrived quickly after my call and immediately got to work. The technician was professional, polite, and clearly experienced. They fixed my lock fast without causing any damage to my door. Everything was handled smoothly, and I felt secure again in no time. I truly appreciate their fast and professional service and would highly recommend them to anyone."

"Phil Campbell of Lock Rescue was absolutely outstanding. His work is of the highest quality. He repaired our back door frame by practically rebuilding it to a better than new condition. He was extremely courteous and professional. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs his services. In fact, we have other projects in which we hope to utilize Phil's expertise and competence. As another reviewer has stated, if you use his services, you will not be disappointed."

"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

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.

Many insurance providers offer policy discounts when adding security features to your home. The best way to find out if new locks will reduce your premium is to simply ask your agent.

Any type of dead bolt lock provides the highest level of safety for a single device. However, it’s also important to determine a lock's grade. Locks can come in either Grade 1, Grade 2, or Grade 3, which indicates how durable it is and if it’s constructed solidly. Safety experts recommend choosing locks based on Grade 1, which offers the highest level of durability.

Rekeying should be done when employees leave or keys are lost, while replacement may be necessary for outdated or damaged locks.

Locksmiths recommend changing your locks once every seven years for the best security at your home. Locks can wear out over time, so you should inspect your locks regularly. A higher grade lock provides you with more cycles than those with a lower grade.
