Q: Why is my door handle turning but not opening?

• <div><p>If your door handle turns without opening, the most likely culprit is a loose or stripped spindle. This part connects the handles to the latch mechanism, and when it&rsquo;s not properly engaged, turning the handle does nothing. Other issues might include a broken latch, loose screws, or even something small blocking an inner mechanism. In any case, it&rsquo;s usually a matter of tightening, adjusting, or replacing a worn-out part inside the handle assembly&mdash;or calling in a professional to do it for you.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to change all your locks?

• <div><p>Expect to pay between <b>$50 to $200 </b>if you hire a locksmith to change your locks. That figure includes labor and the cost of basic hardware. The cost will naturally be higher if you plan to install more expensive locks, like smart locks, and if you need a lot of them.</p><p>Homeowners can save money by replacing locks themselves. A typical rekeying kit costs about <b>$10 to $25</b>. The only additional cost is purchasing new house keys, and those are no more than a few dollars per key. If you want to replace the locks on your own completely, the main cost is the price of the locks themselves. A standard knob-style lock starts around<b> $25</b>, while <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/keyless-lock-good-regular-deadbolt.htm">electronic locks and smart locks</a> will run in the hundreds of dollars. The only additional tools you should need are a tape measure, screwdriver, and screws if they are not already provided.</p></div>

Q: Can thieves open electric gates?

• <div><p>Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-security-gates.htm">security gates</a> are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to change your locks when you move to a new home?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Are keyless door locks safe?

• <div><p>In general, keyless door locks are considered safe. They can&rsquo;t be picked like a traditional lock, and unless a thief can guess your code, it&rsquo;s pretty tricky to break into a house with a keyless door lock. But that doesn&rsquo;t mean they come without risk. </p><p>When asking yourself, &quot;<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-pros-and-cons-keyless-locks.htm">Are keyless door locks safe</a>?&rdquo; consider the style of the system. Hackers could potentially break in if it operates on Wi-Fi, but it&rsquo;d take some time and effort. You&rsquo;re also at risk for a power outage, depending on the type of lock. That being said, there are no more risks associated with keyless door locks than a traditional lock. </p></div>

We couldn’t be happier with our kitchen remodel! The contractors were professional, had good attention to detail, and completed the project on time. The craftsmanship is like no other and our kitchen looks better than we ever imagined.
