Customers say: True professional

"I needed assistance with repairing an exterior house door. I contacted KMA Home Improvement and was informed that Kris could be at my house in half an hour to assess the door and inform me of cost. He was very prompt, looked at the door and told me he had the tools, the knowledge and the time to fix the door. I was estactic and of course said yes. Job was completed and he showed me how everything worked and cleaned up. Very professional and kind. I will contact this company again when I need some work done at my home."

"Neatnics, provided excellent service at a great price in a very speedy and organized manner. Communication with Neatnics staff was extremely professional and organized. They took the time to help me develop and prioritize a very long list of repairs, and were very clear and accurate with the scope and cost of these much needed home improvement efforts. They also provided guidance on other long term fixes and the hiring of other specialists such as locksmiths, specialty electricians and plate glass providers. I would strongly recommend Neatnics to other Angie"s list members and am grateful for their professionalism and quality. I rate Neatnics as a AAA+ provider, for the services they provided me and would believe they are very capable for the mentioned services and those they further advertise.

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

When you take a key to a hardware store or a locksmith for copying, you can expect the key-cutting process to take as little as 30 seconds. The key copier will review your current key to decide on the correct blank. Then, your original key and the blank are inserted into a key duplication machine to cut an exact key copy. When it’s all said and done, you can have a new key in your hand in just a couple of minutes.

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.

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.

If part of the key is protruding out of the lock, you can use a pair of needle-nosed pliers or tweezers to gently turn the key in the lock to open the door. If the key is fully inserted into the lock, you may also be able to use a key extractor to help turn the key into the unlocked position. 

But if the key breaks off halfway into the lock or you simply can’t reach it to help engage the unlocking mechanisms, you should probably call a professional.

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.
