"I called Alarm Protection Group AFTER my office was burglarized. Now I feel SAFE. William is great to work with. He's neat and tidy, prompt, presentable - not a butt-crack type of guy, and he doesn't leave a mess in his wake. He's also knowledgeable about the equipment and only uses high-quality products."

"Walter and Glen at Protect Your Home Group with ADT are the best people to talk to in terms of security alarm. Being a locksmith myself I know how important it is to deal with the right people. I referred a lot of customers to them and so far they are happy with their service. I myself got one for my house. Thank you for a consistent service and great deal."

"I had a bit of trouble with my molding around the doors vs how the system was designed. The tech guy hung with me for 39 minutes until it was perfect. I called customer service a couple times after that with questions that came up. The customer service team are professional and knowledgeable."

"We have friends who recently got burglarized and it really shook them up and with our 7 month old in the house we felt like it was time to get a security system. My husband works with technology so he was unimpressed with the capabilities of the old systems like we had in our old house. After looking around at what was out there now based on the TV commercials we had been seeing we knew that we wanted to go with one of the systems that had the home automation features tied into the security system. Especially the door locks and thermostat control. So nice not to have to walk downstairs and make sure if the doors are locked, or to adjust the thermostat. Now we just do it all from our phone from bed! Love that! Anyway, we got Noah's name from a friend that was in a similar situation as us and they gave us his info. After meeting with him, we knew we didn't need to meet with anyone else. Plus the reviews we found on Yelp were fantastic so that helped! The technology he offers is top of the line, provides great protection and is super simple to use. Even the online part! I was a little worried it would be too technical, but it couldn't be easier! We are very happy with our decision and it really does make a difference when my husband has to travel, both he and I feel a lot more secure! Can't buy that kind of piece of mind...well I guess you can actually. ;) Call Omniguard!!"

"JM Smith was great! I have to work all day, but I was able to coordinate an estimate (which was very reasonable) and installation via phone and texts. They kindly removed my barely-held-on gutters and replaced them with new ones in such a way that will last much longer than the previous shoddily-installed ones. They also took care of hauling away the olds ones."

"I would like to let everyone know, Devon knows what he is doing, and wasted no time making me a key for my Truck , that even the Ford dealership could not accomplish. Many companies you call and you fear the worst , expecting add ons or we can't be we charge you anyway. THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE TYPES! As a retired tradesman, It is good to see quality workmanship again. Your a good man Devon. Rob"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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.

The benefit of deadbolt locks is that they're much harder to force open than simple locks with pin tumbler mechanisms, so they may offer added security. This feature is why many locksmiths recommend deadbolts for home security. For many households, this added protection and peace of mind is well worth the cost of installing a deadbolt.

In general, keyless door locks are considered safe, and their security depends on the type and quality of the lock. They cannot be picked like a traditional lock and often include added features like biometric access, PIN codes, and smartphone connectivity, which can make them more secure. However, they are not without risks. Potential vulnerabilities include hacking for Wi-Fi-connected models, battery failure, power outages, and technical malfunctions. To maximize security, it is important to choose a reliable brand, stay on top of software updates, and perform regular maintenance. While the risks are different, keyless locks are not considered more dangerous than traditional locks.

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

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’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’s usually a matter of tightening, adjusting, or replacing a worn-out part inside the handle assembly—or calling in a professional to do it for you.
