"Brian and his brother are solid good people! Brian is an excellent Locksmith and he’s fair…although I purchased a new lock set, because I thought I needed it, he informed me he could do it cheaper, the lockset wasn’t needed and that what I saw as a problem was an everyday task for him…He was right, I saved money and I have a working lock…he’s on my “go to” list!"

Protecting homes and businesses since 1950, Guardian Protection is one of the nation's largest and most highly regarded security companies. We provide smart technology, 24/7 professional monitoring, and peace of mind to hundreds of thousands of customers. Our products are installed by experts, monitored by real people, and truly make a difference. We do what we do because of one simple truth: life is better when it's safe.

"We hired Guardian to install our security system at our Washington, DC, business. The service and quality of the work was horrible. We had cameras and an alarm system installed; it was a relatively large system. They outsource most of the work to various vendors. They could not manage their vendors; what was supposed to take a week took two months. The sales rep did not return calls, and you could never get anyone in management on the phone. Random people would show up at unannounced times. The few things that an actual Guardian employee did were they made a huge mess of our newly remodeled office and were rude to our staff. We have offices in five markets across the US and have high security at each; we have never had such a poor experience."

I am a sole propreitor, the voice on the phone is the face at the door. I service a "4" four county area. Most jobs serviced with in "1" one hour response time if not sooner. Don't be fooled by the big ads in the phone book. All jobs are quoted on the phone. My company philosophy is that all the customer's needs are met with the highest quality of workmanship, expedience and professionalism. Every customer is treated like a member of my family. No extra charge for weekends. Senior citizen and Military discounts.

"I called Bryan and we immediately set up a convenient appointment to have the work done. Bryan came when scheduled and did a great job for the service we requested. He was very courteous and professional and also offered good suggestions on some general questions that we had. The price was very reasonable. Would hire again and recommend his work to others."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Deadbolts are solid and durable as can be, but the pin and tumbler can still be forced open, thus making this type of lock susceptible to picking. Most types of deadbolts are harder to pick than a traditional spring-based lock, though. It requires a specialized lock pick and a tension wrench to align all of the pins, thus unlocking the door. 

A deadbolt has a different design, construction, and security level than a regular lock. Regular locks are mostly used for interior doors around the home, like bedrooms and bathrooms, and they usually include a locking mechanism on the inside. While regular locks are easy to use and install, they provide little security. 

A deadbolt adds a layer of security and is most commonly used on exterior doors. The installation is typically more complicated, but they hold up to wear and tear.

Most jobs take 30 minutes to 2 hours, but high-security systems or multiple lock installations may require additional time.

Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.

Costs depend on lock type, service complexity, labor, emergency availability, and whether security system integration is needed.
