"Excellent! The technician was professional, prompt, courteous and got the job done. I needed a lock repaired on my sliding glass door to the deck, a door that was fairly old and for which there were no available parts! He was able to repair it. Also, I had the technician install a keyless entry deadbolt on my front door. His work was seamless and flawless. And the cost was modest, competitive with any other locksmith...Actually better, The services rendered were superb and the associated costs were surprisingly modest."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Lock bumping is a technique locksmiths use to quickly and quietly open a pin tumbler lock, typically found in most types of deadbolts. It involves inserting a specially crafted key, or bump key, into the lock and tapping or "bumping" it with a mallet or similar tool. The force applied causes the lock's pins to jump momentarily, allowing the lock to be turned and opened. Unfortunately, thieves also use this technique to break into homes. Luckily, products like a deadbolt strap will fortify your lock.

It depends on the quality of the keyless lock and usage, but in general, you can expect a keyless lock to last around three to five years. The batteries typically last around six to 12 months. The good news is most keyless locks include a low battery indicator so you can receive ample warning if your battery is about to die.

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

You can cut a door knob off using a sawzall, but you risk causing additional damage to the door itself. You’ll also need to completely replace the door knob, costing you extra money and another trip to the hardware store.

The easiest way to pick a lock is by using a titanium rake pick. This type of lock pick comes in a variety of shapes used to simulate different key configurations but generally has a tip with a bent design. Rake picks are the most beginner-friendly lockpicks and the simplest to learn how to use.
