"It was A++ because they do what they say they do, they dont empty promises. They have a very old fashioned way of doing business. They already approach me even if i havent already tell them what i want. I go to them first than any other service. We have a nice relationship with them, they are very helpful to us in marketing for our local farmers market. they just blow my mind when they help us like that. Everyone should do their favor at wilsons hardware and locksmiths because they wont be dissapointed."

"David is a rare gem. Response time was phenomenal and he was very polite, professional, and it was a pleasure to have him do the job. He restored my old, old pitcher handled door lock, rebuilding it, as well as replacing a rusting Kwickset side door lock and doing a new lock installation to a storage closet."

I would highly recommend Advanced Lock and Security to anyone needing locksmith services. I will call them again if I need locksmith services in the future. Advanced Lock was great to do business with."

"Having dealt with locksmiths in the city before, Isaiah and his team were a breath of fresh air. No hidden fees, no cutting corners. They took the time to explain to me the challenges that they faced and offered me solutions to accomplish what I wanted to achieve. We service a number of clients, from individuals and management companies to full build-outs on new developments. If you want it done right the first time, there is no other option in my opinion.  We had a prior contractor do subpar work that could have cost us a substantial investment in refitting, but CPL offered us a number of solutions that allowed us to move forward with confidence. Prompt, knowledgeable, and professional. The Central Philadelphia Locksmiths are the only ones our people will use moving forward."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Rekeying your own locks is a low-cost task that prevents you from having to replace the locks themselves completely. The first couple of times you rekey a lock may be challenging because this is an intermediate DIY task. You can purchase a rekey kit from most hardware stores, but make sure you’re buying the kit from the brand of lock in your home that you’re going to rekey. 

If you also have a standard door leading to your garage, install a robust deadbolt lock and reinforce the frame with security plates. Then, secure any windows with shatterproof glass or film to deter break-ins. Consider a smart garage door opener for your car entrance, enabling remote monitoring and control through your smartphone. Motion-activated lighting around the garage to deter intruders is a great way to amplify these security efforts. Lastly, educate your family on security practices, such as keeping the garage entrances closed and locked.

Regrettably, entirely pick-proof locks don't exist unless you opt for keyless varieties. Locks advertised as "pick-proof" are, in reality, more resilient against lock-picking and bumping attempts because of complex mechanisms consisting of pins and sidebars. These locks work like this—they assign two tasks to the key, enhancing security by making unauthorized entry more challenging.

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.

You might want to change a door lock entry code for a handful of reasons. The most common answers are extra security or a forgotten code. You may also find yourself in a position where you need to temporarily change the code to allow a guest to come and go freely but want to switch it back once things return to normal.
