Can you cut a door knob off?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

How often should you change your locks?

• <div><p>Locksmiths recommend changing your locks once every seven years for the best security at your home. Locks can wear out over time, so you should <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-keys-proper-door-lock-maintenance.htm">inspect your locks</a> regularly. A higher grade lock provides you with more cycles than those with a lower grade. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install or repair commercial locks?

• <div><p>Most jobs take 30 minutes to 2 hours, but high-security systems or multiple lock installations may require additional time.</p></div>

Q: What's the most secure lock type for a house?

• <div><p>Security experts recommend deadbolt door locks on entry doors because they provide the best security. Deadbolts can prevent most types of forced entry and make your doors harder to lockpick. </p></div>

Q: Can a deadbolt be added to any door?

• <div><p>Yes, but adding a deadbolt to some door materials, like steel, may make installation a little bit trickier. For these materials, you will want to hire a locksmith to do the work for you, but be aware that they may charge an additional fee of $25 to $50 or more.</p></div>

They were in the area, and when they came out, they had to order the knob and what not for us because our door was old. They were in the area, so we didn't have to wait for someone to come from out of the area. They came out pretty quickly to see what our issue was.

She seemed to be very knowledgeable and very businesslike. She solved the problem I had quickly. I would give her a top score, except one thing, that she was supposed to get back to me about another issue and she didn’t get back about it. I will use her services again in the future.

We spent about $100 on that service. We called them mid day and they were out that afternoon, so they came out very quickly. I did not have anything to compare their price to.
