"This is the second time we have used Mr. Handyman for various projects after our recent move into our new home. Dameon was our Handyman and he was able to work with us and the few curve balls we sent his way as the projects evolved. Great timely service at a fair price."

"I would like to recognize employee Doug A at SafeStreet/ADT. We’ve had an old security system sitting in our house for over 15 years without service or functionality. He took the time to explain the differences between how the old systems work and how the new systems work. He was patient with us, and we are happy customers."

"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."

"Jay came out looked at the issue and gave me a quote to fix it. He was professional and so was his employee. They came a few days later fixed the issue with precise and increíble workmanship and kept me infomed the entire time. They cleaned up when done and stayed exactly on his original quote. No surprises or tons of extra costs. Very professional and I would absolutely hire him and his crew again. I highly recommend this company to anyone."

"Jose arrived Friday morning to give me an estimate. He did not try to oversell me on new garage doors, and told me that only my hardware needed to be replaced. I agreed to his price (VERY reasonable) and he had a crew out here within a few hours to complete the job. Very professional work and very courteous people. I will definitely use them on any future needs (considering a security system through them)."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Most door knobs can be removed with a Phillips or flathead screwdriver. If you don’t have either of those available, a paper clip or small pin can sometimes work, but the extra effort may not be worth a quick trip to the hardware store.

In some cases this is possible, but it’s not advisable as the screwdriver is likely to leave marks all over the wall and a noticeable dent on the door. Move slowly and carefully if you have to use this method, and consider calling an emergency locksmith right away instead of trying to break in.

Yes, as long as it’s thick enough for the deadbolt. Most interior hollow core doors are at least 1 1/2-inches thick, which is usually the minimum requirement for a deadbolt. You’ll want to find the lock block first before installing. Also, most hollow doors require additional reinforcement for locks, such as a reinforcement plate or plywood block.

If you don’t have your original key, the easiest way to obtain a copy is to call a locksmith. For house keys, your locksmith has several options for configuring a new key: 

  • They can input a lock’s identification code into a database to obtain key-cutting instructions.

  • They could analyze the lock cylinder to determine how to cut a new key.

  • They can create an impression of the lock cylinder from which to cut a new key. 

There are many types of deadbolts, but these tips work on most. First, address any grime buildup. A bit of WD-40 will loose up rust and dirt so the deadbolt can turn. Inspect the door and frame alignment if this doesn't resolve the issue. Adjust the strike plate or the deadbolt's position to improve alignment. If the problem persists, disassemble the lock to inspect for damaged or worn parts. If you are unsure how to do it, hire a local locksmith.
