"My neighbor had Right Hand Industries install an attic ladder. I had been wanting to do the same. I went over to look at the ladder and Ben was there finishing another project. After seeing the attic ladder and the other project, I was impressed by the finished jobs. As soon as you meet Ben and see his work, you get a good feeling about having him do your project. Within 30 minutes Jennifer sent me a quote along with photos of the product they would be installing. When Ben and his crew came out to replace my wooden ladder, you could tell they knew what they were doing. They installed a metal ladder with plenty of toe room and a hand rail. Ben even went in the attic with me and installed a grab bar to make things easier and safer as you stepped from the ladder. These guys were prompt, neat, polite, and never even took a break during this whole process. Finding reliable contractors can be a challenge, but I know I'll be calling them back for anything I might need."

"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."

Customers say: Quick response

"Tom and Rex are great and I would recommend them without any reservations. Tom and Rex rescued us after a very bad experience with another â contractor.â They are professional, polite, and deliver great work. Tom and Rex removed and reinstalled all the trim throughout the home fixing the serious problems left by the prior individual. Rehung all the doors. Made certain all was plumb and square. Their trim work is beautiful. Tom crafted custom vanities and a banquet sitting area. Beautiful work. Rex reworked the Sheetrock and finished it beautifully. Tom built custom drawers for under the banquet and vanities. Beautiful work and soft close drawers. I am happy to speak with anyone about their work. I would not hesitate to hire them for future projects. My cell is 336 6241648. Jim"

Locksmiths FAQs, answered by experts

Rekeying is typically cheaper than replacing locks. Professional rekeying costs between $40 and $160, sometimes with an additional fee of $15 to $40 per lock. A locksmith's hourly rate averages around $75. If you do it yourself, a rekeying kit can cost as little as $10. In contrast, replacing a lock costs between $130 and $500, with an average of around $315, depending on the hardware and lock type. Rekeying is a simpler process that changes the key for your existing lock without replacing the hardware. It is a good option if you have a quality lock that works well, you've recently moved, you've lost a key, or you need a quick security upgrade. The best choice depends on the condition of your current locks.

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. 

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.

Yes, locksmiths can design and install master key systems that grant different levels of access to various employees while maintaining overall security.

First thing first: Make sure you’re using the right key. If it’s the correct key for your lock, there are a few reasons why it may not be working, like the key is worn out or the lock is jammed. Try lubricating the lock and pushing the door closed to ensure the mechanisms work correctly. If you’re still locked out, call in for help.
