"We were so pleased with the service we received from Ray of A and D Lock and Key. We put out a call and he returned it immediately and came to our house the same day. He was so thorough and professional and fixed our problem and checked all of our locks on our doors. It is wonderful to know that we have a locksmith that we trust and feel comfortable calling when we need him. ~Leslie Mxxxxxx and John Dxxxxxxx"

"The manager of the grocery store recommended her to call John and his company.  Boy was she glad she did!
John told her  he would be there in about 25 minutes. He was there in 22 minutes and in about 30 seconds he had her car unlocked. No damage to window, the rubber seal, or the lock. He was a lifesaver for her and the groceries!
She said he was very calm and professional. He was also extremely reasonable!  He only charged her $50 when he could have charged way more for someone in that kind of situation. She was very impressed and I am too. We highly recommend him.

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Rekeying door locks yourself costs a fraction of what you would expect to pay a locksmith. On average, it costs between $50 to $100 to hire a local locksmith to rekey your house, though labor costs may vary based on where you live. For a DIY solution, you can expect to spend $11 to $25 on a rekeying kit.

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.

When it comes to how to get a stuck key out of a lock, the simplest way is to use some kind of lubricating substance. One option is to apply graphite powder while wiggling the key gently. As the graphite fills the lock, jiggling should loosen the key enough to allow you to pull it out.

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.

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 inspect your locks regularly. A higher grade lock provides you with more cycles than those with a lower grade.
