"The door looks good...not great..but certainly good. In addition to refinishing my door, they claimed to be experts at making the iron on the door look good again. I asked about their process and they explained it would be partially sanded down, all the chipped paint would be removed, a base coat of rust covering primer would be sprayed and several coats of paint would then be applied. The day after my door was returned, I noticed chipping in multiple places on the iron. No thorough sanding, no primer whatsoever. The chips in the paint revealed virtually no prep work. They had sprayed one coat of paint (drips and all). Very unprofessional job. When I called, they came out right away to get the iron. The responsiveness was very good. Unfortunately, because they did such a terrible job and had to redo it, I had to schedule two more times of meeting them at my house (to get the iron and to return the iron). They still charged me for the iron “refurbishing” despite the poor workmanship, outright misrepresentation, and taking up a lot more of my time. The end product was not good. There are still spots that weren’t painted and had the rust showing through. Overall, I paid way too much and would use another company next time."

Locksmiths questions, 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.

Lubricating a door lock is an important part of door lock maintenance. It involves taking the lubricant of your choice (it’s best to use whatever the lock’s manufacturer suggests) and spraying it directly into the keyway. Push and pull your key in and out of the lock to make sure it’s all the way in. 

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

Costs depend on lock type, service complexity, labor, emergency availability, and whether security system integration is needed.

Rekeying a lock changes the internal mechanism so that a new key works, while replacing a lock involves swapping out the entire hardware. Rekeying is a good, cost-effective option when you want to ensure old keys no longer work, such as after moving into a new home or losing a key. It's also ideal if you want to keep your existing lock hardware. You should opt to replace the locks entirely if you want to upgrade to a more secure or different style of lock, if the current lock is old or damaged, after a break-in, or if too many copies of the old key exist.
