"Chris with Lock-It-Down Locksmith arrived at our home on time, replaced the malfunctioning locks quickly, explaining what was wrong and how he was going to fix it. He is very knowledgeable and was a pleasure doing business with. Angi has a winner with Lock-It-Down and I recommend them highly."

"I did  a search on Angie's List for Locksmiths - and a coupon came up listing Cars Unlocked for $49.00. I clicked on it not knowing that they were located in Arlington. (I live in Garland). The address never appeared on the coupon until after I had already purchased it; I called Dexter, thinking that perhaps the company had multiple locations, and he said no, that he was the only one , and located in Arlington. I was going to cancel and get a credit, but he insisted on taking care of me.
Anyway, he is really a nice guy, and you should all call him. I would say that I would use him again; however I would never ask him to drive this far again. Instead of making money on my job, I'm sure he lost at least $50.00 driving this far.
AND it's Angie's Lists' fault for not putting his address on the coupon."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Many local hardware stores have the equipment to copy basic keys at a low cost. Some locations may have freestanding machines where you can pick out a blank and insert it and your original key into the duplicating machine.

Security experts recommend deadbolt locks as the most secure option for a house's exterior or entry doors. Deadbolts provide the best security because they can prevent most types of forced entry and are harder to lockpick. Common types include the standard single-cylinder deadbolt, which is often found on front doors. For enhanced security, you can opt for a double-cylinder deadbolt, which requires a key to operate from both the inside and the outside.

The cost to hire a locksmith varies depending on the service you need. Consult your locksmith about the price of your requested services before hiring for your repair or installation. Some of the most common types of locksmith services include:

  • Installing deadbolts: $40–$75

  • Rekeying: $80–$160

  • Unlocking your house: $65–$180

  • Changing locks: $50–$200

  • Installing electronic locks: $50–$500

  • Installing smart locks: $200–$800

  • Keyless locks: $50–$300

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.

There is a reason many commercial garages and storage facilities have roller garage doors. They stand out as one of the most secure options due to their unique design. The compact installation and absence of visible leverage points on the sturdy aluminum curtain make them a formidable obstacle for potential intruders.
