"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."

"Blake did a fantastic job. He made room for me in his schedule so that I could get my apartment dialed in quickly. He turned up at on time. He was particular about checking in with me as to the placement of art before hanging it. I have a couple of tryptics and some very large pieces that required a lot of measuring to be placed correctly. Blake is a walking advertisement for the idiom "measure twice, cut once". I have an uploaded a photo of part of the install. For the quality work that he did, his prices were very reasonable. I would recommend Blake unreservedly."

"I found Eric's Handyman Service through HomeAdvisor and I couldn't be more happy with the work that was done. Great communication through text and phone calls, absolutely listens to what you want done and recommends anything else you may not have thought about. I used Eric's Handyman service to repair the wooden fence around my house and build a new entry gate. All of the work was complete quickly and at the price we agreed on. Fantastic experience."

"My son was visiting friends and locked his keys in the car. I searched locksmiths and found Liberty Lock. I called Liberty and they said they'd have someone out right away. My son said the van was there within 30 minutes. Liberty called me and verified the vehicle was mine and asked what my preferences were for the work and then let me know the price up front. The Liberty man was very nice and professional. My son also told me that he was friendly."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Using a combination of tools (often store-bought plumbing tools) and brute force, a burglar can easily snap the lock on a door. Snapping a lock aims to gain access to the cylinder inside, which holds the locking mechanism. Once the thief snaps the lock, they can pick the cylinder open and walk right in.

Yes, you should change the locks as soon as you can after completing the purchase of a house. This is a matter of privacy and security, as you have no idea how many copies of the keys the previous owner made. You can change the locks yourself or hire a pro to replace or rekey the lock, which costs $50 to $100.

Standard residential deadbolt locks come with a steel bolt that locks your door into place using a key (or keypad) on one side and a thumb turn on the other. When you lock it, the bolt slides into a strike plate on your door jamb to secure your door shut.

Yes, keyless locks can deter burglars, mostly because they boost security and offer advanced features. Most models allow for unique codes or temporary access, making it harder for intruders to break in. Many of these smart locks even alert you if someone tries to tamper with them. However, you need to remember that while they provide an added layer of protection, no lock is completely foolproof. Pairing these locks with good security habits—like proper lighting and surveillance cameras—creates a strong defense to help stop intruders in their tracks.

Whether or not keyless door locks are safe and trustworthy depends on the visibility of the programming code—and a trespasser’s determination. Even if you carefully guard entry and programming codes, those trying to break in may be able to crack open the lock’s faceplate with a screwdriver and change the codes. The same goes for manual models.

Some find smart locks the safest option because it’s harder to manipulate codes without access to your phone. But it’s possible to get hacked even then. Consider installing an extended security system, like door and window alarms or surveillance cameras, to enhance security.
