"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."

"**Rating: 5/5 Stars** Josh did a phenomenal job knocking out a long list of mounting and installation projects around my house. He was on time, extremely professional, and brought all his own tools. You can tell he has a background in project management and contracting because he really knows what he is doing. He didn't rush through anything; he took the time to meticulously measure and level every single item to make sure it was done right. On top of being highly skilled and efficient, he is just a genuinely nice person. If you want someone reliable who takes pride in their work, I highly recommend Josh. I will definitely be reaching out to him again for future projects! I’ll come back and update with pictures but I’m extremely happy with the work 🎉🎉"

"I would have hire Elijah to complete my locksmith need. I call and he quickly contacted me. I explained that my son had lost his key fob in our house. My sons vehicle is push to start. He gave me a great price and I was ready to hire him. He suggested that we look around the house one more time in since my son had driven it home the night before and that is what we did. WE FOUND THE KEY FOB! Elijah possess high integrity with his customer's and gave excellent advise. He could have easily take our money and completed the job. If you are looking for a locksmith that treats his customer's with integrity and respect Carter's Locksmith is the one. If/ when I need a locksmith he will the one I contact"

"I had a bit of trouble with my molding around the doors vs how the system was designed. The tech guy hung with me for 39 minutes until it was perfect. I called customer service a couple times after that with questions that came up. The customer service team are professional and knowledgeable."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Begin by checking the power source, typically a battery or wired connection. Ensure the battery is installed correctly, has sufficient charge, and isn't corroded. If it's a wired lock, examine the electrical connections to confirm they are secure and free from damage. Additionally, inspect the lock's programming or settings. Confirm that user codes or access credentials are programmed correctly and that any remote control devices are paired and functional.

Several types of deadbolts are available, including single-cylinder, double-cylinder, rim, smart, and electronic deadbolt locks. The most common type found in U.S. homes is the single-cylinder deadbolt, which uses a key on the exterior and a thumb turn on the interior. A double-cylinder deadbolt features two locking mechanisms and requires a key to be operated from both the inside and the outside.

It’s possible, but depends on the design of your lock. Some door locks that lack a keyhole do boast a small hole on the exterior handle or knob. This hole’s primary function is to allow water to drain out of the lock, in addition to giving homeowners an easy spot to insert lubrication. However, you can typically use a paperclip in this pinhole to unlock the door by manipulating the mechanism inside. 

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. 

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.
