"I called 911 Locksmith Services for my new home, and they easily scheduled an appointment that was convenient for me. Dylan at 911 Locksmith and Security is experienced, knowledgeable, and professional with locks and security. I wanted to replace key locks with keyless entry on three doors. I also needed to match hardware to fit my personal taste. Dylan came on time for my appointment, and was prepared with everything needed for the job. After he started the work, I asked if I could add a door lock that I had neglected to include, and Dylan had no problem making a quick run to the warehouse to pick up what I wanted, and had all three of my doors finished and secure in one afternoon. After the work was complete, he took time to make sure I understood how each secure lock works. Thank you 911 Locksmith and Security, and especially thanks to Dylan for a job done well. I would recomment 9ll Locksmith and Security to anyone who wants new locks or keyless entry installed. They are the best!"

"I had an experience with few other locksmith companies in the past, and it was not so great at all. Needless to say, Joey Is the most professional and courteous by far. He arrived right on time, and changed quickly and efficiently our home locks. I will recommend Joey to anyone who I know needing a reliable locksmith service."

"I highly recommend Alfa Builders & Remodeling! Moe did a phenomenal job renovating my home and completed the project within the promised timeframe. He remodeled both bathrooms, installed new countertops and walls, renovated the kitchen with beautiful countertops and cabinets, and installed new flooring throughout the entire house. What impressed me most was Moe's professionalism, positive attitude, and exceptional attention to detail. He takes pride in his work, and it truly shows in the finished product. The quality of the craftsmanship exceeded my expectations, and the entire renovation process was smooth from start to finish. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, skilled, and committed to delivering high-quality results, I would not hesitate to recommend Moe and Alfa Builders & Remodeling."

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.

Rekeying your own locks is a low-cost task that prevents you from having to replace the locks themselves completely. The first couple of times you rekey a lock may be challenging because this is an intermediate DIY task. You can purchase a rekey kit from most hardware stores, but make sure you’re buying the kit from the brand of lock in your home that you’re going to rekey. 

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.

It could be difficult to get in and out of a lock for several reasons, such as the keyhole needing additional lubrication. Particles, debris, and dirt can also get into a lock, making a key stuck (the lubrication can help with the removal). 

It is best to use a dry lubricant, such as a Teflon-based option, for door locks. Unlike popular oil-based lubricants, dry lubricants leave a non-stick, water-repellent coating that does not attract dust, dirt, and other debris. Using an oil-based lubricant can cause these particles to build up inside the lock, making it difficult to operate or even damaging the internal mechanism. You can find dry lubricants, some of which are made specifically for locks, at most hardware stores.
