"I've been using this company for quite some time. He last installed a door for me that I purchased from Lowe's. Working with this company is very good. I've always been satisfied with his work, and I have other projects I'll have him work on in the future. Great company."

"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."

"Albert was awesome. Searched for Locksmith companies on Angie's list. The Locksmith Company called told them my issue they came out and gave me a quote within an hour. Called them back the next day asked them to go ahead and come out and do the work. Albert Aguirre came out the next day and took care of the issue in a timely manner. Have recommended them to our other campus and will use them again in the future."

"This company is really as good as all the positive reviews suggest.  They arrived on time and removed our weather-worn double front door and installed a temporary door. A week later the refinished door was installed looking way better than it did when we purchased it! Restore Your Door did an excellent job!

"We needed a new opener, coils and springs for our garage door. Choice responded quickly and sent Andrew. Andrew provided the service and was very professional. He finished the job in less than one hour. He even provided a few maintenance checks just to be certain the door is still good. Great service. Thanks Andrew! Thanks Choice!

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

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. 

Smart locks offer a similar level of safety to traditional or conventional locks because they often use comparable locking mechanisms, such as deadbolts. The primary difference is the access method: smart locks use a login or code instead of a physical key, which adds convenience. While not inherently safer, some smart locks have added security features that can deter intruders, like shutting down after too many incorrect code attempts or being harder to pick. For the best security, it's recommended to combine any lock with other home safety features like motion-activated lighting, security cameras, and window and door sensors.

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.

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.

In some cases this is possible, but it’s not advisable as the screwdriver is likely to leave marks all over the wall and a noticeable dent on the door. Move slowly and carefully if you have to use this method, and consider calling an emergency locksmith right away instead of trying to break in.
