"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."

"Excellent service from Handy Squad Home Services! They were able to come out the very same day I called, which was a huge plus. My technician, Benny, was professional, knowledgeable, and quickly diagnosed the issue with both my front and back doors. He adjusted the latches so they aligned properly and made sure the deadbolts fully extended and locked securely. Everything works smoothly now, and the quality of the work was excellent. Benny took the time to explain what he was doing and made sure everything was working perfectly before he left. I really appreciated the prompt response and great customer service. I highly recommend Handy Squad Home Services and will definitely use them again!"

"Dave is one of the most professional contractors I have ever worked with in 20 years. He keeps you informed for the entire project and goes beyond your expectations. I live out of town so it was very important to be updated. Dave called, sent texts, and photos to ensure my comfort with the progress. He is very concerned about your property and makes you aware of any issues that need to be addressed. I highly recommend Dave and his company."

"David was the only handyman listed to answer his phone on a Sunday. I needed work done the following Saturday as it was our only day off. He doesn't typically work on Saturday but agreed to do the work. He arrived on time and got right to work on hanging a very delicate chandelier in a very high place. He also installed a doggie door. They were very professional, finished in a timely manner and charged a fair price. I would use them again and recommend them."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Rekeying is typically cheaper than replacing locks. Professional rekeying costs between $40 and $160, sometimes with an additional fee of $15 to $40 per lock. A locksmith's hourly rate averages around $75. If you do it yourself, a rekeying kit can cost as little as $10. In contrast, replacing a lock costs between $130 and $500, with an average of around $315, depending on the hardware and lock type. Rekeying is a simpler process that changes the key for your existing lock without replacing the hardware. It is a good option if you have a quality lock that works well, you've recently moved, you've lost a key, or you need a quick security upgrade. The best choice depends on the condition of your current locks.

Costs depend on lock type, service complexity, labor, emergency availability, and whether security system integration is needed.

There are several ways to add security to a sliding glass door. To start, install a rod or deadbolt lock instead of the flip-lock that comes standard with most sliding glass doors. Add a sensor to the door and monitor any activity through your home security system.

Finally, installing shatterproof window film will help keep the structural integrity of the glass if it cracks.

Rekeying should be done when employees leave or keys are lost, while replacement may be necessary for outdated or damaged locks.

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.
