"I called Alarm Protection Group AFTER my office was burglarized. Now I feel SAFE. William is great to work with. He's neat and tidy, prompt, presentable - not a butt-crack type of guy, and he doesn't leave a mess in his wake. He's also knowledgeable about the equipment and only uses high-quality products."

"I have already hired WP for additional jobs & highly recommended them. Flawless quality work. Detailed estimate up front with all receipts provided at end. Clear communication. They can do just about anything and will tell you if not. Willie runs this business from his home so no office expenses rolled into cost. AND he does the work himself with 1 employee vs. hiring day workers. I am a single 66 year old who was concerned about hiring someone I could trust. WP models integrity, honesty & a strong work ethic. Happy I found them."

"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."

"Sean did an excellent job. I had water damage in a small bathroom and he along with his wife, Erin, completed all the repair work. He built a beautiful vanity and repaired the drywall and painted. He is a master carpenter and his attention to detail shows. They were very respectful of my home and cleaned up after every project. He installed a new threshold to replace the original one that was damaged. He did a great job on this project that other people would not take. I sent requested photos to a couple of individuals and never heard back. Others that I contacted did not want the job. It is nice to have someone who will do the work right and doesn’t mind small jobs. I will definitely use Sean again when I have other projects."

"The work done was excellent. Wesley is very knowledgeable about all aspects of security cameras . He gave us very clear recommendations in which systems to use and then installed the cameras in a highly professional manner. Because he was upgrading an older camera existing system there were a few unexpected surprises he had to handle but he worked through and came up with great solutions for all of these issues and we now have a terrific product. He was also far more cost competitive than any of the larger camera companies. If I could give 6 stars I would."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Deadbolts are solid and durable as can be, but the pin and tumbler can still be forced open, thus making this type of lock susceptible to picking. Most types of deadbolts are harder to pick than a traditional spring-based lock, though. It requires a specialized lock pick and a tension wrench to align all of the pins, thus unlocking the door. 

When it comes to how to get a stuck key out of a lock, the simplest way is to use some kind of lubricating substance. One option is to apply graphite powder while wiggling the key gently. As the graphite fills the lock, jiggling should loosen the key enough to allow you to pull it out.

If part of the key is protruding out of the lock, you can use a pair of needle-nosed pliers or tweezers to gently turn the key in the lock to open the door. If the key is fully inserted into the lock, you may also be able to use a key extractor to help turn the key into the unlocked position. 

But if the key breaks off halfway into the lock or you simply can’t reach it to help engage the unlocking mechanisms, you should probably call a professional.

The cost to hire a locksmith varies depending on the service you need. Consult your locksmith about the price of your requested services before hiring for your repair or installation. Some of the most common types of locksmith services include:

  • Installing deadbolts: $40–$75

  • Rekeying: $80–$160

  • Unlocking your house: $65–$180

  • Changing locks: $50–$200

  • Installing electronic locks: $50–$500

  • Installing smart locks: $200–$800

  • Keyless locks: $50–$300

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