"I bought 2 key fobs intending to program them myself, only to find I couldn't. Then I find most locksmiths are mobile and charge a mobile fee just to come to me: another unexpected expense. Roland of Alamo Keys was wonderful - he offered to meet me (which negated the mobile fee of coming to me) and he gave me a Military DC. Thank you, Roland! In addition, he was professional, pleasant and efficient. He helped to reduce an unexpected expensive and stressful event into a near pleasurable experience. I'm definitely calling Roland again if I am in need."

"Bob is a fantastic handyman. He was direct, on time, courteous and i would hire him again. We hired him to repair a hole in our cieling drywall. He knew exactly what needed to be done, and delivered. We have young children and having Bob around was no concern for us. He is a honorable and upstanding man. His price was reasonable. He was overall, just right."

"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."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

As with any computer, smart locks can be hacked by someone with the technical skills to do so, but most people do not have that ability, making smart locks relatively safe. If you have any concerns about a compromised smart lock, opt for an encrypted smart lock, change your Wi-Fi password, and make sure that you only give out your password to trusted family and friends.

Security systems are one of the measures that deter burglars the most. Research suggests most burglars look for signs of a security system before going in, although the presence of a security system doesn’t automatically mean they won’t enter the home. However, a security system with cameras can decrease the chance of a burglary overall.

Lock picking is a relatively subtle method of unauthorized access, making it hard to detect. But there are telltale signs to look for. First, look for scratches or tool marks around the keyhole or the lock's surface. Also, check for loose or misaligned components, like a wonky strike plate, which could indicate tampering. Consulting a locksmith or security professional for an assessment can provide valuable insights, too. Investing in high-quality locks and considering additional security measures, like security cameras, can help deter potential intruders and enhance your overall safety.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

Commercial locksmith services range from $75 to $500, depending on the job's complexity, such as key duplication, lock installation, or access control system setup.
