"Zee was great to work with for our service call. He arrived quickly and replaced the key cylinder mechanism on a very old rusted entry lock. He resolved the problem within 30 minutes. I’m extremely happy with his service and his price was very reasonable. I would definitely call him again for locksmith services."

"The gentleman who came out and made my key at 9:00 pm which was a lifesaver. I live in Bracey Virginia and I had been trying to find a locksmith to come out and make a key after 10 calls to locksmith everyone of them said we donâ t serve that area even though the companyâ s I did call were in South Hill which is about 15 minutes from me. Luckily for me I found this locksmith and he was very friendly called when he was on his way and called when he arrived. I will definitely keep their number in my contacts and pass it along to my friends. I am very satisfied and grateful to them for being so professional and getting the job done. So thank you to the gentleman who came out and did this for me!"

"I called several other lock smiths before I found Baldino's. All of them turned out to use the same sub contractor, who I waited for for hours and finally just told not to come. I found Baldino's at 9:30pm that night, and they only use their own technicians on jobs, which immediately made me feel like I was in good hands. Beyond that, when I placed the first call, the representative was calm and detailed (unlike the other locksmiths who seemed to barely have time to write down my phone number). They gave me an ETA that was long but honest, which I appreciated, so I know I could go home and wait, and because it was late in the evening, there were some extra charges.
When the technician arrived, Craig was competent and quick with his work to recover my keys. I would recommend them 100%.

"Recently moved into a large new home in Rosement neighborhood in Alexandria. The property had a huge number of exterior and interior doors, all with different locks.  Previous owner's had a dozen different keys for different locks.  Our goal was to change all the locks to new keys for security and have all  exterior locks on one key.
 
Given the sheer size of the place, and the high number of doors, we knew it would be a big job. Baldinos was recommended by our Real  Estate agent as a quality locksmith with a good reputation in Old Town area.  Called on a Thursday and got a time window the next day - 10am to 2 pm.
Brad called about 11:30 and said he'd be at our house at noon, which he was. 
Brad was polite and professional.  He listen to our directions, surveyed the house and got work.   He encountered some tricky situations (there is a separate apartment with the property), he called us over and explained the situation and made recommendations (separate key for the apartment locks) which we followed.
Brad was at our house for nearly 3 and 1/2 hours, working quietly  and efficiently.  At completion, we had new lock sets, one key for all exterior doors and separate keys for the apartment.

"Top-notch service. It was cold night, so the situation was something of an emergency. I consulted Angie's List and called Tivoli Locksmith. The locksmith came immediately and handled the situation with real professionalism. I don't know what my neighbor was charged, so I can't comment about the price, but I was very, very impressed with the service. I hope I don't run into a similar situation, but if I ever do, I'd trust Tivoli."

"After getting locked out of the house one evening, we called ER Locksmith because they were local and had good reviews here.  We were not disappointed.  Although it was outside of normal business hours, our call was answered, our information was taken and we were told we would be contacted by a technician shortly.  About 2 minutes later, the technician called us and said he could be there in 10 minutes!!  He was right on time, and he had the door open in less than 10 minutes."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

You might want to change a door lock entry code for a handful of reasons. The most common answers are extra security or a forgotten code. You may also find yourself in a position where you need to temporarily change the code to allow a guest to come and go freely but want to switch it back once things return to normal.

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.

There are several situations when you should change or replace your locks to ensure your home's security. Key moments include moving into a new house, after a break-in or attempted break-in, or when a roommate or anyone else with a key moves out. It is also wise to change your locks if you lose your keys, especially if they have an address attached or you suspect they were stolen. Finally, if your locks are old, broken, worn out, or have become unreliable, they should be replaced.

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 your door handle turns without opening, the most likely culprit is a loose or stripped spindle. This part connects the handles to the latch mechanism, and when it’s not properly engaged, turning the handle does nothing. Other issues might include a broken latch, loose screws, or even something small blocking an inner mechanism. In any case, it’s usually a matter of tightening, adjusting, or replacing a worn-out part inside the handle assembly—or calling in a professional to do it for you.
