"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."

"Nice kid. Not sure that he’s a true locksmith but he is learning!! He left all of his mess from drilling holes in my door. That’s why I called him a nice kid. The work seems to be fine but he showed up in a random unmarked car, didn’t appear neat or professional. I think he will figure it out. He has the skills."

"Dave Smith was AWESOME! Very knowledgeable and patient. We added new items to our order at the 12th hour and he came back twice to make sure that everything was completed as we desired. We also had Alarm Protection Group secure our office. Dave Smith and Co. make the process very easy-Highly recommended."

"We have been using Mike & Home Remedies as our contractor/handyman for close to ten years. Time and again Mike has been the consummate professional and his works shows. The quality is tremendous and Mike (quite rightly) takes pride in his craft. We have had Mike do several large projects in our home and he just completed redoing our basement bathroom as we are having an elderly family member move in. We will continue to call on him for all and every future work. We cannot recommend him strongly enough."

"Jim the Handyman is fantastic! We recently had several small repairs done (we waited to bundle them into one job to make it easier for everyone). The crew they sent out did all of them in less time than I expected, and for less than half of what I expected to pay. The work was top notch (something we've seen in the other things they've done for us) and we are very pleased. In fact, I have to call them to schedule some other work. Jim the Handyman should be your go-to provider for anything you need done."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Many local hardware stores have the equipment to copy basic keys at a low cost. Some locations may have freestanding machines where you can pick out a blank and insert it and your original key into the duplicating machine.

Changing door locks is a task that most homeowners can accomplish on their own. Standard door knobs are quite straightforward, and even more advanced locks, like electronic or smart locks, generally come with instructions. That said, the process can be time-consuming, especially if you plan to replace multiple locks around the house. It’s also a task that you want to complete correctly, considering that it affects the security of your house. That’s why hiring a pro is often best when changing your door locks.

Yes, with better technology now available, it’s possible to add a smart lock on your sliding glass door. Smart locks can be easy for almost everyone in the family to operate and can connect to other safety features in the home, like smart lights. Plus, they’re harder for would-be criminals to pick. However, keep in mind that smart locks can potentially be hacked, and some completely rely on phones or Wi-Fi, which can be an issue if the power goes out.

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.

If you also have a standard door leading to your garage, install a robust deadbolt lock and reinforce the frame with security plates. Then, secure any windows with shatterproof glass or film to deter break-ins. Consider a smart garage door opener for your car entrance, enabling remote monitoring and control through your smartphone. Motion-activated lighting around the garage to deter intruders is a great way to amplify these security efforts. Lastly, educate your family on security practices, such as keeping the garage entrances closed and locked.
