GGD was founded as a local, family-owned business in 1988 by Peter Giglio, Sr. as a solo Technician out of his home. We grew. Providing superior customer service with values of Honesty & Integrity, our dedicated, experienced crews began additional service for Fairfax County homes in 1991. As our reputation for dependability spread, our 10 trucks & 15 employees outgrew the original Gaithersburg location in 2019 as we moved to a more spacious Rockville location. Peter’s son, Pete Giglio, Jr., succeeding his Dad, and long-time Operations Manager, Ryan Smart continue today to guide Gaithersburg & Fairfax Garage Door to satisfy the needs of DMV homeowners.

"Everything went fantastic Anthony was my technician, he was courteous, performed the job efficiently, did a great cleanup job of any materials in my garage. Explained exactly what was done and the future work that I needed to be done! I requested him to do the follow up work! The company itself is also great. They did follow ups via text and email; responded to everything quickly and were able to accommodate my schedule. I will continue to use them as a company."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Smart locks offer around the same level of safety as conventional locks with keys. The best way to secure your door locks is to combine routine locking mechanisms with other home safety features, like lighting, motion sensors, security cameras, and window and door sensors. 

Smart locks have the upper hand when it comes to convenience—you won't have to worry about your key not turning in the lock or fumbling around in your bag for your keys—but beyond that, any door with deadbolts will offer a similar degree of security.

You may be able to get a broken key out of a lock by yourself, depending on the situation. If a portion of the key is still protruding from your lock, try lubricating the keyway and using pliers or even a bobby pin to pull the key out of the hole. If you have jigsaw blades handy, you can also try using those to grab onto the stuck key and pull it out. 

But, if neither option works or you can’t reach the key, your only option is to call a locksmith for help. 

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.

Begin by checking the power source, typically a battery or wired connection. Ensure the battery is installed correctly, has sufficient charge, and isn't corroded. If it's a wired lock, examine the electrical connections to confirm they are secure and free from damage. Additionally, inspect the lock's programming or settings. Confirm that user codes or access credentials are programmed correctly and that any remote control devices are paired and functional.

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.
