"Bertram (Thaen) completed several projects for us. The following are just a few of those projects: drywall and underlayment repair, painting, toilet removal and installation, door handle replacement, bidet installation, shut off valve replacement in bathrooms and kitchen. Thaen proved to be trustworthy, knowledgeable, and capable of figuring out viable solutions to challenging problems. I highly recommend Dunn Rite Handyman Services."

"I would like to recognize employee Doug A at SafeStreet/ADT. We’ve had an old security system sitting in our house for over 15 years without service or functionality. He took the time to explain the differences between how the old systems work and how the new systems work. He was patient with us, and we are happy customers."

"Rich Flanagan is simply the best handyman I could have asked for. He installed cabinets and built a desk for my new office, and his work exceeded all my expectations. Rich was incredibly communicative throughout the entire project, making sure I was informed and comfortable with every decision. He showed great respect for my property and diligently cleaned up all his messes, leaving my space spotless. What truly sets Rich apart is his creativity and flexibility. He brought fantastic ideas to the table and was always open to making adjustments based on my preferences. I trust his opinion and expertise without hesitation. Rich takes immense pride in his work, and it shows in the quality and solidity of everything he does. I couldn't be happier with the results, and I highly recommend Rich Flanagan for any handyman needs!"

"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

It is best to use a dry lubricant, such as a Teflon-based option, for door locks. Unlike popular oil-based lubricants, dry lubricants leave a non-stick, water-repellent coating that does not attract dust, dirt, and other debris. Using an oil-based lubricant can cause these particles to build up inside the lock, making it difficult to operate or even damaging the internal mechanism. You can find dry lubricants, some of which are made specifically for locks, at most hardware stores.

Door locks should be changed roughly every seven years. The average lifespan of a door lock is seven to 10 years, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and change them early, especially if they are showing signs of wear and tear. Examples of deterioration include visible rust and difficulty opening or closing the door. Some locks can work safely beyond 10 years, but it depends on how often they are used and whether they are exposed to damaging environmental conditions like precipitation or extreme temperatures.

The easiest way to pick a lock is by using a titanium rake pick. This type of lock pick comes in a variety of shapes used to simulate different key configurations but generally has a tip with a bent design. Rake picks are the most beginner-friendly lockpicks and the simplest to learn how to use.

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.

It depends on what type of keyless entry it is and if the locksmith has the proper tools to remove a keypad entry lock since some are more advanced than others. However, locksmiths can typically work around keyless entries to vehicles, so it depends on what type of keyless entry system needs opening.
