"After calling several companies that said they would be several hours from the call, this company was able to be there quicker than the others. My daughter had locked herself out of the house and needed to get back in and we were not around to help her so we called this locksmith. He did the job quickly and my daughter was able to get on with her day. Thanks for being honest, quick, and reliable.

"The service was performed on my glass sliding door and the installation required a tricky adjustment that was something an experienced locksmith would know how to perform. The price was fair and I would recommend Mr. Najib for any locksmith services. Thank you sincerely."

"The locksmith technician Larry was right on time and did the required work within an hour. He is a pro at what he does and you could tell from his work ethos. Plus the Angie's List discount coupon was honored as well.

"I called Annandale Lock and Key Service to do lock-work at my rental property after my tenant?s key was stolen along with her wallet, which had items that ID?d her address.  It was imperative that the lock be re-keyed as soon as possible to prevent a possible burglary.
Chris found time to come the very day I called, and arrived on time.  He began work and soon discovered that the previous owner of my condo had damaged the lock.  Re-keying became a daunting process, requiring (I?m told by my tenant) approximately an hour and a half.    It was clear Chris fully understood how important it was to have the lock working with new keys before he left that evening.   Ultimately, his doggedness paid off, and he was successful.   Sorry ? can?t explain the issues involved, beyond a broken pin, but perhaps the age of the building and lock was a factor (40 yrs. old?).   At any rate, I felt very fortunate to get the job done with a charge for only a service call and a cylinder replacement.   Chris supplied new keys at no charge, and gave me my 10 % senior discount, which I much appreciated.  
I would definitely use Chris?s services again and will happily recommend him to others.

"I picked Pop-A-Lock from Angie's List as they had high ratings and I'm glad I did. They were all very professional. The technician, Emanuel, did his best to fix the lock before informing us that it needed to be replaced. He stopped over a couple of times to try different methods of fixing the lock before noticing that a spring was missing and the lock mechanism had finally worn out. The replacement part was it's own price so I will not hold that price against the company. I don't have much experience with locksmiths and their pricing but I thought it was a fair price for the work that was required. I'm happy to have worked with Pop-A-Lock and would recommend them to anyone should they need their services."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

One of the best tools for removing a stripped bolt is a handy pair of locking pliers. Locking pliers can usually grip onto screws with a broken, rounded, or stripped head and lock in place so that you can loosen even the most stubborn bolt that would otherwise remain hopelessly jammed.

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.

There is a reason many commercial garages and storage facilities have roller garage doors. They stand out as one of the most secure options due to their unique design. The compact installation and absence of visible leverage points on the sturdy aluminum curtain make them a formidable obstacle for potential intruders. 

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.

Most door knobs can be removed with a Phillips or flathead screwdriver. If you don’t have either of those available, a paper clip or small pin can sometimes work, but the extra effort may not be worth a quick trip to the hardware store.
