"This is a great company with experienced contractors willing and able to take on projects and jobs of any size. I feel like I’ve been looking for these people my whole life! I have been working with them for a year on large and small projects and met them initially when they were willing to step in and salvage a project that a previous contractor had bungled badly. Solid attentiveness to every item from fencing to painting to re-grouting to odd jobs. They have also been willing to show me how to fix some things so I can do them myself in the future. Transparent assessments and estimates. Flexibility and ingenuity. No patronizing or rushing. Gold star responsiveness. It’s clear that the whole team works together well and have mutual respect for each other. I’ve really enjoyed working with Justin, who is straightforward and clear, clever, and efficient. No surprises with this congenial company."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Keyless locks are great for convenience, letting you unlock doors with a code or your phone so you don't need to carry keys around. They also often come with helpful features like temporary codes for guests. On the downside, they can be more costly up front and do require batteries that will eventually need replacing. If you value ease of use and additional security features, keyless locks are worth the investment.

The good news is that, yes, you can change locks yourself. Many people find it’s an easy DIY project that requires few tools and not much expense (depending on which lock you’re installing). If you have trouble with any part of an installation, you can always call a locksmith to help finish installing them.

Aside from the labor costs, several other factors can impact the cost of hiring a locksmith. If you can avoid services during off-hours, you can save on fees often charged for urgent requests. Consider additional factors such as:

  • Type of services required

  • Emergency call fees

  • Home and lock location

  • Number of locks to repair or install

  • Peak hours

  • Type of locks

It’s possible, but depends on the design of your lock. Some door locks that lack a keyhole do boast a small hole on the exterior handle or knob. This hole’s primary function is to allow water to drain out of the lock, in addition to giving homeowners an easy spot to insert lubrication. However, you can typically use a paperclip in this pinhole to unlock the door by manipulating the mechanism inside. 

The cost-effectiveness of fixing or replacing a door lock depends on the severity of the issue. Repairing a minor problem, such as loose screws or a need for lubrication, is usually cheaper than replacing the entire lock. However, replacing the lock if it is severely damaged, outdated, or lacks security features may be a better long-term investment. New locks often have improved security features, enhancing your property's safety.
