Why should you have your residential and commercial lock installation and lock repair done by a professional locksmith? Would this not turn out to be more expensive? Why not opt for the services of the neighbourhood handyman instead? Surely he can do the job just as well, couldn't he? I'm sorry to tell you that you will be putting your residential or commercial space at risk if you rely on a handyman for your lock installation and lock repair. Yes, he may be able to install a simple padlock or a deadbolt but that could be as far as he can go. Those simple old fashioned locks may no longer be enough to prevent a burglary or unauthorized entry to your area, though. You need more sophisticated security hardware nowadays but only a professional locksmith will be capable of proper lock installation and lock repair for such high security locks.
On the other hand, you still have to be very careful in choosing your professional locksmith. You may have already heard of the way some shady locksmith companies have scammed their customers in several cities in the United States. This should serve as a warning to everyone to make sure that the professional locksmith you do business with actually holds current and legitimate accreditation from your local Better Business Bureau. Your cost cutting efforts will just backfire on you if you are swindled by the wrong locksmith.
For residential spaces, professional locksmith companies can do lock installation and lock repair for sophisticated high security locks, special knobs, key cylinders, levers, deadbolts, locks for sliding glass doors, door viewers, safes, secure mailboxes and surveillance cameras.
There are times when you have to immediately change your locks for the security of your residence. Perhaps you are moving into a unit that has had a previous tenant. Or maybe you have a member of the household staff who suddenly leaves with copies of your keys. You should waste no time in calling in a professional locksmith in such cases. They can quickly change all your locks or they can offer you the option of re-keying instead. This is much cheaper because they only have to change the lock pins and wafer tumblers of your existing locks and this will completely disable all the old keys. Your professional locksmith can then cut new keys for you.
When you change locks, another option that most professional locksmith recommend is the use of restricted keys like Medeco. These offer better security because they cannot be reproduced without your authorization.
For residential spaces, professional locksmith companies can do lock installation and lock repair for access control systems, master key systems, buzzer entry systems, keyless entry systems, panic and emergency exit devices, rear door security bars, door closers, safes, lockboxes, file cabinet locks, desk locks and secure key cabinets.
Outside your home or office, you may also need to call for a professional locksmith to unlock your car door the right way during those unfortunate times when you either lose your automotive keys or leave them in the vehicle by chance. A handyman can actually damage your car door if you ask him to do this for you. Keep in mind that repairing a damaged car door will be far more expensive than calling for a professional locksmith.
