"This is the man/company you want as a locksmith. I called Joe expecting to schedule within 2 weeks. He happened to have finished a job and said he could do the job immediately. He operates from a work van. Joe replaced my steel entry door lockset with a new lockset I had purchased. He then rekeyed another entry door lockset and a storm door lock. He even advised me on where to go to get a bubble gum machine rekeyed. Pleasant manner. Willingness to complete additional projects. Kept me informed of any problems which he solved. Had me approve of work completed before billing. Reasonable price. Would definitely refer to others. "

"I researched to find the best locksmith in the business to replace two door locks, with the locksmith furnishing the new locks. That locksmith is A-Tri-County-Lock. The work was efficient, excellent, and at a reasonable price."

"We hired Guardian to install our security system at our Washington, DC, business. The service and quality of the work was horrible. We had cameras and an alarm system installed; it was a relatively large system. They outsource most of the work to various vendors. They could not manage their vendors; what was supposed to take a week took two months. The sales rep did not return calls, and you could never get anyone in management on the phone. Random people would show up at unannounced times. The few things that an actual Guardian employee did were they made a huge mess of our newly remodeled office and were rude to our staff. We have offices in five markets across the US and have high security at each; we have never had such a poor experience."

"He started the job but won't come back to finished and repair the molding on my sliding door. He won't back his work and we don't know what else to do other than to right a review."

FAQs for locksmith service projects in Cleveland, OH

The installation timeframe varies based on door preparation and lock complexity. For doors already prepared with appropriate holes, installation might take 15 to 30 minutes. New installations requiring drilling take one to two hours. First-time DIY installers should allocate additional time to ensure proper alignment and function. Professional locksmiths complete standard installations efficiently due to their specialized tools and experience.

Most residential doors can accommodate deadbolts, but certain door types present challenges. Solid wood and fiberglass doors accept standard deadbolt hardware, while metal doors require specialized drilling equipment. Hollow-core interior doors lack the structural integrity to properly support deadbolts without additional reinforcement. Doors should be at least 1โ…œ inches thick to properly house standard deadbolt mechanisms.

Door warranties remain valid when deadbolts are installed according to the manufacturer's guidelines. However, improper installation that damages the door structure might affect warranty coverage.ย 

Before modifying any door under warranty, review the documentation for specific limitations or requirements regarding hardware installation. Some manufacturers provide templates or guidelines for acceptable lock placement to maintain warranty protection.

Rekeying offers a more economical alternative to complete replacement when you need to change access, but the lock mechanism remains in good condition. This process involves reconfiguring the internal pins to work with a new key while retaining the existing hardware. For homeowners with multiple locks, rekeying provides the convenience of using a single key for all entry points while maintaining security.
