"Jim was awesome and he called within one minute of my request from Angi. His technician ( Matt ) came out to my property exactly when Jim said he was. Matt was fantastic!! Super helpful and was very knowledgeable and communicative. Both of these guys made this experience wonderful. I’m an out of state investor and had a horrible experience with a general contractor and these guys came through to change the locks out for me. I will definitely use them again and I already let my out of state investor buddies know about them."

"The guy arrived on time ready to do the job. He was very efficient went over with me. The problems that I was having with my door and step-by-step. Show me what he needed to do to fix the power he replaced the parts that needed to be replaced and all of this did not take no more than an hour and a half. I am very happy with his work and I will be calling them out again for future services."

"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. "

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 1⅜ 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. 

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.
