"Mahmoud Havib is a professional locksmith in every sense of the word. He devoted a lot of time to get my home safe open and the batteries replaced. This was a very difficult job done very well."

"I never leave reviews but I felt I needed to give a review after an amazing service. He showed up quickly and did an amazing job. I left my keys inside my 2022 Ram 1500 and got locked out. He took less than 10 minutes making a key to open the truck. I would recommend his service to anyone needing a locksmith, he is very professional and extremely experienced on what he does."

"I’m rating 5 stars even though I ended up not needing the service. I met with Jake from Zack & Co Lock and Key LLC. He was knowledgeable and professional. He offered good guidance and a firm fair quote for replacing locks on our storm and entry doors. Just before ordering the new handle/lock set I was able to find our lost keys for both doors in the glovebox of my wife’s car. If I have a locksmith need in the future - I’ll definitely contact Jake at Zack & Co first."

FAQs for locksmith service projects in Pittsburgh, PA

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.
