"We needed someone to fix a broken lock on our front porch, an important wrought iron security door. Because we've always had fantastic experience with Home Advisor in the past, we again chose a professional locksmith thru the service. Within 20 minutes of the call, Mr. Gutierrez was at our door. This young man was prompt, polite, courteous, personable, professional, and was at our door exactly when he told us, despite the fact that it was dark outside at 7:00 p.m. I highly recommend using HomeAdvisor and Mr. Gutierrez especially. Great job and thank you!"

"I am not so pleased with them, but what they did was fine. It wasn’t their people we had to hire. The safe weighed 800 pounds and so we had to pay somebody to bring it in. They were not employed by Roadrunner, but they were contracted through them. Their literature from what they said about what was under warranty was a little bit different than what they wanted to say later. I think it was the manufacturer and not necessarily the dealer of the product. It’s not that we had a problem with it. The warranty didn’t mention if we had to service it once a year or not, but it was on their website. We had to clear that up. I felt that the price was comparable. Their punctuality was okay. We would go back to them because it’s an actual retail store. We go there to buy things like locks and stuff for our house, but they don’t install it."

FAQs for locksmith service projects in Tucson, AZ

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.
