"The office manager Lori was very helpful in making scheduling arrangements and explaining what my project would cost for the lock changes I needed for our new house. They recommended what equipment to buy and where, as I wanted to upgrade to a combination lock. I called back when I had the equipment and we scheduled the project the next day. The locksmith Brett called to tell me when he would arrive. He was on time and he quickly installed the locks and hardware, and made a couple sets of keys. I was very happy with the inexpensive cost of this project, and I will use Intel Lock - Tucson Locksmith again."

"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!"

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.
