Avoid Common Lock Issues

Tips to Prevent Future Lock Problems at Home

While we’re always here when you need us, a few simple habits can help prevent future lock problems.

Replace worn keys or duplicates that stick
If your key is bent, chipped, or just not turning like it used to, it’s time to replace it. Using a damaged or poorly cut duplicate can wear out the lock’s internal pins, making it harder to turn—or even causing a key to break off inside.
Don’t ignore sticking or misaligned locks
A lock that sticks, catches, or doesn't fully engage is more than just annoying—it’s a warning sign. It could mean the internal mechanism is wearing down or the door has shifted slightly in the frame. Catching and fixing these small problems early can prevent bigger headaches later.
Avoid hiding spare keys outdoors
It might seem convenient to leave a spare key under the mat or in a fake rock, but that’s the first place a burglar will look. Instead, consider upgrading to a keypad or smart lock system, which allows you to create custom entry codes for family, guests, or service providers.
Schedule a professional inspection
One of the most important things you can do after moving is to rekey or inspect every lock in the home. You never know how many copies of your keys might still be out there—from previous owners, contractors, or real estate agents.

Extremely professional, prompt and efficient with fair pricing for their service. It was my first time having to call a locksmith but Michael allayed any doubts or hesitation with his friendly and courteous demeanor. Would absolutely use again, thank you M&H.

So the battery in my lock is dead, I yelped and found this highly rated locksmith, M&H. called and got someone on the phone right away. Prompt and courteous service. Most importantly Mike opened my smart lock in like 5 min. Highly recommended. I would recommend to anyone.
Yelp Reviews

Michael came out 25 minutes after I called him. Opened the door in less than 5 minutes!! Very professional and courteous. And his hours are great for people who work 9-5 jobs. One of the few places that work until 11pm and doesn’t charge you overtime hours. Would recommend and use him again!!

Thankful for flexibility and great customer service. My child locked himself in a bedroom and unable to reach my landlord I made a quick appointment for someone to come help within a half hour. In the meantime my landlord was able to come open the door with a spare key and I was able to cancel the emergency appointment no problem.
