Benefits of Hiring a Locksmith Instead of DIY
You might feel tempted to use the DIY method when it comes to changing a lock for your new home or simply try to repair one which broke.
However, this is definitely not a good idea. Only a professional locksmith can guarantee the proper installation. If you decide to do it yourself, you may not install it the right way, which may lead to security issues.
Hiring a locksmith is the best decision you can make whenever you need help with lock installations or fixing.
Here are the top reasons why you should hire a locksmith instead of DIY.
1. Locksmiths Know What They’re Doing. Professional locksmith companies will always make sure their employees are well-trained and can install any lock properly. Not only do I provide excellent craftsmanship, but I give a12-month manufacturer’s warranty on all parts and 90 days guarantee on all workmanship.
Chances are you will risk damaging the entire system when trying to change a lock because you don’t have the necessary experience and skills locksmiths have.
I also provide multiple services, such as lockouts, lock repairs, lock repairs, smart locks, key cutting, window boarding, security surveys and alarms. Hiring a locksmith means you will have a multi-talented handyman who can fix many areas of your home.
2. Locksmiths Have the Right Equipment Installing or changing locks is not as easy as it may seem. You are going to need the appropriate tools to do this, and of course, the knowledge on how to use them.
There are specific tools which are used for certain locks, so it’s best not to use whatever you have in your toolbox and let a professional take care of this. Having the right tools will ensure the fact that the door and the system won’t be damaged.
3. Locksmith Can Provide Valuable Advice. Hiring a locksmith has its perks.
If someone calls me because their lock broke or malfunctioned, then I will do a security survey (if the client wants) to make sure the home and the property are secure.
I also provide advice which will ensure your property will not become a potential target for burglars in the future and most importantly even if you installed a lock yourself, it won’t make your home vulnerable.
At the same time, I can give you the best advice on choosing the right lock for you depending on your budget.
4. Locksmiths Have Flexible Schedule. Most locksmith companies provide extremely fast service and have a lot of experts ready to go if they receive a call from someone.
I am on-call 24 hours a day for all types of locksmith work. So whether it’s day or late at night, you can give us a call and we’ll aim to get to you within 30 minutes.
Why am so fast, you’re asking? Because I live in the locality I’m serving and so I can arrive at your home as soon as possible.
