Home Security Facts:

“Forcible entry is the most common type of home invasion, accounting for 55.7% of all incidents, followed by unlawful entry at 37.8%. Major cities with more than 250,000 persons have the highest percentage of forcible entry and unlawful entry. Burglars tend to enter homes during the daytime slightly more often than at night. Homeowners can take steps to safeguard their homes against burglars including installing alarm systems, securing window locks and deadbolts on all entry points and ensuring that it appears that one is home by setting timers, maintaining outdoor appearance and clearing all mail and newspapers from the outside of the home.”

High-security locks play a crucial role in enhancing the safety and security of your home or business. Below are a list of key benefits of installing high-security locks:

Enhanced Protection: High-security locks are designed with advanced mechanisms that resist picking, drilling, and bumping, making it significantly harder for intruders to gain unauthorized access.
Durability: These locks are often made from stronger materials and are built to withstand wear and tear, ensuring long-lasting protection compared to standard locks.
Restricted Key Control: Many high-security lock systems come with restricted keyways, meaning that unauthorized duplication of keys is nearly impossible. This adds an extra layer of security as only authorized personnel can obtain copies.
Insurance Benefits: Installing high-security locks can potentially lower your homeowner’s insurance premiums. Insurers often offer discounts for enhanced security measures, recognizing the reduced risk of theft.
Peace of Mind: Knowing that your property is equipped with high security locks provides peace of mind. It helps residents and business owners feel more secure and less anxious about potential break-ins.
Deterrent Effect: The presence of high-security locks can deter burglars. Intruders are less likely to target properties that visibly invest in advanced security measures.
Long-Term Investment: While high-security locks may have a higher upfront cost, their durability and effectiveness can save money in the long run by preventing theft and reducing the need for frequent replacements.

He installed the new lock quickly and professionally, and stuck around to make sure the new lock was working correctly. I'll definitely be using Larry Locksmith again.

They are extremely knowledgeable and are consummate professionals!! Thank you!! I attached a photo of a plate Joe custom made so I can repair a knob on a 100 year old door.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jacob came today to install a new (additional ) door lock on my apartment. Very experienced and professional. Showed me the range of options for security, and when I chose a midrange lock he didn’t try to upsell me on the more expensive ones. Installation was quick, and he even fixed a problem with the existing lock that had been installed by a previous tenant. I highly recommend Larry the Locksmith for this type of service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a good experience when changing the door locks on my car. One of the key cylinders got mucked up, so they were able to order and replace all the cylinders. Joe was able to source a part that needed replacement during the process, and kept good communication. Everyone there has been super helpful.
