Residential Locksmith FAQ
Can I use the same key for all my locks?
Do you charge a fee to come out for locksmith service at my home?
Yes, we charge a service fee to cover the cost of our mobile locksmith coming to your location. This service call fee varies depending on the distance, the time of day, and the type of service you require. The fee helps cover insurance, gas, truck maintenance, and travel time.
How long does it take to install a new lock?
Typically, it takes about 15-30 minutes to an hour to install a new lock, although this can vary based on the specifics of the lock and whether or not the door is fully prepped for the new lock.
Can I purchase a lock set that is keyed alike?
Yes, we can provide you with lock sets that are keyed alike. This can greatly simplify access to different parts of your home.
Are you a insured locksmith in Philadelphia?
Absolutely. Nonstop Locksmith 24/7 has the proper business license and insurance in Philadelphia. As a professional company, we make sure we strictly adhere to all regulations to provide our customers with the highest level of professional service.
Are all locks able to be picked?
While many standard locks such as Schlage and Kwikset can be picked, there are way to make them more pick resistant by using different pin styles, smart key technology, and some high-security locks are in fact designed to resist picking. However, a professional locksmith has other methods of opening a lock if picking is not possible.
Can a broken lock be repaired or replaced?
Yes, a broken lock can typically be either repaired or replaced, depending on the severity of the damage and the specific type of lock. If it’s broken beyond repair, we’ll let you know. Our goal is to always try to repair rather than replace to save you money.
What grade of door lock is the most secure for my home?
We usually recommend Grade 2 locks for the best home security. These are the second highest grade locks as rated by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), only surpassed by Grade 1 locks which are typically reserved for commercial applications. Grade 3 locks are also acceptable, it all depends on your level of comfort and budget.
Is it possible to open a door lock with a swipe of a credit card?
This method, often seen in movies and television shows, only works on a certain type of lock and is generally not effective on modern locks that have been installed properly, locks with a dead latch feature, or deadbolts. We strongly discourage trying this as it can damage the lock and your card. Instead, we prefer to pick the lock.
Which high-security locks do you recommend?
At Nonstop Locksmith 24/7, we always recommend upgrading to high-security locks. We’re able to supply and install Mul-T-Lock and Medeco high-security locks. They’re stronger, pick-resistant, bump-resistant, drill-resistant, and key copies must be done through us for added protection and key control.
