Finding Stronger Safes

After I started investing in gold instead of stocks and bonds, I realized that my cheap house safe was just not going to do the trick. I wanted to protect the hundreds of thousands of dollars that I had in gold, so I started shopping around for stronger, more durable safes. I was able to find a company that offered incredible locks and safes for reasonable prices, so I reached out to them for help. They were amazing to work with, and they even came out to my house to help me to fit the area for size. This blog is all about shopping for a better safe.

When many people see a locksmith business, they associate them with being a place where they can get a key copied or programmed at a good price. Locksmiths offer a wide range of services, though, that extend far beyond making you a new key for your home.

#1 Help with Lockouts

One of the primary jobs of many locksmith companies is to help with lockouts. They can get you back into your vehicle without causing any damage to your vehicle. They can get you back into your home when you lock yourself out. They can help you open a safe that will not open. They can help open your business if your access control system fails.

A locksmith can generally drive you to your location and get you back into your home or property in under an hour without damaging the lock. If the lock is damaged, they can fix it right away for you.

#2 Installing New Locks

When you need a new lock installed, call your local locksmith. They can install new residential and commercial locks on doors and windows. They can install a new lock on your safe.

When it comes to what types of locks they can install, they can install a basic turn-key lock, a deadbolt lock, an access control system, or a wireless lock. They can add whatever kind of lock you need to add to your home or business.

#3 Create New Keys

Creating a new key these days is not as simple as just copying your key and making a new metal key. If you need to make a copy of a car key though, the key can't just be copied, it needs to be programmed. Most modern car keys have a chip inside of them that has to be programmed using special equipment in order for the space key to actually work. Locksmiths offer programming keys services that match your specific vehicle. 

#3 Rekeying Locks

If you like the locks that you have on your home, but you need to change the access to your home, rekeying is the way to go. A locksmith can rekey the locks on your home, which changes the key pattern the locks will accept. If you moved into a new house or if you had a roommate or partner move out who you don't want to access the property anymore this is a good way to secure your property.

#4 Install Security Cameras

Next, locksmiths are home security experts. They can help install a wireless or hardwire security camera system. They can set-up a watch station for your wireless feed so you have somewhere to watch the camera feed in your home or your business. They can integrate your security cameras with a security system or with an access control system for your doors.

Locksmiths can do more than just copy your keys. They can add new locks to your home or business, help you when you get locked out, rekey old locks, and even set-up security cameras and security systems for you. Talk with a locksmith company like Roland Park Lock And Key about programming keys, getting you into your property, or installing security.
