If you have just moved into a new place, you should call a locksmith<\/i> and have them change the locks right away.

If you have a key that says “do not duplicate” on it, you can<\/b> still go to a locksmith<\/i> and have them make<\/i> you copies. Many people offer these keys because it encourages you to pay them to get duplicates. Most locksmiths<\/b> won’t think twice before making you a spare.<\/p>\n

While it is important to understand how much the job will<\/i> cost, it is also important to be aware of any other fees involved in the process. For example, some locksmiths<\/b> charge extra for emergency service. Others will<\/i> tack on a fee if they have to drive a certain distance. Question the locksmith<\/i> about this so that you understand how much you will<\/i> be charged.<\/p>\n

Many locksmiths<\/b> will<\/i> quote you a price over the phone. If they get to your location and change their mind, do not continue working with them. They are simply trying to take advantage of the situation, and you should be wary. There are a number of locksmiths<\/b> in any given area, so do not feel trapped into using someone that you aren’t comfortable with.<\/p>\n

If you get locked out of your vehicle, make<\/i> sure that the locksmith<\/i> doesn’t block your car in when he gets there. Unscrupulous people will<\/i> do this in order to get more money from you. Never pay them anything. The best thing to do would be to take note of their license plate and call the police.<\/p>\n

Most locksmiths<\/b> are aware of how to pick a lock and help you gain access to your home. If you are told that the entire lock needs to be replaced, you should see this as a warning sign. This costs significantly more than picking the lock, which is the reason some locksmiths<\/b> will<\/i> say it is necessary.<\/p>\n

Only hire a locksmith<\/i> that is bonded and has insurance. If he or she messes up on the job, you want to make<\/i> sure you are protected and that you will<\/i> be reimbursed for the damages. Knowing that the company has taken this type of precaution should give you peace of mind as the work on your property begins.<\/p>\n
