Can anyone recommend a trustworthy and reasonably priced locksmith to install new locks and hardware on my residential home? I googled and didn't find a whole lot of choices nor reviews. Thanks.

Do you just need new deadbolts and entry-locks? Unique key-sets for each lock? Or one key-pattern to match all entry-locks? Will these locks be replacing pre-existing locks? Or will they require drilling sand installation into new doors?

Just go read 2concerned's thread entitled "Radio Personality Sharon Rae Pettigrew Using This Forum For Personal Attacks", and I think that you'll begin to understand what happened to those days.

This should help...

Thanks for the tip, I was about to look for the same thing later today

I've been happy with Suburban Safe & Lock. They're in the Twinbrook Shopping Center, but I think they go pretty much all over Nova.

Baldinos in Alexandria off Duke Street is very good.

So much helpful advice... sheesh.

If you are handy enough to pull off the handles and deadbolts, you can put them in a bag and take them to Home Depot and they'll rekey them for you at a very low cost ($5 per, I think). The Home Depot at Fairfax Circle, while pretty much a disaster in all other respects, has a young guy who works in the tools dept. who is great with locks.

If you are anywhere near Fairfax City, you can go to Arties Locksmith (no, not the food joint at the circle). They know what they are doing and, while a little more pricey than Home Depot, can come onsite and take care of everything for you.
