Secure your home before you travel

Locksmith Sun City West insists that empty homes are easier targets and that's why you must check the entire lock system of your home before you leave for a trip. Lock repair is an excellent solution to make sure of the efficiency of all doors and windows but if the locks are old or damaged in any way don't think about it twice, have these locks replaced immediately.

Deal with auto lockout

It is not unnatural for the transponder key to lose communication with the immobilizer and, in this case, you will be locked out of your own car. Sometimes, it will last for only a few minutes, so let it rest for a while before you try opening the car door locks again. In any other case, trying disconnecting the battery and connect it again in a few minutes.

Try silicone spray for locks

Sometimes, your locks can’t be opened even if the right keys are used. You might think something is broken inside and key repair is essential. In fact, you only need a silicon spray. It could soften the locks or remove clogged items.

Don't leave keys in the lock

It's not a good idea leaving the keys in the lock. They put extra burden on the lock, which might get ruined faster. It won't be recommended also when there are small kids in the house because they can lock themselves in or find their way out.
