Locksmith?
I know one of the first things you should do when you move into your new home is change all the existing locks.
Does anyone have a locksmith they recommend?!?!
Thanks!

We did it all ourselfs. Went to home depot, brought the hardware and swapped it out. Very easy depending on the type of door you have (standard)

Re: Locksmith?
To swap out an existing deadbolt should only take about 5-10 minutes, and all you need is a screwdriver. Same goes for the knobs. I've swapped dozens of knobs, deadbolts, and lever-style. All of them were extremely simple.
You can get the exterior locks to match, so you only need one key for all locks. I have 8 locks that all use the same key. Makes life much easier.
