Lock maintenance tips from an expert locksmith:

#1 Lubrication is key:
Spray a lubricant into the keyhole, and be generous with the amount you use. Once you’ve done that, run the key in and out of the lock several times to make sure the lubricant is distributed evenly within.

#2 Hinge adjustments
Door hinges are put through constant use, as a result, they may loosen over time. Since they’re held in place with head screws, use a screwdriver to tighten them from time to time. If the door gets misaligned, even the bolt or latch will not be in its right place.

#3 Find a locksmith
Here’s the most important tip: find a locksmith before you end up needing one. Regular maintenance by a professional can help prolong the life of your locks. Save our number 812-422-3121 into your phone. You’ll be happy you did, when a problem arises.

Should I rekey or replace locks?

Most people aren’t aware that rekeying is as effective a solution as replacement is, with the added advantage of being way more cost-effective. The process involves replacing the internal configuration of the lock and replacing it with a new one, so that the old key to the lock is no longer able to operate it. If you’ve lost your keys, or believe that it’s been stolen, a simple rekeying procedure will do the trick, instead of discarding your locks entirely.

Yes, Bob the Locksmith can help you with that! Our expert auto locksmiths can unlock your vehicle in less than 5 minutes, without inflicting the slightest damage on your vehicle and recover the keys

Tips to protect your vehicle from theft:

Do we really want your vehicle to get stolen just because of lax security? Protect what is precious to you. Here are 5 tips to secure your vehicle:

#1 Double check if all the doors have been locked:

This may sound redundant but it is still the most important thing you need to remember. By leaving your doors unlocked, you are practically sending out an open invite to thieves to steal your vehicle. It will only take a few minutes but it will save you a lot of hassle in the future.

#2 Do not leave valuables in sight

If there are any valuables in your vehicle such as Laptops, CD's, Mobile phones etc, carry them with you if possible, otherwise put them in the glove compartment. Having them in plain view will only attract unwanted attention.

#3 Vehicle alarm:

Car alarms alert you as and when there is someone trying to break into your vehicle. Although it cannot protect the vehicle in itself or the valuables in it, a thief will think twice before targeting a vehicle that he knows has an alarm built into it.

#4 Vehicle Immobilizer:

A vehicle immobilizer is an electronic device that prevents the car from being started by someone who doesn't have a proper key. Though this will not stop the car from being broken into, it will however prevent the car from being stolen.

#5 Secure Parking:
If you have a garage at home it is advisable to park your vehicle in it rather than out on the street. If you are parking on the road when you are out, park it in a street that is well lit where there are a lot of people. If you are able to park it in an area with CCTV cameras, that is even better.

Isn’t rekeying and replacing the locks the same?
While most people think they are the same, they aren’t. Replacing the locks means acquiring a completely new hardware and you get a completely new lock. This can be a time consuming and an expensive process. You may consider replacing your locks if they are small in number but, if there are many locks and if they are of a top-notch model then opt for rekeying instead. In rekeying, you don’t cha
nge your locks. Instead, a locksmith uses the existing hardware to replace the internal configuration so that a new key opens the lock. The expenses don’t go overboard and the time consumed is even less.
If you live in Evansville, get in touch for affordable rekeying solutions as well as a wide range of other locksmith services. You can check out our complete range of services at Bobthelocksmith.net

5 tips to keeping your keys safe:

Keys are the physical embodiment of the passcode to your door. Leave them out, and you’ll probably end up risking the security of your property. If you’re careless with them, anyone can make a copy or steal them to gain access into your property. Keep them safe, and you’ll keep your property safe. Here are a few tips that will help you keep your keys from falling into the wrong hands:

#1: Consider using a wireless key finder:
A wireless key finder is a compact device that can be attached to your key chain and can send out a tracking signal that could be detected by your smartphone.

#2: Use a bulky keychain
If you’re not willing to spend on a wireless key finder, use the conventional key chain. However, ensure that it is bulky and easy to spot so you could easily retrieve the key bunch, if you drop it.

#3: Never leave them unattended
Would you leave a framed picture of your social security number for everyone to see? No, then why should keys be any different? Always carry them with you, wherever you go.

#4: Leave an extra set with someone you trust:
Entrust a neighbor or a close friend with a set of keys. In case you lose track of your keys, you’ll always have a back up set, so that you don’t lose access entirely.

#5: Know a locksmith around you
If you lose your keys or if they’re stolen, you need to get in touch with a locksmith right away. Hiring a random locksmith without proper credentials is a strict no-no. Choose a locksmith beforehand so you have someone reliable to fall back on during critical situations.

Lock maintenance tip: - Lubricate your locks annually. Experts do not recommend using petroleum-based products or Graphite lubricants, Teflon and other dry lubricants are good choices. Spray a small amount into the keyway and push the key in and out of the lock several times. A more thorough lubrication would involve dismantling the lock, which could be done by a professional.
