About Locksmith
Rekeying versus full replacement
Rekeying changes the pin configuration inside an existing cylinder so old keys stop working, usually in under 20 minutes per lock. Full replacement is needed when the lock is damaged, outdated, or the wrong grade for the door. A good locksmith will recommend the cheaper option when the hardware is still solid.
Diferença entre abrir, destravar e substituir
Abrir é apenas girar a lingueta quando a chave está pelo lado de dentro. Destravar é resolver travamento mecânico sem danificar a porta, usando técnicas não destrutivas. Substituir é trocar cilindro, maçaneta ou o corpo da fechadura. Entender essa diferença ajuda a comparar orçamentos e a evitar cobranças indevidas por serviços que você não precisa.
Common signs a lock needs service
A key that turns hard, sticks, or has to be jiggled often points to worn pins or a misaligned strike plate. A loose knob or floppy latch usually means a broken setscrew inside the housing. Addressing these early prevents the lock from failing completely and forcing an emergency call.
Quando a fechadura pode ser salva sem troca
Nem toda fechadura travada precisa ser substituída. Problemas de alinhamento entre o trinco e o batente, parafusos soltos na maçaneta e acúmulo de poeira no cilindro costumam ter solução simples. Um chaveiro honesto avalia primeiro o estado dos componentes e só recomenda troca quando o cilindro está gasto ou com peças internas partidas.
What can void your lock warranty
DIY drilling, painting over a cylinder, or installing the wrong screws on a deadbolt can void the manufacturer's warranty. Most brands require ANSI-rated strike boxes and specific fastener lengths, often 3 inch wood screws into the framing stud. Ask the locksmith to keep the original packaging.
Cuidados após o atendimento
Guarde a chave reserva em local seguro, de preferência fora do imóvel, e nunca escreva o endereço na etiqueta. Teste a porta pelo menos 3 vezes com a porta aberta antes de fechar, para evitar travamento acidental. Por fim, anote a marca e o modelo da nova fechadura, além do contato do chaveiro, para facilitar manutenções futuras.
Tipos de fechaduras que o chaveiro trabalha
Um chaveiro residencial normalmente atua em fechaduras de cilindro, travas de embutir e cadeados. Modelos com chave tetra, multiponto ou com perfil europeu exigem ferramentas e peças diferentes. Antes de contratar, confirme se o profissional tem experiência com a marca e o modelo instalado na sua porta, pois nem todo chaveiro trabalha com todas as linhas.
Lockout pricing and extra fees
A basic door lockout during the day often costs a flat trip fee plus a short service charge. Late-night calls, high-security locks, or broken key extraction usually add cost. Always request the total in writing before the technician starts, including any drilling surcharge if the lock cannot be picked.
Prazos reais para cada tipo de atendimento
A troca simples de cilindro leva de 20 a 40 minutos. Abertura de porta trancada com chave dentro costuma sair entre 10 e 25 minutos, desde que a fechadura esteja em bom estado. Instalação de fechadura multiponto pode levar de 2 a 3 horas, pois exige alinhamento da haste superior e inferior da porta.
Smart lock installation basics
Installing a retrofit smart lock typically takes 30 to 60 minutes if the door is properly aligned and the bore hole fits a standard 2-1/8 inch cutout. Older doors may need a new holeset or a wood filler plate. Confirm Wi-Fi range and battery type before the appointment.
