A & H Lock and Keys

01/19/2025

My dad gave me this advice a long time ago when I moved into my first apartment. He even came out and changed the screws for me as soon as I moved in. Someone else recently posted about it on the tedooo app and I thought I would share!
A good home security tip that you may have never thought about.... Most contractors install the plates with the supplied screws which are only a half inch long and come out with one kick by a burglar. He installed 4 inch screws in their place that go through the door frame and into the framing of the house. They can kick for a long time before they get tired! You can see in the picture the screw in his hand is the screw supplied with the door hardware. Making a burglar make a bunch of noise and be foiled in their initial plan can not only give you time to arm yourself but they will most likely move on to an easier target.

If your locks freeze up ...
Sanitize your key

Hand sanitizers have a high alcohol content, which not only prevents it from freezing, but enables it to thaw ice as well. Sq**rt a little bit of the gel on your key, make sure it covers both sides well, and it should unlock your stuck door lock after a few turns.


L**e up your key

Petroleum jelly is an effective lubricant that will enable you to turn the key in the lock easily. This may take a bit longer to do than if you use hand sanitizer, but it will work most of the time. Simply coat your key lightly with a small dab of petroleum jelly and turn it in the lock gently in both directions.


Heat up your key

Simply heating up your key with a lighter could be enough to unstick a stuck lock. If the lock is completely frozen, you may have to heat your key more than once. As with all other methods, don’t rush it, and turn the key in both directions slowly. You should be able to get the ice melted in a few minutes.


Keep de-icing spray handy

Commercially-available de-icing spray is even more effective than the solutions mentioned above. Of course, having it tucked away in the glove compartment of a frozen car wouldn’t do you much good, so make sure to have an extra bottle handy at home or in your office desk as well.


Breath in…and out

In the worst-case scenario wherein, you don’t have any of the solutions mentioned above, your breath could be all you need to thaw out your car door lock. Simply cup your hands around the lock and blow into it for a few minutes. It may be necessary to do this more than once, but your lock should thaw after a while.

As long as there are people, there will be lock-outs. It’s the cars and car-opening tools that change.
