14. Repairing or changing locks

Lock repair can involve everything from simply lubricating the parts to actually rekeying the lock, which can get tricky if it’s a complicated mechanism. In many cases, you can easily repair or even change your own locks, and there are tons of how-to videos online that can help. But if you’re not willing to do your homework on different lock systems, and if you want to make sure you’re getting maximum security and protection, call a locksmith. \

Recommendation: Experienced DIYers and professionals only.
