Homes in Worcester: what pros run into
Freezing nights in winter can crack exposed pipes and outdoor spigots. Wastewater goes to the Upper Blackstone Clean Water treatment plant.
The state's Mass Save program offers rebates and no-cost home energy assessments. Many older doors have been rehung or painted over the years, so a lock that sticks may need the door adjusted, not just the cylinder.
Frozen locks happen in deep cold. A lock de-icer works better than forcing the key. Worcester built more than 6,000 triple-deckers between about 1880 and 1930.

Ask the locksmith for ID, the company name and a written price before any work begins. Ask the locksmith for identification and a written estimate before work begins. Keep any receipt that lists the work done and the parts used, in case a lock or key gives trouble later.
A little prep helps
If you are locked out somewhere unsafe, say so when you call.
Quick answers
What is a high-security lock?
It is a lock built to resist picking, bumping and drilling, often with keys that can only be copied with proof of ownership. It costs more but can make sense for exterior doors.
Can a locksmith make keys for a lock with no key at all?
Usually, yes. For many home locks, a locksmith can decode the cylinder or rekey it to a new key on site, so you do not need the original.
Will a locksmith need proof I live here?
Usually, yes. Expect to show ID or other proof of residence. This protects you too, since it keeps a stranger from talking a locksmith into opening your door.
