Time

Who said time is only counted in days or years.

Hope you still trading fairly.
Reminder to every locksmith is always do the best you can to make sure you provide the best way to secure anyone you provide services to and no short cut since their security lies in a bunch of keys

A gap between the door and the frame is the focal point of security. A big gap makes it easy to insert a craw bar and break the lock, this is the most common way intruders use to break through the lock bolts because the depth of locking latch is reduced
