The Mechanics of Non-Destructive Entry


When you frantically search for an emergency locksmith near me, you are looking for skill, not someone with a power drill. Unqualified handymen will immediately drill through your deadbolt, completely destroying the lock and forcing you to pay for expensive new hardware on the spot. We are experts in non-destructive entry. Our technicians understand the microscopic tolerances of pin-tumbler locks. We use delicate tension wrenches and specialized lock picks to manipulate the internal pins, artificially mimicking your key. This allows us to smoothly turn the cylinder and open your door without leaving a single scratch on your hardware.

Customer Reviews

"I locked myself out taking the trash out at 10 PM. The dispatcher was incredibly friendly, and the tech picked my front door lock in what felt like 10 seconds. Worth every single penny."

"My house key broke off in the deadbolt. They arrived fast, pulled the broken piece out with a tiny tool, and cut me a new key right in their van. Fantastic mobile locksmith service."

Vernon Hills, IL Insights: Population,
Zip Codes, Influence, and Service Areas

The land that was to become Vernon Hills, founded by Richard Theodore Freese, Ron Freese, and Jim Carswell, began with the establishment of a 200-acre (0.81 km2) farm in 1857. Use of the land remained relatively static until the 1960s, when part of it was purchased for a residential community and golf course; the development was the first use of the name "Vernon Hills." On June 16, 1958, the village officially incorporated with 123 residents and 125 houses in a single subdivision built by Quinn Hogan and Barney Loeb. During these times, the village and police department were run from a local motel until 1971 when village trustees bought two portable buildings. It saw steady but slow growth until the annexing of a plot of land near the corner of IL-60 and IL-21 in 1971, which led to the building of 1,200,000-square-foot (110,000 m2) Hawthorn Center. By 1980, the village's population had grown to almost 10,000 residents, and by 2000, it had surpassed 20,000.
