Installing Deadbolt Locks

Installing a deadbolt lock costs $40 to $75 plus the cost of the deadbolt, depending on its type:

Cylindrical deadbolts cost $50–$70

Cylindrical lever locks cost: $60–$70

Mortise locksets cost: $125–$175

Installing Electronic Locks

Most electronic systems use a combination of keypads, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and biometrics. Some systems also interact with smart home hubs. While a single keypad lock might run as little as $50, installing a smart home electronic lock can cost anywhere from $100 to $500—depending on the type of lock system installed—and go up to $2,000+ for more high-tech systems.

The price for each type of electronic lock:

Keypad: $50–$300

Bluetooth: $60–$200

Biometric: $150–$500

Wi-Fi: $250–$450

Unlocking a Car

A locksmith typically charges $60 to $85 to open your car door or trunk, and the cost can go up to $150 depending on how far they have to travel. Expect to pay double for after-hours services.

Replacing a Car Door Lock

In most cases, the cost to change a standard door lock runs from $50 to $200. But if you need to replace the keypad, you might spend an additional $200 to $400.

Rekeying a Car

Rekeying a car door runs from $30 to $50 per door. Expect to pay an additional trip fee plus the cost of the setup keys, which can easily double the price. Rekeying a car ignition runs between $50 to $150, depending on the make of the car.

Making a Car Key

Making a standard car key can run anywhere from $4 to $10. If you need a transponder key, you’ll pay up to $400 and may need to order them from the dealership if a locksmith can’t make them.

Extracting a Key

If your key breaks off in a lock, expect to pay between $60 and $200 for extraction. The exact figure will depend on the type of lock, where you live, and whether you incur an emergency callout fee for nights, weekends, and holidays.

Duplicating a Key

Duplicating a key costs anywhere from $1 to $400. Standard house keys generally only cost $1 to $10. However, if you have a transponder key specifically coded to a security system, like the one in your car, you'll pay between $75 and $400 for a duplicate.

Opening a Safe

Opening a safe costs between $50 and $400, on average. If the job is just to set a new combination or switch a manual lock to an electronic one, expect to pay around $50 to $150. But to manually open a safe, you'll pay a safe locksmith a bare minimum of $150. For tougher cases, where the pro needs to drill into the lock to get it open, the price rises to $200 to $400.

What is Ctrl Alt F3?

Save this question. In Ubuntu, pressing Ctrl + Alt + F1 brings you to a console login. When you press Ctrl + Alt + F3 it also brings you to a console login.

Besides the number there is no difference.

There are some examples where more than 1 tty is useful.

tail -f {logfile} will show new entries that are added in the logfile. Where you can use another tty to start, stop a service or do some kind of command line instructions, or do something in mysql. same goes for analyzing CPU usages on your system: have sar or top / htop run on 1 tty and then use another session to start a browser, a command or service and by switching tty you can check what happens. And yes you can do that from a terminal in the desktop but not everyone has a desktop ;)
