Tips on Fixing a Flat Tire

Fixing a flat tire may be a simple thing for some and a complicated task for others. And, remember, not everyone had someone to teach them, either!

Here are a few tips on fixing a flat tire. We’d always recommend you learn how to do this on a tire that’s not flat first (practice, that is!)

Be sure you park the car in as safe a place as possible and use hazard lights and flares if necessary.
Brace your tires if possible by using material, such as a piece of wood, to put in front of and behind the other tires to prevent them from rolling when the jack is in use.
Use your owners manual to determine where to safely place the jack and evenly and slowly jack up the car.
Remove hubcaps and loosen the lug nuts.
Make sure the car is up high enough for the tire to smoothly come off.
Attach the spare and retighten the lug nuts.
Check the lug nuts after a few miles of driving to make sure they are secure and don’t drive too fast!

Call for service if you’re in a space you don’t feel safe changing your tire.

If you get locked out, be sure to call us at 484 891 1922!

Early locks were really heavy and made of wood rather than metal.

Padlocks can be traced all the way back to back to ancient Egypt!

Speaking of Egypt, keys were a symbol of wealth in that period of time due to the fact that few could afford safes or doors with locks.

Harry Houdini worked as a locksmith early on in his career! It’s true!

Hey Lehigh Valley, Should you replace or repair old locks in your home?

When you are fixing up a fixer-upper, lots of questions can arise. One question at the top of the list is most likely home security.

When your home is full of old and outdated locking mechanisms, what do you do?

That question isn’t answered with just a simple yes you do or no you don’t.

In fact, it should be preceded by even more questions.

Here are some of the questions you should be asking:

-How old are the locks?

-Are they functioning?

-Are they part of the aesthetic of the old home?

-Are they safe?

-Do they fit the needs of what I need currently?

-Between replacing and repairing, which is in my budget?

-Do I want to save some but replace/repair others?

-Can I function with an older locking system?

-Can the older locks be partially updated?

Basically, there are many options out there and you just don’t know what you’ll need to do until you get in there and start answering some serious questions.And if you’re just not sure how to get started, call us! We can evaluate and determine what we think is the best route to go, and help you get there!

What To Do If You Drive Your Car Into a River

We realize that driving into a river is a rare thing, but it happens. We guess. From time to time.

So, in the off chance that you do find yourself in a situation where you find yourself in a river and in a car, then the following information from SmartDriving can help you out!

Release your seatbelts and open the windows – be aware that the seatbelts might not retract; take care not to get tangled

If your head restraints are removable, pull them out when you release your seatbelt to enable easy passage for rear passengers – you can also use the head restraints to smash the side windows if necessary

If your windows jam, try to break them. An ’emergency hammer’ is ideal; a steering wheel security lock will do; or kick hard.

You may be able to open a door, but if you can, it’s probably better to exit through a window

The car will sink ‘heavy end’ first (the heavy end is where the engine is). In deeper water it may flip onto its roof

In a car that sinks front first, there will be a bubble of air in the back, but you should stay in the front … the front windows are often bigger and easier to get out of — for all passengers

The car won’t sink immediately, even with the windows open, however you must use every moment to free yourself and passengers and get out. Push children out first

It may seem obvious – but don’t try to save anything except lives. Computers, phones, purses, jewellery, etc. can be replaced – you can’t!

If you are unable to open a window, there is the equalisation option as a last resort. Keep your head. There should be enough air for the minute or two that it will take to prepare to escape. When the car is nearly full of water, take a deep breath and push a door open, you may need to do this with your feet (for extra strength). Note the wait: If you try to open the doors too soon the water pressure will defeat you
