**Are you a handy kind of Guy or Gal?** I am not. I normally need some sort of guidance from someone that knows what they are doing. Like when I work on my truck, I always have my father-in-law come over to help. Just because I wouldn't want to mess something up.

The other day I got a new lock and deadbolt set for the front door, the one we had was pretty old. I decided to tackle this front door renovation (just kidding) on by myself. Actually it was pretty easy, I was able to use a Phillips screwdriver and a small hammer. I removed the old lock set and replaced it a [Master Lock](http://www.masterlock.com/personal-use/product/BCCO0615) set in about twenty minutes.

I had a little help take off the old door nob and deadbolt. It seems every time I get a screwdriver or misalliance tools out, she runs over to help.

## Why I Chose a Masterlock
