Finding a certified, experienced locksmith is no easy task. Sure, dozens of companies out there will dispatch an indifferent "technician" that offers "quick" solutions when you lose your keys. But when it comes to protecting your home and your business, cheap locks and part-time contractors just won't cut it. Arrowhead Lock & Safe stands out as the most trusted name in security solutions and products in Georgia in an industry known for poor service and mediocre locksmiths.

Though home appraisers may disagree, the value of your home isn't defined by the four walls and roofs that cover a property. The real value of your home lies within those walls where your family eats, sleeps, and plays.

Your home is only as safe as the locks that you have on your doors. As your locks age or when you are the victim of a security threat, you may feel that it's time to install new locks on the doors of your home. This can be long, laborious, and complicated for the average homeowner. For that reason, many clients trust Arrowhead Lock & Safe to handle the hard work for them.

If you are a business owner in Georgia, you have the weighty responsibility of protecting your patrons and securing your businesses' assets. The most common way for entrepreneurs to keep their business safe is by having a commercial locksmith in Alpharetta install quality, reliable locks on every entry point of your storefront. But, unfortunately, many business owners take the least amount of effort necessary when it comes to protecting their business.
Whether you own several franchise locations or have a single storefront, it only takes one break-in to make you realize the importance of installing high-quality locks for your commercial property. Sadly, at that point, it's too late - your ability to provide for your family and pay your bills has been compromised. For that reason alone, it's always better to be proactive about your businesses' security rather than reactive.
At Arrowhead Lock & Safe, our commercial door lock services are designed to ensure that your assets and your customers are protecting 24-hours a day, seven days a week. We will always take the time to walk you through your options, explaining the pros and cons of each security solution so that you can make an informed decision. With a wide range of security offerings and a reliable team of commercial locksmith experts on your side, choosing the right security setup is easy, efficient, and affordable.
Installing high-quality door locks for your business is one of the best ways to protect your assets and your commercial property. At Arrowhead Lock & Safe, we offer many commercial door lock options from the best brands in our industry. From reliable maintenance service on your current Grade 3 locks to new Grade 1 commercial door lock installation, our team of commercial locksmiths is ready to help.
If your businesses' locks are old and need proper maintenance or corrective repair services, it's always best to work with a team of experts. From re-keying services to fixing stuck or broken locks, our commercial locksmiths are only a phone call away.
Commercial alarms for businesses are more complex than their residential relatives, and for a good reason. Our cutting-edge alarm systems are great for preventing and interrupting break-ins, notifying the authorities, and act as an important addition to any business that wants enhanced security.
A commercial-grade CCTV system installed by Arrowhead Lock & Safe allows you to monitor all activities that take place under your businesses' roof. Having security cameras installed around your business gives you added peace of mind and evidence for the police if a break-in occurs. Having visible security cameras can also help deter criminals and prevent suspicious activity from ever taking place. With remote monitoring capability on your smart device, you can check in on your storefront any time of the night or day, from just about any location.
Having the ability to control every one of your businesses' locks is a proactive, cost-efficient way to protect your customers and your assets. With a commercial-grade control access system from Arrowhead Lock & Safe, business owners can easily restrict certain areas within their store, prevent physical key duplication, record entry history, and even simplify employee turnover.
Entryways can be especially vulnerable, but Arrowhead Lock and Safe know how to select and install the best doors for your business. When you add remote control access features, business owners can open other structures like motorized fences, large parking gates, and even barriers.
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) grading system was developed years ago to standardize a testing procedure to measure the durability and strength of a door lock. This grading system applies to both residential and commercial door locks. Composed of three different grades, the ANSI grading system gives homeowners and business owners a good idea of lock quality and reliability. ANSI examines six different qualities to determine a lock's grade:
These locks offer the highest level of security and are most often used by institutions like hospitals, schools, and even museums. These locks also have the highest life expectancy, though they can be much more complex and require an expert residential or commercial locksmith in cityname to install. In today's day and age, many more homeowners are opting for Grade 1 locks (like electronic locks) for the most peace of mind. This classification of lock must hold up against 800,000 cycles, six door strikes and a 360-pound weight test.
These locks are great for residential areas with more foot traffic, like a door that leads to an apartment complex or suite of rooms. These locks can also suffice for small businesses that need a higher level of security than Grade 3 locks. Use these locks when you want to secure access to areas with valuable equipment or sensitive documents. This classification of lock requires 400,000 cycles, four door strikes, and a 250-pound weight test.
This grade of lock is best suited for residential purposes and is considered standard door hardware. This kind of lock is the least expensive and should never be used in a high-traffic area like a lobby or storefront. However, these locks would be suitable for areas without much foot traffic like storage closets or areas without expensive merchandise. Because these locks are easiest to bypass, consider upgrading your Grade 3 locks with anti-bump and anti-pick technology. This classification of lock requires 200,000 lock cycles, two door strikes, and a 150-pound weight test.
A famous animator and movie director once said: "The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing." This quote rings especially true when it comes to protecting your home or business with the best security solutions in Georgia. If you're worried about the safety of your family or the wealth that you have worked so hard to create, contact our office today at 404-351-4331 for a free consultation.

Where Las Vegas import Carson Kitchen failed, Roswell restaurant the Standard hopes to succeed when it opens at Alpharetta City Center later this fall.
A second location of the popular Roswell bar and grill, located inside an old gas station at the corner of Highway 9 and Norcross Street, is headed to downtown Alpharetta by the end of the year. The Standard takes over the former Carson Kitchen space along Main Street at Alpharetta City Center. Carson Kitchen closed earlier this year in Alpharetta after only three years.
As in Roswell, expect a menu of pizzas, like the meat lovers and the Breakfast topped with sausage, bacon, onions, and a sunny egg, as well as burgers, wings, and sandwiches and wraps served with fries. Look for a rotating selection of craft, local, and imported beers, live music during lunch and dinner, and a late-night food menu at the Alpharetta location.
The 26-acre Alpharetta City Center now features a number of restaurants open around the expansive redevelopment of the downtown area, including Chiringa, Restaurant Holmes, Lapeer Steakhouse, and brewery and brewpub Jekyll Brewing.
Spanish-Latin restaurant Fogón and Lions opened in 2022 just beyond the border of the City Center development on Roswell Street in what has become a bustling downtown dining district in Alpharetta. Chef Mel Toledo reopened his former Roswell restaurant Foundation Social Eatery in a larger location, one block south of Fogón and Lions on Roswell Street. The restaurant features a Parisian-style cafe and market inside called Petite FSE.

On the evening of April 23, the City of Alpharetta will begin extensive rehabilitation and resurfacing of Windward Parkway between Georgia 400 and Alderman Drive / Windward Plaza.

On the evening of April 23, the City of Alpharetta will begin extensive rehabilitation and resurfacing of Windward Parkway between Georgia 400 and Alderman Drive / Windward Plaza. Lane closures will occur throughout the two-week project, but at least one lane in each direction will remain open at all times, and access to side streets will be maintained.
Due to the extent of work that must be performed to address underlying deterioration of the road between North Point Parkway and Alderman Drive, work in that area will be performed 24 hours per day so that the total number of days and impacts to motorists can be reduced.
This area of Windward Parkway has seen significant degradation of the underlying roadbed, so the asphalt layer will be removed and soil cement applied to rebuild and reinforce the foundation. Soil-cement is a mixture of Portland cement, natural soil, and water used to form a hard, semi-rigid paving surface. It is most often used in highways or as a sub-base for asphalt or other forms of paving to modify the soil subgrade strength and provide a working platform in unsuitable conditions.
In short, the section of Windward Parkway between North Point Parkway and Alderman Drive is not simply being resurfaced. It is being rebuilt to provide better strength and durability and address the underlying issues that have caused excessive formation of potholes.
Fortunately, those underlying conditions are not present in the area between GA400 and North Point Parkway, so road work in this area is limited to resurfacing/repaving and will be performed at night. Work will begin after 7:30 PM and the road will be reopened by 5:00 AM each day.
Motorists should expect travel delays on Windward Parkway beginning April 23 and lasting for approximately two weeks. The best way to minimize travel delays and frustration will be by avoiding travel during peak commute periods, as alternate routes of travel in the affected area are limited.
Businesses in the area are encouraged to promote telework options during the construction period, and large employers are asked to consider slightly adjusting arrival and dismissal times during the workday. Traffic congestion and delays can be greatly reduced by neighboring businesses coordinating so that one adjusts their times 15 minutes earlier while a neighboring business adjusts theirs 15 minutes later.

Last night (Sunday, July 16), Phish took the stage at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, Ga., effectively closing out their three-night stint in Georgia as part of their summer 2023 tour. The final evening like the two that came before it, was hot and drenched with jams along with special moments, including two debuts and the first “You Enjoy Myself” the Peach State has experienced in two decades.
The first set opened with an energetic sequence of three songs comprised of “Buried Alive” followed by “Wilson” and “NICU.” After the build-up of energy, they transitioned into a bubbling and relaxing “Bathtub Gin” before a relatively standard “Gumbo” followed. “Limb By Limb” provided a blissful interlude before Phish unveiled a surprise debut, “The Well.” This fresh addition to their repertoire–which had been heard in June when Trey Anastasio Trio dished it out to fans in Denver–delighted fans and added to the list of debuts shared over the three days. The set continued with “Mountains in the Mist,” “Halfway to the Moon,” and a scorching rendition of “Split Open and Melt.”
After an intermission, Phish returned for the second set, which also kicked off with a jammed-out trio, this time comprised of “Mike’s Song” > “Carini” > “Weekapaug Groove.” The band’s improvisational prowess was on full display as they moved into the frame’s centerpiece, a dynamic performance of “Sand.” Phish then unleashed a crowd favorite, “Reba,” before wrapping up the second set with “More.”
For the encore, Phish returned with their first-ever rendition of “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia.” For the debut, Fishman decided to switch things up. He left his familiar drum kit behind and stepped forward with a guitar, ready to take on lead vocals for a spirited rendition of Reba McEntire’s classic. A playful romp through the song followed, with Anastasio cheering him on from the kit. As the last notes of “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia” rang out, the band segued into a haphazard yet delightful rendition of “Hold Your Head Up” with the drummer still on guitar. With a charming mix of humility and humor, Fishman addressed the audience, apologizing for what he humorously referred to as his “truly wretched” guitar playing. He playfully urged the audience to tell their future grandkids they witnessed this rare and entertaining moment firsthand. Anastasio then stated that “Moses Brown” or “Moses Dewitt” is “the only man who can part the Red Sea with his guitar playing,” evoking laughter from the crowd.
Despite the already elevated level of joy, the surprises weren’t over. Anastasio dedicated the final song of the run to a devoted fan who proudly sported a shirt indicating that it had been two decades since Phish last played “You Enjoy Myself” in Georgia—a fact that was indeed true. With a knowing nod to the fan’s dedication, the band launched into the beloved tune ending the lapse.
Phish will bring their summer tour to North Carolina next, with two performances set for the Live Oak Bank Pavilion at Riverfront Park in Wilmington. Watch all remaining shows of Phish’s 2023 Summer Tour from home via LivePhish in 4K or HD + 48 hours of unlimited replay here.

ALPHARETTA, Ga. — What’s on your weekend getaway to-do list?

ALPHARETTA, Ga. — What’s on your weekend getaway to-do list? If shopping, great food, live music, and family fun top the list, head to downtown Alpharetta on your next adventure.
“The destination of Alpharetta is never lacking in fun,” Kendall Bagley from the Alpharetta Convention and Visitor Bureau told WSBTV.com’s Nelson Hicks.
Downtown Alpharetta encompasses 1.7 square miles. In that area, you’ll find 70 restaurants and bars. From beach cuisine to barbecue, scrumptious sweets to Spanish sustenance, there’s an eatery that’s bound to tantalize everyone’s palate.
“Fogon and Lions restaurant is a Spanish-Latin concept,” chef Julio Delgado said. “We have beautiful tapas. Everything is cooked over a wood fire. (We have some) amazing Paellas, churrascos. We have a very diverse menu featuring cuisines from Central and South America and Spain.”
Whether you prefer an elegant dinner, a nice meal out on the patio, cold beers with friends, or a hot dog on the town green, the choice is yours.
Before and after eating, spend some time shopping. Sprinkled in between all the Alpharetta restaurants are plenty of local shops. Find your next great outfit or piece of home decor in one of the 50 shops in the downtown area.
“A big draw to this is that Alpharetta has more options for dining and shopping,” Saleh Akley from The Hamilton Hotel said. “A lot of the smaller mom-and-pop stores really bring a lot of character to the city.”
The best part is, it’s all walkable. Drive in, drop the car off, and enjoy an afternoon and evening of fun without picking up the keys. Turn it into an overnight adventure with a stay at The Hamilton Hotel.
“We offer a great option for people looking to come into Alpharetta, maybe that’s not located directly next to a corporate office or right next to big shopping, but more of the small-town, city feel,” Akley said.
Akley notes the boutique hotel attracts Atlanta area leisure guests every weekend. Carrie’s in The Hamilton just unveiled an all-day menu and will host social hour from 4-7 p.m. each day. With 119 rooms, an outdoor patio and green, a bar, and food offerings, visitors don’t have to leave the hotel on a weekend stay, but if they do, they don’t have to go far for some fun.
Next to the Hamilton Hotel sits Roaring Social, a 1920s speakeasy-themed bar. The venue notes, “As you sink into velvet sofas, taking in the impeccable surroundings, you’ll swear you hear the whispered conversations, laughter, and strains of music of a bygone era. Surrounded by opulence and world-class style, you’ll discover to your surprise that the pleasures of the past are present today.”
Live music, craft cocktails, small plates, and sharables, great conversation, and boutique bowling all fill the menu at Roaring Social.
Just down the street is Fairway Social. If your idea of fun involves sports action, this is your place.
“We offer an awesome experience for everyone in the community to come and play games,” David Gomrick from Fairway Social said. “People may think that it’s just related to golf, but we actually have 16 different games on our simulators.
There’s a large rooftop patio and a golf course called the Back Nine that is roughly based on Augusta National. Play a game, watch a game, and maybe even enjoy the Back Nine on a visit.
“The Back Nine is awesome,” Gomrick said. “So it’s a more cultivated mini-golf experience where you can get a little more out of it than you would at a mini-golf place. The greens have a bank. You have to use strategy to get around certain things. (There are) divots. It just makes it a little more challenging than your standard mini-golf course. It almost makes you feel like you’re out on a mini back nine.
Alpharetta has been voted the “#1 Place to Relocate in America.” Money Magazine listed it in the top 25 best places to Live,” and Southern Living Magazine applauded Alpharetta as one of the “Top 15 Friendliest Cities.”
Don’t miss out on all the reasons why. Head to downtown Alpharetta for your next night away and enjoy a new experience.
