A lock only protects you if it is installed square in the door with a reinforced strike. We replace worn locks, install new deadbolts on doors that have none, and fit hardware on new or historic doors, including the thick, non-standard doors found on many older DC homes.

What this service covers

  • Grade 1 and Grade 2 deadbolts
  • Fresh installation with door drilling and strike reinforcement
  • Handle sets, levers and knobs
  • Mortise lock replacement and conversion
  • Patio, sliding door and gate locks
