Beyond a Simple Swap: The Door System Assessment
Replacing a lock involves more than just unscrewing the old hardware and attaching new components. Many issues attributed to a failed lock are actually symptoms of underlying door problems, such as misalignment, worn strike plates, or a hollow door jamb lacking adequate reinforcement.
Our technicians begin by assessing the entire door system. This includes checking the door's alignment within the frame, the integrity of the strike plate, and the structural soundness of the jamb. A high-security Grade 1 deadbolt provides little protection if it is installed into a soft, unreinforced jamb with only short 3/4-inch screws rather than longer fasteners anchored into the stud.
Precision Hardware Fitting and Keying
Once the door's structural integrity is verified and any necessary adjustments are made, the new hardware is carefully selected and installed. We match the finish and style to your preference, ensuring the new lock complements your home's aesthetics.
Installation includes fitting deadbolts, knob sets, lever handles, or replacement storefront cylinders. If you have multiple locks, we can often key the new hardware to your existing keys upon request, simplifying your daily access with a single key for multiple entry points.
What to Expect During Your Lock Replacement
The process of changing your residential locks is straightforward. After the initial assessment and agreement on the scope of work, our technician proceeds with the hardware replacement. This involves removing the old lock components, preparing the door and frame for the new hardware, and installing the chosen lock set.
Each step ensures the new lock functions smoothly and securely. Upon completion, the technician will test the operation, confirm proper engagement of the bolt, and ensure the door closes and latches correctly. You will then be briefed on the features of your new lock.
