Verifying the caller
We ask for something that ties you to the premises: a lease, business card, or a call to the owner. Opening a shop for the wrong person is not a risk we take.

Locks for the house you actually live in.
Much of our work is in older houses, where the doors have settled, the frames are not quite square and the hardware has been changed three or four times over the decades. We like these jobs. They ask for judgement rather than a catalogue number: how to fit a modern deadbolt to a door that was never drilled for one, how to keep a period handle while making the lock behind it dependable. Our technicians carry the shims, fillers and odd-sized parts these houses need, and they take the time to get the alignment right. The result is a door that closes with one hand and locks without a shove, which is what an old house deserves.

Storefront and office locks vary, so we choose the approach that leaves the hardware intact wherever possible. If the lock itself has failed, we tell you before opening it.

Once inside we check the lock, cut keys if needed and note anything that should be addressed later so your day can carry on.

Heritage hardware asks for a different pace. Screws are slotted and soft, castings are irreplaceable, and the finish on a brass escutcheon took a century to arrive at.


Step 1 of 5
Describe the property, the hardware and what has changed, and the visit starts from what you have seen.

Step 2 of 5
We ask for something that ties you to the premises: a lease, business card, or a call to the owner. Opening a shop for the wrong person is not a risk we take.

Step 3 of 5
The job starts with your description, not our assumptions. What you have noticed about the door often points to the cause before we touch it.

Step 4 of 5
Some hardware deserves saving and some does not. We tell you which and why, so you spend on what makes a difference.

Step 5 of 5
The door works, the area is clean and you have keys, notes and a clear idea of what to watch for. That is the standard for every visit.
