Locks on older homes and apartment buildings in 90016

Adding a deadbolt to an older door is a common job: we drill and fit the bolt, then anchor the strike with longer screws into the frame. Older Craftsman and Spanish-style houses often have original mortise locksets, and many can be repaired or rekeyed rather than replaced, which keeps the door’s character.

Renters should check their lease before changing locks; most landlords allow a rekey if they receive a copy of the new key, and we can cut that extra key on site. If a building gate or laundry room uses its own key, we can copy it as long as it isn’t marked do-not-duplicate and you have permission.
