Residential Locksmith in Sacramento

Licensed, insured and bonded. California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services License No. LCO 6830. Open 24 hours, 7 days a week. Proof of ownership is required before any lock is opened.

Most residential work is one of three things: you have moved in and do not know who else holds a key, a lock has stopped working properly, or you are upgrading after a scare.

What the job involves

• Rekeying existing deadbolts and knob sets so every previous key stops working
• Supplying and fitting deadbolts, entry sets and high-security cylinders
• Repairing locks that stick, drag or no longer align with the strike plate
• Window, cabinet, mailbox and sliding-door locks
• Repair and re-securing after a break-in, including the door frame and strike

What to have ready when you call

• Which doors are affected and roughly how many locks are involved
• Whether you want the same key to work every door
• The brand stamped on the lock face if you can see it
• Proof that the property is yours or that you rent it

Honest limits

A lock that has been forced, or a door that has dropped on its hinges, is a carpentry problem as much as a lock problem. If the frame is damaged the lock will keep binding until the frame is put right.
