Window & Cabinet Locks 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.

These are the locks people stop noticing. A window catch that has never worked, a filing cabinet whose key went with the last office manager, a display cabinet that will not lock. None of them are emergencies, and all of them matter the moment they do.

What the job involves

• Window locks fitted to sash, casement and sliding windows, matched to the frame material
• Cabinet, drawer, cupboard and display-case locks supplied and fitted
• Filing cabinet and key cabinet locks opened and replaced when the key is gone
• Keying multiple cabinets alike so one key runs the set, where that is what you want
• Replacing worn cam locks and push locks that no longer hold

What to have ready when you call

• What the lock is fitted to, and what it is made of
• A photograph of the existing lock and its fixing, which answers most questions immediately
• Whether any key exists
• How many units need to match, if it is a set
• Proof of ownership, or authority for the premises if it is a workplace

Honest limits

Window locks are a genuine trade-off, not a pure upgrade. A key-locking window catch is also a locked exit in a fire, so on bedrooms and any window that is part of an escape route the key has to live somewhere reachable in the dark. That is a fire-safety point, not a sales point, and it is worth deciding deliberately. On cabinets, the lock is usually stronger than the panel it is fitted to -- a lock on a thin door slows a casual hand, and nothing more. Say what you are actually protecting and you will get an honest answer about whether the lock is the right spend.
