The buildings and the hardware
The area's housing stock affects the locks we see. Older wood doors often have mortise locks or older rim cylinders that need different driver bits and longer replacement parts; interior doors can be hollow-core and require longer screws or reinforcement plates if a deadbolt is being added. Apartment buildings bring keyed-alike systems, mailbox locks and interconnected hardware, while storefronts typically use heavier metal edge-pull locks, panic hardware and surface-mounted exit devices. That variety means we bring both residential latch sets and commercial-grade cylinders, plus the right fasteners and reinforcing plates to match each door and frame.
