The buildings and the hardware
Homes and small commercial buildings in this part of Montgomery County bring a mix of older and newer hardware. Many houses have solid wood doors with mortise or rim cylinders, or older bored cylindrical locks mounted in door-edge cutouts, while some duplexes and newer subdivisions use modern bored locks and key-in-knob sets. That variety changes the work: mortise locks require removal and servicing of the lock body, while bored locks often need only cylinder extraction and repinning. Commercial doors may use exit devices or commercial cylindrical locks that need different fasteners and strike reinforcement. We bring the appropriate drivers, punches, and replacement parts for both types.
