The buildings and the hardware
The housing stock here often means older doors with retrofit hardware or new apartment hardware installed into older frames, which affects the lockwork. You’ll see a mix of single-family houses with thicker, sometimes warped doors that need longer bolts and reinforced strike plates, and multi-unit buildings with latchsets and keyed-alike systems. Older doors frequently need the frame and strike corrected before a lock can be secure; that’s a different job than just swapping a cylinder. For rentals and apartments we do rekeys and keyed-alike setups; for houses we often recommend deadbolt reinforcement or upgraded cylinders to match the door condition.
