Home security is a priority for residents in Central Florida. Whether you need to repair or replace old lock hardware or correct a previous poor installation, our experienced team delivers dependable results. We address a range of needs—from installing door knobs and deadbolts to aligning strike plates and reinforcing door jambs.

Our Lock Installation Process

We begin by assessing your door and current hardware. Our technicians measure the door edge and verify the position of the existing holes using a tape measure and alignment templates. We then determine the best lock system based on your door type, thickness, and desired security level. Our process includes:

• Removing any worn or damaged hardware
• Preparing the door surface with a drill bit, hole saw, and chisel if new holes are required
• Setting the lock components—such as the latch assembly, inside knob, and deadbolt—in precise alignment
• Tightening mounting screws and ensuring the strike plate is flush with the door jamb

After installation, we test the lock to ensure the key turns smoothly, the latch engages correctly, and the overall system is secure. We also provide advice on maintaining your new lockset.

Lock Installation for New Doors

When we drill a door for a new lock we use templates to ensure our cuts are precise and the new lock fits perfectly and operates smoothly.

Newly installed doors may not have pre-drilled holes for locks, but there’s no need to worry because we offer complete installation services for new doors. We mark and drill the required bore and edge holes using precise measurements and quality drill bits.  We then mortise the area for the latch assembly and install the lockset, whether it is a knob, lever, or deadbolt. Our installation covers all essential components:

• The main bore for the lock cylinder
• The edge hole for the latch assembly
• Mounting of the inside knob or lever and the outside knob
• Secure fitting of the strike plate on the door jamb

This comprehensive service guarantees the lock is installed correctly and functions smoothly from the first use.

Upgrading and Replacing Lock Hardware

Over time, locks may wear out or become outdated. In these cases, we remove old hardware and fit a new lockset that enhances your home’s security. Our replacements are chosen to match the door’s dimensions and design. We often recommend upgrading builder-grade locks to higher-quality models that are more resistant to tampering and forced entry.

If your current setup shows misalignment—such as a strike plate that does not align with the latch or a lock that sticks—we correct these issues and may adjust the door jamb or the lock’s position. This ensures that your entry system functions reliably while preserving the aesthetic appeal of your home.

Lock Solutions for Rental Properties

Landlords and property managers in the Lady Lake area often require secure, easy-to-manage lock systems for rental units. We install locksets that are ideal for high-turnover environments. These systems are chosen for their durability and ease of rekeying, ensuring you can quickly update access between tenants without replacing the entire system.

Our team works with multiple units to standardize key systems, reducing overall costs and enhancing property security. This service helps maintain control over who holds keys and simplifies the process during tenant transitions.

Preparing for Your Appointment

To help us serve you efficiently, please prepare the following:

• Let us know if you have already purchased your lock or if you need a recommendation from our team
• Inform us of any previous repairs or damage to the door
• Provide access to both sides of the door for proper installation
• Share whether you want the new lock to match your existing key system or keyed alike for multiple doors

This information allows our technicians to bring the right tools and parts, ensuring a smooth and accurate installation.
