When You Need Us

When to Install New Locks

Six moments when fresh hardware is the right call. We handle every one across the St. Louis metro.

Just Moved In

Do not assume previous owners returned every key. New locks (or a rekey) put you in full control from day one.

After a Break-In

Forced entry damages cylinders, strike plates, and door frames. Replace immediately and reinforce with security plates.

Worn or Sticky Locks

Years of use wear pins and cylinders. New locks restore smooth operation and prevent the surprise lockout that follows a jammed key.

New Construction

Raw doors, no existing holes. We bore, mortise strike plates, align hardware, and hand off keys ready to use.

Going Keyless

Upgrade to keypad or smart locks. App control, guest codes, auto-lock. See our smart lock service for the full lineup.

Rental Turnover

Tenant moves out, you take back control. Same-day install or rekey for single units or entire multi-unit buildings.

The Process

How Lock Installation Works

From the first consultation to fully working locks with reinforced strikes. Here is what happens.

Security Consultation

free

Walk the property with you. Recommend the right grade and brand for each door (front entry, side, garage, interior). Discuss what you are protecting and how you use the space.

Door Prep + Boring

20-35 min

Drill, chisel, and mortise the door for hardware. Carbide hole saws for metal doors. Tape and slow speeds on fiberglass to prevent splintering. Misaligned holes cause binding, so we use jigs.

Install + Reinforce Strike

15-25 min

Install the lockset and reinforced strike plate with 3-inch security screws into the structural frame. Kick-ins are the #1 break-in method, and reinforced strikes stop most attempts.

Test + Hand Off Keys

Cycle the lock dozens of times. Verify deadbolt throw, latch alignment, and key turn smoothness. Or skip new locks entirely and rekey existing ones.

Every Installation Includes:

  • Free security consultation and lock recommendation
  • Complete door prep (boring, mortising, alignment)
  • Reinforced strike plate with 3-inch security screws
  • All keys provided and tested on the spot
  • Function testing and operation walkthrough
  • 1-year workmanship warranty
