Lock Installation Done Right the First Time
Installing a lock correctly means more than screwing on hardware. Alameda Locksmiths bores new doors, cuts clean mortises, aligns strikes and installs reinforced plates so the lock performs the way the manufacturer intended. We work on wood, fiberglass, steel and aluminum doors throughout Alameda.
Typical projects include fitting locks on brand new doors, adding a deadbolt above an existing knob, installing locks on interior doors for offices or shared housing, securing garage side doors and sheds, and putting proper hardware on gates and storage rooms. Many customers combine this with our Safe Installation service and our Gate Locks service.
Every installation is finished with a working test of the door, weather seal check and a full set of keys. We can also key the new lock to match your existing locks so you do not add another key to the ring.
