## Most 'Broken Locks' Are Really a Door That Drifted

A deadbolt that needs a lift-and-jiggle, a latch that misses, a key that fights — nine times out of ten the mechanism is innocent: the door has drifted on its hinges and the lock no longer meets its strike where it used to. That's why our hardware visits true the geometry first — hinges re-anchored, strikes re-set — and only then judge the mechanism. New hardware bolted onto a crooked door fails by spring; we don't sell that.
- Doors trued to close with two fingers, no slam
- Strikes re-set, hinges re-anchored into solid wood
- Screw-torn jamb wood repaired so anchors bite
- Then — and only then — the mechanism verdict

## From Mortise Boxes to Panic Bars — the Whole Hardware Catalog

Modern deadbolts and handlesets service or replace for $175. Sliding doors glide again on new rollers ($475). Century-old mortise locks — the big rectangular boxes in older homes — rebuild rather than land in a drawer. Storefronts get panic bars and closers kept legal and smooth. One catalog, written prices, and the same rule everywhere: repair the mechanism that exists before selling the one that doesn't.
- Deadbolts & locksets — $175 · weatherstripping — $175
- Sliding rollers — $475 · with wheels $535
- Mortise locks — rebuilt, a specialty of older homes
- Panic bars & closers — commercial doors kept compliant

## Door Hardware — FAQ

**Q: I have to lift the handle to turn the deadbolt. Replace the lock?**

A: Check the geometry first — that lift is you manually re-aligning a drifted door. We true the hinges and strike so the bolt glides home with the door hanging naturally; if the mechanism itself is worn, replacement is $175. Often the alignment alone solves it, and no lock purchase survives a crooked door anyway.

**Q: My sliding door needs two hands and a prayer. Hardware?**

A: Rollers — $475, $535 with wheels, track serviced while it's apart. The most-condemned door we see is a slider with flat rollers, and it's a same-visit fix.

**Q: Can you service antique mortise locks?**

A: Gladly — the big boxes in pre-war doors were engineered to be rebuilt, and we rebuild them. Where a part is truly unobtainable we fit the closest honest match and show you before anything changes.

**Q: Someone kicked our door. What's repairable?**

A: Usually everything: pried locks and bent strikes replace, splintered jamb wood rebuilds in real wood (from $475), and priority scheduling means morning calls are commonly secure by nightfall.

**Q: Do you handle commercial door hardware?**

A: Yes — panic bars, closers, pivots and storefront locks, kept legal for the fire marshal and smooth for your customers. Written quotes that property managers can file.

**Q: Coverage?**

A: Anywhere on the coverage list below — the city pages carry the local detail. Same catalog everywhere.
