Homes and buildings in Takoma
Detached houses mean more doors: front, back, side, basement and garage. Secondary doors are often overlooked and still have their original, basic locks.

Calls we often get in Takoma and Shepherd Park
Homeowners here call when a rarely used side or basement door finally won't lock, when they want every door keyed alike, or when an inherited or old home safe needs opening. Newer homes near the former Walter Reed campus mostly need spare keys and rekeying after moving in.
Bungalows and older doors
Many bungalows have original wooden doors that have shifted over decades. Before replacing a lock that won't latch, we check whether the strike or hinges need adjusting, which is often the real fix.
Local tip for Takoma residents
Burglars often try the doors people use least. Give your side and basement doors the same deadbolt quality as the front door.
