Homes and buildings in Brookland
Older frame houses move with the seasons. Doors swell and frames shift, so a lock that turned easily in winter may bind in summer. Student rentals near the universities turn over regularly.

Calls we often get in Brookland
Brookland's older frame houses often have locks that bind in humid weather or deadbolts that only throw when you push the door. We adjust strikes and hinges, repair worn locks and rekey for new owners and for rentals near the universities.
Newer buildings near Monroe Street
Residents of the newer apartment buildings mostly call for unit lockouts and spare keys. If your building uses electronic fobs for the main entrance, those are handled by building management; we work on your unit door lock.
Local tip for Brookland residents
If your deadbolt only locks when you push or lift the door, the problem may be the door or strike, not the lock. Adjusting the strike is often all it needs.
