Homes and buildings in East LA & Boyle Heights
Industrial and warehouse buildings rely on heavy-duty padlocks, mortise locks and roll-up doors that we service.
What happens when you call
If the job needs a part we don't carry, we'll tell you upfront and schedule a return visit rather than leave you with a half-finished door.
Payment is taken once the work is done and you're happy with it. Ask which methods we accept when you call.
Our technicians carry identification and will tell you their name when they arrive.
Security tips
- Photograph the key code stamped on new locks and store it somewhere safe.
- Keep spare keys labelled with a code, not your address.
- If a key is starting to bend or crack, have a new one cut from the code or an unworn key before it snaps in the lock.
- A door closer on a shared building entry stops it being left ajar.
