Lock and Key Replacement

Deadbolt Installation

A deadbolt is more secure than a normal lock due to the lack of spring action in the interior of this higher security lock. A regular doorknob lock typically operates on a spring action, and may be picked with some amount of manipulation, increasing the chance of a break-in. The cylinder in a deadbolt lock is fixed and will only turn when the proper key is placed into the lock. Washington DC Locksmiths can install and service deadbolts on any door in your home, adding an extra level of security to any interior or exterior door. Once your deadbolt is properly installed, the friendly locksmith technician from Washington DC Locksmiths will issue a brand new set of keys for your new, secure lock.

Mortise & Decorative Lock Installation, Repair or Replacement

As time goes by and a home settles, they will most likely need to be replaced or serviced.
