Locks and homes in North Hills

North Hills was called Sepulveda until 1991, and it still splits along that old line: east of the 405 the streets are lined with two-story apartment buildings and courtyard complexes, while the west side near Plummer Street and Haskell Avenue is mostly ranch houses on quiet blocks.

Rental buildings are the bigger part of the work here. When a tenant moves out, the unit door needs a new key before the next one moves in, and on an older building that means a rekey of the deadbolt and the knob together so one key runs both. The shared parts go with it: the pedestrian gate on the street, the laundry room, the cluster mailboxes, the trash enclosure. A manager who has collected a ring of thirty unmarked keys over the years usually wants them cut down to a small master system: every tenant opens their own unit and the common doors, and the manager opens all of it.

Questions

North Hills locksmith questions

How quickly can you rekey a unit between tenants?

Usually the same day, often while the cleaners are still in. Text the address, the unit number and a photo of the lock, then call if it is urgent, and we fit it around the move.

Can you key my building so each tenant opens their unit and the shared gate?

Yes. That is a small master key system: each unit has its own key, the gate, laundry and mail area accept every tenant key, and your master opens everything. We can build it from the locks you have where they are sound.

Do you replace mailbox locks for apartment buildings?

Yes, on most cluster and wall-mounted mailboxes, one door or the whole bank. For a USPS-owned cluster box the post office handles the master lock, but the tenant compartments are usually the owner's to change.
