Locks and homes in Valley Village

Valley Village is tidy homes and condos on quiet tree-lined streets, so we handle rekeys at move-in, new deadbolts, condo and townhouse lockouts, and car keys in the driveway. We open doors without drilling wherever the lock allows.

Valley Village is quieter than the streets around it and the housing shows it: forties and fifties single-family homes on tree-lined blocks, plus a steady band of small apartment buildings along the bigger streets. It is a neighborhood people stay in, which means we see a lot of original hardware that has never been changed, front doors on cylinders older than the owner, and side gates that were last rekeyed by somebody two owners ago. The other recurring job is the door between the garage and the house, which in houses of this age was almost never given a deadbolt.

How fast

Getting to Valley Village

Seventeen miles over the pass, so 25 to 40 minutes, with the 170 deciding most of it. The residential streets here are easy to park on, which is not something we can say about the hillside neighborhoods a mile away.

Questions

Valley Village locksmith questions

Can you rekey a Valley Village condo?

Yes. Condo and townhouse rekeys are routine for us, and we set every door we rekey to a single key.

Do you open condo lockouts without damage?

We do. We open the great majority of lockouts by picking, with no harm to the door, and quote a firm price first.

We have lived here twenty years and never changed the locks. Is that a problem?

It is worth an hour of your time. Twenty years is contractors, house sitters, a lodger, a lost key nobody mentioned. Rekeying every exterior lock to one new key resets that list completely and costs far less than replacing hardware that is otherwise fine.

Does the garage door into the house need a proper lock?

It should have a deadbolt, and in houses of this age it almost never does. Anyone who gets into the garage is then working on the weakest door in the house, out of sight of the street. It is one of the cheapest security fixes available on a house like this.
