Lock Repair
- Economical vs Replacement
- Prevent failure
- Maintain uniform aesthetics
As good as it might feel to throw out a troublesome lock, often times a lock can be repaired instead of replaced.
Also, especially in an office, maintaining a uniform, professional look is important. Your silverware matches at home, your locks should match at the office. It's one of those small things that is largely noticeable, but if we can repair one lock, then that will look better than replacing just one and cost less than replacing many.
You might think you're crafty because you can always get that old door to work when it gives you trouble, but one day, that old door is going to outsmart you - or trap a customer or let in the wrong people at the wrong time. Call us to repair those faulty locks before they outsmart you and cause trouble.
Advanced Biometric Lock: Still has mechanical innards.
A good thing to do for any lock, is to lubricate it. Locking and latching, over and over, can wear on a lock and make it stick or jam. Remember, even if you've got electronic access, the door locks and latches are still mechanical and so should be lubricated.
The best time to lubricate a lock is when it doesn't feel like it needs it. By the time a lock needs to be lubricated, the wear has already occurred, so even if it works better, it may not work much longer.
If lubrication seems to have solved the problem or your locks are still acting up, or obviously damaged, please give us a call and we'll get things solidly working again.
