Many homes feature basic, Grade 3 builder-grade deadbolts constructed from hollow pot metal. When executing a front door lock replacement, we strongly recommend upgrading to ANSI Grade 1 or Grade 2 hardware. These locks feature solid brass cylinders, anti-drill ball bearings, and hardened steel bolts that actively resist sawing. More importantly, we address the weakest link: the door jamb. We install reinforced strike plates using three-inch steel screws that bite directly into the "king stud" of your wall, transferring the violent kinetic force of a kick-in attack away from the fragile wooden door frame and into the structural framing of the house.
The front door is the architectural focal point of your entire property. Upgrading to a modern, sweeping handleset drastically improves aesthetics. When performing a front door handle replacement, absolute precision alignment is critical. We ensure the cross-bore and edge-bore holes perfectly accommodate the new tubular latch mechanism. We use specialized jigs to drill the through-holes for the bottom of the handleset, ensuring the hardware mounts perfectly plumb, straight, and flush against the door surface.
Our capabilities extend far beyond standard metal locks. We expertly install electronic keypad deadbolts and Wi-Fi-enabled smart locks so you can ditch your keychain. We meticulously calibrate the alignment of the door so the deadbolt motor glides effortlessly into the strike plate, preventing the severe battery drain and motor burnout that is incredibly common with amateur DIY smart lock installations.
Do not tolerate sticking latches or hollow, insecure deadbolts. Upgrade your home's primary barrier with heavy-duty, professionally installed hardware that looks incredible.

Grizzly Flats originated as a gold mining camp in the 1850s. The name was given by prospectors who were surprised by a grizzly bear there in 1850. In 1852 it was described as being on a flat piece of land measuring approximately one mile by three quarters of a mile and having two combination bars, stores, and boarding houses, with more under construction. It was located centrally in a jurisdiction called Mountain Township. A post office opened in 1854, a stagecoach route to Diamond Springs in 1855, and a Wells Fargo office in 1857. Catholic and Methodist churches were also established in the mid-1850s.
