"We needed our 1880 mortise lock rebuilt without altering the door. DC Local Locksmith treated the hardware like a historic artifact. Same-day. Photo quote arrived before they did."
Margaret W., Georgetown
"Smart lock retrofit on our Victorian rowhouse. They preserved the original brass plate and kept the period look. The quote they texted me matched the invoice exactly."
Patrick S., Dupont Circle
"Lost the only key to a 2019 Tesla. Mobile dispatch came out, programmed a new smart key in the driveway, and the dealer would have charged twice as much."
Laura H., Cleveland Park

We stage technicians along 16th Street NW and Military Road NW. Most Berkley calls are answered promptly.
Do you work on original hardware in Berkley's mid-century colonials?
Yes. The colonials along Kalmia Road NW and Holly Street NW commonly have brass knob sets and single-cylinder deadbolts from the 1940s and 1950s. We service, rekey, or upgrade them in one visit.
Can you rekey a Berkley home after we move in?
Yes. We rekey every exterior lock on a Berkley property during one appointment. It is the fastest way to ensure previous owners or tenants no longer have access.

Yes. Most Berkley homes have standard door preps compatible with Schlage Encode, Yale Assure, or August smart locks. We match the right model to your door and program it on-site.
