Locksmith Service Around Southwest Federal Center

Federal Center SW Metro station is at 401 3rd Street SW. D Street SW and Independence Avenue SW are useful references for the surrounding office corridor. Give the actual building address and entrance when arranging a visit; a station name alone does not identify the property.

Office Doors and Shared Access

For a suite lockout, identify the suite, the existing lock, and the person authorized to approve entry. For a common lobby or controlled entrance, include the property manager or security contact. An individual tenant may not control shared doors or the building’s access system.

A hardware repair should account for the door, frame, latch, closer, and any required exit function. Send photographs of both sides of the opening and the edge of the door. If there is an access reader, identify the system and the contact responsible for its configuration.
