Securing your home swiftly after a storm or break-in is our top priority. We know that a door that won't lock is an open invitation, so our immediate task is to ensure your home is secure by nightfall.
We fit either a temporary or permanent ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 or Grade 2 deadbolt into a serviceable frame. If needed, we reinforce or replace a torn-out strike plate with a heavy-duty ANSI strike, using long screws into the stud for maximum security.
For doors or windows that can't be locked yet, we board them up to prevent entry. Our goal on the first visit is always a home you can lock and leave overnight.
We provide a clear scope and quote before starting any work, ensuring transparency. Full frame repair or door replacement can follow, but we never leave a home unsecured after dark. Your safety is our commitment.

From our Orlando base we cover Central Florida with fast response — Winter Park, Kissimmee, Altamonte Springs, Lake Nona, Windermere, Oviedo, Apopka and Conway.
Sliding patio and rear doors, particularly in areas like Windermere and Dr. Phillips, often serve as weak points in home security.
These doors, while offering beautiful views and easy access to outdoor spaces, can be vulnerable to both storm damage and break-ins. The large glass panes can shatter during severe weather, leaving homes exposed to the elements and potential intruders.
We understand that the convenience of sliding doors can sometimes overshadow the security concerns they present. Many homeowners in these upscale neighborhoods appreciate the aesthetics but may not realize the risks involved.
Ensuring these entry points are secure is essential, especially with the frequent storms we experience.
Regular maintenance of the door tracks and locks can prevent sticking and misalignment, which often lead to vulnerabilities.
We recommend reinforcing glass and locking mechanisms to safeguard your home without compromising style.
Let's prioritize your safety by addressing these potential weak points.
Although it might seem that a sturdy lock is enough, most break-ins exploit weaknesses in the door frame, not the lock itself. In Orlando, residential break-ins often occur when a strike plate tears out of soft jamb wood, even as the deadbolt holds.
To prevent this, we recommend reinforcing with an ANSI strike-plate. Anchoring a heavy-gauge strike box with 3-inch screws into the wall stud ensures that the next forceful attempt meets solid structure.
Upgrading to an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 deadbolt, adding a secondary deadbolt, or opting for a longer bolt throw are essential steps. For outswing doors, reinforcing the hinge side adds another layer of security.
In historic homes in Winter Park or College Park, we discreetly fit reinforcements to maintain original aesthetics. For estates in Dr. Phillips or Windermere, a UL437 high-security cylinder offers enhanced protection against picking, drilling, and bumping.
Our goal is to make sure your door withstands the next attempt.
Fixed quote at the door — no trip fee. Heavy-duty, code-compliant locks fitted the same day across Winter Park, College Park, Conway, Lake Nona and the wider Orlando metro.
For insurance documentation, clear and thorough records are essential. After a break-in or storm damage, we make sure to capture a detailed photo record of everything, from the forced door to the wind-damaged frame, before and after repairs. This includes the torn strike, pried patio track, or corroded cylinders.
Our written scope outlines what was replaced and upgraded, ensuring you have the documentation needed for a claim with your Florida insurer.
Particularly during hurricane season, having a documented before-and-after of the damage and the ANSI/BHMA-graded hardware fitted makes the claims process smoother.
Whether it's a rental or an HOA property in areas like Dr. Phillips or Windermere, our records also help in coordinating with landlords or community managers.
While we don't offer claim advice, our extensive paperwork and photos mean you're equipped to file without needing another visit.
We work out of the Orlando area and reach most of the metro in 15-30 minutes. Winter Park, College Park and Conway are quickest; Windermere, Kissimmee and the outer suburbs run longer. Late-night calls are usually faster with lighter traffic.
No trip fee and no hidden charges. You get a fixed quote at the door before any work starts — and if you decide not to go ahead, you don't pay.
Yes — we answer the phone 24 hours a day, every day, including holidays. Someone real picks up, not an automated queue.
In almost every case, yes. We pick or bypass the lock rather than drill it. Drilling is a last resort for seized or high-security locks, and we replace the lock as part of the job.
Photo ID and proof you belong at the property — a driver's license plus a utility bill, lease or the HOA gate attendant's confirmation. It's standard practice and Florida liability requires it.
Securing your home against future break-ins is essential, especially after experiencing one. We understand the importance of taking steps to prevent another intrusion.
First, consider rekeying all exterior locks. This ensures that old keys won't work if they're in the wrong hands. Next, focus on reinforcing door frames and strikes, not just the lock itself. This is significant because break-ins in Orlando often exploit weak frames.
