Locksmith in 22030: City of Fairfax and Old Town

Houses around Old Town Fairfax range from older homes to recent townhouse developments, and the locks vary just as much. Older doors sometimes carry mortise locks, where the whole mechanism sits in a pocket cut into the door edge. They can usually be repaired or rekeyed rather than ripped out, which keeps the door intact. Newer homes tend to have builder-grade knob locks and deadbolts that are worth upgrading on exterior doors.

If you've just bought in 22030, the most useful first job is a rekey. We can set every exterior door to one key while we're there.

With George Mason University's main campus in 22030, a lot of property in the area is rented by the room or the year. Turnover means keys go missing. Landlords here often ask us to rekey between tenants, fit keypad deadbolts so codes can be changed instead of keys, or set up a simple master key system so the owner holds one key for every unit.
