About the service
Professional Garage Door Lock in Burbank
If your house was built south of the 134 in Magnolia Park or in one of the older flat neighborhoods, odds are the garage is detached or sits at the back of a long driveway, and its side door is an afterthought. That little man-door is where trouble walks in. People bolt the big roll-up and ignore the hollow-core door beside it that opens with a shoulder. On the hillside streets up toward the Verdugos, the attached garages are worse, because once someone is inside the garage they are already inside the house.
We get called for the same things over and over in Burbank: a side door with a worn-out knob and no deadbolt, a T-handle that snapped on a tilt-up door, a slide bolt nobody can reach anymore. Different fixes, same goal. We make the garage a real door again, not the soft spot.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Burbank
First thing, we look at how the garage actually connects to the rest of the place. An attached garage in the hills gets treated like an exterior entry to the home, so the side door gets a graded deadbolt and the connecting door into the house gets one too. A detached garage off the alley is a different job. We check whether the door is hollow-core, whether the frame can hold a strike, and whether the existing T-handle and spring latch are even worth keeping before we add hardware.
We cover the whole city, all the 91501 through 91506 zips, the Media District side and the quiet streets back toward Glenoaks. Most garage work is a same-day visit, often a couple of hours. Calls run 24/7, and if you are locked out of the garage at 2am we come out. Reach us at (818) 398-9391.

Common questions
FAQ
What kind of lock should I put on my garage side door?
For the man-door, a graded deadbolt is the answer, not just the knob lock it came with. The trick in Burbank is the door itself. A lot of garages here have a hollow-core or thin steel side door in a soft frame, so we reinforce the strike when we set the deadbolt. If the door flexes when you push it, the best lock in the world won't help until the frame holds.
Can you set up a lock that still works if the power goes out?
Yes, and we get asked this a lot, especially up in the hills where outages and wind events happen. The electric opener does nothing when the power drops. We add a keyed manual lock or an interior slide bolt so you can secure and open the garage by hand, independent of the opener. That way a blackout never leaves the garage hanging open or stuck shut.
Is my attached garage actually a weak entry point?
If it's attached, treat it like a front door. Once someone is in the garage, the connecting door into the house is usually a flimsy interior-grade door with a privacy knob. That's the real risk on a lot of Burbank homes. We deadbolt the garage entry and the door from the garage into the house, so getting into one space doesn't hand over the other.
My T-handle broke, can you just replace that?
Often, yes. On a manual tilt-up or older roll-up, the T-handle and its spring latch are a standard repair, and we usually carry the common ones. Sometimes the handle broke because the latch was binding for years, so we check the whole mechanism while we're there. If the door is fine we replace the handle and you keep the same door. If the latch is shot we sort that too.
