About the service
Professional Gate Lock Service in Glendale
A gate lock lives outside year-round, and Glendale gives it a hard time. Summer afternoons in the flats near the 134 push the metal hot enough to throw a latch out of square, then the cooler nights up toward the foothills bring dew that works into the cylinder. A few seasons of that and the key starts grinding. We see it constantly on the older steel gates around the 91205 and 91206 blocks, where the original hardware was never sealed for the sun it gets.
Most of the gates we open weren't broken on purpose. The lock seized, the gate dropped a quarter inch on its hinge, or a tenant lost the only copy. We handle keyed gate locks, keypad units that skip keys entirely, and the alignment work that makes either one actually close. If you share a yard, we sort out who holds what.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Glendale
First thing, we figure out whether the lock failed or the gate did. A sagging gate that won't latch is a hinge and alignment problem masquerading as a lock problem, and swapping the cylinder won't fix it. We check the swing, the strike, and the post before we touch the hardware. If it's genuinely seized, we'll usually free a salvageable cylinder on the spot; if it's rusted through, we show you what's worth replacing and why.
We carry weather-rated keyed locks and outdoor keypad units for metal gates, so most jobs finish in one trip across Glendale, whether you're off Brand near downtown or up in the hill streets. We're available around the clock for lockouts. For installs and rekeys we'll give you a flat number before any work starts, and if you've got tenants we set up keying so the right people get in. Reach us at (818) 398-9391.

Common questions
FAQ
Will an outdoor gate lock actually hold up to the weather here?
Yes, if it's the right unit. Standard interior-grade locks corrode fast on a Glendale gate because of the hot-day, damp-night cycle. We install weather-rated keyed locks and sealed outdoor keypads built for exposed metal, and we add a little protection at the cylinder so dew doesn't creep in and seize it again.
Can you put a keypad on a metal gate so we stop dealing with keys?
We do this all the time. Most steel and wrought-iron gates around Glendale take an outdoor keypad fine; we mount it to suit the gate's frame and wiring or battery setup. You get a code instead of a key, which is handy when several people use the same gate and copies keep going missing.
Why does my gate lock keep seizing up?
Two reasons, usually. One is the weather: sun heats the metal all day, then night moisture settles into the cylinder, and over seasons that grit and corrosion bind it. The other is alignment, when a gate sags on its hinge and forces the bolt against the strike. We check both, because a fresh lock on a sagging gate just seizes all over again.
We rent out a unit and need shared gate keys for tenants, can you handle that?
Yes. We rekey the gate so you control how many copies exist and who has them, and cut the exact number you need. If a tenant moves out, we can rekey again so the old key stops working without replacing the whole lock. For multiple gates we can also key them to match.
