About the service
Professional Garage Door Lock in Granada Hills
Most Granada Hills homes here in the north end of the Valley were built with an attached two-car garage, and that garage usually has a plain side door into the yard plus an interior door straight into the kitchen or hallway. People lock the front of the house carefully and then leave that side door on a builder-grade knob with no deadbolt. A garage is a door, not a wall.
We get called for the broken T-handle on the overhead door that won't turn anymore, the side door someone can shoulder open, and the request for a slide bolt so the panel can't be jimmied off its track. Older two-story homes up toward the foothills and the flatter tracts down near the 118 all share the same weak point. We treat the garage as a real entry, because to a burglar walking the alley at night, that's exactly what it is.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Granada Hills
When we pull up we walk the garage with you and look at all three openings, not just the one you called about: the overhead door and its T-handle, the pedestrian side door, and the interior door into the living space. We check whether the side door even has a deadbolt, how the strike sits in the jamb, and whether the slide track on the roll-up can be pinned. Half the fixes are cheaper than people expect.
From there we'll rekey or replace the side-door cylinder, swap a stripped or snapped T-handle, add a flush slide bolt to the overhead, or set a real deadbolt with a long screw into the framing. We carry common T-handles and residential deadbolts on the truck, so most jobs finish the same visit. We answer the phone around the clock at (818) 398-9391, and night calls in Granada Hills are normal for us, not an emergency surcharge surprise.

Common questions
FAQ
What lock should I put on the garage side door?
A proper grade-2 deadbolt, not just the entry knob the builder left. That side door usually opens into the yard or the alley where nobody can see it being worked on, so it deserves the same deadbolt you'd trust on a back door. We set the strike with three-inch screws into the stud so it can't be kicked off the jamb.
How do I lock the garage if the power is out?
The opener motor is not a lock, and when the power drops your overhead door can often be slid up from outside with a coat hanger on the release. We install a manual slide bolt or cane bolt on the inside of the panel so you can throw it by hand. During a Valley outage you just drop the bolt and the door physically can't be lifted.
Is my attached garage really a weak entry point?
Usually yes. Most Granada Hills homes connect the garage straight into the kitchen or hall, and that interior door is often a hollow slab on a knob with no deadbolt. Get past the garage and you're inside the house. We secure both the garage's outer doors and that interior door so it isn't a free pass.
Can you replace a broken garage T-handle?
Yes, that's a common call. The T-handle on a manual overhead door strips or snaps from years of turning, and then the door won't latch at all. We carry standard residential T-handles on the truck, match the spindle length to your door, and most of the time have it turning and locking again before we leave.
