About the service
Professional Gate Lock Service in North Hollywood
A gate lock is the one piece of hardware on your property that never comes inside. In North Hollywood, that means months of dry Valley heat baking the metal, then a few weeks of winter rain that finds every seam. The latch you installed three summers ago is now stiff, gritty, or frozen solid. We work on a lot of these around the NoHo Arts District and the older duplex blocks south of the boulevard, where wrought-iron driveway gates and side pedestrian gates are everywhere.
Most of what we see isn't a broken lock so much as a tired one. Cylinders pack with dust and pollen, the gate frame shifts on its hinges, and suddenly the bolt no longer lines up with the strike. We sort out which part actually failed before quoting anything, because swapping a lock that wasn't the problem just wastes your money.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in North Hollywood
When we get to you, the first thing we check is whether the gate itself still hangs square. A sagging gate that won't latch is usually a hinge or alignment issue, not the lock, so we shim, adjust, or rehang before touching the hardware. Then we look at the lock: a seized keyed cylinder sometimes frees up with cleaning and the right lubricant, while a rust-pitted body needs replacing with a weather-rated unit built for outdoor exposure.
If you're tired of fumbling keys at the curb, we'll talk through a keypad or combination lock sized for a metal gate, including how it mounts and stands up to sun and rain. For shared yards and tenant access, we set up keying or codes everyone can use without handing out a dozen copies. Same-day work is normal here, and we run 24/7 across North Hollywood at (818) 398-9391.

Common questions
FAQ
What makes a gate lock weatherproof for North Hollywood?
Outdoor gate hardware needs a sealed or coated body, stainless or brass internals, and drainage so trapped moisture doesn't sit inside. Our dry summers bake regular zinc locks and the winter rain rusts them, so we fit units actually rated for exterior use rather than a repurposed door lock.
Can you put a keypad on a metal gate?
Yes. We mount keypad and combination locks designed for metal gates, with proper backing so the unit stays solid and the bolt lines up with the frame. We pick a model built to handle direct sun and rain, and we show you how to add or change codes yourself afterward.
Why does my gate lock keep seizing up?
Usually it's grit and pollen packing the cylinder plus a gate that has shifted on its hinges, so the bolt drags against the strike every time. Heat dries out old lubricant too. We clean and re-lube, realign the gate, and if the body is rust-pitted we replace it.
Can tenants share one set of keys or a code for the yard?
Yes. For shared access we either key the gate alike so one key works for everyone, or fit a keypad and hand out a code instead of cutting copies. If someone moves out you just change the code, which is a lot cleaner than chasing down lost keys.
