About the service
Professional Gate Lock Service in Pacoima
A gate lock in Pacoima lives a hard life. It sits out in the open through long dry summers and the dust that blows across the northeast Valley, then takes a few hard winter rains, and nobody oils it. So one morning the key won't turn, or the bolt grinds halfway and stops. On the older single-family streets here, a lot of folks have a metal driveway gate and a separate pedestrian gate, and they almost never share the same problem at the same time.
That's the part most people miss. The lock isn't always the issue. A gate that has sagged on its hinges, or a post that has shifted, throws the bolt out of line with the strike, and the hardware takes the blame. We come out, work the actual gate you're standing at, and tell you straight whether it's the lock or the frame around it.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Pacoima
First thing, we check whether the gate even closes square. We swing it, watch where the bolt lands against the strike, and feel for binding. A sagging gate that won't latch usually needs the alignment fixed before any lock will behave, and we'll say so instead of selling you hardware that won't help. If the lock is just seized from rust, sometimes it frees up; often it's cheaper to swap it for one rated for outdoor weather.
We carry keyed gate locks and keypad units on the truck, so most jobs finish in one visit. If you've got a back-house or tenants sharing the yard, we can key everything alike or set up a keypad so nobody's chasing copies. We cover Pacoima and the surrounding northeast Valley, and we run 24/7 at (818) 398-9391 when a gate locks you out at a bad hour.

Common questions
FAQ
What kind of gate lock holds up to the weather out here?
For an exposed gate in Pacoima you want hardware rated for outdoor use, with a coated or stainless body and a bolt that won't pit when the dust and summer heat give way to a few rainy weeks. We carry weather-rated keyed and keypad locks and pick one to fit your gate's gap and post, not a generic indoor deadbolt that rusts in a season.
Can you put a keypad on my metal gate?
Yes. Keypads work on most metal driveway and pedestrian gates. We confirm the gate panel and post can carry the unit, mount it so the wires and battery stay protected from weather, and set your code. It's a popular fix for back-houses and shared yards where everyone was juggling keys before.
Why does my gate lock keep seizing?
Two usual reasons out here: rust from sitting in the open, and a gate that's no longer hanging square. Dust works into a dry cylinder and the dry-then-rainy cycle corrodes it. If the gate has sagged, the bolt is also fighting the strike every turn, which wears the lock fast. We check both before deciding to clean, lubricate, or replace it.
Can tenants share keys for the same yard gate?
We can key several locks alike so one key opens the yard gate and, say, a back unit, or rekey the gate when a tenant moves out so old keys stop working. For a property with a few renters sharing access, a keypad is often simpler since you just hand out a code instead of cutting copies.
