Lock Replacement in Double Bay
Replacement is not the default answer — sometimes a lock simply needs servicing. But when a cylinder is worn beyond reliable use, a keyway is damaged, or hardware no longer suits the door, replacement is the correct call. We match new locks to the door in front of us, not to a catalogue preference.

Local context
Why Double Bay is different
Many Double Bay doors are originals — beautiful, heavy and not always compatible with modern cylinder standards. Replacing a lock on a period door is a fitting exercise as much as a security one, and it is worth doing properly the first time.
