The garage is the softest entry point on most Vancouver homes. We install and rekey garage door locks on-site — T-handle deadbolts, side-door (man-door) locks, slide locks, and smart entries — all keyed to work with the key you already carry.
A garage that's easy to get into is a house that's easy to get into — the interior man-door often has no deadbolt at all, and a spring-latch overhead door can be lifted or shimmed in seconds. We harden every lock on the garage: the overhead door itself, the walk-in side door, and the connecting door into the house.
When you call us for garage door locks in Vancouver, a mobile technician arrives with the hardware on the truck — T-handle locks, deadbolts, slide bolts, and smart-lock kits — and fits the right solution to your door type in one visit. Overhead sectional doors, tilt-up single-panel doors, and detached-garage walk-in doors all lock differently, and we carry parts for each. If your garage entry key is different from your house key, we rekey the cylinders so a single key opens everything — no more juggling a ring at the door.

| Smart lock on garage walk-in door | $180–$400 |
Ranges cover parts, labour, and the service call. Solid-core and metal-clad doors, multi-point hardware, and higher-security cylinders sit at the upper end. We confirm your door type and hardware on the phone and give you a firm range before we roll — no surprise fees when we arrive.
Overhead tilt-up, sectional, or a detached-garage walk-in door? Snap a photo of the current handle or lock if you can. We match the right hardware and quote a firm range on the call.
A mobile tech heads to your address anywhere across Vancouver. Everything happens in your driveway or lane — no dropping hardware off at a shop, no second trip.
We fit the lock, cut keys, and where you want it, rekey the new cylinder to match your existing house key. Then we test the latch, the throw, and the strike before we leave.
On Vancouver homes — especially the lane-access garages in Kitsilano, the detached garages behind the character houses of Mount Pleasant, and the newer laneway builds through Dunbar and Kerrisdale — the walk-in side door is frequently the weakest lock on the property. It's out of sight from the street, often fitted with only a knob latch, and it leads straight into the garage where tools, bikes, and a second door to the house are waiting. Adding a proper deadbolt to that man-door, and a deadbolt on the connecting door into the house, closes the gap that most break-ins exploit.
We also handle the overhead door itself. Manual tilt-up and older sectional doors take a keyed T-handle or an inside slide lock that pins the door to its track, so it can't be forced up or shimmed off the latch. For west-side properties with detached garages — Point Grey, Dunbar, and Kerrisdale — we key everything alike so you carry one key for the house, the garage side door, and the overhead handle. Fewer keys, one system, no weak link.
Garage-door companies are great for springs, cables, openers, and panels — the mechanical side of the overhead door. But locks, cylinders, keying, and man-door deadbolts are locksmith work. We carry the cylinders, cut and rekey on-site, and can key the garage to match a key you already own — something an opener installer usually can't do. If your issue is a broken spring or a dead opener motor, that's the door company; if it's a lock, a key, or making the whole property open with one key, that's us. Not sure which you need? Call and describe it — we'll point you the right way even if the answer isn't us.
