What we see in Normal Heights & Kensington
Kensington is one of San Diego's best-preserved historic neighborhoods, full of 1920s and 1930s Spanish Revival homes with arched doorways, wrought iron and original hardware. We rekey and repair that hardware rather than replace it, and when a homeowner wants a proper deadbolt or a smart lock we install it in a finish that suits the door. Normal Heights, to the west, mixes Craftsman bungalows with apartment buildings along the side streets off Adams, which means plenty of rekeys, lockouts and rental turnover work.
Adams Avenue is the spine of both neighborhoods: coffee shops, restaurants, vintage stores, bars, music venues and the annual street fair. Small businesses here call us for rekeys after staff changes, storefront lock repair, exit hardware and simple keying systems so the owner and the morning crew don't share one key.
Car lockouts happen along Adams Avenue and in the residential streets where street parking is tight and people are in a hurry. We reach the 92116 quickly via I-8 from Ocean Beach.
