What Our Door Hardware Repair Service Covers in San Rafael
Door hardware repair from Chida Locksmith keeps San Rafael doors opening, closing, latching, and locking the way they should. We repair and replace door closers, panic bars and exit devices, commercial latches and locks, storefront hardware, and we extract broken keys from cylinders and ignitions.
When a door slams, drifts, sticks, or will not latch, it is more than annoying — it is a security and safety issue. Chida Locksmith repairs the full range of residential and commercial door hardware across San Rafael, from a homeowner's sticky deadbolt to a storefront's failing closer or a warehouse's exit device.

We give honest assessments — if a lock can be repaired or rekeyed instead of replaced, we tell you. We stand behind our parts and labor with a workmanship guarantee.

We arrive in clearly marked vehicles, wear identification, and explain exactly what we are doing and why.
