Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.
Identify the storefront or office hardware, frame type and signs of wear or forced damage. Ask whether the issue involves the lock, strike, door alignment or related components. Review the proposed replacement specification, compatibility with the key system, any additional door work and the checks included in the quote.
What may be involved
- narrow-stile or mortise lock
- hookbolt or deadlatch
- commercial cylinder
- keeper and strike
Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.
LOCAL RESEARCH / Potrero Hill
Housing context
Planning identifies this area among neighborhoods containing RH-1 one-family residential zoning, so individual-home hardware is part of the local mix.
Source ↗Local context
The Showplace Square/Potrero Hill Area Plan describes historic brick buildings and production businesses in Showplace Square, mixed-use development at the base of the hill, and a predominantly residential character on Potrero Hill. These adjoining settings do not establish the age or condition of a property’s equipment.
