Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.
Describe the existing hardware, door preparation and exposure to weather. Ask why replacement is proposed, whether repair or rekeying is an alternative and how the new lock fits the door and frame. The written scope can identify the hardware, finish, key arrangement and any joinery or strike work required.
What may be involved
- replacement lockset
- matching cylinder
- strike plate
- latch assembly
- finish-matched fixings
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.
