Licensed, insured and bonded · Family-owned in DC since 2013
Brookland is in Northeast DC around the Brookland–CUA Metro station on the Red Line. Catholic University, the Basilica and the Franciscan Monastery give the area its nickname, “Little Rome.” 12th Street NE is the traditional main street, and Monroe Street Market has added apartments, shops and artist studios beside the Metro.
Away from the station, Brookland is mostly detached wood-frame houses and bungalows with porches and yards, with some rowhouses mixed in.
Houses with porches, side doors and basements
Detached houses give you more doors to think about. We rekey front, side and basement doors to a single key and add deadbolts where a door only has a knob lock. See lock rekey and residential locksmith.
Student rentals near campus
Houses near Catholic University are often rented to groups of students, and keys multiply quickly. We rekey between academic years and replace locks that have had a hard life.
Apartments by the Metro
In the newer buildings around Monroe Street we open unit doors and install smart locks where management allows.
Security upgrades
Homeowners often upgrade locks as part of a larger renovation. We install stronger deadbolts and, if the door is past saving, can advise on door replacement.
Locked out in Brookland
At a house on a quiet street or a rental near campus, we use non-destructive entry to get you back inside.
Why Brookland residents call us
