We’ve worked Clovis long enough to know the difference between a 1960s ranch near Pollasky Avenue and a new build off Locan Avenue in Loma Vista. The locks, the doors, the HOAs, and the weather all hit different depending on where you are in this city. That’s why we stock hardware for both - and why we check CC&Rs before we quote on southeast Clovis jobs.

We’ve served communities across California for over 42 years, and Clovis has been in our rotation since the days when Old Town was mostly ag supply stores and the northeast was still orchards. Our technicians know the local streets, the HOA landscapes, and the seasonal patterns that mess with locks here.
Clovis customers call us back because we quote flat on the phone - no bait, no switch. A square deal: the price we quote is the price you pay. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians show ID at every door, and every job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise - backed in writing, no paperwork, no arguing. If it’s not right, we come back.
Calls are answered by a live person, 24/7. Nights, weekends, holidays. No voicemail trees, no callback queues. When you’re standing outside a door in Tule fog at 10 PM, you need a voice, not a recording.
We know the fastest routes into Clovis from our dispatch points, and we understand the parking and access realities - alley-load garages in townhome clusters, gated community entry protocols, the narrow driveways off Temperance Avenue. We plan for it so you don’t wait longer than necessary.
Our Lock Installation & Rekey Services in Clovis
Smart Lock Installation
Smart lock installation in Clovis runs $220-$380 for most residential retrofits, including Wi-Fi bridge setup and app pairing. The newer tract homes in 93619 - Loma Vista, Harlan Ranch, the communities off Fowler Avenue - often come with builder-grade Kwikset or Schlage deadbolts prepped for smart upgrades. We remove the old cylinder, install the new smart deadbolt, and make sure your phone, your keypad code, and your physical key override all work before we leave. For homes with HOA-controlled exterior hardware, we verify finish compliance first. Satin nickel and aged bronze are the usual mandates in southeast Clovis. We carry both in stock.
Keyless Entry
Keyless entry systems in Clovis homes cost $180-$320 installed, depending on whether we’re adding a standalone keypad or integrating with an existing multi-point lock. Many of the 2000s-era homes in east 93612 and 93619 have fiberglass entry doors with standard 2-1/8″ bore prep - straightforward retrofits. Older ranch homes near Old Town Clovis sometimes need door reinforcement or strike-plate relocation, especially if the wood frame has shifted from decades of summer heat cycles. We assess the prep, quote the full job flat, and install hardware that fits the door and the neighborhood’s look.
Keypad Lock
Keypad lock installation in Clovis ranges $160-$290. These are popular for side doors, garage entries, and rental properties near Clovis Community College. We program up to 25 user codes on most models, show you how to add and delete codes, and leave written instructions. For rental owners in the older northwest neighborhoods around 93611, keypad locks cut down on rekeying between tenants. One call, new code, done.
Biometric Lock
Biometric locks - fingerprint entry - run $280-$450 installed in Clovis. These suit homeowners who want keyless convenience without remembering codes. We install them on standard prepped doors and can adapt some older setups with reinforcing plates. The technology has gotten reliable enough that we back our biometric installs under the same 90-Day Done Right Promise as everything else.
Electronic Lock
Electronic locks with card or fob entry are common in Clovis’s small commercial spaces - the medical offices near Herndon Avenue, the retail strips along Shaw Avenue. Installation runs $200-$400 per door depending on access-control integration. We service standalone units and can advise on whether your setup needs a full system or just a single-door upgrade.
Key Duplication
Key duplication in Clovis is $8-$18 per key for standard residential blanks, $25-$45 for high-security keys like Medeco or Mul-T-Lock. We cut on-site with code-calibrated duplicators, not hand-filed guesses. For Clovis homeowners with restricted keyways - common in the newer HOA communities - we verify authorization before cutting. It’s a small step that prevents headaches later.

Trusted Brands We Service in Clovis
We install and service Schlage, Medeco, Yale, Baldwin, Kwikset, Mul-T-Lock, Abloy, and Sargent - the full range, not just what fits our van. For Clovis customers, this matters because southeast HOAs often specify Schlage B-series or Baldwin hardware in their CC&Rs. We stock satin nickel and aged bronze finishes for those communities, and we can order oil-rubbed bronze or polished brass when the architecture calls for it. Most standard deadbolts and smart locks are available same-day. Specialty orders typically arrive in 2-3 business days, and we’ll tell you that upfront when we quote.
Common Lock Installation & Rekey Problems We See in Clovis Homes
- Deadbolt binding in summer heat. Wood door frames on older ranch homes near Old Town Clovis expand measurably when temperatures hit 105°F and above. The deadbolt throw no longer aligns with the strike plate. We see this every June through September. The fix is door adjustment and strike relocation, not just a new lock.
- HOA non-compliance on hardware finishes. Homeowners in 93619 master-planned communities buy oil-rubbed bronze deadbolts online, then learn their CC&Rs require satin nickel. We carry HOA-common finishes and check guidelines before ordering, so the job doesn’t stall halfway.
- Corroded brass cylinders after fog season. Tule fog brings weeks of near-100% humidity to northwest Clovis. North- and east-facing doors on 1950s homes get it worst. Brass cylinders corrode, tumblers stick, keys wear faster. We replace with nickel-silver or stainless-steel cylinders that hold up better.
- Builder-grade rekeys that miss the garage. New-construction buyers in southeast Clovis often rekey the front door but forget the side garage entry or the community gate fob. We walk the full property and quote everything that needs changing.

FAQs - Lock Installation & Rekey in Clovis
Yes - many southeast Clovis master-planned communities, especially in 93619, mandate satin nickel or aged bronze finishes and sometimes restrict brands to Schlage or Baldwin in their CC&Rs. We check these guidelines before quoting and carry common HOA finishes in stock. Call (833) 294-4584 and we’ll verify your community’s requirements.
Yes - summer temperatures above 105°F cause wood door frames to expand, which can bind deadbolts and misalign strikes within weeks of installation. On older ranch homes near Old Town Clovis, we often adjust the door or relocate the strike plate as part of the install to prevent summer binding. We account for this in our flat quote.
Yes - we program rolling-code remotes for alley-load garage doors in Clovis townhome communities, including the Loma Vista area and similar developments off Locan Avenue and Temperance Avenue. We rekeyed a 2020-built tract home in Loma Vista where the HOA requires satin nickel Schlage B660 deadbolts; the homeowner had bought Kwikset, so we swapped in compliant hardware and programmed two rolling-code remotes for the alley-load garage door. Call (833) 294-4584 to schedule.
Tule fog deposits moisture on north- and east-facing entry doors for weeks at a time, corroding unprotected brass cylinders and causing tumbler sticking. This is most common on 1950s-era homes in northwest Clovis. We replace corroded cylinders with nickel-silver or stainless-steel versions that resist fog-season damage. Call for a free inspection - estimates are free.
Yes - new-construction rekeying is a significant part of our Clovis workload, especially in 93619 communities like Harlan Ranch and Loma Vista. We rekey all entry points, including side garage doors and community gate fobs that buyers sometimes overlook. We also verify HOA hardware compliance so your locks pass final inspection. Call (833) 294-4584 for a flat quote before closing.
