San Anselmo Ave is a small shopping street with glass doors in wood and aluminum frames, antique dealers, cafes and a hardware store, and the calls are what a street like that produces: a cylinder that has outlasted three tenants, a rear door onto the parking lot that stopped latching, a pair of doors that no longer meet in the middle. Storefront work is $155 to $469 and a business lockout at opening is $135 to $249. The lots behind the avenue hold the cars, and a car lockout there is $99 to $195, with a fob programmed at $105 to $199 beside the car.
The flat streets along the creek are houses from the 1900s through the 1930s, many with a mortise set on the front door, a porch, a side gate onto the drive and a garage at the back of the lot. A rekey is $26 to $43 per cylinder and a worn case replaced behind the original plate is $119 to $319 per door. Lockouts are $125 to $215 and start at the gate or the porch door. Houses along the creek have been through high water, and hardware on the ground floor that went under once is stiff for years afterward; cleaning and rekeying is tried before anything is replaced.
Up the slopes toward the seminary the houses are larger, set above the street with a stair and sometimes a gate, and the van stops at the bottom and the case goes up. Arrival is about twenty-two minutes by way of Sir Francis Drake Blvd or Red Hill Ave, and the estimate on the call reflects the hour at the Hub. The figure, with the $89 service call inside it, is named on the call, and evening calls carry $55 between 8pm and midnight and $90 overnight.
Say whether the address is a shop on San Anselmo Ave, a house on the flat streets by the creek or a house up the hill, and give a cross street. Several street names here run on across the line from the neighboring towns, and the number alone is slow to find.
FAQ
What people ask about San Anselmo
The house is along the creek and went under once. Does the hardware have to be replaced?+
Not usually. Ground-floor locks that have been under water stay stiff for years, but the cause is silt and corrosion in the plug rather than a broken mechanism. They are stripped, cleaned and rekeyed first, and replaced only where the plug is pitted through. Say which doors were affected and how long ago, so the right approach is planned.
Our shop is on San Anselmo Ave and the rear door onto the lot has stopped latching. Which door is cheaper to put right?+
The rear one, nearly always. On these buildings it is a deadlatch that no longer meets its strike because the frame has moved, and it is adjusted rather than replaced. The avenue frontage is the expensive door, because the glass and the frame are old and anything fitted to them has to suit what is already there.
Street names here carry on across the town line. Does that slow the van down?+
It can, which is why a cross street is asked for rather than a number alone. Say whether the address is on the flat streets by the creek, among the shops at the Hub, or up the slope toward the seminary. With that the van comes in on the right road and the window in your text holds.
