Tips & Tricks

How do I add a proper lock to a wooden gate without splitting the wood or ending up with a wobbly mount?

Wooden gates in AZ expand and contract with temperature swings, so the mounting hardware and lock type need to account for that movement — using a backing plate and the correct lag bolt depth makes a significant difference in long-term stability. At Sundial Locksmith, we've installed gate locks on cedar, redwood, and composite gates across Phoenix and know which hardware holds without damaging the frame. Call (480) 525-7778 to schedule a proper installation you won't have to redo in six months.
