Hardware tiers we stock for WaterSound
Every mobile unit carries three tiers of hardware for lock rekey work in WaterSound: entry-level builder-grade, ANSI Grade 2 mid-market, and ANSI Grade 1 commercial. We tell you on the call which tier matches your situation. For coastal addresses on the south side of Santa Rosa Beach, we recommend Grade 1 hardware with marine-grade finishes — salt air shortens the life of standard builder hardware to five to seven years, where a properly specified Grade 1 install lasts twelve to fifteen.
The cylinders we use are bump-resistant by default on entry doors, with optional restricted-keyway upgrades for clients who want key duplication controlled at the locksmith level rather than at any hardware store. For lock rekey jobs that involve rekeying multiple doors to a single master, we set up the pinning chart on-site and label every cylinder so the property owner has a record of the system.
