Williamson County Door and Frame Reinforcement

Stronghold Reinforce: steel jamb, hinge, and lock-area reinforcement on exterior and interior doors.

Door reinforcement is the highest-return security upgrade on most Georgetown homes because it fixes the part that fails first. A standard exterior door fails at the frame, not the lock: the strike plate is held by two three-quarter-inch screws in soft pine, and one kick splits the jamb with the deadbolt still locked.

What door reinforcement does

Our reinforcement technology spreads the force of a kick along the whole frame instead of letting it concentrate at the latch. Hinge shields anchor the other side of the door into the stud, door shields wrap the lock area so the edge cannot split, and a pry shield closes the gap a crowbar needs.

Installation takes under an hour per door with no door removal and no visible change from the street. Every installation follows the manufacturer’s written instructions, which is a condition of the manufacturer’s $500 performance guarantee against kick-in.

We install only the best USA-made hardware, proven on national television and used by property managers across the country to secure vacant homes.

What it does and does not do

It raises the force and time needed to kick or shoulder a door open. It will not stop cutting, prying through glass, or a failed lock. However, we teach you how to defend against a failed lock in your Stronghold Report.

After installation, we return thirty days later for our 30-Day Check to make sure every upgrade is properly installed and working.

Questions we get about this

Will reinforcement work on my door?

It fits solid wood, fiberglass, and steel doors up to 1-3/4 inches thick with a wood frame. Hollow-core doors and badly rotted frames get a different recommendation, which the assessment explains.

Does it change how the door looks?

From outside, nothing changes. Inside, low-profile powder-coated steel in white, aged bronze, or satin nickel sits against the jamb and around the lock edge.

Is it as good as a new security door?

It is a different tool. Reinforcement makes an ordinary door far harder to kick in. A forced-entry-rated door holds against a timed attack with tools and belongs on the house that needs it.

Do you rekey locks?

Rekeying and cylinder work are regulated locksmith services in Texas. We coordinate them on the same visit when you want them.
