Break-In at Your Garage? We’ll Replace the Locks Immediately – Day or Night

A break-in is more than a violation of space—it shatters your sense of safety. Whether your garage was forcibly opened, picked, pried, or compromised electronically, the first thing you need is a new, secure locking system—and you need it now.

That’s why 313 Garage Doors offers 24/7 emergency lock change services for homes and businesses throughout Metro Detroit. We understand how urgent this moment is, and our mission is to respond immediately, reinforce your garage door security, and restore your peace of mind—within hours, not days.


Why a Lock Change After a Break-In Is Non-Negotiable

Even if nothing appears missing, or the door still opens and closes, once a garage lock has been tampered with, it’s no longer safe.

Here’s why an emergency lock change is critical:

  • Burglars may return, especially if entry was easy

  • Spare keys may have been taken or copied

  • Smart opener codes may have been intercepted or cloned

  • Locks or mechanisms may be partially damaged, weakening future resistance

  • Insurance may not cover future incidents if the security wasn’t promptly upgraded

We don’t just fix what’s broken—we restore trust and safety in your entryway.


Common Break-In Scenarios We Respond To

Break-ins vary, but the need for immediate lock change and system reinforcement stays the same. Some of the most common emergency calls we receive include:

Residential Break-Ins:

  • Forced entry through the side door or garage panel

  • Lock picked or bypassed

  • Smart garage opener hacked or remote stolen

  • Visible pry marks or kicked-in sections

Commercial Garage Break-Ins:

  • Dock doors forced open

  • Rolling steel doors tampered with

In all cases, we’re prepared to replace, reprogram, or upgrade the locking and entry systems the same day.
