Plate 01 · Brookland & Michigan Park
Detached houses
Brookland and Michigan Park have more detached homes than most of the city, many with porches, side doors and detached garages. The lock work: getting several doors onto one key, adding deadbolts where only a knob lock exists, replacing rusted padlocks on sheds and garages.
Near the Metro
Around the Brookland–CUA station and the Monroe Street area, newer apartment buildings bring condo and apartment lockouts, plus small-business lock work in the shops and artist studios along the arts walk.
Student rentals
Houses near Catholic University and Trinity are often rented to students. Landlords rekey between leases; shared houses may need bedroom locks.
Further east in Woodridge and Langdon, the pattern is similar: single-family homes with yards and garages.

Rhode Island Avenue and South Dakota Avenue carry most of the traffic here. If you're near the Metro or a busy commercial strip, tell dispatch the nearest intersection.
The old 20018 and 20064 pages now point to this hub; campus buildings at Catholic University go through the university.
Brookland's frame houses often have storm doors in front of the main door, with their own small latch locks. Those latches aren't security locks, but keeping them working matters in winter. A locksmith can usually adjust or replace one on the same visit as other work.
Detached garages on the alleys behind Brookland and Michigan Park blocks often have a padlocked hasp or a roll-up door with a T-handle lock. Both can be replaced or keyed to match the house.
