Forest City has no city hall and little fanfare — just ranch homes, garden apartments, and small strips spread across the SR-436 and SR-434 crossings. Much of the housing dates to the 60s and 70s, and its hardware has the years to prove it. The work is unglamorous and steady: rekeys, apartment lockouts, and cylinders too worn to save.
- Rekeying the older ranch homes
- Lockouts at the apartment complexes
- Worn-cylinder replacement
- Rental and small-shop lock changes
