Oakmont is its own place, a 55+ community laid out along Oakmont Dr where Santa Rosa meets Sonoma Valley. The homes are single-level and the hardware requests are specific. Round knobs get replaced with lever handles that a hand with arthritis can work. Deadbolts get swapped for models with a larger thumbturn and a lighter throw. A keypad lock with big buttons replaces the spare under the pot. Lever and deadbolt replacement runs $89–$245 per door, and the tech can bring two or three lever styles to try on the door before anything is drilled. Rekeys after a home changes hands run $19–$34 per cylinder.
Thirty minutes is the honest estimate, the longest inside the city, because Hwy 12 east of Calistoga Rd is two lanes with few passing points and Oakmont itself is large. Most residents prefer a scheduled daytime visit, and that is how most Oakmont work is booked, with the name of the technician and an arrival window sent by text beforehand. Lockouts still happen, often a garage entry door that locked while someone was getting the mail, and a house lockout at $99–$175 opens without damage. The golf courses produce a few keys locked in carts and cars each month. Night calls are answered like anywhere else; the $60 overnight rate applies after midnight.
Say which Oakmont entrance is closest and whether a neighbor or family member should be texted as well, since many residents like a second person to know when the tech is arriving.

FAQ
Asked in Oakmont
Can the tech bring more than one lever style to try?+
Yes. Two or three levers come out of the van and go against the door before anything is drilled, because how a handle sits in the hand is the whole reason for the change. Replacement runs $89–$245 per door, and the deadbolt above it can be swapped for a lighter throw on the same visit.
Why is Oakmont the longest drive on the list?+
Hwy 12 east of Calistoga Rd narrows to two lanes with few places to pass, and Oakmont is large enough that which entrance you are near genuinely matters. Thirty minutes is the real figure. Most residents book a daytime slot instead, and the arrival window arrives by text well before the van sets out.
Can my daughter get the arrival text as well?+
Yes. Give a second number on the call and the technician's name and window go to both phones. Plenty of Oakmont households prefer someone else to know who is at the door and when. It costs nothing, and it turns the identity check on the doorstep into a formality rather than a worry.
