Waterfront home, dock-gate lockout after a boat trip
Saturday evening at Tropic Isle - homeowner returning from a boat trip locked out at the dock gate (cylinder seized from salt corrosion). Got into the house through the front door but couldn't put the boat keys back in the dock-side equipment locker.
We rolled a truck, found the dock-gate cylinder beyond salvageable, swapped to a marine-grade PVD brass cylinder, re-keyed to her existing brass key. 50 minutes.
Dock-gate cylinder corrosion is the most common Tropic Isle lockout cause. We default to marine-grade PVD replacements on every Tropic Isle install.
