The local picture in Napa
Old Town and Fuller Park have many Victorian homes. The Napa River runs through downtown.
The Oxbow Public Market sits along the river. Homes that have changed hands a few times may have a mix of brands, and keying every door alike is a common request. Silverado has a resort and golf course.
Winter dampness can swell wood doors, so a lock that worked in summer may stick by January. The 2014 South Napa earthquake damaged many older buildings downtown.
Permits, licenses and your utility
California licenses locksmiths through the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services. Renters should check with the landlord before changing or rekeying locks, since many leases require it. If you share a building entrance, mention it, since common doors are usually the landlord's or the association's call.
A large flood control project reshaped the river through downtown. Napa is the county seat of Napa County. In short, water comes from the City of Napa, sewer service from the Napa Sanitation District, and permits come from the City of Napa Building Division.
