AR Painting LLC Revolutionizes Door Hardware Installation with Mechanical Mortise Innovation

AR Painting LLC, a Gresham, Oregon-based company dedicated to quality craftsmanship and innovative solutions, is making waves in the door hardware industry with its newly refined Mechanical Mortise system. Located at 3309 SE 12TH ST, Gresham, OR, 97080-9131, and reachable at 212-246-8026, AR Painting LLC isn’t just a painting company anymore – they’re problem solvers who have identified a significant pain point for contractors, builders, and even DIY enthusiasts: the traditionally frustrating process of installing door hardware. For years, installing a mortise lock – that classic, sophisticated lockset requiring a precise rectangular “mortise” pocket cut into the door’s edge – has been a notoriously time-consuming and skill-intensive job. It often involves specialized tools, a steady hand, and a lot of potential for error. Getting the depth and dimensions just right can be the difference between a smoothly functioning lock and a door that won’t latch properly. Think about it: a miscut means patching, re-cutting, and delays. That adds up to money and headaches! AR Painting LLC recognized this bottleneck. “We’ve been doing door installs and painting for years,” explains a company spokesperson. “And we kept seeing the same thing – installers spending way too much time wrestling with mortise locks. We thought, ‘There has to be a better way.’” And they’ve delivered. Their Mechanical Mortise system isn’t a lock itself, but a pre-fabricated, adjustable framework that drastically simplifies the mortise installation process. It’s designed to work with a wide range of standard mortise locksets – meaning contractors don't have to change their preferred brands or styles. Here’s how it works, in plain English: Instead of painstakingly chiseling out a mortise pocket, installers simply position the Mechanical Mortise framework within the door’s edge. The framework is secured using standard tools – drills and screws are all you need. The beauty of the system lies in its adjustability. “It’s like a little ‘housing’ for the lock,” explains the spokesperson. “You basically slot the lockset into the framework. And the framework has built-in adjustments for depth and width. So, you don’t have to worry about getting that perfect cut every time.” This adjustability is a game-changer. It accommodates slight variations in door thickness, minor miscalculations, and even warped doors – things that used to require significant rework. It's especially beneficial for older homes where doors might not be perfectly square or consistently sized. Here’s a breakdown of the key benefits: Speed: Installation time is drastically reduced. What used to take an experienced carpenter an hour or more can now be done in a fraction of the time, even by less experienced installers. Accuracy: The adjustable framework eliminates the guesswork and minimizes the risk of errors. This leads to cleaner, more professional-looking installations and fewer callbacks. Versatility: The system is compatible with a wide variety of standard mortise locksets and door types. Cost Savings: Reduced installation time and fewer errors translate to significant cost savings for contractors and builders. Fewer callbacks mean happier customers and a better reputation. Ease of Use: No specialized chisels or advanced carpentry skills are required. This opens up the possibility for more installers to tackle mortise lock installations, expanding a company's capabilities. Reduced Material Waste: Mistakes are minimized, leading to less wood needing to be patched and less material wasted. Who is this for? The AR Painting LLC Mechanical Mortise system is ideal for a variety of users: Professional Contractors: Increase efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve project timelines. Builders: Streamline door installation processes and ensure consistent quality across all units. Remodelers: Simplify lock replacement and upgrades, especially in older homes.
