After a break-in, getting the property secured again is usually more urgent than anything else — an unsecured door or window is an open invitation for a second incident. Damaged locks, split frames, and forced deadbolts are assessed and repaired or temporarily secured the same visit.
Immediate securing versus permanent repair
If a door or frame is too damaged to repair on the spot, a temporary securing measure — reinforcing the frame, installing a stopgap lock, or boarding a broken panel — is put in place immediately so the property isn't left open, with a permanent repair or replacement scheduled right after.

What break-in damage typically looks like
Forced entry often splits the door frame around the strike plate, bends or shears the deadbolt bolt itself, or destroys the lock cylinder from drilling or prying attempts. Sometimes the door slab itself is cracked near the lock if enough force was used.

Working alongside a police report and insurance
Photographing damage before repair, and being available to describe the type of forced entry method used, can support both a police report and an insurance claim, so nothing structural is repaired before it's properly documented.

Answers
Burglary Damage Repair FAQ
Common questions about burglary damage repair Indianapolis in the Indianapolis area.
Can my door be secured tonight even if it can't be fully repaired yet?
Yes, a temporary securing measure — reinforcing the frame or installing a stopgap lock — is a priority so the property isn't left open overnight while a permanent repair is arranged.
Should I call the police before or after getting the door repaired?
Generally before any repair, if possible, so the damage can be documented for a police report. If the property needs to be secured immediately, that comes first and photos are taken beforehand.
Will insurance cover a locksmith call after a break-in?
Many homeowner and renter policies cover this kind of damage, though it depends on your specific policy. Documentation of the damage and repair is provided to support a claim either way.
What usually needs replacing after a forced-entry attempt?
Commonly the door frame near the strike plate, the deadbolt or lock cylinder if it was drilled or pried, and sometimes the door slab itself if it cracked under the force used.
Is this covered under emergency or 24-hour service?
Yes, burglary damage repair is treated as an emergency call given the security exposure, and is available any time, day or night.
