About University Park
A no-gate single-family pocket of roughly 360 ranch and contemporary homes sitting less than a half-mile from Florida Atlantic University off Glades Road. Mix of long-term owner-occupants on remodeled mid-century blocks next door to landlords who rent rooms to FAU students.
Platted as a postwar bedroom subdivision when FAU opened in 1964 and Glades Road was widened, the neighborhood filled in steadily through the 1970s and 1980s.
Notable in University Park:
- Walk-to-FAU location with sidewalk access to campus from the south end
- Generously sized 1/4-acre lots uncommon for 33486
- No deed restrictions on fencing, paint, or short-term-stay configurations
Nearby landmarks: Florida Atlantic University main campus, Town Center at Boca Raton, Patch Reef Park.
What Brings Triton Locksmith to University Park Most Often
- FAU student-rental conversions mean lock changes between every academic year and frequent rekey calls when room renters cycle out mid-lease
- Original 1970s aluminum sliding-door tracks on patios are pitted from decades of Glades Road traffic grit
- Detached one-car garages with original wood jambs are warped from humidity

Common Lock Issues in University Park Homes
University Park is far enough inland that salt isn't the primary enemy - but summer humidity swells wood doors, which then bind on the latch and put stress on the deadbolt mechanism. Most of our work here involves strike-plate adjustment and re-pinning rather than full lock replacement.
University Park homes commonly run Kwikset SmartKey locks. These rekey in seconds with the SmartKey tool, which is why we can often finish a whole-house rekey in under an hour and keep the price lower than a Schlage-based community.

Recent Work in University Park
Just last month, a couple closing on a home in University Park called the morning of move-in - they wanted every exterior lock rekeyed before they unpacked a single box. We had all four doors keyed to one Schlage on a single afternoon visit, plus the mailbox.
