Commercial Locks
Business owners usually want two things from us: to know exactly who can open which door, and to stop worrying about it. The services here, from rekeying to full access control, are different ways of getting to that point.
Which one do I need?
- The manager's key ring went missing somewhere between the bank and the car, and the master on it opened every door in the building.Commercial Rekeying
- After a busy shift the manager counts the keys coming back in and loses track of who still has one.Master Key System Design
- The back door of the shop runs on one key, and by now it lives on six different rings: yours, two managers, a cleaner, a supplier who restocks early, and a keyholder nobody quite remembers approving.Access Control Installation
- The fire inspector's note is blunt: the banquet hall's second exit still turns on a deadbolt, and the crowd it is rated to hold needs a door that opens under one motion, no key involved.Panic & Exit Hardware
- An inspection report flagged the rear exit as needing hardware that opens with one motion and no key, and that door currently has an ordinary keyed knob on the inside.Commercial-Grade Lock Replacement

Commercial Rekeying
Which doors are the landlord's
In a plaza, an office building or a multi-tenant industrial unit, some doors on your floor plan are not yours to rekey. Corridor doors, electrical and mechanical rooms, shared loading doors and the building's fire exits usually sit on the landlord's master system, and a suite entrance may be required to accept the landlord's key as well as yours. The locksmith sorts the openings into two columns before starting: those the lease puts under your control, which get the new plan, and those that stay as they are or need the property manager's say-so.
Where a suite door must accept both a tenant key and the building master, it is pinned to do exactly that.
