Complete commercial lock and door hardware services for businesses of every size.
Designed, keyed, and documented so owners and managers get the access they need — and no one else does. Ideal for offices, schools, and multi-tenant buildings.
Installation and repair of panic bars and exit devices from Von Duprin, Sargent, and more — keeping your building code-compliant and your people safe.
Surface-mount and concealed door closer installation, adjustment, and replacement — including LCN and dormakaba — for smooth, secure, ADA-friendly doors.
Keypads, electric strikes, and standalone access control hardware that let you manage entry without handing out keys — and change access in minutes. We sell, install, and support the Centrios smart access line.
Aluminum storefront door locks, Adams Rite deadlatches and deadbolts, pivots, and push/pull hardware — repaired or replaced to keep your entrance working right.
Fast, cost-effective rekeying after employee turnover, a move-in, or lost keys — restore key control across your whole facility, often the same day.
We schedule around your hours, work clean, and leave doors functioning — your customers never know we were there.
Panic hardware, exit devices, and door closers serviced with life-safety and ADA requirements in mind — and documented.
Multiple storefronts or offices? One account, one keying standard, one number to call across the DMV.
Contact us to experience these benefits firsthand.
Door hardware doesn't fail on a schedule — unless you put it on one. Our annual service agreements keep your doors, locks, and life-safety hardware inspected, adjusted, and documented, so small problems get fixed on a planned visit instead of becoming an emergency call.
Closers drift out of adjustment long before they fail — slamming doors, doors that don't latch, ADA-opening-force problems. Scheduled inspections catch and correct them, extending hardware life and keeping entries compliant.
Panic bars and exit devices are life-safety equipment: they have to work every single time, and a fire marshal may ask you to prove they're maintained. We test, service, and document every device on your doors.
Staff turnover quietly erodes key control. Planned rekeys of critical doors — on your schedule, at agreed rates — keep your keying current and your records clean, without emergency pricing.
