Commercial door hardware fails differently from residential. A front door at home gets used a few times a day; a storefront or school door gets used a few hundred. That is why the grade matters, why closers and strikes need adjusting rather than just fitting, and why an exit device that is installed slightly wrong becomes a code problem rather than an inconvenience.

Code Is Not Optional on a Commercial Door
Most of what separates a commercial install from a residential one is legal rather than mechanical. An exit door has to open in one motion without a key, a tool, or special knowledge. A fire-rated door has to keep its rating, which means the hardware has to be rated for it and the door cannot be modified in ways that void the label. ADA sets limits on how much force it takes to open a door and on what the handle can require your wrist to do.
That is why the wrong lock on the right door can fail an inspection, and why we ask what the space is used for before quoting hardware. If your building has a fire marshal or an insurer with an opinion, tell us at the quote stage rather than after.

Keypads, and when they are worth it
Staff turnover is the usual reason a business calls about keypads. Every departing employee with a key is either a rekey or a risk, and after a few rounds of that the maths favors codes you can delete in ten seconds.
Codes also give you something a key never will: you can issue a different one to the cleaners, the alarm company, and the weekend manager, and remove any of them without touching the others.
What It Costs
| Work | Price |
|---|---|
| Install hardware, per opening | $150 to $2,000+ |
| Grade 2 lockset or lever, straightforward swap | Bottom of that range |
| Exit device, closer, or electrified hardware | Top of that range |
| Multi-door and whole-building projects | Quoted per project |
Why that range is so wide.
Commercial hardware spans a Grade 2 lever at one end and a concealed vertical rod exit device with an electric strike at the other, and the door matters as much as the lock. A hollow metal frame that already has the right prep is quick. An aluminum storefront that needs new cutouts, or a fire-rated door where the modification has to preserve the label, is not. We quote your openings rather than an average, and the number comes before the work.

Working Around Your Hours
- We schedule around trading hours. Early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays for retail and restaurants, so a door is never out of service while you are open.
- One opening at a time on occupied buildings. Doors are not left unsecured while we work through a list.
- Keyed to your existing system where possible. New hardware can be keyed to match what you already carry, so nobody ends up with a second key ring.
Billing and Documentation
COI and W-9 provided on request. Standard for facility, property-management, and vendor-onboarding paperwork. Payment is due on completion. Net-30 terms are considered in rare cases and only after scope review.

Member #AR124622Questions We Get
Can you install panic bars and exit devices?
Yes. Rim, surface vertical rod, concealed vertical rod, and mortise exit devices, plus exit trim, dogging, and alarmed or delayed-egress hardware. Brands include Von Duprin, Sargent, Falcon, Yale, and Corbin Russwin.
Will the hardware meet fire code and ADA requirements?
That is part of the quote rather than an afterthought. Egress doors must open in one motion without a key or special knowledge, fire-rated doors need rated hardware and modifications that preserve the label, and ADA limits opening force and handle operation. Tell us what the space is used for and we will specify hardware that suits it.
Can new hardware be keyed to our existing system?
Usually yes. New locksets can be keyed to match keys your staff already carry, or fitted with interchangeable cores so future changes take seconds instead of a service call. Restricted and patented keyways depend on your authorization with the manufacturer.
Can you work outside our business hours?
Yes. Early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays are all available, and for occupied buildings we work one opening at a time so no door is left unsecured.
Do you provide a Certificate of Insurance and a W-9?
Yes, on request, for facility, property-management, and vendor-onboarding purposes.
Is the installation guaranteed?
Yes. There is a 1-year warranty on labor. If hardware we installed does not operate properly because of the installation, we correct it at no additional charge. Defects in the hardware itself are handled through the manufacturer warranty.
