Any company or office has the duty to maintain the safety of the staff, clients, and visitors whilst they are in the building. The best place to start to achieve this, is by focusing on the entrances & exits. To keep unwanted intruders out, yet not obstruct the entry for staff and clients, is to secure the doors. For improved commercial security, we have compiled a list of eight commercial locksmith services you may want to consider.
Commercial Lock Installation Service
Lock installation and maintenance come to mind when you hear the words “commercial locksmith services.” Our professional locksmiths are fast and efficient, whether you want to service your existing locks or perhaps want newer or more effective locks installed. Unfortunately, business theft is widespread, therefore make sure to check your locks and have them replaced as soon as they become worn out and ineffective.
When it’s time for a lock change, you could replace them with the same brand and type of lock. However, this would also be the ideal time to try an upgraded lock option, perhaps something more up to date. You can turn to the locksmith team at Second City Locksmith, as they are passionate about their craft and have expert knowledge that you can benefit from. They will gladly assist you with creating an enhanced lock system and will advise you on the latest technological advances in electronic locks.
Electronic Lock Services
One of the best methods to secure an office or building is by making use of an electronic lock system. An access control system that recognizes authorized staff and visitors, whilst barring everyone else from entering, is a great way to ensure everyone’s safety.
By enabling you to remotely monitor and operate your lock mechanisms, electronic locking systems, like smart locks, improve the security and give you better control over office accessibility.
We can install more modern systems that function in tandem with any existing older electronic locking system you may already have.
Should this not be possible, your older system can be replaced to work in unison with other security improvements you may wish to make.
Your electronic lock system can be tailored to meet your unique requirements. Find the ideal locking solution for your company by getting in touch with your local locksmith team at Second City Locksmith.
Antique Lock Repair Services

Another kind of commercial locksmith service offered differs somewhat from a lock change. Second City Locksmith can assist you with the design and implementation of a CCTV security camera solution, a.k.a. video surveillance, to help keep watch over your company.
Should something happen at any point, perhaps a theft or a trespassing incident, it will be helpful to have a record of the incident. Being able to look back in time may assist you or the authorities to identify the person involved.

Intercom Systems
Intercoms are great for improving control and communication within your office or organization. Visitors can communicate directly with you or your security by using an intercom system. They can obtain the required authorization to enter by first having their identity verified.
An intercom system is also useful for instant communication throughout the building. It can help keep you informed regarding the state of your security. In the event of an emergency this way of communicating can greatly increase your response time.
Storefront Door Installation or Replacement
Your requirements may go beyond the need of just a new lock or a lock change. It is therefore good to know that your local locksmith can also provide you with an entire storefront door installation or replacement.

Additionally, these storefront doors are affordable, efficient, and environmentally friendly.

We can recycle the aluminum and remake it into a new storefront door, if ever it needs replacement.
Hardware Installation for Doors
Although we have covered security systems for doors in general, perhaps you are wondering what specific upgrades you can make to your entrance. Door closers and door alarms are two of the more popular options.
Door closers help ensure that a door cannot be left open or even slammed shut.
Door Alarms function as you would expect of them – they sound when the door is opened through force or without permission. The alarm will alert others that there is a potential problem. Door alarms can also assist in alerting customers and staff in the event of a fire. It can help guide them to get out of the building faster.
Exit devices, commonly referred to as crash bars or panic devices, are required for emergency exits. This guarantees that people can quickly and safely leave the building.
Additionally, panic hardware is a critical addition to your company because it is required as per the fire code in many places. This would make it not just a handy addition, but rather a necessity.
These are the most popular hardware devices made available to you through Second City Locksmith’s commercial locksmith services.
