A locked office or storefront costs you money every minute. I open business doors without damaging them, during my hours 7 days a week, and then fix whatever caused the lockout so it does not happen again.
Call and tell me what kind of door and lock you have. I will tell you what to expect before I head out.
A few things that make the visit faster, and what to do afterward so it does not happen again.
Before I open any business door, I need to know you are authorized. A driver's license plus something that ties you to the business works: a lease, a business card, a utility bill, or the owner or property manager on the phone. It protects you as much as anyone.
I always try non-destructive entry first. Most commercial locks can be picked or bypassed without damage. If a door truly has to be drilled, I explain why and give you the price before I touch it, and I replace the cylinder on the same visit so you can lock up that night.
If the lockout happened because keys were lost or someone left with a set, the old keys are still out there. Rekeying makes them stop working. For businesses with several doors and people, a master key system lets each person open only what they need.
Lockouts often happen because a lock is failing: a storefront deadlock that sticks, a closer that slams, or a keypad running out of battery. A mechanical keypad needs no batteries and no keys, which is why many of my commercial customers switch. I also service panic bars and exit devices.
I work 7 days a week from 9 AM to 7 PM, and most business lockouts are same-day. Call 561-406-9944 in Palm Beach County or 954-204-0599 in Broward. See all my commercial locksmith services.
A photo ID plus something that ties you to the business, like a lease, a business card or a utility bill. If you are an employee, the owner or manager can confirm by phone.
I always try non-destructive entry first, and most commercial locks can be opened without damage. If drilling is truly needed, I explain why and give you the price first.
Rekey the locks so the old keys stop working. If several people need different access, ask about a master key system.
Yes. I open locked file cabinets and desks and can replace the lock and make new keys.
It depends on the door and the lock. I quote every job before I start, estimates are free, and the price I quote is the price you pay.
