Question 1

What is a commercial locksmith?

Accepted Answer

A commercial locksmith specializes in locks, keys and security hardware used in businesses and commercial facilities. Services may include rekeying, lock repair, master key systems, high-security locks and commercial security upgrades.

Question 2

When should a business rekey its locks?

Accepted Answer

Businesses commonly rekey after employee turnover, lost or stolen keys, tenant changes, property transitions or whenever control of existing keys is uncertain.

Question 3

Is rekeying the same as replacing a lock?

Accepted Answer

No. Rekeying changes a compatible lock so the old key no longer operates it while allowing the existing hardware to remain in place. Lock replacement involves replacing some or all of the locking hardware.

Question 4

What is a master key system?

Accepted Answer

A master key system allows different keys to operate different groups of locks. Individual users can be limited to designated doors while authorized management keys can operate multiple areas.

Question 5

What is a restricted key system?

Accepted Answer

A restricted key system is designed to provide greater control over key duplication than a standard unrestricted key system. Available options depend on the selected manufacturer and key system.

Question 6

Should I rekey or replace my commercial locks?

Accepted Answer

If the existing hardware is appropriate and in good condition, rekeying may be sufficient. Damaged, unreliable or inadequate hardware may require repair, cylinder replacement or complete replacement.

Question 7

Can you repair commercial locks?

Accepted Answer

Yes. KeyStone can evaluate commercial Lock and latching problems to determine whether adjustment, repair or replacement is appropriate.

Question 8

Can you create a master key system for an existing building?

Accepted Answer

Often, yes. Existing locks and cylinders can be evaluated to determine whether they can be incorporated into a properly designed master key system.

Question 9

Can commercial locks be upgraded to access control?

Accepted Answer

Many commercial openings can be evaluated for electronic access control using compatible electrified locks, electric strikes, exit devices or other locking hardware.

Question 10

Is access control better than traditional keys?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the facility. Traditional keys can work well for some businesses, while access control provides advantages when businesses need easier credential management, scheduled access or activity records.
