Commercial Locksmith
Locks built for business doors
Commercial doors often use different hardware than homes: heavier-duty locks, glass storefront doors, panic bars, and master key systems. When something goes wrong, a closed door can mean lost business, so owners and managers usually want a provider who works with commercial hardware.
Instant Locksmith is a referral service, not a locksmith company. Call with your ZIP code and a description of the door and lock, and we'll help connect you with an independent provider who serves businesses in your area.
When to call
Common business lock situations
Employee turnover
A former employee kept a key and you want locks rekeyed or changed.
Storefront door problems
Glass door locks, panic bars, or closers that stick or won't latch.
Lock upgrades
Adding sturdier locks or reorganizing who has keys to which doors.
On the day
What to expect when the provider arrives
- Expect to show authorization: a business ID, written owner approval, or approval from your property manager.
- Commercial hardware such as panic bars, glass-door locks, and master key systems can need specialized parts, so describe the door when you call.
- Ask for a written summary of the work and the keys issued, for your records.
- If the lockout affects customer or staff safety, mention it so the provider can plan accordingly.
