COMMERCIAL DOOR HARDWARE WE SUPPLY & INSTALL
Commercial Locks & Lock Hardware
We supply and install commercial-grade locks designed for high-traffic use and superior security:
Mortise Locks– Heavy-duty locks installed within the door itself, providing superior strength and security. Ideal for main entrances, office doors, and high-security areas. Common in older commercial buildings throughout Greater Boston.
Cylindrical Locks – Versatile locks suitable for interior office doors, employee spaces, and low-security areas. Easy to rekey and maintain, making them cost-effective for large commercial properties.
Commercial Deadbolts – Additional security layer for exterior doors and restricted areas. Available in single-cylinder, double-cylinder, and electronic versions. We install Grade 1 deadbolts rated for commercial use.
High-Security Locks – Pick-resistant, drill-resistant locks from brands like Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, and Assa Abloy. Use patented keyways that prevent unauthorized key duplication. Essential for banks, medical facilities, and high-value businesses.
Knob Locks – Simple, cost-effective locks for interior doors, storage rooms, and low-security applications. Easy to install and maintain.
Glass Door Locks – Specialized locks for glass doors and storefronts. Installed without drilling through glass. Common in retail businesses and office buildings with glass entryways.
Magnetic Locks – Electromagnetic locks that release when power is cut, ensuring safe emergency egress while maintaining security during normal operation. Often used with access control systems.
Electronic Strike Locks – Work with key card systems, keypads, or smartphone access control. Programmable for different users and time schedules. Common in office buildings and secure facilities.
Properly functioning door closers are essential for fire safety, security, and ADA compliance:
**Automatic Door Closers** – Ensure doors close completely and latch securely after each use. Adjustable closing speed and force. Required by fire codes on many commercial doors.
**Concealed Door Closers** – Hidden within the door or frame for a clean, professional appearance. Common in modern office buildings and upscale retail spaces.
**Heavy-Duty Closers** – Built for high-traffic entrances and oversized doors. Withstand thousands of daily cycles without failure.
**ADA-Compliant Automatic Door Operators** – Power-assisted doors that open with push-button activation. Required for accessibility compliance on many commercial buildings.
We install, adjust, and repair all types of door closers to ensure proper operation and code compliance throughout Greater Boston and the South Shore.
Panic Bars & Exit Devices
Life safety hardware that allows quick emergency egress while preventing unauthorized entry:
Panic Bars (Push Bars) – Required by code on many commercial exit doors. Allow immediate exit without keys or codes during emergencies.
Fire Exit Hardware – Rated for fire doors, ensuring safe egress during fire emergencies. Must meet specific fire code requirements.
Alarmed Exit Devices – Sound alarm when door is opened, deterring unauthorized use while maintaining emergency exit capability.
Delayed Egress Devices – Hold door locked for 15-30 seconds when pushed, then release. Used in retail to prevent theft while maintaining fire safety.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What's the difference between residential and commercial door hardware?
Commercial door hardware is built for higher traffic, more frequent use, and stricter code requirements. Commercial locks are graded (Grade 1 being highest quality) and designed to withstand thousands of daily cycles. Commercial hardware must also meet ADA accessibility requirements and fire safety codes.
Do I need to replace all my door hardware at once?
Not necessarily. We can prioritize upgrades based on security needs, code compliance, and budget. Often we recommend starting with exterior doors and high-security areas, then addressing interior hardware over time.
How do I know what grade lock I need?
Grade 1 locks are recommended for exterior doors and high-security areas. Grade 2 works for most interior commercial doors. Grade 3 is acceptable for low-security interior applications. We assess your needs and recommend appropriate grades for each door.
Can you match my existing door hardware finish?
Yes. We stock hardware in multiple finishes including polished chrome, satin chrome, oil-rubbed bronze, and others. We can match your existing hardware or help you select a cohesive finish for your facility.
Do you handle both supply and installation?
Yes. We supply all necessary hardware and handle complete professional installation. This ensures compatibility and proper function, and gives you a single point of contact for the entire project.
What about warranty on commercial door hardware?
Most commercial hardware carries manufacturer warranties ranging from 1 to 10 years depending on the product. We also provide warranty on our installation work.
Can you upgrade my existing doors without replacing them?
In many cases, yes. We can retrofit existing doors with new locks, closers, panic bars, and other hardware without full door replacement. We assess each situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
