Access Control Systems
Modern businesses need more than traditional locks and keys. Access control systems give you granular control over who enters your building, which doors they can access, and when. Lock & Key Locksmith designs, installs, and maintains access control solutions for Los Angeles businesses ranging from single-door offices to multi-site corporate campuses.
We work with industry-leading access control platforms including HID, Keri Systems, DoorKing, Linear, and Honeywell. Our systems support a variety of credential types — key cards, proximity fobs, PIN codes, biometric readers (fingerprint and facial recognition), and smartphone-based mobile credentials. Every installation includes full system programming, user training, and ongoing technical support.
- Key card, fob, PIN, biometric, and mobile credential options
- Cloud-based systems with remote management capabilities
- Audit trail logging — know who entered which door and when
- Integration with CCTV, alarm, and intercom systems
- Scalable from a single door to hundreds of access points
- ADA-compliant hardware and automatic door operators available
Master Key Systems
A well-designed master key system is essential for any multi-room or multi-tenant commercial property. It allows building managers and owners to carry a single key that opens every lock in the system, while employees, tenants, or department heads receive keys that only open the specific doors they need access to. This eliminates the hassle of carrying large key rings while maintaining strict access boundaries.
Our locksmiths design custom master key hierarchies based on your organization's structure. We can create systems with multiple levels — grand master, master, sub-master, and change keys — accommodating even the most complex access requirements. Every system is documented and registered to prevent unauthorized key duplication, and we use high-security cylinders from Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, and ASSA to ensure maximum pick and bump resistance.
- Custom hierarchies: grand master, master, sub-master, and change key levels
- Restricted keyways to prevent unauthorized key duplication
- Compatible with Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA, Schlage, and more
- Full documentation and key management consulting
- Ideal for offices, apartment complexes, schools, and hospitals
High-Security Lock Installation
Standard commercial locks may not provide adequate protection for high-value assets, sensitive data, or regulated industries. Lock & Key Locksmith installs high-security locks from the world's most trusted manufacturers, providing superior resistance to picking, bumping, drilling, and forced entry. High-security locks feature patented keyways, hardened steel components, and UL-listed cylinders that meet or exceed the most stringent industry standards.
We partner with leading high-security brands including Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Abloy Protec2, ASSA Twin, and BiLock. Each of these systems offers patented key control, meaning keys cannot be duplicated without your authorization. Our technicians are factory-trained and certified to install and service these premium lock systems, ensuring they perform at the highest level for years to come.

Panic Bar & Push Bar Installation
Fire codes and ADA regulations require commercial buildings to have panic hardware (push bars/crash bars) on exit doors. These devices allow occupants to exit quickly in an emergency by simply pushing the bar, while preventing unauthorized entry from the outside. Lock & Key Locksmith installs, repairs, and maintains panic bars for every type of commercial building in Los Angeles.
We work with all major panic hardware manufacturers including Von Duprin, Sargent, Detex, Dorma, and Precision Hardware. Whether you need a rim-type exit device, a vertical rod system, a mortise-style panic bar, or a concealed vertical rod device, our team has the expertise to handle it. We also install alarm-equipped exit devices, delayed egress systems, and electric latch retraction hardware for controlled access points.
- Rim, vertical rod, mortise, and concealed rod configurations
- Fire-rated hardware for rated door assemblies
- Alarm kits and delayed egress options
- ADA-compliant hardware solutions
- Annual inspection and maintenance programs available
File Cabinet & Safe Lock Service
Sensitive documents, cash, and valuables need protection beyond standard office locks. Lock & Key Locksmith provides expert file cabinet and safe lock services for Los Angeles businesses. Whether you're locked out of a filing cabinet, need to change the combination on a safe, or want to upgrade your document storage security, we have the tools and training to help.
Our technicians service all types of file cabinets (vertical, lateral, and rotary), desk locks, cash drawers, and safes from manufacturers like FireKing, HON, Sentry, and AMSEC. We can open, rekey, repair, or replace locks on most models. For high-security needs, we also install and service GSA-approved containers and Class 5 security cabinets used by government agencies and defense contractors.

Commercial Lock Rekey
Rekeying is the most cost-effective way to update access control when employees leave, tenants change, or you simply want to refresh your building's security. Rather than replacing every lock — which can be expensive for large commercial properties — rekeying changes the internal pin configuration so the old keys no longer work, while your existing hardware stays in place.
Lock & Key Locksmith handles commercial rekeying projects of all sizes, from a single office suite to entire campus complexes with hundreds of doors. We bring all necessary supplies in our mobile units and can rekey most standard commercial cylinders in under 10 minutes per lock. We also offer keyed-alike services so you can consolidate multiple locks to a single key, simplifying your daily operations.
- Rekey any number of locks in a single visit
- Keyed-alike option to consolidate to fewer keys
- Compatible with all major commercial lock brands
- Volume discounts for large rekeying projects
- New keys provided on-site immediately
Keyless Entry Systems
Keyless entry eliminates the risk and hassle of physical keys — no more lost keys, unauthorized copies, or expensive rekeying. Lock & Key Locksmith installs a wide range of commercial keyless entry solutions that offer convenience, enhanced security, and detailed access logging for your Los Angeles business.
Our keyless entry options include standalone keypad locks, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled smart locks, magnetic lock systems with keypads, and fully networked electronic access systems. We help you choose the right solution based on your security requirements, traffic volume, and budget. All installations include programming, testing, and hands-on training so your team can manage the system with confidence from day one.
