Understanding Commercial Security Hardware
Commercial security hardware goes far beyond standard door locks. These are specialized components designed to meet stringent building codes, withstand heavy daily use, and protect both people and property. From life-safety devices like panic bars to access control systems and high-security locks, commercial hardware requires professional installation to function properly and meet legal requirements.
Types of Commercial Security Hardware
- Panic Bars & Exit Devices: Required on most commercial exit doors, these allow instant egress during emergencies while maintaining security from outside entry. Models include rim exit, vertical rod, and mortise exit devices.
- Door Closers: Hydraulic or pneumatic devices that automatically close doors to maintain fire ratings, climate control, and security. Commercial-grade closers handle thousands of cycles and adjust for varying door weights and traffic levels.
- High-Security Locks: Commercial locks with restricted keyways, drill resistance, and pick-proof cylinders. Brands like Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, and Assa Abloy offer patent-protected key control preventing unauthorized duplication.
- Electric Strikes & Magnetic Locks: Electrified hardware integrating with access control systems for keycard, keypad, or biometric entry. Allows remote unlocking while maintaining security when power fails (fail-secure vs. fail-safe modes).
Code Compliance is Non-Negotiable
Commercial security hardware installations must comply with International Building Code (IBC), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, and local fire marshal regulations. Non-compliant installations create liability risks, fail inspections, and most importantly, can endanger occupants during emergencies. Our technicians stay current on all code requirements and work directly with building officials to ensure your hardware meets or exceeds all standards.
Professional Installation Process
Commercial hardware installation requires precise measurements, proper door prep, and correct adjustment. Panic bars must release with 15 pounds of force or less. Door closers need proper backcheck, sweep speed, and latch speed settings for smooth operation. Electric strikes require proper power supply, fail-safe/fail-secure configuration, and integration with access control systems. We test every installation under load conditions to ensure reliable operation before job completion.
Maintenance Prevents Emergency Failures
Commercial security hardware requires regular maintenance—typically quarterly for high-traffic doors. Annual service includes checking door closer fluid levels, testing panic bar release force, lubricating hinges and pivots, tightening mounting hardware, and inspecting wear on strikes and latches. Preventative maintenance costs a fraction of emergency repairs and prevents business disruptions from failed hardware.
Common Hardware Problems We Fix
Door closers that slam or fail to latch, panic bars that stick or require excessive force, electric strikes that buzz or fail to release, high-security locks with cylinder damage from forced entry attempts—these are all urgent issues we handle 24/7. Most commercial hardware problems stem from deferred maintenance, improper adjustment, or incorrect initial installation. Our emergency service gets your doors functioning properly to restore security and prevent code violations.
