Fit new hardware to a business entrance
A new lock needs to suit both the opening and the way people use it. Tell us whether the door is a storefront entrance, a shared building door or an interior office door. Photos of the lock, door edge and frame help identify what fits.
If the door has an existing access arrangement, including keys shared with other doors or an electric release, bring that up at the start. If a property manager or owner must approve the work, share their requirements before ordering or fitting hardware.
Commercial Lock Installation FAQ
What kind of lock fits a commercial glass door?
The frame, existing opening and way people use the entrance determine the options. Share photos of the lock and door edge, plus any hardware requirements from the property manager.
Can I replace one lock without changing all the other keys?
Tell us which keys should still work and whether the existing doors are on a shared system. Compatibility depends on the hardware and the property’s requirements.
What if the existing door fails to close properly?
Mention it before choosing new hardware. The door may need an alignment or latch repair as part of restoring reliable use.
