When it comes to adapting locks and upgrading them, there are no easy solutions. There also isn't anyone better than Old Glory Locksmith to take care of the job.
Have a look at this other recent commercial franchise lock repair that we recently completed.
This job entailed converting this BEST IC core electric gate lock to SC1 mortis.
Since the original setup was IC core and there are no screws on the back of the tailpiece, the actuator had to be modified to fit the new cylinder.
Without existing screws on the BEST tailpiece, the actuator was welded on. With careful and efficient use of a dremel, we were able to make the appropriate changes and finish the lock conversion.
Now, this commercial lock is strong and secure. The upgraded change to a SC1 mortis platform will continue to provide low maintenance, high security protection for this commercial facility for many years to come.
Door alarms are integral to the security of a business location. On this particular job, the client needed their Detex Alarm Lock rekeyed and installed.
Take a look at a recent
The brand of this battery powered emergency exit door alarm is Detex. Detex is an American brand that produces a great product. This lock is designed to detect unauthorized openings of a door. If a door opening is detected, a highly audible alarm is sounded.
Within short time I rekeyed the Detex alarm, leaving them with a master key, and installed the exit security door alarm. The job was executed perfectly.
The customers were very pleased to have their commercial facility protected with their Detex door alarm.
I love opening safes.
There is both a science and an art to solving these puzzles that I just really enjoy. So when I had a client call me up about an old safe he had, I was intrigued.
I thought he was talking about an old fire safe or even gun safe, but this was much more rare.
This client had an antique Triumph-labeled Mosler safe. Mosler was a company that made serious safes and bank-vaults until about 16 years ago. This one seems to be from the late 1800s.
They were renowned for their strength. In fact, several of their safes, installed in bank vaults in Hiroshima withstood the nuclear attack on that city! Talk about serious money protection!
Anyway, my customer had the combination to the main door, but the interior door required a key. Not just any key, but a flat steel key that they did not have. They called us to open it.
Since these antique safes aren't all that common, and after doing extensive research, I may be the only locksmith to open such a lock in over 20 years! I opened the antique safe and then I decode the lock so I can fabricate a new "Flat Steel Key" for it.
Call me if you have a safe that needs opening, especially and ancient safe like this! I love 'em.
Locks and their installation are always important for any commercial business, it helps them work their best which is especially important once inspection rolls around. This was the case for this particular job.
With the Glendale city inspection scheduled for the following day, there was no time to waste on this lock installation, and I came out right away for the installation. The installation of the lock indicator went well and we were able to get this commercial lock indicator installed within a few hours.
Our customer was so happy with how the commercial lock installation turned out! Not only did the new indicator for the lock work perfectly but their inspection was easily passed.
After the commercial lock installation saved their inspection, they were able to have their open house on time in Glendale with functioning locks and lock indicators on their doors.
I got a new customer who was in need of some new locks in Glendale. She wanted to get a locksmith to replace her privacy locks she had on her bedroom doors.
Privacy locks can be locked by a button or turn-piece on the inside, but they have no key function. They are used on interior doors in bedroom and bathroom applications. Generally, privacy lock sets have an emergency entry hole on the outside to allow easy access to a room if needed, but these particular ones did not.
As we discussed her options, which were to leave them as they were (not an option for her), replace the privacy locks with some new basic locks or get a keyed privacy lock. The customer decided it would be a better option to just have a keyed entry.
She also didn't want different door knobs on all her doors so she needed someone who could match the levers and knobs already existing in the home.
I walked her through getting the correct product ordered and discussed what she would be looking at in the way of cost. I also reminded her that once we had the lock sets in hand, I would be able to get everything taken care of and installed in about an hour. She was happy with the options provided and asked me to go ahead and order the locks.
I ordered the new entry locks to match existing locks and privacy locks in her Glendale home. Once they arrived I set up a time to come over that worked for her and went about removing the old locks and installing new privacy locks.
As promised, it was taken care of quickly and I was able to provide her exactly what she was looking for. She told me she was happy to get a fair price and good knowledgeable craftsmanship.
