Commercial Locksmith Work Built for Daily Traffic
A commercial door gets worked all day, and hardware specified for a house gives up quickly under that kind of use. Master Locksmith fits to commercial duty ratings instead — heavier cylinders, closers set correctly, strike plates that stay aligned after a week of the door being slammed. One shopfront or a whole tenanted building, the specification gets settled before the invoice does.
We carry both domestic and commercial hardware, and masterkey design is the work we are asked for most often. That might be a single office cylinder swapped over on the day, or an entire building rescheduled from the ground up. Either way the door is tested with the finished key in hand before anyone signs it off.

How a Masterkey Schedule Gets Planned
A masterkey system is a schedule long before it is a set of locks. We walk the building with you, write down every door and who legitimately needs to pass through it, then work out the pin combinations so that a cleaner's key opens the corridors and nothing else while a manager's key opens the lot. Get the schedule wrong and the whole building has to be re-pinned later, which is why we agree it on paper with you before a single cylinder is cut.
Staff shut out, or a cylinder that failed mid-shift? Call us — a unit is on duty.

Hardware can be supplied and fitted at your premises and keyed to the set your staff already carry, so nobody has to be issued a second key for the same door. Where taking a door offline mid-morning is not practical, the fitting can be booked outside trading hours instead. Grades run from standard commercial cylinders up to restricted keyways where you need key copying controlled, and we will explain what each step actually buys you.
Call-Outs Day or Night
Our mobile units work the full area we cover, and commercial call-outs are pushed up the queue because locked premises usually means staff standing outside and trading stopped. Tell us the door type and what it is doing when you phone, and the technician can load the right cylinders before setting off.
