Compatible commercial cylinders can often be rekeyed so a former employee’s key no longer works without replacing every lock. Management should also review master keys, keypad codes, cards, credentials, and access permissions connected to that person.

Our commercial technicians can assess the existing access structure and recommend targeted lock rekeying, credential updates, or restricted-key improvements.

The decision depends on the bolt, cylinder, thumb turn, strike plate, mounting screws, door alignment, and extent of the damage. Loose components or a shifted strike may be repairable, while cracked housings, corrosion, severe wear, or forced-entry damage can justify replacement. The frame should also be inspected because new hardware will not correct weakened wood.
