Doors fitted to business premises tend to be much higher traffic than standard residential doors, meaning ongoing maintenance to keep them operating correctly is a must.

Entry points are used more frequently, keys are shared across multiple members of staff, and a break-in can have devastating consequences. This is why it’s vital to have a Master Locksmiths Association approved company looking after your business security.

Lock Changes and Replacements

One of the most common commercial jobs we carry out is a straightforward lock change. This might be following a member of staff leaving, a lost key, or simply because the existing locks are worn or no longer up to standard.

We work on a wide range of commercial door types, including timber, steel and aluminium. We can offer expert advice on the right lock grade for your specific requirements. We will always ensure any replacement lock complies with the relevant British Standards to keep your property compliant with your business insurance.

Master Key Systems Northumberland

For businesses operating across multiple rooms, floors or access points, managing a large number of individual keys quickly becomes a problem. A master key system allows you to control exactly who has access to which areas of your business, without the need for a separate key to operate every single door.

We supply and fit master key systems for commercial properties across Northumberland and North Tyneside. Once installed, you can grant different levels of access to different members of staff, keeping sensitive areas secure while allowing general movement through the rest of the building. It also significantly reduces the number of keys in circulation, which is something most business owners appreciate once they see it working in practice.

Roller Shutter Locks 

Roller shutters provide a solid layer of security for commercial premises. We carry out emergency shutter opening for both manual and electric roller shutters.

If your manual shutter locks are stiff, difficult to operate, or you've been locked out altogether, Stay Safe Locksmiths can help get them working again quickly and efficiently.

If your electronic shutter won’t open or close with the fob or key switch, we can get it back in working order in no time. We cover roller shutter work across the region, from industrial units in Cramlington to retail units closer to the coast in places like Whitley Bay.

Commercial Door Closers

A door that does not close properly isn’t just a security risk it can also be a danger to the public. Once commercial door closers fail, they can start to slam so fast they could potentially injure somebody. Commercial door closers take a lot of punishment over the course of a working day, and the oil seals eventually wear out.

We supply and fit replacement commercial door closers for a range of door types and weights. If your current closer is failing to pull the door shut consistently, is slamming or it has stopped working altogether, we can replace it with genuine heavy duty parts from leading manufacturers such as Dorma Kaba and Axim.

Panic Hardware and Fire Exit Maintenance 

Commercial properties with designated fire exits have a legal obligation to keep them functioning correctly at all times. Panic hardware, the push bars and push pads fitted to fire exit doors, take a lot of daily use. It’s not uncommon for them to develop faults over time that are easy to overlook until the door fails to open.

We supply and fit panic hardware for commercial premises across Northumberland and North Tyneside. We can also carry out repairs on existing push bar and push pad mechanisms that have become stiff, misaligned or have an intermittent fault. A fire exit that is difficult to operate is not just a security concern, it is also a compliance issue, and one that can have serious consequences for a business if it is not addressed.

If you are fitting out a new commercial space, relocating to a new building, or your existing panic hardware is showing signs of wear, we can advise on the right equipment for the door and ensure it is installed and adjusted correctly. We work on fire exit doors across a range of commercial property types, from retail units to office buildings and industrial premises.

Security Surveys for Commercial Properties

If you are unsure where your premises stands in terms of security and fire regulation compliance a survey is always a sensible starting point. We visit the property, assess the existing locks and entry points, and give you an honest overview of anything that needs attention.

We work with businesses across the whole of Northumberland and North Tyneside, from Whitley Bay and Tynemouth through to Shiremoor, Killingworth and beyond. That local knowledge matters because commercial premises in different areas face different risks, and a good security survey by a professional local locksmith will always take that into account.

A Commercial Locksmith You Can Rely On

A lot of the commercial work we carry out comes through recommendations from existing customers, and that is something we always want to keep going forwards. We turn up when we say we will, carry out the work to a high standard, and give straightforward advice without the pushy sales pressure.

If you run a business in Northumberland or North Tyneside and need a commercial locksmith, whether that is for a planned upgrade or an urgent call-out, get in touch with Stay Safe Locksmiths and we will be happy to talk you through the options.
