Commercial-Grade Access Control for Your Business
If your business is in need of a security upgrade, give us a call. We can work with you to come up with the most effective access control system for your particular needs. We can install everything from easy-to-use push-button keypad locks on a few key office doors, to a building-wide system that uses key fobs or even biometric fingerprints scanners to open doors. Many commercial properties and warehouses in the area also like to have intercom systems so they can easily identify and speak with visitors before letting them onto the property.
We also install, repair, and rekey commercial door locks and also set up master key systems, security systems, and alarms for your commercial business, warehouse, retail store, and apartment complexes.
Access Control Systems We Install in Chicago Homes
Your home security is a top priority, and we can help you choose the best options for your needs. Many of our local clients enjoy the security and convenience of Smart Locks on their exterior doors. There are many different types of Smart Locks on the market today and some of the most popular can be operated remotely with your smartphone. We also install video doorbells to help you keep an eye on who comes and goes on your front porch and even your basement door.
Commercial Access Control System
Panic Bar & Exit Device Installation
We install ADA-compliant exit bars required by Chicago fire codes. These devices connect directly to your system for safe exiting.
High-Security Lock Upgrades
Add extra protection to server rooms or offices. We install high-security cylinders and deadbolts alongside your electronic access control hardware.
Commercial Lock Rekeying
When transitioning from traditional keys to electronic access control, we rekey remaining keyed doors so old keys no longer work, a critical security step often overlooked.
Residential Access Control System
Video Doorbell Installation
Ring, Nest, and Arlo video doorbells installed and configured with your smart lock for a complete front-door security system, motion alerts, two-way audio, and remote unlock.
Deadbolt Installation & Upgrade
Homeowners installing smart locks often upgrade their deadbolts at the same time. We install Grade 1 and Grade 2 deadbolts from Schlage and Kwikset alongside any smart lock system.
Lock Rekeying After Move-In
Before installing your new smart lock system, we rekey all existing locks so previous owners, tenants, or contractors can no longer access the property.
Garage Door Lock & Access Control
Garages are the most common point of entry for residential break-ins. We install smart garage access systems, keypad entry, and reinforced locks for attached and detached garages.
Mailbox & Storage Lock Upgrade
Replace worn or compromised mailbox and storage-unit locks as part of a full residential security upgrade — a common request alongside smart lock installations.
Full Residential Security Assessment
Before any installation, we evaluate every entry point — front door, back door, sliding glass, garage, basement — and recommend a layered security plan that fits your budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does access control installation cost in Chicago?
Costs vary based on the number of doors and the types of hardware. We provide flat-rate quotes after an on-site visit to ensure accurate pricing for your specific building needs.
Can you install access control without running new cables?
Yes. We install wireless and battery-powered locks that connect to your network via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. These systems save time and reduce the need for drilling or wiring.
What happens when someone loses their key card or fob?
You can instantly deactivate the lost credential using your management software. This prevents unauthorized entry without requiring changes to physical locks or issuing new keys to everyone.
Is access control right for a small business?
Absolutely. It eliminates the cost of replacing locks when employees leave. Small businesses use it to track staff attendance and to secure sensitive areas such as inventory rooms or offices.
Do you install access control for apartment buildings?
Yes. We set up systems for the main entrances, gyms, and laundry rooms. Residents can use fobs or smartphones, while managers easily update the database when tenants move in or out.
