New Lever Handle Installed on a Business Door with Restricted Keys in Cleveland, OH
New Lever Handle Installed on a Business Door with Restricted Keys in Cleveland, OH
We just finished up a nice commercial job right here in Cleveland, OH. A local business owner called us because they needed new lever handles on their doors. The old hardware wasn’t working good and they wanted something more secured. So we headed out and got it done the same day.
We installed a brand new lever handles on the business doors and set them up with restricted keys and cylinders. If you’re not familiar with restricted keys, they can only be copied by an authorized locksmith and not at your local home depot. That means no employee can just walk into a hardware store and make a duplicate. Brands like Schlage, Arrow, and Medeco make some of the best restricted key systems out there. For this job we went with Arrow hardware which is a solid commercial grade product that holds up real well in high-traffic doors.
We also installed a new deadbolt cylinder on the front glass storefront door and a push bar on the exterior side. Everything matches and works together so the owner has full control over who gets in and out. The bolt is lines up clean with the strike plate. If your strike plate isn’t aligned right, even a good lock won’t protect you the way it should. That’s a very good additional piece of security you may want to consider.
Here’s a quick tip, if you run a business, check your door hardware at least twice a year. Loose handles and locks are a sign that something needs attention before it becomes a security problem. And if you’re still using standard keys that anyone can copy at the local Home Depot, it might be time to think about switching to a restricted key system. It’s one of the easiest ways to tighten up your building security without spending a fortune.
