Advanced Lock and Key – Push Bar Replacement and Door Closers Installation in Wickliffe OH
Our team at Advanced Lock and Key recently completed a commercial locksmith project in Wickliffe Ohio. The job involved replacing an old push bar and installing new door closers for a local business that wanted to improve safety and meet fire code standards.
When we arrived, the existing hardware was worn out and not working properly. The push bar on the emergency exit door had become unreliable, and the door closers were leaking oil and no longer keeping the doors secure. Our technician removed the old parts and installed a brand-new panic bar and heavy-duty door closers to make sure the doors opened and closed smoothly and safely.
In the photos you can see our technician carefully aligning the hardware and securing everything in place. Proper installation is important to make sure emergency doors function correctly in case of a fire or evacuation. Once installed, we tested each door multiple times to confirm smooth operation and compliance with safety standards.
This project took place in Wickliffe, a great community just east of Cleveland near Euclid Avenue and the Shoregate Shopping Center. We often work with local businesses in the area, including warehouses, offices, and retail shops, to make sure their doors and locks are functioning the way they should. Having reliable exit hardware is not only important for safety, but it also helps protect your property and employees after hours.
The new hardware we installed will last for years and requires minimal maintenance. The panic bar allows quick exit in case of emergency, while the new closers ensure the doors shut securely every time, keeping the building safe and energy-efficient. We also made minor adjustments to the door frame and hinges to make sure everything was properly aligned.
