Need a Locksmith for Your Charleston Business?

An employee left the company and you need to rekey the entire office suite on Upper King Street before Monday?
Your storefront glass door closer is broken and the door won't latch, leaving your shop on Market Street unsecured overnight?
You're opening a new restaurant on East Bay and need a master key system, panic hardware, and ADA-compliant lever handles installed before the health inspection?
The commercial-grade deadbolt on your warehouse in North Charleston is seized and your night crew can't lock up?

Services We Provide

Commercial Lock Installation & Replacement

We install commercial-grade deadbolts, lever handles, mortise locks, and exit devices. All hardware meets ANSI/BHMA commercial ratings for durability and security.

Master Key System Design & Implementation

One key for management, unique keys for each employee or zone. We design and implement master key systems for offices, apartment complexes, and mixed-use buildings.

Panic Bar & Exit Device Installation

Fire code requires panic hardware on many commercial doors. We install and service crash bars, exit devices, and alarmed exit hardware from Von Duprin, Sargent, and Yale.

Commercial Lockout Service

Locked out of your business? We get you back inside quickly using non-destructive entry techniques. Available during business hours and after hours.

Storefront Door Lock Service

We service Adams Rite, Kawneer, and other storefront-specific lock systems. Includes latch guards, cylinder replacement, and storefront door closer installation.

High-Security Lock Upgrades

Protect sensitive areas with restricted-keyway locks from Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, or Abloy. These keys cannot be duplicated without your authorization.
