What we do
Practical locksmithing for working buildings.
A business needs the right people to get in, while keeping other areas controlled. We assess the existing door hardware, the people using it and the level of key control required.
Urgent lock and access issues
A damaged lock or lost access can interrupt work or leave premises unsecured. NorthTech offers 24/7 locksmith callouts for urgent problems.
Commercial door hardware
We assess and work with suitable locks, handles, door closers, gate locks and other entry hardware as part of the complete opening.
Staff and tenancy changes
When people or tenancies change, we can review who holds keys, which locks need rekeying and whether a better access arrangement is needed.
Master and restricted keys
For multiple doors and access levels, we plan master key systems that make day-to-day access easier to manage and key issue more deliberate.
A considered approach
The right access for each role and each door.
A useful plan starts with the people: who needs access, to where, and at what level. We then check the existing hardware and explain the options for locks, key control and any related electronic access system.
Where fire, egress or building requirements apply, the chosen hardware must suit the actual door and the relevant project requirements. We do not assume one product is right for every opening.
Common questions
- Can you attend a commercial lock issue after hours?
- Yes. NorthTech offers 24/7 locksmith callouts. Call us to describe the premises and the urgent access or security issue.
- Can different staff have different key access?
- Yes. A master key system can give authorised people different levels of access. We plan the hierarchy around the doors and roles rather than issuing one key to everyone.
- Do we need new hardware when a staff member leaves?
- Not always. Depending on the lock and the risk, rekeying or a change to the key-control plan may be appropriate. We inspect the existing arrangement first.
