Just moved into a new commercial property? Changing the locks is good practice, and most insurance companies will ask that you do this. It's common for many keys to be handed out to staff, and changing the locks will put you in control of who has keys.
We can change locks in all types of commercial units and make sure that the locks meet insurance standards. We not only change locks, but we can also make sure the fire doors are compliant and that the escape system is working correctly.
It's essential to pay attention to this. In most cases, your insurance company will insist on the locks being changed. A professional locksmith will ensure the correct locks are used and meet insurance standards.
Locksmith Direct can advise on changing the locks for the following reasons
Knowing which locks should be used in different circumstances, such as having locks fitted to internal office doors. These should always be escape locks, meaning no one can be locked inside a room and can escape without having to use a key.
Ensuring the correct locks are used is as important as changing the locks. If the wrong locks are fitted, and the premises are broken into, the building insurance will be invalid. So why do most insurance companies insist on the correct locks? Because commercial buildings are just that, "commercial", meaning no one lives there, and the premises are not occupied, leaving them more vulnerable to opportunist thieves.
When you move into a new commercial building, one job that needs to be done annually is checking the fire doors and ensuring they work correctly. We can repair or replace all fire door mechanisms.
We can access and advise on all your commercial building security, whether you need all the locks replaced or if your thinking of upgrading your security to higher standard.
