Why Landrum Customers Need Commercial Lock Replacement

A forced entry attempt: Attempted break-ins on storefronts or offices often damage the lock mechanism even when the attempt itself failed.
Outdated hardware that no longer meets security needs: Older mortise or cylindrical locks installed decades ago may no longer meet a business's current security expectations.
Incompatibility with a new door closer or panic device: Adding a door closer or panic bar sometimes requires the existing lock to be replaced with a compatible function.
An ADA compliance update: Some hardware upgrades are prompted by accessibility requirements around how much force is needed to operate a lock or lever.

The Risks of DIY Commercial Lock Replacement in Landrum

Overlooking lock function codes (entry, storeroom, classroom, communicating): Commercial lock functions have specific names tied to how they should operate, and ordering the wrong function can leave a door that locks or unlocks incorrectly for its intended use.
Not accounting for ADA-required operating force: Some jurisdictions cap how much force a lever or lock can require to operate, and a non-compliant replacement can create a code violation.
Compatibility issues with door closers or panic hardware: A mismatched lock function can prevent the door from working correctly with an existing closer or exit device.
Downtime for the business while troubleshooting: An improperly installed commercial lock can leave a door non-functional during business hours, which is a direct cost.

What Affects the Cost

Lock function type (cylindrical, mortise, or storefront)
Hardware grade and brand
Compatibility with existing door closers or panic devices
Whether rekeying into an existing system is needed
