Access Control Installation

The Access Control Systems We Install for Bay Area Businesses

We install systems ranging from simple keypads to cloud-managed multi-reader solutions for Bay Area tech companies and property managers. The three main systems we work with:

Standalone keypad (no network): $150-$300 per door. Best for small offices.
Networked card reader (RFID/proximity): $300-$700 per door. Scalable, log-based.
Mobile credential (phone-based): $400-$900 per door. No physical keys or cards.

We confirm which system is compatible with your existing door hardware before quoting. Call us to schedule a commercial site assessment.

Commercial Locksmith FAQ

Do you handle fire code egress requirements for Bay Area commercial properties?

Yes. Our commercial technicians are familiar with California fire code requirements for egress hardware, including panic bars, delayed egress devices, and door coordinate requirements. All exit hardware work we perform must comply with California Building Code Section 1010. We confirm compliance before completing any job.

How much does it cost to set up a master key system for a Bay Area office?

For a small Bay Area office (5-10 doors), our master key system setup typically runs $300-$600 for design and cylinder replacement, plus $8-$25 per key duplicate. Larger buildings with grand master, master, and sub-master levels cost $600-$2,500+ depending on the number of cylinders and brand. We quote a flat total before beginning any keying work.

Can you upgrade our existing access control system to a newer one?

In most cases yes. Most Wiegand-based card reader systems can be upgraded to newer controllers without rewiring. Cloud-based systems like Brivo or Kisi often require panel replacement but retain existing wiring. We audit your current system before quoting an upgrade path so you know exactly what's involved and what it will cost.
