A shop on Calle Ocho, a ground-floor cafe in Midtown and a fifth-floor office downtown have very different doors, but the same problem when a lock fails: the business cannot open, or cannot close. As a storefront and office locksmith in Miami, this is the lock work we do most often for small and mid-sized businesses.

Glass storefront doors in Miami
Aluminum-and-glass storefront doors use a narrow lock body with a hook or swing bolt and a separate cylinder. For example, the usual faults are a bolt that no longer throws fully, a cylinder that spins, or a thumb-turn that has come loose. These are repairable parts. We replace cylinders and lock bodies, adjust strikes, and get the door locking smoothly again.
Rekeying when staff change
When a manager or keyholder leaves, the simple fix is to rekey the affected doors and issue new keys. However, if turnover is frequent, we can set up restricted keys that a kiosk cannot copy, so you know how many keys exist.
Master key setups for small premises
Not every business needs a large system. A common arrangement is one key for the owner that opens everything, a key for staff that opens the entrance and stock room, and a separate key for the office. Then we plan the levels with you and keep a record so we can extend it later.
Exit devices and back doors
Push bars on rear and emergency exits take a lot of abuse from deliveries. If a bar does not latch, drags, or fails to release, it is both a security gap and a potential problem at inspection.
We service and replace exit devices and the trim on the outside of the door. For anything touching fire-rated doors, we fit hardware rated for that door and suggest you confirm requirements with your landlord or the local fire marshal.
Keyless entry for a Miami storefront or office
For offices that want to stop handing out keys, a standalone keypad or card lock on the main door is often enough. You can change the codes when people leave.
A storefront locksmith who works around your hours
Miami shops cannot stop trading for a lock repair, so our storefront locksmith visits fit around you. We are available 24 hours, so we can schedule work before opening or after closing. If you are locked out at opening time or cannot secure the door at night, say so when you call so we treat it as urgent.
Storefront locksmith Miami: common questions
Do I need the landlord’s permission?
Often, yes. Many commercial leases require the landlord to hold a key or approve hardware changes. Check before we rekey.
Can you match the new lock to my existing keys?
In most cases, yes. We can key a replacement cylinder to your current key.
Do you handle larger buildings?
Yes. See our commercial locksmith in Miami page for the full range of business services.
