Keyless Entry Systems in Brookhaven, PA

Employees on different shifts may need to enter a business in Brookhaven without passing a key from one person to another.

We install keyless entry systems that let each employee use a separate code, so access does not depend on sharing one combination. If someone leaves, the way you update access varies by model. Some allow you to remove that person's entry on its own, while others require changes to more than one entry. We help you choose a system with code settings that fit how your business operates.

Your choice of system also depends on the door and how it is used. A keypad may suit an employee entrance, but the existing hardware and the type of door matter when choosing a compatible model. For businesses in Brookhaven, we look at those details rather than assume one option fits every entrance. Many systems run on batteries, and some include a backup key as another way in if the power runs down. That backup option is worth considering when you choose a system.

We look at the door and existing lock first, including whether the keypad supports a separate code for each person.

If a former worker had an individual code, removing it may leave the other codes in place. A shared code is different: changing it means everyone who uses it will need the replacement. We also check what programming access is available, since that affects the choices for removing a code.

Before starting, we explain whether the existing system can be reprogrammed or whether another lock would be needed for individual codes. If a reset is necessary, we explain what it would remove and which codes would need to be set up again. We also go over whether the chosen model has a backup key and check it with you if a key is available. Once the codes are set, we check that the active codes operate the door as intended. If the former worker's code is known, we can also check that it no longer works.

Keep a record of which code belongs to each person, and decide how the two businesses will report access changes to one another.

Remove a departing person's code and check that the remaining codes still work. Avoid writing codes where visitors can see them, and change any code you suspect has been shared.

Watch for a dim display, weak tones or a code that needs repeated attempts. Low batteries may be the cause, though other faults can produce similar signs. Follow the lock's battery replacement instructions, and keep the backup key in a secure place that an authorized person can reach from outside the building. Keep dirt and moisture out of the lock's openings. If fresh batteries do not resolve the problem, the key does not turn, or a code cannot be removed, call us to check the system.
