Businesses change locks after staff turnover, lost keys, or a lease change, and commercial hardware has its own durability and code demands.
Storefront and office doors see far more daily use than a home, so they call for Grade 1 mortise locks, commercial levers, and panic hardware built to survive heavy traffic. The right grade prevents premature failure.
Commercial exits must allow free escape and meet accessibility requirements, so lever handles and code-compliant exit devices are common. A locksmith familiar with these rules keeps a change compliant.
