Commercial lock and key work, handled on site
A lock problem at a business moves faster than one at home. An employee loses a key, a lock fails at closing time, or a staff change means you need to know who still has access. These are the calls we take from business owners and property managers every day at E-Mobilize Auto Key & Lockout.
We work as a mobile service, so the technician comes to your property. No need to pull hardware off the door and transport it. We rekey locks, install deadbolts and commercial-grade hardware, set up master key systems, and get businesses back in when a lockout hits — all on site and on your schedule. Not sure what fits your situation? A short phone call usually clears it up.
What we handle on a typical commercial call
Commercial properties vary widely — retail storefronts, offices, warehouses, and multi-tenant buildings each have their own needs. Here is the work that makes up most of our commercial calls.
Business Lockout
Locked out before opening, after hours, or mid-shift? We get commercial doors open without damaging the hardware or the frame. Whether it's a standard knob lock, a deadbolt, or a push-bar exit device, we use the right tools for the lock in front of us and work as quickly as the situation allows.
Lock Rekeying
When a staff member leaves, a key goes missing, or you take over a new space, rekeying changes the pins inside the existing lock so that old keys stop working and new ones are cut to match. It costs less than replacing hardware and can be done across multiple locks in a single visit. We can also key several locks to one key to simplify day-to-day access.
Lock Replacement & Installation
Worn, damaged, or undersized hardware gets replaced with commercial-grade locks suited to the door and the level of security the location needs. We install knob locks, lever sets, deadbolts, and mortise locks on standard commercial door preps. Already have hardware picked out? We can fit it correctly and make sure it aligns with the strike and frame.
Master Key Systems
A master key system lets individual keyholders open only the doors relevant to their role, while a master key opens all of them. It's a practical solution for offices, apartment buildings, and any property where different people need different levels of access. We design, key, and document the system so you know exactly who has what.
Access Control & Keypad Locks
Keypad and electronic locks remove the need to cut, track, and collect physical keys. Codes can be changed in seconds when someone leaves, and entry logs let you see who came and went. We install and configure keypad locks on standard commercial door preps and set up access codes before we leave. Have a specific system in mind? Ask on the phone and we'll confirm compatibility.
Key Duplication
Need copies cut for new staff, a second keyholder, or a spare set kept on site? We cut commercial keys on location. If locks are being rekeyed in the same visit, all copies are made at the same time so everything comes away matching. We can also cut restricted or do-not-duplicate keys for properties that require tighter key control.

The calls we get most often from businesses
A staff member left and had a key
Employee turnover is one of the most common reasons businesses call us. Rekeying is the fastest and most cost-effective way to make sure a departed employee's key no longer works. We can rekey every relevant lock in one visit and have new keys cut and in hand before we leave, so there is no window where the old key still works.
You're taking over a new space
A leased or purchased commercial space comes with a key history you can't fully account for — previous tenants, contractors, landlord copies. Rekeying on day one means you start with a clean slate. If the hardware is worn or not up to the job, we can replace it at the same time and key everything to a single new key.
Too many keys floating around
Properties that have grown over time often end up with a tangle of different keys for different doors, with no clear record of who has what. A master key system brings order to that: individual staff get keys that open only the doors they need, while managers or owners hold a master that opens all of them. We design and document the system so the record is clear from day one.
Rekey, new hardware, or go keyless?
The right answer depends on the property and the problem. Rekeying works when the hardware is sound and you just need to change who has access. New locks make sense when hardware is worn or you need a higher-security grade. Keypad systems are worth considering when you want to avoid managing physical keys altogether. We'll walk through the options and give you a price for each before anything starts. Questions first? Our FAQ page covers the common ones.
Answers to what businesses ask us
Can you rekey multiple locks to a single key in one visit?
Yes. Rekeying several locks to one key — sometimes called keying alike — is a common request for offices and retail spaces. We bring the tooling to do this on site so you leave with one key that works every door we touched.
What is a master key system and does my business need one?
A master key system lets you give each keyholder access to only the doors relevant to their role, while a master key opens all of them. It is most useful on properties with multiple access zones — offices with private areas, apartment buildings, or warehouses with restricted sections. If you are managing more than a handful of doors and different people need different levels of access, it is worth a conversation.
Do you work on commercial-grade locks, not just residential hardware?
Yes. We work with commercial knob locks, lever sets, deadbolts, mortise locks, and push-bar exit devices. If you have a specific make or grade of hardware, let us know on the phone and we can confirm we carry what's needed.
Can you install keypad or electronic access locks on our doors?
We install and configure keypad locks on standard commercial door preps. We set up access codes and test the mechanical backup before we leave. If you have a specific brand or model in mind, mention it on the call so we can confirm it's compatible with your door.
What do you need from me to open a locked commercial property?
We ask for identification and verification that you are authorized to access the property — a business license, lease agreement, or similar document works. We do this on every commercial lockout call to protect property owners.
What are your hours for commercial calls?
We answer calls around the clock, including evenings and weekends. Lockouts don't keep business hours, and neither do we. If you reach us outside normal hours, give us the details and we will let you know what we can do and how quickly we can be there.
How is pricing handled for commercial work?
We give you a price on the phone before we come out, based on the job and the hardware involved. For larger projects like master key systems or multi-lock installs, we scope the work first so you have a clear number before anything begins. No surprises on the invoice.
