Hardware & Access Control

## What Our Hardware & Access Control Services Cover

Hardware is where most door callbacks start. A closer sized for a lighter door, a strike that does not match the frame prep, a mag-lock with no fire alarm release: each one is a small mistake that comes back as a work order. Our hardware family is built around one habit: write the hardware schedule first, then install to it.

This family covers five services. Push bar installation adds rim, vertical rod and mortise exit devices to existing doors. Door closer installation sizes and sets closers for door weight and Toronto winters. Door hardware installation covers locks, pulls, electric strikes and mag-locks keyed to the building plan. Access control installation adds Kantech readers and keypads with the full door side handled. AODA operator installation retrofits barrier-free operators and push buttons on public entrances.

Most common commercial lines are sourced within 7 business days: Dorma, LCN, Von Duprin, Adams Rite, Hager, Yale, Norton, Schlage, Kantech, Rockwood, Trimco and Ives. Where a brand is already standard in the building, we stay on it so keying, finishes and service parts match.

Hardware jobs are often the fastest in our lineup, typically 3-10 business days from spec to install. Rated doors get rated hardware only, and electrified locking always comes with a written fail-safe and fail-secure schedule.

### 

Commercial Push Bar Installation

[/commercial-push-bar-installation/ →](/commercial-push-bar-installation/)

$900-$2,400

Exit devices retrofitted onto existing steel, aluminum and rated doors: Von Duprin 98/99, Adams Rite 8800 and Hager 4500 series in rim, surface vertical rod, concealed vertical rod or mortise configurations. We match the device to the door construction, stile width and rating, so rated doors get fire exit hardware with no dogging and unrated doors can have hex-key dogging for business hours. Lever trim, cylinder functions and strike reinforcement are listed per door, and every device is fit and latch tested before we leave. Install typically 5-10 business days from sign-off.

Includes: Rim, rod or mortise devices | Fire exit hardware on rated doors | Trim and dogging options | Fit and latch tested

Timeline: 5-10 biz days spec-to-install; crew of 1-2

A Woodbridge manufacturing plant needed exit devices on three existing steel doors. We checked each door for reinforcement, fitted Von Duprin rim devices with matched trim, and the inspector had no notes on the follow-up visit.

Door Closer Installation

[/door-closer-installation/ →](/door-closer-installation/)

$450-$1,200

Commercial closers from Dorma, LCN and Norton installed or replaced and sized to the actual door weight and wind exposure. We choose the arm for the door and frame, regular, parallel or hold-open, and set sweep speed, latch speed and backcheck so lobby doors stop slamming in summer and still latch against winter stack pressure. LCN 4040XP, Dorma 8900 and Norton 7500 surface closers are typical, with concealed overhead closers on aluminum entrances and all-weather fluid on exterior doors. Rated doors get rated closers. Install typically 3-7 business days from sign-off.

Includes: Sized to door weight | Regular, parallel or hold-open arm | Backcheck and latch speed set | Rated closers for fire doors

Timeline: 3-7 biz days spec-to-install; crew of 1

A Mississauga office PM was getting complaints about slamming lobby doors and corridor doors that would not latch on windy days. We fitted LCN closers sized to each door and set backcheck and latch speed, and the complaints stopped.

Hardware schedules built first, then installed: Rockwood, Trimco and Ives push/pull handles and plates, Schlage L9000 and Yale mortise locksets or cylindrical lever locks, 12/24VDC electric strikes and 1200lb mag-locks, all keyed to the building plan with matching satin stainless US32D or other finishes across every door. We check frame preps and door reinforcement before ordering so strikes line up and locks fit without field drilling. Most brands are sourced within 7 business days. Written CAD spec in 2 business days, install typically 5-10 business days from sign-off.

Includes: Hardware schedule first | Grade 1 locks and pulls | Electric strikes and mag-locks | Most brands sourced in 7 biz days

Commercial Access Control Installation

$1,500-$6,500

Credential access on commercial doors using Kantech readers and keypads with FOB credentials, with the door side handled end to end. Each door gets the right locking for its frame: an electromagnetic lock or a fail-secure electric strike, plus a request-to-exit sensor, a door position switch, a power supply and fire alarm release where the door is in a path of egress. A keyed bypass is included for power loss. The written spec includes a fail-safe and fail-secure schedule for every door, so building management and the fire inspector know exactly how each one behaves. Install typically 7-14 business days from sign-off.

Includes: Kantech readers and keypads | Mag-lock or strike per door | Request-to-exit and alarm release | Fail-safe / fail-secure schedule

Timeline: 7-14 biz days spec-to-install; crew of 2

A King West coworking operator added FOB access to eleven doors across two floors. We matched mag-locks or strikes to each frame, added request-to-exit and alarm release, and members switched over on a Monday with no lockouts.

AODA Handicap Door Operator Installation

[/aoda-door-operator-installation/ →](/aoda-door-operator-installation/)

$2,800-$5,500

Barrier-free door operators retrofitted on existing public entrances to the AODA Design of Public Spaces standards and OBC 3.8 barrier-free rules. Low-energy operators such as the Norton 5700 and LCN 9500 are mounted on sound doors, and push plate or bollard-mounted actuators go on both sides at reachable heights with clear approach space along the accessible path of travel. Opening force is tested and recorded before handover, so the entrance is ready for accessibility review. Clinics, community centres, churches, offices and plazas. Install typically 7-14 business days from sign-off.

Includes: Operator + push buttons both sides | Actuator height and clearance | Opening force tested | Review-ready documentation

Timeline: 7-14 biz days spec-to-install; crew of 2

A Bathurst Manor community clinic needed an operator with push buttons on both sides. We measured approach clearances, mounted bollard actuators at the right heights, tested opening force, and the accessibility review passed on the first visit.

Client Feedback

## What Clients Report About Our Hardware & Access Control Work

> "Push bar installed on our taproom exit. Solid and quiet."

Chris T. Brewery owner | The Junction, Toronto Push Bars

> "Von Duprin exit devices added to three existing steel doors. They fit the doors properly and the inspector had no notes."

Hassan B. Manufacturing plant manager | Woodbridge, Vaughan Push Bars

> "We standardized hardware across our suite during a refresh: lever sets, electric strikes on two doors and new push/pull handles at reception. They produced a hardware schedule first, sourced everything within a week, and installed over a weekend. The lever finish matches on every door, and the keying chart we received made handover to building security simple."
