If you run a storefront, manage a building, or own a small business in Williamsburg or anywhere across Brooklyn, B & G Locksmith handles the full range of commercial lock and security work - from a single rekeyed deadbolt to a building-wide master key system. We operate out of the locksmith counter inside B & G Hardware at 210 Robeling St in Williamsburg, so you can walk in for hardware, keys, and advice without calling a dispatch center and waiting on a stranger.
What does commercial locksmith service in Williamsburg and Brooklyn actually cover?
Commercial lock work is a different animal from a standard residential job. The hardware is heavier, the stakes are higher, and the needs vary a lot by business type. Here is what we handle regularly for Brooklyn businesses:
- Master key systems - We set up and service master key systems using Schlage, Medeco, and Mul-T-Lock cylinders. A master key system lets a building super or landlord open every unit while each tenant has a key that only works on their own door.
- Rekeying and lock changes - Tenant turnover, employee changes, or a lost key are all good reasons to rekey. We rekey Schlage B-series, Yale, and Sargent commercial locks, and we replace worn or outdated hardware with ANSI Grade 1 locks built for commercial use.
- Rolling gate lock service - Storefronts across Williamsburg, Bushwick, and Bed-Stuy rely on rolling gates every day. We replace and service the rim locks and cylinders on commercial rolling gates, including Medeco and Mul-T-Lock cylinders for high-security applications.
- Access control installation - We install keypad and card-reader access control systems for offices, multi-tenant buildings, and retail spaces. This includes electric strikes, magnetic locks, and systems compatible with key fob or proximity card entry.
- Intercom and buzzer systems - We wire and replace intercom systems for commercial buildings across Brooklyn, including audio and video intercom units from brands like Aiphone and DoorBell Fon.
- Panic hardware and exit devices - Commercial buildings in NYC have specific code requirements for exit hardware. We install and service Von Duprin and Falcon panic bars and exit devices on commercial doors.
- High-security lock upgrades - If your current locks are basic pin tumbler cylinders, we can upgrade to Medeco M3 or Mul-T-Lock MT5+ cylinders, which resist picking, drilling, and unauthorized key duplication.
How does B & G Locksmith handle commercial jobs differently from a phone-only locksmith?
Most of what separates us from a dispatch-only locksmith service is the storefront itself. Our counter at 210 Robeling St in Williamsburg carries real inventory - Schlage, Medeco, Yale, and Mul-T-Lock hardware is on the shelf, not on a truck that may or may not show up. If you are a super in Greenpoint or a landlord in Bed-Stuy who needs a cylinder swapped out, you can come in, talk to the locksmith directly, and leave with the right part the same day.
For jobs we bring to you - rolling gate repairs, access control wiring, on-site rekeying - we already know Brooklyn's commercial building stock. We work in pre-war walkups in Williamsburg, newer mixed-use buildings in Downtown Brooklyn, and everything in between. We know which locks fail on older commercial doors and which hardware actually holds up in a high-traffic retail environment.
We also cut keys while you wait. If you manage a building and need duplicates of a restricted key or a standard commercial key, bring in your original and we handle it at the counter - no sending it out, no waiting days for a copy.
Which commercial locks and brands does B & G Locksmith recommend for Brooklyn storefronts and buildings?
The right hardware depends on the door type, the traffic level, and what kind of security you need. Here is how we generally break it down:
- Standard commercial deadbolts - Schlage B60N or B62N series for offices and lower-traffic commercial doors. Solid, widely available, and easy to rekey.
- High-security cylinders - Medeco M3 and Mul-T-Lock MT5+ for storefronts, pharmacies, or any location where key control matters. These cylinders cannot be duplicated without authorization.
- Mortise locks - Sargent 8200 series and Yale 8800 series mortise locks for heavy-use commercial doors. Common in Williamsburg and Downtown Brooklyn commercial buildings with steel or wood doors.
- Panic devices - Von Duprin 99 series and Falcon XX series for doors that require code-compliant exit hardware.
- Access control hardware - HES and Folger Adam electric strikes paired with keypad or fob readers for buildings that want keyless entry without replacing the full lock.
