System Integration: Connection to Access Control (Fobs) and Video Intercoms.
Commercial Locking Hardware Solutions
Every door type in NYC requires a specific locking mechanism to ensure security and code compliance.
Electric Strikes
The industry standard for office doors and retail storefronts.
How it Works: We replace the standard door strike plate with an electrified version. The door remains mechanically locked from the outside (secure) but releases the latch electrically when you press the buzzer.
Best For: High-traffic entrances where you want to maintain the aesthetic of a traditional door handle.
Durability: We install industrial-grade strikes tested to withstand over 1,000 lbs of static force.
Magnetic Locks
Modern NYC offices often feature frameless glass doors where cutting a strike is impossible.
How it Works: An electromagnet is mounted to the door header, bonding to an armature plate on the door with 1,200 lbs of holding force.
Safety Requirement: All maglock installations include a "Request-to-Exit" (REX) motion sensor and a pneumatic "Push to Exit" button to ensure staff can always leave freely.

Why We Only Install Hardwired Systems
Wireless signals cannot reliably penetrate NYC's steel beams, elevator shafts, and thick pre-war concrete. For business continuity, "hardwired" is the only option.
Zero Interference: Immune to the Radio Frequency (RF) noise that plagues wireless units in crowded city blocks.
Instant Response: No "wake up" lag. The millisecond you press the button, the door unlocks.
Maintenance Free: Power is drawn directly from your building’s electrical grid via a low-voltage transformer. No batteries to change.
Reception & Workflow Integration
We optimize how your staff manages visitors.
Under-Desk Release: A discreet stainless steel button mounted under the reception desk allows staff to unlock the door without breaking eye contact or stopping their work.
Desktop Video Master: A dedicated screen on the desk allows the receptionist to visually verify the visitor (via camera) before buzzing them in.
Remote App Control: For unmanned lobbies, we can route the buzzer signal to a smartphone app.
NYC Code Compliance (FDNY & ADA)
Improperly installed locks can result in heavy fines or dangerous liabilities. We ensure every installation meets local safety codes.
Fire Alarm Integration: We install a Fire Relay that connects your maglocks to the building's Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). If the fire alarm triggers, all doors unlock automatically for immediate egress.
ADA Accessibility: All release buttons and entry panels are mounted at the required 48-inch height for wheelchair accessibility.
Fail-Safe Configuration: Systems are designed to unlock automatically in the event of a total power failure (unless battery backup is requested).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How much does a commercial door buzzer installation cost in NYC?
The cost varies based on the door type and wiring distance. A standard hardwired commercial buzzer system with an electric strike typically starts around $1,500. More complex systems involving magnetic locks or video integration will vary. We provide free, transparent on-site estimates.
How long does a door buzzer installation take?
A standard single-door commercial installation typically takes one business day. This includes running wire, cutting the door frame for the strike, and mounting the release button.
Will the buzzer work if the power goes out?
Standard systems unlock (fail-safe) when power is lost. However, we can install a centralized Battery Backup Supply (UPS) to keep your door secure and operational for hours during a blackout.
Can you install a buzzer on an all-glass door?
Yes. We use specialized U-brackets to mount magnetic locks onto frameless glass doors without drilling into the glass itself.
