Locksmith in Brantford

Brantford sits on the Grand River about 45 km south of our Kitchener store, downstream from Cambridge. It's a city of solid older neighbourhoods, a downtown core on the river, and a large industrial and logistics base along Highway 403. Most of our Brantford work is planned: a building that needs new hardware, a business that wants its keys under control, or a property that's changing hands.

Industrial and warehouse buildings

Brantford's business parks along Highway 403 are full of manufacturing, distribution and warehouse buildings, and their doors have a hard life. Overhead traffic, freight, weather and constant use wear out closers and hinges and knock exit devices out of adjustment. We supply and install commercial door hardware for those openings: panic bars and exit devices, heavy-duty closers, continuous hinges, weather strip, thresholds and door wraps. Where a door or frame is beyond repair, we supply and install hollow metal doors and frames, fire-rated or not, with insulation and lites as needed.

Large sites usually need key control as much as hardware. A master key system gives each department its own key while managers and maintenance staff carry masters, and access control with fobs or cards handles perimeter doors where staff change often. Henry Godinho of BLM Transportation Group wrote to us after two decades of work together:

We want you to know how pleased we are with the outstanding service you have given us over the last 20 years. We have recommended your company to others because of our satisfaction with your service. We look forward to doing business with you for years to come. (Henry Godinho, BLM Transportation Group)

Yards, gates and loading areas bring their own requests. Padlocks can be keyed alike, keyed different or keyed to the building key you already use, and camlocks secure cabinets, lockers and tool storage. For a site where staff share equipment, a set of padlocks on one key is often simpler than a ring of different ones.

Downtown Brantford

The downtown core around Colborne and Dalhousie streets mixes older commercial blocks with offices, shops and institutional buildings. Older storefront doors often need hardware that fits narrow stiles, which is where Adams Rite deadlocks and paddles come in. We also fit automatic door operators, from standard to heavy duty and high wind, with standard, wireless or touchless buttons, and supply barrier-free washroom kits for accessible washrooms.

Brantford homes

Neighbourhoods such as Eagle Place, Holmedale and Terrace Hill have many older houses, while West Brant, Shellard Lane and Wyndfield are newer. For homes, the usual work is a rekey after a purchase, new deadbolts and handlesets, or a keypad for the side or garage door. If you'd rather choose your hardware in person, our Kitchener store has deadbolts, knobs and levers, gripsets and keypads on display.

Safes for home and business

A safe is worth seeing in person before you buy, and our Kitchener store has them on the floor. We carry new and used safes in many sizes, from fire-rated models for documents to burglary-rated ones for cash and valuables, including Centinel safes.

Booking work in Brantford

Brantford is a longer drive than the Tri-City, so the more you can tell us about the doors before the visit, the better. Call 519-894-7055 during store hours (Monday to Thursday, 8 am to 5 pm, and Friday, 8 am to 4 pm) or request a quote with a description of the doors and what you need.
